Sthool Aftendance This Year Larger Than Ever Before KENSINGTON 15 LARGEST Mrs. Mary Baratterio’s Funeral This Morning—Joseph Moore Estate Hearing Next Monday—Other News Items From Around Town. The Berlin schools opened »ay with the largest registration in the history of the town, 832 children being registered at the morning session. This is a considerable increase over any previous year, there being 75 more enrolled at the opening of the school this year than at the end of the first month last year, the figure at that time being 75 Since the regis- {ration of the first day is never equal to that of the month, the actual in- crease will be greater than The Blue Hills school is the only one which does not show an increase. This is due principally to the fact that that district is a farming community and the growth is not very marked. Provision has been made to care for this increase in the various schools 'as well as to relieve the serious over- crowding which has prevailed during the last several years in certain schools in town. New rooms have | been opened in the Hubbard ool in East Berlin and in the Worthington school in Berlin. Already the enroll- ment in these two schools has brought the number of children in each room close to the maximum which should be permitted in them. The added raoms take re of the increase very | well this year, but if the number en- tering next year is still greater, more rooms and new construction will be necessary to solve the problem. At the Kensington Grammar school a new basement room has been finish- ed off to be used by the first graders. This makes ten rooms at this building which are being devoted to class rpoms. The enrollment in this school is 413, which is 23 more than last year. The enrollment, however, will be some larger due to the fact that more chil- dren are expected to register within next few days. The rooms were built to accommodate classes of 37 each, mhich shows that there is overcrowd- ing in every room despite the fact that another roam has been added during the past year, only one room had as| few as 37 children in it. The opening of the Ledge school, together with the new room at this building, will make it possible to arrange the classes for this year so that none will go beyond the limits established by the size of the rooms. There was a large registration at the different high schools from this town but as yet the actual figures and i crease over last year's have not been compiled. As soon as Superintendent Showalter makes a compilation the figures wil] be publishead. Mrs. Mary Baratterio.

Hair that loses its color and lustre, or when it fades, turns gray, dull and lifeless, is caused by a lack of sulphur in the hair. Our grandmother made up a mixture of Sage Tea and Sulphur to keep her locks dark and beautiful, thousands of women and men who value that even color, that beau- tiful dark shade of hair which is so attractive, use only this old-time recipe.
