L H.Currier The joint meeting of the teachers of Sherman and Buffalo counties was a very profitable and pleasant affair. The morning was very threatening and stormy but in spite of tbis fact the meeting was well attended. Near ly all of the teachers from the south of our county were present. All of the Rockville teachers, some from Litchfield, some from Hazard and three from Loup City were also in at tendance. The names of all teachers in attendance from this county will be given in the school items next week. The fact that there were more teachers in attendance from Sherman county than than there were from Buffalo county speaks well for the teachers of our county. The meeting was a success and furnishad an op portunity for good fellowship on edu cational matters. A great many help ful points in teaching were set forth. At the close of the program there * was a basket ball game between the ' teachers of Sherman county and Buf- ' falocounty. Buffalo won the game 1 by a score of 12 to 0. Prof. O.
