12th. It is advisable that all pupils
who expect to attend should enroll
the first day, so that all classes may
lie fully organized and the regular

'especially advisable that all pupils in
: the beginners' class in the primary
department and in the ninth grade,
where tlie work is practically all new
| to the pupils, should lie present
; for instruction in the first lessons.
Wititout it the pupils in these classes
cannot make satisfactory progress. 1
