SCHOOL NOTES 
MANCHESTER 
The schools close next Friday for the 
Christmas recess of 10 days, convening 
again on Wednesday, Jan. 2. 
Invitations have been sent by the child- 
ren and teacher of the Kindergarten this 
week to the parents of the little tots to be 
present at the Christmas tree and exer- 
cises to be held next Friday morning at 
9.30. 
George W. Libby of the American 
Book Co., gave a short spelling test to 
the ninth grade last week. The result 
was very satisfactory. Mr. Libby said 
the test was 50 per cent better than in> 
any of the schools he had examined from 
Bangor to Boston. 
The boys in the sloyd classes have 
been very busy with their Christmas 
work the past week. A sloyd lesson 
takes place every Monday and it would 
be of much interest to the parents to 
visit the class some day. 
The regular school barges have been 
run as usual to accomadate the children 
going in rooms under Grade V.

The children who helped send the 
Thanksgiving donations to the poor chil- 
dren in Boston will be pleased to read 
the following letter: 
“Hull Street Settlement House,”’ 
Boston, Mass. 
“Dear Boys and Girls: I want to 
express to you my deepest appreciation 
and thanks for your generous Thanksgiv- 
ing gifts. Nearly a hundred bags were 
filled and sent into the homes of the poor 
and of the sick. I wish you might have 
seen the delighted faces of the people 
when the bags were opened. The chick- 
en went to a scrub woman who has been 
out of work for some time and whose 
husband is sick. Had it not been for 
the chicken they would have had no 
meat for their Thanksgiving dinner. It 
seems to me I| never saw nicer vegetables 
and apples. “The canned goods were 
so acceptable also. It is really impossible 
to let you know how much good your 
: offering did. Thanking you again, be-
