Miss Louisa Weckesser, fourth grade teacher, spent Saturday and Sunday with her parents at Doylestown. Three new pupils enrolled last week—Mary Yagey, Junior; Curzen Poposic, second grade; Mary Burk holder, second grade. We believe. we have as good a playground equipment as you will find in many ,larger towne—2 bas ketball ground for the larger girls, a hall diamond for the boys, an elevated wheel with ropes for the intermediate pupils, a see-saw for the primary children and two swings for the little girls. With the proper kind of play the minds kept active and free from bad thoughts which are sure to come if right kind of physical exercises not provided. The article which appeared in The Press several weeks ago on “A Public Library” is producing fruit in our schools, as Mr Elmer Dula bahn, Grammar grade teacher, has organized a reading club at Bethel View and has received fifty vol umes from the circulating library at Columbus. The proper blanks have been filled and returned for securing 150 volumes for use in our schools. The High School boys met the Doylestown boys on their field Fri day afternoon and played a nice game of baseball, although being defeated 7 to 4.
