The BANNER mentioned the fact
Friday morning that one of the
teachers in the public schools went to
the Bellville maifest without getting
excused by the trustees or notifying
the children that he would not be on
hand to teach them. The teacher
alluded to was Prof. Kruger, and
no blame appears to. attach to him
after the matter is explained. He
didn't want to go to Bellyille, but
the Light Guard band, of which he
is member, wanted him to and he
appointed Mr.. Ben S. Rogers to see
the trustees. Mr.. Rogers saw one
or two of them, but forgot to see
the others, and Prof. Kruger left
under the impression that the matter
had been attended to.

arduous part of the work every day,

so far as the care of the fowls is con-
