of the v illage. The grounds containing nearly fifty ever¬ green and maple trees, can not he surpassed in beauty by any in the state. The building is a two story brick, containing six large, well lighted rooms be¬ sides library room and basement. The school contains four departments, prima- r y , intermediate, grammar, and high school. After this year the arrangement of the departments will he as follows:— The primary, interme¬ diate, and grammar departments will oc¬ cupy the three lower rooms, and the high school the three up¬ per rooms. The pri¬ mary department will consist of the chart class, grade one, and two; the intermediate, grades three, four, and five; grammar, grades six, and seven; the high school pre¬ paratory and high school, grades eight, nine, ten, eleven and twelve. This arrangement relieves the lower de¬ partments of one grade and places the entire high school on the upper floor. Our high school will continue in charge of three regu¬ lar teachers qualified for high school work. The primary, inter¬ mediate, and gram¬ mar rooms are well equipped with maps, charts, globes, supple¬ mentary readers, ref¬ erence books, diction¬ aries, and other arti¬ cles necessary for good school work. O u r high school equipment is second to none in the county outside of Kalamazoo high school. We have a chemical labo¬ ratory supplied with all the chemicals nec- eosary for tin one year elementary laboratory course as outlined by Wil¬ liams’ chemistry, and a good supply of retorts, receiv¬ ers, and other apparatus necessary for carrying on the CHEMICAL LABORATORY.
