DICKINSON GETS 1896.



Although Dickinson county is amply
able to care for its own flood sufferers
and does not need outside aid, the
state relief fund OF $4,000 has beer
extended to this county. 1t is stated
in the Topeka papers that 80 families
are destitute here and 1926 10 ap'
propristed.
Just how the information reached
the relief fund committee nobody
seems TO know. Gov. Bailey wrote
to County Clerk Jacobs asking what
help was needed. By order Of the
county commissioners a reply was
sent that Dickinson county needs no
help whatever from outside, that all
who are in distress will be cared for
by our home people. This ought to
have been conclusive.
Saline asked none, Cloud made no
report Of need, Clay sent word that it
needed none,

GOOD SCHOOL ADVICE.
supt. Dyer Notes Fault Of Teaching
Plans.


Supt. Dyer has issued al attractive
announcement OF the normal institute
to be held here June 20 to July %.
He gives the school officers this excel
lent hint: Zone thing that has always
seemed wrong to me Is the promiscu-
Gus and upsystematic manner In
which teachers hunt for schools and
district officers employ them. There
is no reason why one schoolboard
should be flooded with forty aPplica.
tions and another school receive none.
No inexperienced teacher should "a.
csive the highest wages, nor should
they contract TO teach the most diff.
cult schools. No successful teacher
Of long experience should teach for
the lowest wages, nor for the eff
cheney Of the work Of the county
should they be employed in the light
er schools"
The school meetings are 10 be held
July so. Two important changes
made 10 recent school laws provide.
first. that each district Ia the state
must maintain 3 school st least Eve
months in the year; second. that the
annual school meeting cannot decide
whether . man or woman shall teach

ago, the contract has never been
awarded. and IL is said court is watt
ing for the proposals for the odessa
highway. The members of the court
are divided on the question. and it is
the opinion of some people that a COM
promise viii be effected and contracts
awarded for both roads or at least a
portion of each. 1t is not likely that
any work will be done on these roads,
however, before next spring.

It is said il viii be a nine-inch instead
