and the way in which he IS
bounding his ball club into de.

lash of d tongue that has

They say that John is soaring his

NORMAL. INCREASE
 SHOWN THIS YEAR
 BY PUBLIC SCHOOL

Showing a gain of more than fifty per cent over the year 1924 25, the enrolment of the Juneau Public schools totals 524 students, w. K. Keller, Superintendent of Schools, said today. Of this num- Der, 126 are in the high school and 398 in the grammar school.
 Since the opening day the high school has gained three students and the grammar school eight. En- rollment by grades this morning was as follows:
 Kindergarten, 33; first grade, AT; second, 46; third, 37; fourth, 60; fifth, 43; sixth, A; seventh, A; eighth, 39.
 Last year at the same date the schools had 5O1 students, 113 in high school and 333 in the gram mar school.
 Records at MT Keller's office show that total enrollments in 1920, 1921, 1922 and 1923 were 295, 312, 359 and 335, respectively. During the last five years enrolment fig ures at the end of the second week of school have been 361, APO, 446, 510 and sol, respectively.
 That the enrolment this year would pass the 600 mark is the be- lief expressed by MT. Keller today. Never before have the figures dur ing the opening weeks of school been as large as this year, he added.
 Since Mir. Keller came to Juneau in 1923 the school enrolment has approximately TO per cent. The biggest increase for any one year was 1927-29, when the enroll ment jumped 90 students, due, MT. Keller believes, to the construction of the Juneau Cold Storage Plant, which brought a number of fisher men and their families to Juneau.
