SOMETHING GOOD FOR YOU
Spending this Christmas will
be done on a fairly liberal
scale, and there is no particular
reason why it should not be so
Times are prosperous, money
is plentiful, happiness is every-
where, and nobody feels dis-
posed to tie either a miser or a
grouch.
We have some good stores in
this town. Their owners have
grown up in our midst and have
helped to make the community
what it is—a good place to live.
They have a reputation for
fair dealing, and they live up
to the reputation they have
earned.
The columns of this paper
will be advertising their goods
extensively during the holiday
trade, and many a choice bar-
gain will be found among those

On Saturdav, October 30th,
the Brady High School foot ball
team will play the local Ham

order to defray the general ex-
penses and to pay for the uni-
forms the price will be raised
to twenty-five cents for children
and fifty cents for adults.-
Would you spend fifty cents
for a dollar's worth of fun and
pleasure? If so come to both
of these games.

The above report is based
upon the following scale of
grading: 90 to 100—A, ex-
cellent; 80 to 90—B, Good; 70
to 80—fair; GO to 70—1), poor;
50 to 60—E, failure, below 50—
F, bad failure; and upon the
requirement that a student, in
order to graduate or be pro-
moted to the next higher grade,
must make an average of B
on deportment, a general aver-
age of C, including attendance
and deportment, and an average
of at least D on each subject.
If your child's name does not
appear in the lists above, come
to see me at the school build-
ing and I can point out the
reason why.
More than 50 per cent of the
boys and girls, work for the
past month was not entirely
satisfactory, and yet very few
parents have made enquiries
as to why. If I had a child
in school, I would know what
he was doing. Parents, ex-
amine the report cards of your
children each month when you
sign them, and if they are not
satisfactory, learn why. And
you are expected to sign them,
not the pupils themslves.

Principal.
