School Notes.

The School Board met last Monday evening to hear Prof, Reubelt’s report for October. There has been some sickness among the pupils that lessened the attendance, but the report was very satisfactory in every respect excepting one—there were too many cases of tardiness. The time lost was not great, but pu pjls should be taught to always be on time, prompt and ready for any duty before them.—Parents and guardianscan aid greatly in lessening the number of such cases. Among good business men, it is a disgrace for a man to fail to meet an appointment, to be tardy. The children are now forming habits that will go with through life. A record is kept of these cases of tardiness, each should try to have a clean score oppohis or her name.
