contest in the Fredariksted Junior High
School to be held this evening, The atten-
ton Of readers is invited to this contest
which to our mind represents one of the
most rational methods of encouraging
school work among pupils. There is
nothing that animdtes the growing boy
or girl to push ahead in his or her studies
as the knowledge that he or she is being
compared with some other boy or girl.
These contests are not merely scholastic
tests giving a theoreti. result, bar they
form the actual groundwork for the cul-
t~ivatiOn of ambition which every teacher
or parent knows is absolutely essential in
the child that is to reflect credit on his
tuition and home training. The present
contest is confined to the students OF the
trederiksted Junior High School and is
IN a measure exemplary of his ambition.
The general admission charge is 40 cents
for adults and 20 cents for children.
Tickets will be sold at the gate of
the West End Movies where the contest
will be held. His Honor Judge Nc Kean
has consented to act as Chairman for
the Debate, and Lawyers Noll and Curry
and DR.. Canega'a have been selected
to act as Judges. 1t is to be hoped that
