PUBLIC SCHOOLS.

To the prospective settler or newcomer,
the question Of adequate public school
facilities is one of great Importance. In
this regard Bear Lake is particularly
blessed. Every school district in the
county has a splendid school building,
and in all or nearly all, special taxes are
levied III addition to the county and
state appropriations, for their mainten-
ance. The school terms run from five to
nine months. The teachers are carefully
chosen and the standard Of the schools is
high.
In addition to the public schools there
is church academy school under the
supervision of the Latter Day Saints. A
magnificent building, To cost perhaps
S5O,0OO is now being erected at Paris for
the home Of the academy.
At Paris also is ii Presbyterian school
presided over by an able teacher.
In Montpelier there are two districts,
which no doubt will be shortly merged in
to one independent district. When they
are complete high school system will be
inaugurated.

considerable. In addition the banks
have gained In the subtreasury S256, 000

must be reckonsd, so that the loss on all
