Today ths pubUo school! will open (or

notlnsd ss to their positions, and while
' ora little- deUr will naturally occur in
the sorting out of pupils and oraanlilng
tha classes this werk Is expected to be
completed before the day 1 over. At
the high echool a portion of the asairn
rocot of puplla . ha already been maae,
Principal Graham bavins invited the puplla
. to all and aelect their course of study.
By doing thl the classes In the high
school ,wlU easily be organised, aa nearly
three-fourths or the pupils have selected
, their course of study.
. In addition to assigning pupl promoted
after the final examinations In June the
principals of the schools will be called
upon to handle . newoomers. Many chil
dren who have never attended school be
fore are expected to add their names to
the roll While some have dropped out
from various causes the total enrollment
' for the first day Is expected to exceed that
.'' of last year.
v All of the school buildings have been
' placed In good condition during the vaca
tion and the Janitors have seen to It that
everything Is as heat aa a pin about the
building. Borne disappointment Is ex
pressed at .the (allure to have, at least a
portion Of -the new 'high school building
comnleted. This will ckuaa a congestion at
"Central achotJt, but this Is so natural
that the superintendent, principals and
" teachers are accustomed to It. When rooms
In the new high school are ready the plan
Is to move the present frame school
building from Tweqty-sixth and M streets
. to Twenty-third and R streets and save a
, great many young pupils from crossing the
street cap tracks. Superintendent McLean
expects, to be able to make a report of
the enrollment and other details of the
opening of the schools to the Board of
Education. '-which moots tonight.
