Boy Students
Rushing Studies
AsSchool Nears

School is about to start again.
Boys are coming back from their
vacations ready to take UP their
text books; again ready for a
struggle to gain on the grade
ahead Are you prepared? Here
is where something will come to
the surface.
Hundreds of boys went to
summer school where they re-
ceived valuable instructions in
their lessons for the grade in
which they were going to. They
will go back to school prepared
in every way to give their best
and they will receive their re-
ward for giving up some of their
play time by getting better
marks. The teachers will know
who wasted his time and who
made good Use of 1t. At the end
Of the year you can notice that
nine out of ten boys who went
to summer school or studied
during his vacation time will
be on the promotion list.
OF course 1t 10 the privilege
Of boys to spend their vacations
as they please. Outdoor exer-
cises are well enough. But that
does not mean that mental ex-
ercises must be dropped until
school opens again. The boys
who have left their books alone
throughout the summer will find
that their marks won't be as
good as their parents desire.
They will feel like being out in
the open all the time, fishing
or something like that. No boy
will be hurt by taking a book
or two along and giving 1t an
occasional glance during his va
cation period. He will find that
he will be prepared much better
than the boy who played all
summer.
