Pawnee Bill's Circus. How many of us are there, who have not upon returning from a circus, with a splitting headache, soiled clothes and painful eyes, registered a vow that we would never attend another circus ? Many of us have kept it. The sicken ing odor from the menagerie, the un-coajfortabjubom-fl seats, tho vain at tempt to gfvot our attention on two or rra4'irg8 at tho same time, tho un- earaWe heat that all enclosed tents are bound to draw and retain and the sweltering rnabS of humanity under the tent produce- this, and on many oc casions, more serious illness. With the Pawnee Bill Historical Wild West and Great Far East which will exhibit at Brookville on Tuesday, May 23, all this is overcome.

Sinyb the close of the schools some of the parents have come to me for ex planation with reference to the promo tion' of their children. Some of the teachers likewise report similar exper loces. In order that all may under stand as eleiirlv m nnxnlhlo the nrinci- , , pies of promotion and classification, I fleem it wise to make this public ex planation. What I shall say will per tain only to the first eight grades of the school, not including the two grades in Room 13 and the three grades of Room 14. On account of crowded condition of the lower grades for the past two years It has been necessary to have two rooms doing the same grade of work. Last year rooms 2 and 3 were doing first grade work; rooms 4 and 5 second grade; rooms 6 and 7 third grade. Next year it will be necessary to have two rooms doing fourth grade work. Now this ne cessitates the opening of another room parallel with room eight. The extra room however, to bo furnished will be In the basement. The two basement room's will represent the first grade work for next year. Rooms 3 and 4 will be occupied with second grado work, 5 and 6 with thiru grade work, and 7 and 8 with fourth grade work. In all of the eight grades oach room will have three classeB, designated tho A, B and C classes. In the promotion of pupils the strongest of each grade were promoted to the A class of the next grado, those not quite so strong to tho B class, and those who were weakest and yet worthy of advancement to the C class. On this basis of promotion where two rooms were doing the same work, some pupils were retained in the same room, though they were promoted to tho next grade of work. Rooms 3, 5 and 7 next year will have work one grade higher than that done the year that has just closed. No pupils who were worthy of promotion have been held back, even though they will be in the same room another year. The raising of the grado of the rooms men tioned above causes soma of the pupils to remain in the same room two years. The object of making three classes in the same room is for the purpose of hot ter teaching by reason of smaller classes. A further end is that the bright pupils may not be held back in their classes or grades when thoy can do hardor or more advanced work. They may be put into the next higher class of their own grade or into the lower class of the next grade above them. In this way each pupil will be enabled to advance as rapidly as pos sible, unloss checked because of crowded conditions of the rooms. Many of the best schools of the state have this method In operation with the most satisfactory results. This change of the method of promotion and classi fication was done with the approval of the board of directors and teachors. C. V. Smith, Principal. Free Wall Paper.
