charge of their proper school.
Prof. Drummond has been very busy
arranging matters to the best possible in

line is well known, and under his careful
leadership, assisted by his excellent corps
of teachers, there can bo no doubt of suc
cess.

throp presiding as substitute over the first

its second year under the control of Miss
Etta Shepard, first primary, who had Si

pupils, in 2nd primary.
At the high school wc found the schol

of the year's work, and the teachers busy
arranging their classes and getting mat
ters in proper shape for th ir duties.
Our first call here was ot room 1 where
Miss Edith Hanna presides over 30 brjgh

Miss Wiles' fifth year in our city schools.
The high school proper, is iu charge of
Mr. George Chatburn, Supt., and for the
present, Miss Graves, of Iowa City, will
assist him. We found that they were
organizing this forenoon and by tomor
row will be ready for regular work
They have 50 students in attendance.
3Iuch credit is due to Mr. D. K. Barr,
the j mitor, and to the school board for
the improvement about the grounds of
the high school building, new fences and
sidewalks have been built and the
grounds seeded down ai.d cleared up
generally, giving it a neat and tasty ap.
pearance. 3Ir- Barr informed us that
they had recently purchased two new
Dorrence rocking grates, to be used in
the boiler; it will save in the expense of
fuel from $200 to $300 anuuallv. The
new boiler room, a much needed
i.nprovemeut will soon be completed.
All the school yards in the city have
Iieen treated to new fences and sidewalks,
together with other improvements, which
