The
custom,
pleasant to think of, has been found
more difficult to adopt than was im

Half a dozen members of the class
have, however, achieved considerable
success in their novel undertaking

OUTLOOK GOOD IN
MOSCOW SCHOOLS
REPORT OF SUPERINTENDENT
RANDALL SHOWS HEALTHY
CONDITION.
Total Enrollment for Last Mouth Was
1149—Semester Just Closed
Last Week,
The growth of the Moscow public
schools still continues according to the
last report of Superintendent Otis
Randall to the board of trustees which
has just become available. The report
shows the enrollment for the mouth
ending December 19 of 556 boys and
593 girls or a total enrollment of 1149.
The average number belonging for the
month was 1094.9. The percentage for
the month was 96.75, The number who
were neither absent nor tardy for the
four months ending at that time was
319, 147 of whom were boys and 172
were girls.
High School Enrollment,
The enrollment of the high school
was 265. The average number belong
ing for the mouth was 249.5. The
number neither absent nor tardy since
September 1 was 51. With the admis
sion of the mid-year class this year
the enrollment should exceed 300 next
semester.
At the present time there are 19
grade teachers in the school system.
This number of teachers handled on
an average 44.5 pupils each
for the month of December. This
means a heavy congestion in many
places.
Average Pupils I« Teacher 25.
In high school there are five male
teachers and six women. The domestic
science teacher and the manual instruc
tor give part time to the grades. Al
lowing for this the average number of
pupils to each teacher in the high
school is about
Some teachers
meet as high as 170 pupils daily. All
science teachers meet much fewer than
this.
Last week closed the semester and
the teachers and pupils have been
busy with examinations. AH honor pu
pils were excused Tuesday morning.
The Grade Examinations Postponed.
The grade examinations were post
poned one week as the state examlna
tion for the eighth grade is set for
tills week.' In as much as the 7A
grade has to take an examination In
geography and the SB takes physiology
and the promotion in those grades
would necessarily be delayed it was
thought better to postpone the examin
aliens in tlie grades and make tlie cx
aminations and promotions uniform as
time,
Under the new law all pupils taking
state examinations must
come to
some center and Miss Bryden, county
superintendent, anticipates that there
he about 60 taking the eighth
grade examination this week, forty of
whom will be from the Moscow city
schools. Miss Mattie Lou Boardman,
who lias charge of the eighth grade
during the semester, will have charge
of tlie pupils from the local schools
during the examinations.

A Carload of Page Spring Steel Woven
Wire Fence has Arrived Direct
From the Factory
!
We now have a complete stock of Six Sizes of hog, sheep and stock fence.
One size in particular we especially recommend.
That is the 10-28 Special, Pig, Hog, and Sheep Fence, 28 inches high 10
wires, which is being used more and more by the farmers of this section.
PAGE Fence is made of spring steel, and both line wires and cross wires are
continuous, and are actually woven the one with the other. This makes it so
strong that no properly stretched piece of Page Fence ever yet sagged or bagged
until its supports gave way, no matter how long erected nor how used.
The price of this 10-28 Special Hog and Sheep fence is 35 Cents per rod.
Because we buy direct from the factory in car loads we can make you such a
price for this size fence. For cash we allow you a 5 per cent discount from the
price.
Wherever you put up Page Fence your fence troubles are over.
