Dist. No. 57 , Maude Heck ,
eacher-School closed Wednes-
day with an Arbor day program.
Several visitors were present and
and helped us plant trees. Myrtle
Yocum and Carrie Wamsley have
completed the 8th grade work
and received their common school
diplomas. We gave an evening
program , after which those pres-
ent voted on the most popular
young lady. The successful can-
didate received a box of bon bens
and the school $25.92. This has
already been expended for library
books. We have all enjoyed our
school work during the year
Dist. No. 9-We have four
weeks of school yet , to complete
a nine months term. The inter-
est manifested is still good , even
better than in the fall and although -
though only fourteen are now enrolled -
rolled , the school is progressing
nicely. We enjoyed a very pleasant .
ant visit from our , county superin-
tendent last week and wish he
could come oftener. We could
not observe Heroe's Day and Ar-
bor Day , too , so we are having
memory gems and morning talks
for the former and will have a
program for the latter.
Dist. No. 49-Seven menthes of
school are now taught and the interests -
terests of the pupils in their school
work is not only good but increas-
ing. Our school room walls are
ornamented with maps in addition
to attractive and instructive pic-
tures , engravings , etc , making
our room quite attractive and
pleasant , the leading one among
the ' latter being that of The _
Father of His Country. " On Fri-
day afternoons of each week 'Ne
employ about an hour in ciphering j
and spelling matches in which
exercises much interest is shown
and not a. little excitement arous-
ed in friendly rivalry. We think
that these special exercises are
not only entertaining but highly
beneficial. We have one more
month to complete the term.
