HARPER'S MAGAZINE leads again in
short' stories of distinction! Mr. Edward
J. O'Brien, the distinguished critic, whose
annual discussion of the short stories of the year
has becomea feature of The Boston Transcript,
gives Harper's Magazine once more the place of
honor for printing a higher percentage of
original sfcort stories of the highest class than
any of the large number of magazines considered.
There are many striking examples of these
"little masterpieces" in the current March num
ber, including a detective story of a new sort.
And there are articles that you cannot afford to
miss, especially a stirring chapter from Uncle
Joe Cannon's reminiscences and the first illus
trated, understandable article on the much
discussed Einstein Theory a scientific article
clearly and simply presented.

adopted by the llaugh Close Communi

in tlio form of u petition, will be pre
sented to the board of education at its
next meeting.
The two Ilaiigh -Close schools were
described as old and Insnnltnry in the
petition. "The rain leak' tbough the

with bricks, so badly in need of repair
that it is full of puddles on stormy

John II. Cassel. superintendent of
school buildings, while admitting , the
building to be old und n '.'little out of

"The school is no worse than a hun
