Federal securities by law may be

The treasury refused to accept

when the fall term starts Weakley
said, something that we feel cer-
tain will please parents and which
we know will be popular with the
pupils. II became necessary to dis
continue these classes a number of
years ago, their loss being greatly
regretted by the faculty and pupils.
In the cooking school we propose
to give the pupils actual cooking
experience by having them pre-
pare food for the school cafeteria,
using the latter as sort of a labora-
tory for the cooking class. OF
course the work will be under the
supervision and instruction of
trained economies teachers and we
will take care to see that the
menus do not suffer because of
the fact that noyices, so to speak,
will be doing much of the work.
We believe the actual experience in
preparing essential foods, will be
much more beneficial to the pupils
than limiting them to fancy des-
serts and simple recipes.
THE excellent condition of the
school system is due to the splen-
did cooperation of the board of
trustees" Weakley said, "all of
them having a keen interest in ev-
cry phase of school work, and hav-
ing as their objective, giving the
children of El Centro the finest in
education consistent with efficiency
and economy. With the superin-
tendent and the teachers they are
striving to make the schools fit the
children instead of, as in the old
days, compelling the pupil to fit
the school,"
Members of the school board are
