'I feel the schools were never in better condition; that they were never In better working order than during the last month," said Superintendent T. A. Mott, of the Richmond public schools. In reviewing the work of the last year. "The spirit of harmony, co-operation

seventeen years I have been at the : head of the schools" Improvements Made. When school books are carried home Friday .afternoon the most successful year of the city schools will be history. It has been marked by a large Increase in enrollment, improvements in the Sevastopol building, the purchase of land for a new building in West Richmond and a free night school The total enrollment reached 4,050, "which is the first time that it has ever passed the 4.000 mark. This Is an increase of more than 200 over the figures of last year of 3,839. Six hundred and seventy-two students attended the high school, compared with 630 last year. Ninety-one complete the high school course Friday. About seventy-one will graduate from the eighth grade. Although the number of pupils increased more than 200, only two teachers were added to the teaching corps, making 113 instructors. At Sevastopol School. A two-room addition was added to the Sevastopol school last fall, and a new heatfne plant for the entire building installed. This plant follows the most improved plans known to heating engineers. A fan driven by an electric motor insures good ventilation at all times. The heat is controlled by Johnston automatic thermostats. Altogether $7,600 was spent on improvements. New $30,000 Building. The school board purchased the block bounded by South West First, South West Second, D and E streets. This property is intended for a building site and a public playground. The new $30,000 building is already in the process of construction. For the first time a free night school waB conducted under the state law, which authorizes the school board to pay the expenses of such schools. During the winter of 1911 and 1912 night instruction was given, a small tuition being charged to cover the running expenses. 500 at Night School. Five hundred persons over 20 years of age enrolled during the first week of the night school. The average attendance during the forty nights of instruction was 289. More than 350 students completed the course. Classes were offered in wood turning, mechanical drawing, freehand drawing, book-j keeping, stenography, dressmaking, cooking, millinery, arithmetic, algebra, geometry, grammar, rhetoric, litera ture, chemistry, music, writing and spelling. Foreigners Taught. A class in beginning English for foreigners was organized in which seventeen persons receifsSd their first knowledge of the language. Looking back over the work of the high school since he became principal, at the beginning of the present term, Mr. Thompson, said that the program outlined In the fall had been carried through without a hitch, so far as the class room work was concerned. Upon assuming control, Mr. Thompson found the school treasury without "GETS-IT," the Only Thing for Corns ! The Corn Cure on a New Plan Gets Every Corn Quick and Sure. You've tried a lot of things for corns, but you've still got them. Try the new, sure, quick, easy, painless
"Ta-da-da da.da!. Every Corn's Gone 'GETS-IT' Did It!" way the new-plan corn cure, "GETSIT." Watch it get rid of that corn, wart, callus or bunion in a hurry, "GETS-IT" is as sure as time. It takes two seconds to apply that's all. No bandages to stick and fuss over, no salves to make corns sore and turn true flesh raw and red, no plasters, no more knives and razors that may cause blood poison, no more digging at corns. Just the easiest thing in the world to use. Your corn days are over. "GETS-IT" is guaranteed. It is safe, never hurts healthy flesh.

a penny In ft. This was a great handicap. The school could not pay the expenses of a representative to an oratorical contest in Chicago, nor could it enter a team in the state basket ball tournament at Indiana University. The first thing Mr. Thompson did was to arrange a festival. All kinds of "stunts" were planned from shooting galleries to mock police courts. In this manner $250 was raised. This placed the school in a position to enter contestants In oratorical and athletic contests with other schools. About $150 of this sum is still in the treasury. Annual Was Published. This spring the Senior class voted to publish an annual. For two or three years previous no book had been issued. The teachers and students co-

Admission Deafness Cannot Be Cured by local application, as they cannot reach the diseased portion of the ear. ; There is only one way to cure deafness, and that is by constttutioni.1 ; remedies. Deafness is caused by au in- j flamed condition of the mucous lining ; , of tho Eustachian Tube. When this j tube is inf'iamed you ha.e a rumbling J i sound or imperfect hearing, and wbeuj j it is entirely clof ed. Deafness is the result, and unless the inflnmation can 1 ho taken out and this tube restored to its normal condition, hearing will be destroyed forever; nine rases out of : ten are caused by Catarrh, which is nothing but an inflamed condition of j the mucous surfaces.
