The spb- clal visiting day plan is an innovation and it is expected that it wlll credte general interest, resulting ‘in the ap- pearance at the schools of a large number of the townspeople. The classes will have their reg- ular work on these days and an effort will be made to make. the Vvisit of the parents one of exceptional’ interest. Mr. Judd has decided to elimlnne the annual school exhibition of draw- ings and other work done by the pu- plls this vear. On visiting days, however, the progress made by the «children will be illustrated through a series of exhibits collected during the year. Teachers in the upper grade are busy making preparations for the an- ‘nual graduation exercises. The indi- cations are that the class to receive diplomas will be the largest in the his- tory of the school. Rehearsals have ‘been started for the songs which will be rendered by the children in.con- nection with the exercises. An elab- orate musical program is being pre- pared and it i{s expected to prove a most enjoyable feature of the affair.
