The request is a perfectly legitimate one, this practice having been cameo out in the local school during the past three or four years. When first insti- tuted the Board was not sure or the tuted the Board was not sure or the Presbyterian result. but the experience gam' ed has . proven to Board and teachers that the AM.â€"“Glad Easter Bell” (Ira B.
