Our work is starting out in fine
shape. \ \ e have seven in the

plele the work this year. While
the Preston schools are doing
splendid work in every line they
an ? doing especially strong
work in penmanship , a subject
which is too often slighted in
our schools. Twenty minutes
is taken for writing each day
and about seven minutes of this
time is devoted to movement
exercise. A specimen of eacl
pupil's writing is taken at the
close of each \\eek and kept by
the teacher. Thus the progress
of each pupil can be definite ! }
noted from time to time. Twc
prizes are oll'ered : one to the
pupil whose work shows the
most improvement at the close
of the term and one for the pu
pil who is judged the best writ
er. The judge will be Prof. M

serious thought and candid inves
