BY
Mrs. Juliet Marion Stanley Warren
Ring Easter bells! for Christ is risen;
He reigns in realms on high;
Ring Easter bells. send peal on peal
Up through the vaulted Sky.
Ring Easter bells. the Lord is risen;
The tidings glad proclaim;
Ring Easter bells. let Nature sing
And glorify His name.
Ring Easter bells. the message send
That Christ is risen today. q.
Ring Easter bells! let Heaven and
earth
His sovereign will obey.
Ring Easter bells! Gethsemane's sweat
And Calvarys cross are DER:
Ring Easter bells. for Joseph's tomb
Holds the crucifled Lord no more
Ring Easter bells! on Olivet's height
He bids His friends farewell;
Ring Easter bells. to His Heavenly
Home
He scars fore'er to dwell.
Ring Easter bells! let the welllin ring
With notes of music sweet:
Ring Easter bells! let angels kneel
And worship at His feet.

Mr.. Leigh recalled the success of a
similar contest held last year, when

Taking the population increase ac-
cording to the drawing proportional

Is true.
1t Is interesting to note that the
first real upward trend started around
1915, when the automobile became a
familiar sight. New law violators
were created and court revenues be-
gan to mount. With the advent of
prohibition the line upward obtained
additional momentum.

Little progress can be made by
school authorities toward organiza-
tion Of the new department of school
attendance until the director is ap-
pointed. In the meantime the ofl-
cials will make a study of the census
recording systems used in Joliet, ILL.,,
and other cities which have compul-
sorry school attendance and school
census laws.
Plans have been made by school
officials to hold a competitive exami-
nation of candidates for the position S
