Rensselaer Public School.

The Public School commences Sept. 7th. No boy or girl of school age can afford to be absent the first Monday morning. For the young, school is a business.- The merchant fails who is not at his place of business early and late-*and every day, so in like manner the boy or girl fails who is not in his or her seat diligently at work from the first Monday morning to the last dav of school. Itiultthatldrtheßoy Bandgirlsbf school age in Rensselaer will pack their books and march gladly to the school building at the ringing of the bell Monday morning, Sept. 7th. Parents should be awake to the fact that ours are systematically graded schools and any departure from their graded system will, in the course of a very short time, undermine their organization and reduce them from first class schools to second or third class schools. Therefore, parents who wish the schools to maintain their present high standing and their children promoted from one grade to the next higher should understand that their Children must be in school the whole year and do diligent, earnest woi'k. The Indiana School Books will be distributed at the school building. The Board has ordered that all books must be paid for before they are taken away. Pupils coming in from the country will be assisted in. securing board at reasonable rates by speakiDg to me. Again I earnestly solicit regular and prompt attendance throughout the school year. There will be a Teachers’ Meeting in the Superintendent’s Office next Saturday afternoon at 2 o’clock. Very Respectfully, Howard L. Wilson. p— Ladies’ g enuine hand-turned shoe $2.50 to $5, at Hemphill A Honan’s. Everything clean and new. Dry Goods, Clothing, Hats, Caps, Boots and shoes. Ellis <fc Murray.
