They had a terrible time learning their a b c's, but after a time they had mastered them and all of the school rules too. They studied diligently until, as time passed by, they passed from grade to grade, receiving honors and merits. Each year brought new pupils, new studies, teachers and different books. They got into some scrapes Page Twenty-one

It is the train- ing received here that will mean so much to the beginning high school student. Here he is prepared for higher mathematics, here he makes the beginning for a more advanced and extensive study of English, here he gets the first glimpse of a systematic study of science and in short is prepared for the broader development made possible by a high school education. This department has been larger in number of students this year than hereto- fore. It has been ranging from fifteen to twenty but with consolidation has increased to forty. With a minimum number of failures this will be a good feeder for the high school and in a few years we hope to find aifsenior high school much larger than it is at present. fi Mr. Cahall has had charge of these grades for the past folg years. Next year they will be combined with the upper four years in a departmental plan of teaching. Under this plan a teacher will teach one subject from the seventh grade throughout the four years of senior high school. This is a much more efficient system and should obtain more satisfactory results since it makes it pos- sible to get someone who is especially trained in a particular field of teaching.
