Report of Needs Creek School.

I have an enrolment of s.. The attendance is betterathan ever before for a winter school. There has been eleven cases of tardiness during two and one-half months. The second monthly examination was held week before last and the six averaging the highest grades are as follows: Luther Sims, Clarence Woodruff, Sam Glover, Clara Woodruff, Lottie Glover and Lucy Woodruff. Each of their grades were above S5 per cent. The interest created by the school money" has not waned in the least. The last question l gave ths lan- guage class on examination was a short composition on Good Be- havior in School. In about ten minutes several good ones were handed in and I selected the fol- lowing and send for publication as it may be a benefit to some of the school boys and girls of this coun- ty. It was written by Luther Sims, a pupil of fourteen years: Good behavior in school is an honor to any boy or girl, even large or small. A boy or girl that the teacher can rely upon is always noticed. Even a poor boy can make something if he will try. Abraham Lincoln was very poor, but studied and master ed what books he could get and made a president of the United States. You have the same chance if you try. The boy that behaves good is liked by everyone. Good behavior is one thing people talk about a great deal, and the boy or girl that is best behaved is the one that is best liked. All of us can accomplish this if we try. So let's all practice good behavior til we become perfect for honor and re- spect demands it. The habits we form in school go with us through life, so let's try to make our future life one of perfection" So you see there's something doing in the "backwoods.
