Last May the enrolment was GAL.
Since many Of the children have not
yet returned to school we may ex-
pect that the enrolment this year
will be considerably more than that
Of last year.
The Department is the most
crowded place in the whole school
system. The enrolment in the De-
partment exceeds hat OF the High
School while the High School is
much better prepared to handle its
enrolment than Is the department.
1t is only a question Of time. and a
short time at that, until it will be
necessary 70 take over the present
High School and use it for a Junior
High School and build a new Senior
High School.
The Lions Club of Rawlins will
entertain the faculty OF the Rawlins
schools at a social dance to be held
at the dance pavilion at Fort Steele
on Thursday evening of this week.
The South Ward School was
opened on Wednesday of this week
with an enrolment Of 10 pupils. A
census taken south Of the railroad
this summer showed that there were
80 pupils OF school age in that Sec
ton of town. AS soon as 1t becomes
generally known that the South Ward
school is now open, we expect the
rest Of the children to report for
school.
The enrolment in the kindergarten
has now reached 40. which is too
large a group to handle at n time.
We are therefore compelled to follow
the practice of man, other schools
and divide the kindergarten into two
divisions-a morning group and an
afternoon group, which will give each
child a halliday session. Each ses-
sion will be heightened somewhat so
as to give the child a longer period
than he now receives in the halliday
session. We feel that this plan will
be batter than the full-day session
for a large group as the smaller
group can be handled more effective
ly and each child will receive more
individual attention.

BOY SCOUTS, Tanned
AND HAPPY, RETURN
FROM CAMP ROTARY
THiRTY.Slx BONZED YOUNG
STEERS CONCLUDE TEN DAYS
OUTING AT CAMP ROTARY
TENTS TO BE REMOVED.

Thirty.six tanned, happy and heal
thy boys arrived home yesterday af-
ternoon from Camp Rotary after ten
days of the best camping that any
boy ever wished for. All were glad to
be home but they hated to leave the
camp which, in their opinion, was
next door to heaven. The Scouts
were brought home in caravan of au-
tomobiles under the command of Lee
Carroll, Of the Chamber of Commerce.
The return of the boys marks the
end of very successful camping sea-
son supplied by the Ottawa Rotary
club, There were sixty.six boys TAX
en- care of at the camp, over which
were new members of the Boy Scouts.
That makes a total of sixty-six boos-
tiers for the organization and for the
camp next year. The men in charge
OF the scout movement feel. even II
they are only starting, that they have
the Scout movement firmly establish
ed in Ottawa
The leaders of the scouts intend to
carry the work out on through the fall
and winter. There will be hikes and
outdoor games during the fall and in
door baseball and scout tests that can
be taken insiGe TO keep the boys busy
during the winter. The Scout mas
ters intend to have three or four big
troops this winter compared with the
two small ones that made up Ottawa S
Boy Scouts last year.
! All the time that was spent at camp
was not taken up in play. There was
much time taken to give the boys
such training as would help to make
them better citizens. Too much praise
can not be given to the men who or
iginated and carried through the idea
and the 500 or more people who visit
ed the camp know what a big job it
was and to what perfection the plans
were carried out.
