Herbert Shore, w. L. Clemmons
and w. H. Cook, all members in
good standing of the Annanias
Club at Rives, enjoyed a little out
ing and diversion in the line of fish

ing the trip. All anecdotes were
required, under penalty, to measure
up to the standard, ard that meant
that no mean or small fabrication
was tolerated. Every man was ex-
pected to do his duty and the result
was a glorious success.

days at home in Union City, having

country, which comprises the great
est wheat belt on earth, are in a
happy, prosperous condition and
that the immediate future holds
great anticipations for them. We

favorite pursuit. He was a local
merchant for many years, but IN

genial and profitable occupation.

Rives Graded School.

Mr.. B. F. Watson. brother of Rev.
E. L. Watson of this city. has been
elected by the Board of Trustees to
succeed Prof. w. H. Cook as princi-
pal of the Riyes Graded School.
Mr.. Watson will be assisted by Miss
Ava Scoggins and Miss Blanche
Bond, who were employed hereto
fore with Mr. Cook. Mr.. Cook re-
tires after many years continuous
service in the sehoolroom for lit
tie intermission a nd rest fro m
school work. The tate of his
health was not encouraging and he
decided upon retirement for that
reason. In the meantime he will
probably visit the Western country
for the purpose of recuperation.
Prof. Cook has made the Rives
school one OF the very best in the
county, and we anticipate that the
new administration will maintain
the standard, although tina re-
quires great amount of executive
and technical ability. Few men in
this section of country are recog-
nized as the equals of Cook in the
schoolroom. He has with native
ability, application and energy won
his spurs as an educator, at the
same time he has given Rives the
creditable appellation of being a
school center, and that will place
a great responsibility upon his sue
cessor, who will, we understand, be
equal to the emergency.
