Schools Adopt
New System Of
Marking: Grades
I A new m-irklnir system has been
: adopted for the 1-a (Iramle public
'. schools which will h'wo - a more
j comprehensive report to the par-cm-j.
and will enable them to know
'just how their children rank with
: the- others.
"This marking system unil this
I report card have been adopted In
he hope that they will contribute
i toward a more equitable judgment
; of the pupil's school work, and
I wilt better indicute his progress
in elucation," Superintendent, .1.
r. Longfellow said.
The highest possible unulc Is an
A. which is uiven for superior
ability n scholarship, initiative,
attitude, cooperution. nnd for In
dividual Improvement. A student
(receiving this trade, must be alert,
j active, and Intelligent.
There are four other grades. It,
0. 1. and V It helm; above aver
j nse, C slightly heow U, and an
I average Krade which from 3C to
If. per cent of the class will re
ceive. 1 Is a raile below average,
jyet passing: and F Is a fulllnir
i Krade.
The new mrade card jjives con
i sid era bio - information. Kollowinn
jeneh subject, the nuniber f stud
ents reKistercd in that clas Is wrlt
i ten. -the number, roceivhiK A's. It's,
t"c. etc., b also shown. . .
Consider nn arithmetic clas of
Sr. It wll be shown on tlie card,
for example, that two received A:
9, !: Hi n.; e: . 7',n I); ami one
failure. Around Jhe! nnmlmr wtileti
j includes the individual child's
j -trade 'ti red circle is dra wn. So
i that if in .this' arithmetic class a
j boy received a it; a red circle
! would be drawn around the fiKiire'
i i In the column 1) on his report.
Each card contains a year's rec
! ord in scholarship and attendance.
The system has been adopted in
all the city schools, and these cards
lieiim used In all the K'ndo schools.
Report cards wilt he (riven out the
first Tuesday folluwini: the expira
tion of the six week period. Cards
for litis last period will be (,'ivcn
out tomorrow.

Could You Get
Extra Gash
In An
Emergency?
If you suffered an accident and. were put out of
work, oi' had a long expensive sickness in the family,
or you had n chance to buy u house and lot at a Imr
l(nn could you raise the necessary cash in such an
einerjfency ?
If you have saved a little of your income rinht alonjr,
if you have accumulated a few bonds or other good
securities, if you have invested in a good piece of real
estate then you'd naturally expect that you could
borrow a little extra money when needed.
I'ut if you have never saved anything, if you've al
way spent everything you could make, if you owe iruue
bills than you can pay under those circumstances,
you'd hardly blame anyone for refusing you a loan.
Your credit is a very tangible asset that is built or
destroyed by the way you handle your financial affairs.
Your banker can advise how your credit can best be
strengthened. We are glad to have u friendly talk with
you any time on reasonable plums for saving and investment.
