mo School" Signal

The mo school, signal which was
blown at $50 Monday evening to no
tify the teachers and students that
there would be no night school. to-
gether with the usual whistle which
is blown at Z o'clock on the first
Monday of the month, gave rise to
the idea that there had been two

is seldom that the no school whistle
is blown now and people are not ac-
customed to it, especially when it
has a bearing on the night school.
