scHnnL REPORT CARDS

For the second time, report cards have been issued to the students in Wrangell Public School. Cards are given every six weeks. The second six weeks has just been completed and only one more remains before the mid-year examinations which are given every January.
 Grades are recorded by letters A" is excellent, or 93 percent to 100 percent; B" is good, or 85 percent to 92 percent; "C" is fair, from 77 percent to S4 percent; ID" is poor, from 70 percent to 76 per cent, and "F' means failure. These grades are based upon ability in daily work and in tests. A grade below C. usually means that more attention should be given to the sub ject. This is usually the main req son for low grades, but in other cases the student does not under stand the work given him.

ENGLISH CLASSES TAKE TESTS

Grades eight to tWleve inclusive recently were given a standard test in English to find out the students special needs in spelling, punctua- tion, grammar, sentence construc- ton, and parts of speech. Also the tests show how the Wrangell stu dents compare with those of other schools.
 The test is given in a series of three The first test is to be taken at the beginning of the year with out drill; the second test will be given after drill soon after the be- ginning of the second semester, and the third test at the end of the year The second and third tests are not a repetition of test one, but involve the same fundamentals.

SPORTS

The Instructor should be the first thought in basketball this year, for IS you all know there had to be a change. MT. Moe, who is taking over all athletic activities, has been very efficient and thorough in everything lie uas undertaken so far. He is pop ular with his pupils and is getting a good turnout for basketball.
 The Basketball Boys look forward to some very close games with out siders and expect to play Hills Milf tary Academy during Christmas va cation possibly the 27th.
 Another outstanding subject in school for the pupils is Physical Ed ucation, in which they seem to be improving. Many grades that were C's, last six weeks are now As and B's. Physical Ed includes a number of sports. such as seeker baseball, American ball, volIey ball, seeker ball, softball (indoor basebalD, a small amount of basketball, and hand ball.

" MuMPS

Cyanche parotidaea, commonly called "the mumps", is an infec- t(ous disease characterized by in flamatory swelling of the jaw, ire quently occurring as an epidemic, and affecting mostly the younger persons. The name humps is de- rived from the old English express sion ito mump", inspired no doubt, by the patients appearance. The disease is generally caused by a cold and is announced by the stiffening and swelling of the back of the jaw. The swelling increases in size and spreads under the jaw, causing much disagreement Pain is present in the swollen part but is seldom se- we're. However, one is bothered con siderably when eating This disease possibly lasts from four to five days, and then the swollen parts are soon restored to their normal condition.
 Mumps is in general a mild disease and requires little treatment beyond a gentle laxative and applications of warm congresses to the swollen and painful parts. the use of soft foods and rest.
 As it now happens, number of pupils of the school have been un- dergoing a vacation at home be- cause of an epidemic of the humps.

ESSENTIALS IN COURTESY

There are several things in cour- tesy that I lack, and the only way can correct my mistakes is to try to remember the things I should do to be courteous and practice them when people are around. Four things l should improve in are:
 1.-Avoid eavesdropping.
 2.-Cultivate clear, well modul- ated voice.
 3.-Make a courteous response if statement is not clear.
 1. Walk quietly into a room.

A NEW SET OF PICTURES

This year can be seen in the back of the English room a set of eight
 productions of well-known paint
 ags "a gift of the graduating class of '36. AS yet few have noticed the sign accompanying the pictures which reads Color Reproduc- tions of Eight Paintings from the Andrew Mellon Collection - fit i the Class of 1886" and have just casually glanced at the pictures and have gotten nothing out of them. Few students have shown any in- terest as yet, but since Miss Hard ing remarked about them there might be more interest.

BASKETBALL

Our coach is MT. Moe, and we practice every night. Unless some thing breaks or happens, we will not practice any more this week, as the floor is being sanded and re- finished
 The players come in right after school and spend about half an hour warming up. This is done by Hay in shots. The different plays are then practiced for about an hour and a half, after which we are told to take or make a certain number of foul shots. Then comes the showers.

The eighth grade English class is helping Miss Shields do the neces- sary Library work. The boys and girls spent many hours earlier in the fall assisting in the work of making a complete inventory.

dents, principals. teachers, school boards. and newspapers.
 The child who attends school slA hours a day for 157 days (the av- erage) is in school for only 9A2 hours a year. Allowing 10 hours for sleep, the child's S65 days are dis tributed as follows: 1O.7 percent la school, AT percent in sleep, and 476 percent under home supervl- sion.
 This analysis of the school child's time emphasizes the responsibility of the home, the school, and commun= ity institutions for his all-round eds ucation. Since the time that the child spends in school is exceeding ly short compared with his whole time. it is essential that his every moment be used to the best possible advantage. Here are some of the ways that you can help your child succeed in school.
 ARRANGE the breakfast and lunch hours so that there is noI rushing at home or to school.
 ENCOURAGE punctuality and att tendance, not permitting trifles toI interfere.
 SEE THAT the children are dress ed simply, neatly. modestly, and suitable in accordance with the weather.
 IN S HST upon children under fourteen having at last ten hours of sleep.
 FIND OUT how much time should be devoted to home work, and see that it is done.
 PROVIDE a quiet place for home study, with good light and ventna- tion. Prevent interruptions as far as possible
 SHOW AN interest in the child ren's school work and other actiyi- ties.
 VISIT the classroom for a better understanding of conditions.
 DO NOT CRITICIZE the teachers or school at all within the child rens hearing. Always hear both sides of every question and ask the teacher about it.
 INSTILL in the children habits of obedience and respect for auth ority.
 PICTURE the school as a happy desirable place, rather than as one children should dread.
 KEEP IN MIND that the school offers unlimited opportunities to those who take advantage to them. parents as well as pupils.

Now what do you think of that?
Wasn't it terrible? To bite his own
mother like that? Just look at my
arm. Black and blue, and almost cut
through. Imagine! I slapped him
thoroughly. Maybe he will not try
that again"
But he did, and not long afterward.
He was in an affectionate mood, COO
ing and gurgling, talking about his
doggie, his dinner, his dear mumnie.
and then he bit her. Again she slapped
him. But this time she was deeply

he human? Was he going to be
vicious?
Don't be silly, Caroline He was

bit you out Of sheer JOY in your
presence. Babies his age sometimes
do that

at his gums. Rub them with vad

Many little children take a bite now

Or their gums hurt. Or there is some
lack in their diet. Study the cause
and do your best to remove it. The
