Instrumental Music Teacher
Mr.. G. Allen Conn of New Lex
ington has been employed by the M.
& M. board of education to teach
instrumental music to any grade or
high school students coming to our
schools. There will be no charge to
any pupil except for music and mu-
sical instruments. Glasses will be
held each Saturday and any pupil
interested should enroll at once by
seeing Mrs. Edwards, or by calling
the school office. This service was
offered last year, and a number of
pupils availed themselves of the op-
portunity to get classes free, and
many pupils of last years class have
already been enrolled in the band.
School closed tomorrow (Friday)
because of the fair.
Notes
At recent meeting the M. & NJ.
board of education passed resolu-
tion that there be no freshmen in
Iitiations or initiation of pupils into
any clubs except under the direct
supervision of the high school fac
lulty and the school administrators.
IL no case viii any physical puniah-
ment be tolerated or any pranks be
permitted that would do damage to
clothing. Any pupil not strictly ad-
herring to this ruling may be dis
missed Immediately from school.
The board and school faculty trust
that they may have the fullest CO.
operation of pupils and parents in
practice that has been carried too
far in number of cases the past
years. Schools and fraternities are
everywhere passing rules against
any form of hazing. The practice is
out of date, SO why be behind the
times in our own school?
The NJ. & NJ. board of education
has ruled that any post graduate
student of the NJ & NJ school may
enroll for further work without
charge, regardless of whether they
live within the boundaries of the M.
& NJ. district. Pupils from other
schools wishing additional work in
our high school will have to pay full
tuition costs
