In order to have mora time U> aid pupils in the selection of their courses and to avoid the tiresome waiting for registration caused by the congestion when all pupils register on the first day of school, it has been decided to have the high school pupils report for registration on Thursday end Friday of the week preceding the opening of school, according to an announcement issued Thursday by Richards, superintendent ami L. W. McFadden, principal, of the j Camden City schools. I The schedule for registration will be as follows: Thursday, September 6, 9 a. m.? Registration of eighth grade pupils. Thursday, September 5, 11:00 a. m. Registration of ninth grade pupils. Thursday, September 6, 2:30 p.m.? Registration of tenth grade pupils. . Friday, September 6, 9.00 a.m.?All pupils who 'live outside the city and who have not found it convenient to register on Thursday will report at this hour for registration. This provision is made primarily for the convenience of the pupils who come to school on buses. Other pupils who live outside the city, but who huve private means of getting to school should, if possible, report at the regular time for the registration of their classes. Friday, September 6, 12:00 noon.? Registration of 11th grade pupils. All pupils should plan to register* at the scheduled hour, for there may be serious disadvantages In late registration. For instance, many of our courses are elective and these classes may be filled to ^capacity before the ( first day of school, threby depriving the ones who register late of a wide range of selection. Further, we plan to place in operation on the first da./ of school our perm^pent schedule for classes and the pupil registering late' is likely to haye difficulty in getting his desired subjects fitted into this schedule, whereas if we know his desires in time there is a greater pos-, sibility of arranging the schedule to accommodate his selected subjects. Pupils will be excused from school immediately after registration. _The list of books as authorized by Superintendent Richards will be as follows: First Grade?No books required. Second Grade?Child's World Second Reader, McCall' complete Speller, Morey's Little Folks Number Book, Si&ftnes Arithmetic Drill Pad, Practical Drawing, Art Education. ^ Third Grade?Child's World Third Reader, McCall's Complete Speller, Kinard, Brown, Rogers "Our Language" book 1; Smith Modern Primary Arithmetic, Practical Drawing Art Education, Lennes Arithmetic Drill Pad.

Richards, Jr. has i.vsu^d the following advice illative to the opening of the school# in this city on Monday,. September ttt | The schools of Camden will ?pen on Monday morning, September bth. at nine o'clock. Due to the fact that the auditorium will not seat all students, there will be no formal opening with program, However, pupils will assemble at the Lyttleton Street school, Whyie they will receive instructions. We ui gently re<|uest of patrons, attention and cooperatioh in the following matters: 1. I'upils should be enrolled on the first day. It is absolutely necessary that they Ik* there to receive the proper instructions, to get a proper start, and that they be properly grouped A lute entrance may mean for the student an inconvenient seating ;i i range-men t. 2- With the exception of the first grade pupils, textbooks should be bought early und certainly not latev than the Saturduy before the opening. The l>ook \list is in the hands of i the book stores and is published in this week's issue of The Chronicle. Rooks will be used on the opening day for assigning lessons. The whole school day will Ix? used by teachers in giving instructions on text book subject matter, and how to study in preparation. 3. Think over and institute a program of home study for each child in school from your home. Arrange a definite time either in the afternoon or evening of each day for pupils to study. Arrange a proper place for the pupil to do his studying, a place free from disturbing noises. A definite program of home study l>egun at once will mean that pupils will more easily adjust themselves. If this matter is put off it may mean that your Child will soon find himself hopelessly be- j hind in his class Work. 4. The law requires vaccination for the prevention of smallpox and fixes a penalty on teachers and school officials allowing the entrance and enrollment of children who have not been vaccinated. If there is any physical reason why a child should not be vaccinated, a doctor's certificate shpuld be presented on the first day. The Camden Mill school will open on", the same date and time as the qjher schools of the city. Candidates for the high school foot bafa team are requested to meet on the grounds of the Lyttleton Street school on Monday afternoon, September 3, at 4:30. It is hoped that many new faces will be seen on the open* ing day as there are many positions to be filled, left vacant from last season. The squad will be coached by Mr. John Villepigue, Mr. C. T. Baldwin and Mr. J. G. Richards, Jr. Practical Drawing Art Education, Lennes' Arithmetic Drill Pad.
