clean lately" they said, but it
most certainly is not 'unusualI"
And then it was discovered
that the composing room had
set senior co-eds" instead Of
senior cords" meaning the
corduroy trousers worn as

Well. anyway. We didn't

SECOND SCHOOL
SEMESTER TO
OPEN JAN. 28
Officials Work to Avoid
Confusion in Promotion
of Pupils.

With the change of hundreds of
pupils from the ga grade to the first
year of high school, Charles F. Mil
Ter, city superintendent Of schools,
has stressed the Importance Of elm
mating the "break" between the
grades and high school.
For this reason, graduating exer-
cises should be simple, brief, and
as formal as possible. They should
reflect the regular work of the
school, but need not provide place
on the program for every member
of the class. They should entail no
expense to the pupil" Miller said.
Teachers are comforting with
principals with reference to promo
ton Of students to high school.
Special Investigations are being
made in doubtful cases.
Pupils usually can take four
credits from the grades to high
school, one each in English algebra,
Latin and civics. All credits depend
in part on the pupils rating in abil-
ity and is the consensus of depart
mental teachers and principal
The second semester begins Jan.
%, and changes in grades will be
made Jan. 25, when children will
remain in school until noon. Sale
of books will start either of the two
days.
Grade students entering high
school will report at the building of
their selection at 1870 p. m. Jan. %.
1t will be unnecessary for these
pupils to have transfer and promo
ton cards.
Preparations are being made TO
care for mid-year freshmen at high
schools. Organizations of upper
classmen will take the freshmen in
charge and show them to their
classes. Special instructions will be
issued as to books and other school

SECOND SAT T s
COMBINATION
BREAKS

Hammering open one safe
and knocking the combination
off another in an unsuccess-
full effort to pry open its
door, robbers obtained $3.50 in
the store of the Stevens and
French Tile Company, in the
2400 block Sherman Ave. N.
w., early today.
One of the safes was evidently
forced open with an iron bar after
the combination had been ripped
away. Numerous marks bore evil
dence to efforts made to smash
open the other safe.
Edward Stevens, of the 1900 block
Varnum st. N. w, the manager,
found the office in disorder when
he arrived to open it for business
today.
Entrance had been gained by
forcing open a rear door.
Police made photographs of fin
ger-prints found on the safes, They
hope these will lead to the arrest
of the robbers.
