TnnAY - On : Wednesday morning,- Septem ber 6, at 0:30 o'clock the city schools will resume work. i Children who are entering school for the first time should ba vaccinate i now in order that the effects of th vaccination will' not hinder their school duties. No new pupil will bo admitted unless' such pupil presents a certifi cate or shows clear evident c of a suc cessful . vaccination. - Last year the vaccination law was strictly followed.' and as. a result our schools were unmolested while many nearby .towns were forced to dose school for a time because of smallpox. All ' pupils should enter the very first day and if possible be present every day during the entire year. The great majority of cases of failure are due to irregular attendance. Children entering the ?irst grade for the first time in September must enroll during: the first four weeks of school or wait for another beginnine class which will be next year. Although tlm rule may item exceeaingiy strict it is m ac cordance with state school rcau'atons and its observance means more to the pupihj than any ether regulation we lave. A few entcrine- late. will retard the progress of the entire class since the teacher must take time from the room to go over with the late entrants everything which the room as a wtole ias gone over. In the meantime these children who must ,wait get rest ess and decide that school is not so much after all. The unitv of the work and the results can easily be demoral- ed for the entire year by a few tardv rupils. . This year the schools over the state ake up a new course of study but in Tickory we will have comparatively ew changes. The adoption by the state or tne state public schools was a case f the other schools beinsr forced t.r. ake up many of the books which hav! een used m the local schools for the rast three years.
