The night school for foreigners c
which was organized recently held the '
; ' first session last evening at the Miller (
v * school and was conducted by Princi- .
pal Ralph Beckner and his corps of J
teachers.
The school started off with.an enrollment
of 28. Most of the foreigners
who enrolled in the school are young
men, though some five or six women
v were also enrolled. ?
The branches which seem to have J:
the preference among the students ,
>v are English, spelling, penmanship and '
;v arithmetic. The school will meet next
Wednesday evening at 7:20 o'clock
and only one session will be held
weekly for the present, though it may
be decided later to hold another one (l

The young men and women enroll- t
!- - ?d are of the more intelligent class of ?
foreigners and alKof them seem en- i
tbuslastlc and eager to master the o
: . common school branches. Several t
married men were among those en- 0
