EXAMINATIONS TATER.
Becuse of the change made by
the Department of Education in the
time. of the midsummer examine-
to be held this year, Hon, H. J. Cody
issued a statement as to the dates
the results will be made known. He
said that the public probably would
not realize the fact that the change
had been made and would make
their summer plans in accordance
with the dates the results were
made known in former years. The
dates of the examinations were put
off about two weeks hi each case this
year because of the unavoidable in-
terruptions to school work last year
chiefly from the influenza epidemic,
and there will be a corresponding de-
lay in announcing the results as com-
pared_ with previous years. The dat-
es
ates of the examinations are: Junior
high school entrance, July 2nd.: jun-
ior public school graduation, June
30th,; lower school July 2nd.;. mid-
dle school July 11th.; pass matricu-
lation, July 2nd.; upper school and
honor matriculation June 30th.
