Mrs Osborne, of Cortland, ant
Mrs. Campbell, of Lost Corner, each
have interesting schools. CORTLAND
pupils are going to make a special
effort to even up on some of their
work this year, and our prediction is
that they will succeed. Lost Corner is
preparing to have an entertainment
the proceeds to go for library. Many
teachers are making quite showing
along this line.
Enterprise school, in Charlotte
township, was in the midst of their
examination. They were having but
little trouble with the work and will
want harder list next time. Miss
Blanche Burns is teacher and has a
good interest among her pupils. They
expect to turn out five rural grad.
yates next spring at the close of
school.
tits hardly necessary to say Nyhart
school is doing well under Prof. j. C. |
Crosswhite. The ninth grade is be-
ing taught and every pupil seems to
be trying to Guido the others. Few
schools have a better interest or
more active lot Of pupils.
Belmont school, in Charlotte town.
ship, is doing fine under Prof. Nc
Michael, of Vernon county. We left
some work for his pupils to have
ready when the schools visited again,
and so sure are we that the work will
be ready and waiting makes us anx-
ious to visit them at our first opportu-
nifty. We know the pupils of this
school and know they are not only
willing to work, but are anxious for !
any test.
Grand View school was not in ses- 7
sion No nday on account of the teach =
er, Miss Catherine Hawkins, being :
sick. The pupils and patrons of this 7
school are well pleased with their :.
eacher and have good reasons for be- =
ng pleased. g.
Mulberry school is progressing u
nicely under Prof. Jas. H. Pahlman. h
They need a new school house and
mould have a new location or more D
'lay ground where they are. The NJ
'uplls are working well, and we think .,
he teacher is going to try to leave y.
hem better classified than he found ~

Liberty, in West Point township,
'as having their examination when -
listed and as a result did not do ~
luch reciting. We have made 8,
'ade with the pupils of this school r,
lie terms are agreed upon and when TT
re 60 over there again every thing or
NIL be adjusted and the affair closed, -
We think it best to not give the parti- an
llars just now, but will say there is -,
DING to be some work done in that

Amsterdam schools are doing ex- IT,
client work with Prof. CALLAHAN as ~

1t Prof. CALLAHAN is doing two 81 ~
ears OF high school work. He al. =
rnates his work according to the -,
'urse OF study and is doing good -, -,
ork. Mrs. Archer is doing some of taa
e best primary number work we va
I'VE seen. Her work is all good,
1t this is especially good. The sp'
