that which they have been The board have tried conscientious ly to secure good teachers for the places they had to In the princi of the west side building made vacant by the marriage of Miss Jones they have placed Miss Byrde a teacher of several years successful She comes with excellent recommend The schools are beginning a little earlier than has been the custom in the past and it is likely that the at tendance will not be quite up to nor mal on the start from the fact that many of the especially those in the high school are employed in the canning But it was thought better that this should be done rather than to carry the work so far into the The high school course has been broadened to some In the eleventh and twelfth grades there is now an opportunity to work along There is to be one years work in book keeping and one half years work in commercial law and commercial geo Neither of these branches can be taken the pupil has completed the work of the tenth which in cludes two years in The commercial work may be substituted for language in the lafat two During the vacation the buildings have been repaired inside and out and permanent walks have been laid in front of the east and central build Nothing has been done as yet toward making connections with the sewer system and it is not likely that this will be done until another In the matter of looking after those children who come within the scope of the compulsory education the board have hired a special officer for that purpose who will be on the look out for any who be out of By an amendment to the law last winter the time was made four months and the school work is to commence with the beginning of the school It is the Intention of the board to see that the provisions of the law are complied with in

In but few instances do we find any kind of an enterprise that has no objectional features about By objectional features is meant no reasons why it should not It does not mean something wrong in The festival as planned by the com who worked out its scheme is as free from anything that la wrong morally as it seemed to them possible to make Practically every one of the business men felt that there had been enough of the license that has been a part of some of car On that account they were conscientiously opposed to them and stated their opinions frankly and The only question at issue now is does the best interests demand that something should be done to bring the people to Atlantic and as the festival is planned the best means of doing On both these points there la some thing of a difference of It is practically true that the majority of merchants believe that At should do something to get the It Is also true that from the standpoint of its moral effect the merchants are a unit in the idea that the festival as planned is what it should There are some who believe that the plans cannot be carried out For all these every one should entertain that respect that Is due all people who have convictions on any subjects and for them the Messenger does hold a high The reason that we have urged are entirely out of place for the moat part in reference to the The expediency of it and the ability to finance are reticent They are the main ques tions of difference now and the oppo sition as the writer sees it is based on that Both of these can not be determined by Experience alone will settle the There is a course that who do not have faith in the wisdom of the plans that might be taken that would meet Lho are in favor of it and at the same time would not place them in a com prising That is those who do not feel that they can afford to contribute fees should be not cen sured because they do Those who can afford it but do DO believe it to he wise business policy to do eo entertain the same On the other hand let those who feel that the thing should be pushed for all that there is in it have a proper respect for honest difference of On the part of all let there be no knocking and whether the scheme succeeds or falls it will not prove a bad thing to the business men them It is true in Atlantic that there are some who are not From one reason or another they do not have what is termed public For them but little or nothing can be The some times to succeed in their selfish But if they really do is a At any rate it is useless to try to do anything with them and the beat way is to pay no attention to them in any way The question ia BOW up to Ihe merchants and men of In another column may be found the report of the committee who were appointed to the tasks of the
