Tic Dornal

Today finishes the third week Of
the Neosho county Normal. The
attendance has been good and the
instruction superior.
There are always some hangers-or
at these Normals who do not attend
for any great benefit they may re-
celye, but merely because it is the
fashion, or because they can have a
good time. This year, however,
the number of that kind is very
small. Generally, the teachers,
both active and prospective, as well
as the high school pupils, are dill
gently at work, striving to get the
most possible good out of the OPP
portunities.
When the work is closed up al
the end of next week, we are in
clined to the opinion that this will
be voted one of the most practical,
profitable institutes ever held in the
county.

enrolled up to date, with the a1-
