It is thought that within a month one of the wings in the new part can be used. , . We expect to wire off the grounds in the front of the building. (Parents should warn their.-hildrea to stay withing the -wired space while on the grounds. - No child- will be expected to loiter about the grounds at any time and especially near where the construction is te progress.- ? - The Boaidwrderedhat, until. fur. ther notice, school will run on sin gle session. This means that when a .ki'U KAmM in the moraine, it is not expected to go home until school is over for the day. No lunch hour on the grounds is to be givenrhowever, this does not prevent ny , child from bringing several sandwiches to eat at school. A short period will be given for the children to eat their, sand wiches in the school room. The school iav will lino be shortened ' as seen necessary for the best interests of the pupils. This ruling, of the board is to prevent haying the children on the grounds so much while the dan gerous part of the construction is in progress. With such conditions,- chil dren who leave the grounds as soon as dismissed from school should avoid any accident.

Of course Dart of this work of preparation and planning was done long since but it is time nov to put the "Sunday Clothes" on the pigs and chickens and everything that is to go to the fair. Exhibiting at the fair is just like doing anything else if it is done at all it should be done right. The farmer who takes his stock to the afir in poor condition does both them and himself an injustice. He is not nuite as bad as the man who does not take anything to the fair but goe and looks at-everything and tells how much better he has at home.
