Achievement Contests"
Of Co. Schools Decided

The Achievement Contests" held
in the Annapolis Grammar School on
Friday, June 8, were a great success
from the standpoint of attendance
and enthusiasm on the part of the
children and the teachers, as we'll as
from the excellence of the work done.
Medals were awarded to the chill
dren who came ont first in the var
ious tests. Some went to the Rural
School children and some went to the
Graded School children.
When the points made by 10th
groups are compared, the Graded
School group, which includes our
four consolidated schools, stands at
the head by 124 points, but since
there were four absences in the
Rural School group the only fair way
. to compare. is by the average num-
Der of points.
The average for the Rural School
! Group is II 9-26 points and for the
Graded School Group is 81 9-41
;, points.
