Scdgwick county is blessed with
nn excellent public school system
In fact there is no better system
Of schools to be found in Color
ado, or in any other state for that
matter, than those of Sed gwick
county. The various school
boards are composed of men and
women who take special interest
in securing good teachers, and in
otherwise furnishing good school
faciIitles for their districts. Pu-
pills graduated out of the district
schools are prepared to enter the
county high school, and the course
in the high school prepares the
student for entrance to the state
university or any other reputable
university of higher education.
Citizens of the county can not
appreciate too highly their educa.
tional advantages, and they should
be willing, and doubtless are vii
ling, to spend any reason
able amount of money for main
tanning the the schools at their
present high standard.
