The buildings are in better condition than they were last year. It will require several days to adjust the classes and determine the boundareis for regulating the attendance at the several schools. The outlook is very encouraging for a successful year's work in all departments.

The boundary lines for the several grades will be the same as those established for last term. These lines in some irustanres may be changed if found necessary to make such change in order to more equitably distribute the pupils and relieve the pressure on teachers as well as the rooms where overcrowded. All pupils whose residences are within the limits fixed for the respective schools, or for certain classes, will have to attend the schools in their respective school wards. No deviation from this regulation will be permitted unless specially ordered by the board of directors.

Rasmus, the grent play of "Damon and Pythias" will be puea-nted at the Reed on the evenings of October Oth and 10th, the dates of the meeting of the grand lodge of that order in Salem.

Prof. Rasmus will impersonate the character of "Damon;" he is an actor of extraordinary ability and accomplishments and with this assistance of the best local talent of Salem the production will undoubtedly be a success.

The leautiful myth, tradition, or history, it matters not which it is called, is of an event which antedates the Christian era by a period of time alKut equal to that which intervenes between the discovery of America by Columbus and the present year. The reign of marked an era world's history.

The block is erected, the crowds are gathered in the square, the funeral procession is formed, and Pythias is led forth to seal his friendship with his blood. Does he shrink? Xo.

Does lie falter? No. With soldierly and iron nerve he wends his way cheerfully to die for his friend. In that awful moment the clatter of a horse's hoofs is heard In the distance and soon Damon falls exhausted at the feet of his friend. This display of manhood and true courage led captive the tyrant's heart, who, remitting the death sentence of Damon, sought admission to their friendship. UNIVERSITY I.
