“In addition to the text books, each pupil will need pencils and tablets amounting to about fifteen cents, depending on the grade. Pens and ink are supplied free as are also about one third of the books. The following list is only those that the pupil must buy. Parents and pupils should study the list carefully and if they do not have the books send the amount with the pupil next Tuesday morning so that pupils may get at work promptly. Every child should come prepared to do a full days work Tuesday and if they do not come they will be behind just that much and will likely be sent home for needed material. The schools are already organized and no time need to be lost in starting.”
