Tii’A seemed the most practical way out of the difficulty, occasipp ed by the burning of the colored school building By persuing this course th’’-graduating class would hr enabled to finish its work on time, whi'e the b'her grades c uld be taught on into the. summer moiitns and make up the lost lime.

Not only so, but often in unfa vorable weather, girls and buys standing on the streets in the cold and damp waiting for the schooj doors to open, sustain serious inju ry t» health.

I beg all parents to give promp and full attention to this matter. The health and morals of your children will be promoted if they are trained to leave and return home at certain hours, prevent delays on the s'reets whrcn expose them at once to bad weath er and worse associates.
