parent thinks his is just one case: actually many parents each year request that students be excused earlier that special examinations be given, etc. Effective this year, any student leaving early CT before the regular dismissal time will be permitted to go if the parent SC desires, but the examinations will be given upon the return tc school the following fall No early exam inatiors will be given.
 Eallv Dismis-al
 Students often request earlier dismissals to go to work for the canneries, road work, survey crews. etc. Such requests, when present. cd in writing will be granted if evidence shows a need for it. But no credits will be given the stu dent for the semester's work until he has taken his examinations the following fall. No special exami- nations will be given as they are a definite hardship cn the teach CT and the student In some eases when a special examination has been given and the student failed in it, the complaint was made that it was unfair. No complaint is Nade if the student passes the eXamina- tion. This is one of the reasons why teachers dislike giving carly examinations as they prefer that all students take the same examina : tion. In this way, tho exam is fair to all students.
 Students should have tennis shoes for use exclusively in the gymnas- iUms The Juneau School author ities have endeavored for years to keep their gym floors in excellent condition. Students wearing ordl- nary street shoes on the flcor for play purposes cut the flocr to pieces in a short time Even street shoes with rubber or composition soles are not suitable because of grit and sand that gets into the soles from walking atout the streets Parents ne-d not buy expensive shoes for gym purposes, as the ordinary ten his shoe will suffice Gym suits should also be provided as well as a clean towel once in a while. We urge parents to be sure th1t tennis shoes, gym suits, towels, etc, te plainly marked with the students name or initials. If the shoes are black, use white ink. or sew the initials in with white threat The name or initials should he cn the outside of the shoe.
