The attendance is greater than ever in the bistory o! the school, due no doubt ta the fact that a! ter 1934 the Normal Scbool will admit only sucb students who have standing that will entitle then te graduate then witb a first class car- tificate. In past years the High Scbool e- suits, which were publisbed saine weeks ago, bave always been well aboya tha average in the province and this year is no exception. Ah- lhough the percentage passing is not quite as high this year, stUll the saine relative proportion is main- tained, and the staff looks forward ta a ver3, successful year this year. At ana time the High School Board were faced witb the necessity of hiring an extra teacher to take cama o! the enlarged atandance. but the Board and Principal Dippeli are ta be commended on the way they have raarranged classes so that this added ey-iense will not be necessary. Students and staff o! the school will be sorry te hear that at a meet- ing o! the High School Board this wveek the resignatioli, througb ilI naalth, of Miss 1. G . Halliday was accepted by the Board with regret. Miss Halliday is ordered by ber phy- siians to take a complete rest. The Board is already advemtisin'g for a teachar ta take ber work in Coin- mercial classes. At the Public School the attend- asre bas reachad nearhy 600. Had Principal Johnstan been able ta ac- cominodate all the beginiiers thal appeared on school openîng day more than 600 would bave been reg- istered. Lack o! roon however cau- ted several o! the youngar anas to be sent home for another year. Work at the Public Scbool bas settled down ta routine, and wth practically the saine staff as las' yaar. a good yaar's work is axpected, Miss Annie Aiin bas returned from Edmonteon, Ata., wbere sh> was called by the sudden daath of ber brother, Dr. Edgar Ain.

Pearce of New- castle speaks for itself, and only serves ta bear out aur contention that if you bave anytbing to selI, advertise it in The Statesmafi. Dear Editor: The Ad "Tonatoes for Sale" in The Statesmnan last week was 1001% suc- cessful and tbrough it I have been able ta dispose o! the crop as it ripened.

C., last week. Pull details a! the contest are not ta hand, but a wire f rom John M. James, The Statesmafl's representative at the convention, annaunced The Statesman's receipt o! this hlgh honor. The Mason Tropby was originally presented by W. E. Mason, Editor of the Sudbury Star, for annual competitian among weekly newspapers in Canada with circulations exceeding 2000 copies weekly. The winner of the contest this year was the Vernon B. C. News. This paper is published in a town approxixnately the same size as Bowman- ville, with a population 70 less than this tawn. The tawn is a junction on the C. P. R. and C. N -R. and is situated on Lake Okanagan, in the heart of a great fruit growing district. It is, like The Statesman. an independerit newspaper of seven columns and it might be interesting ta point out that its subscription rate is $250 per year in con- ijarison with The Statesman's $200. The Renfrew Mercury, published by E. Roy Sayles, Manager Director of the C. W. N. A., beat The Statesman by one point laest year, but The Statesman pulled up f rom fourth place last yeur ta second this year, putting Renfrew in third place.

Newspapers entering the contest are nat given an opportunity ta publish a paper especially for the contest. The directors of the C. W. N. A. as convention time draws near select two numbers at randoin, this year April l3th and June 22nd issues were chosen, so that the newspaper must be consistently goad ta ensure that whatever num- ber is selected will be well representative of the paper that is published f rom week ta, week. Publishers of The Statesman have put forth every effort to keep up the high standard of this paper during these depressed times by adding sev- eral features ta its columns and making other un- provenants ta the paper by way of affering a bet- ter service to the community whicb bas patron- ized The Statasman since it was founded in 1854. This work of! continually improving the readable qualities and advertising service of this news- paper will go ahead in the future as it has in the past as a mark of appreciatian for the generous support The Statesman received and as an effort ta warrant your continued support in the future. jGOLDEN WEDDING GREENFIELO - FLETCHER - In BowmanviIC. on Septemiber 12th. 1883, )y Rev.
