for a summer program, which will consist of field trips and botany and biology work at all the local play grounds. During the winter season the instructor has special days for schools to visit the museum and also makes visits himself to local grammar schools and delivers lec- lures.
 The following recommendation of the school house committee in con- nection with a new auxiliary print ing shop at Leavenworth High school was passed by the board yesterday:
 "The increased enrolment at Leavenworth High school has caus- ed classes in the printing course to be so large that the individual attention necessary is impossible. Moreover production which has al- ways been an important part of the printing shop program has almost wholly ceased.
 Your committee recommends, therefore, that it be authorized to equip an additional room at Leav- enWorth High school as an auxiliary printing shop to provide suitable instruction and also restore produc- tlon to its former standing"
