The fifty-fourth annual session of
the Nebraska State Teachers’ Associa
tion was held at Omaha the 3, 4 and
5 of this month. Holt County was
well represented there, but the attend
ance would have been much larger es
pecially if the announcements of the
meeting had reached me in time to be
mailed to my rural teachers.
Since October 7th the following
schools have been visited: District
No. 156, No. 228, No. 163, No. 137,
No. 108, No. 227, No. 23, No. 138, No.
97, No. 92, No. 80, No. 192, No. 76, No.
36, No. 88, No. 110, No. 39, No. 50,
No. 128, No. 55, No. 157, No. 20, No.
241, No. 47 and No. 125, making a total
of 42 schools visited since September
6th. A much larger enrollment than
in former years was noted in most of
the schools. Also the attendance waS
especially good. Following the visit
to each school a report which consisted
of suggestions in regard to text books,
needful equipment, etc., was sent to
each director, hoping to secure co
operation in the work of improving
our schools.
The State Department is planning
a survey of the rural schools regard
ing standardization. Any school board
in the rural schools wishing to make
theirs a standard school should write
me for information, so they can be pre
pared to meet the requirements for
next year. A number of schools in
the county may become standardized
by adding just a little more equip
ment.

District No. 125, had a box social and

ceeds of the dinner amounted to $90

school.

Gratitude.
Punch (London): A clerk employed
behind the counter at a postoffice in
the south of England recently rescued
a young girl from drowning. In order
to show their appreciation of the
young man’s bravery, local residents
have now decided to purchase their
stamps at his postoffice.
COULDN’T WAIT.
Punch, London—It is reported that
the captain of a village fire brigade
recently declined to call his men out
to a fire because it was raining. Un
fortunately the owner of the fire was
too busy to keep it going till the first
fine day.
THE MISSOURI SERGEANT.
American Legion Weekly—“Smith,”
roared Sergeant Jones, “haven’t I
told you not to leave your billet after
10 o’clock?”
“Yes,” answered Private Smith
meekly, "but I have the captain’s oral
orders to-”
“You have, have you? Nbne of
that, young feller. Show me the cap
tain’s oral orders. Just show them to
me.”

“it’s more like
a Smoke!”
There you have Spur’s big reason in a
nutshell. It’s what an American
Legion man said after lie had puffed
a Spur for a moment or two.
He knew cigarettes. Found how com
forting a good one is. Had 16 months
in France. And he \new what he was
talking about when he said:
“More Li\e a Smoke”—
That’s because you can taste the good
tobacco in Spurs. You get the aroma
of a new and delicious blend of the
finest leaf grown in Turkey, fine Bur
ley and other home-grown tobaccos.
Unmarred by starch because the seam
is crimped not pasted.
Longer and sweeter in the smoking—
slower in the burning. Fresh and
fragrant as you open the pack, be
cause it’s triple-wrapped.
Priced to be popular and packaged to
be select.
See for yourself—“more /i^e a Smoke.
