Longwood School
The primary room lias new Ahline
readers, the kind used in many large
schools in the stutes A systematic re
petition of words until they are
thoroughly understood makes pro
gress very rapid, with new pupils es
pecially.
There are several little beginners
whose mental pioc*sses de\el* p very,
very slowly. There are others who
an- really remarkable in their pro
gross. The variation depends in a
large degree upon the Knglish vocab
ulary acquired before entering, but
more upon quality of mind.
The pupils of the higher grades all
have new Akiine sj < lit is and Several
contests are on. {Several Friday after
noon spilling matches have helped
each pupil to Hud Ills place as a spel
ler. do far the least n umber of words
missed in the wntt n contest is nine
out of five hundred, and tin* great* st
number thiny-one.
Some members of the eighth grade
clans nave almost completed the r>b>no
Mill Advaiieed Arithmithic and others
are following very close.
The shop has made a new pulpit
for the Mission Chapel, folding iron
ing boards for the matrons, a drying
rack for the girls and numerous pic
ture frames, shds and trinkets, be
sides some repair work.
The dory made by the training
school last term was sold to Mr.
Laiiey, i t the Agricultural expnment
station. It had a severe trial on its
hist trip to Danger Hay on a bear
hunt. It brought two big bear skins
and three hunters through some
heavy sea. They say they never saw
a dory ride the sea better so of course
the binders are ph ased. Another one
will be finished this year.
