that the increase of student enroll

This ambition on the part of

Of about 100000 girls and 5000

enrolment of girls taking these
courses in grades 5, 6, z, and of the

Also, this bishop em parked on a mis- sionary journey to Vinland in 1121.
 Another matter, however, which is still the subject of some controversy is the connection between the Morse dis covery of America and the subsequent rediscovery by Columbus.
