BODWELL LAND COMPAN im- National Bank Bidg. 11:40 a. m.,, and 1:30 p. m. to 3:30 P. mi A letter was read from Prlt\clpa.l‘ Louis P. Slade .explaining that the purpose of the change at the High school was to lengthen the morning session to make each recitation period forty minutes net with three minutes between classess The same reason was given for lengthening the after- noon periods and doing away with the sixth period, which is not long enough at present to warrant its con- tinuation. Superintendent Holmes, speaking for the Grammar school, said the periods in that school were too short. School periods all over the country are being lengthened, he said. On recommendation of Principal Slade he was authorized to use his dis- cretion in the matter of giving proper credit to students who had but one year's study-of+a foreign language. Some pupils take one year, but are incapable of taking the second and Principal Slade wishes them to get credit for the year they devoted to the study. . To Sell shipman School.
