HIGH SCHOOL NOTES

Report cards for the first term of
six weeks were issued on Wednesday.
These scholarship and attendance re-
ports are sent home at the end of each
term. They should be carefully stud
led by the parents, for they are de-
tailed report on the progress that each
pupil is making. Any failure, that
is a standing marked incomplete, or
below rs should receive immediate at
tention. The parents should arrange
to confer at once with the principal
and teachers, so that the cause may
be removed, and final failure prevent
ed. Nothing discouraged a pupil so
quickly as failure. The prompt work
at this time may prevent many fail
ures later in the year.
