tinues to grow and still the demand
for teachers who are graduates can
not be filled. There were 133 grad
uates this year and when the school
board in this city was looking for

well for the institution when their
graduates are so readily placed.

opens a bank account and gradually builds up both his
account and his credit. If you begin now it will bring

designed
to meet the
needs of such students as had in
tended to enter business college.
The board is also making every
possible
effort to introduce work
in typewriting and shorthand, in
the event that a sufficient number
of students elect these subjects.
Students who have completed
the common school and desire a
good practical elementary business
course, would do well to give the
Washburn schools a trial rather
than go elsewhere, as the commer
cial course offered in our schools
will include all that will be of prac
tical use and which can be learned
elsewhere in the same length of
time. This work will not be open
to eighth grade pupils, as the work
of the eighth grade is sufficiently
heavy without the addition of any
extraneous work.
Systematic work will be done in
athletics and for the coming months
basketball will perhaps be the cur
rent sport. Some of the lady mem
bers of the faculty have bad con
siderable experience along this line
and one in particular has done
work in coaching girl*' teams. It
is to be hoped that, girls as well a8
boys will avail themselves of the
opportunity for athletic work and
there is no reason why our schools
cannot develop a good girls' ath
letic club. It may be of interest
to the boys to know that Prin. H.
T. Parker has done considerable
athletic work and coached the Vel
va high school biys' btsketball
and baseball teams last season.
Any student desiring to com
plete the full four year high school
course can do so in Washburn and
it is to be hoped that some at
least will avail themselves of this
opportunity. Students can make
no more profitable investment than
a full high school education, and
it might be well to state that cred
its in commercial branches will
count the same us other subjects
towards securing a high school
diploma.
It is to be hoped that all pat
rons will make occasional visits to
the school, aud thus do all in their
power towards making the present
school year a successful one.
