The corps of teachers have each been trained in the work they are to do, and it is believed the year will be among the most successful and profitable.

Drawing books from Nos. one to eight have been adopted for the grades, and Walsh ' s Primary Arithmetic has been placed in the four lower grades, the higher books of the same series having been already used above the fourth grade.

The interior of the house has been renovated and repaired, having in mind the health and safety of the children, and everything is neat and attractive.

It is the desire of the authorities that every pupil commence promptly at the beginning of the term and that the attendance be as regular as possible.

Promptness and application is what is desired, and if parents will see to the former, the teacher will endeavor to attend to the latter, and all will be well.
