News of Our Schools
With one exception all the
schools of Red Willow county are
now in session for the year Pat
ents are urged to see that all
children are in attendancce soon
as possible for some of the terms
are short and the loss of a month
of time means much in their
work The compulsory school law
provides that each child between
seven and fifteen years of age
must attend not less than two
ithirds of the time the school is
in session in their district
In a recent l3tter State Supt
Crabtree says Kindly advise
school boards to arrange for
their teachers to attend the State
Teachers Association at Omaha
November 8 9 and 10 Let mem
bers of boards know that owing
to the value teachers derive from
these meetings and the benefits
carried back to the school that
the state department of education
urges that no deduction be made
from salaries for attendance at
the association
The state department will
render assistance to school auth
orities in enforcing the anti cigar
ette law Do not hesitate to re
port any one who sells or gives
away to minors cigarettes or to
bacco in any form This depart
ment will df necessary request
tli3 governor to enforce the Saek
ett law on any city or county at
torney failing to prosecute any
one who Aiolates this law
The high schools of the county
have a fine attendance in open
ing and a record to exceed that
of last year may be expected of
them There are three schools do
ing four years work two schools
doing two years work and for
this year Marion schools have the
permission from the state depart
ment to do 9th grade work with
resident pupils who desire that
work the grades being accepted
without examination
Teachers meetings willbe held
in five towns Saturday October
7 to plan for further meetings
to be held during the year The
county is so arranged as to dist
ricts that a grouping is thought
advisable in gaining interest and
full attendance at each meeting
It is hoped that school officers
and patrons may be interested in
the meetings and help the teach
ers in making tliem a success An
nouncements will be made of the
programs from time to time

THE OMAHA DENVER
ROUTE IS THE BEST
Autoists Think It Better Than
The Proposed North Platte
Route
The endurance run of 700 miles
pulled off under the supervision
of the Omaha World Herald left
Omaha via the so called North
Platte route passed through Fre
mont Grand Island and North
Platte returning over the Om
aha Denver Trans Continental
route via Hastings Sutton Lin
coln and Omaha
Twenty automobiles and one
automobile truck were partici
pants in this run The autoists
declare that the Omaha Denver
Transcontinental route via Oma
ha Lincoln Hastings Minden
and Denver has a better founda
tion than the road along the
Platte river the so called North
Platte mote They continue to
say that the Platte river road
has a considerable amount of
sand and in rainy weather devel
ops nvud puddles which the Oma
ha Denver Trans Continental is
not bothered with owing to the
natural condition of the soil
While the Omaha Denver Trans
Continental route has a better
foundation on the other hand
considerable more work has been
done on the Platte River road
and it has been more carefully
graded than the Omaha Denver
Trans Continental route and that
the Platte river road is in better
condition than its rival highway
I think unquestionably that
the southern route has the best
possibilities said J A Moran
representative of an automobile
trade journal but right now is
in a frightful shape part of the
way The Platte river road has
done a lot of work upon their
road and the road is now in
shape so tliat it drains well af
ter showers If the people along
the Lincoln Hastings McCook
Holdrege and Denver road would
do equal amount of work their
road would be considerably bet
ter for it will shed water natur
ally if only it is so graded as to
be given a chance
