The COUNTY RURAL
SCHOOL PARAGRAPHS

W. A. Lawes has accepted the
position as teacher of Apple
Creek Valley, Miss Hines having
resigned to accept a position in
the Cape Girardeau schools.
A. j. Hit is teaching the Pop
lar Ridge school. He taught in
the district a number of years
ago. The people remembered
his work there and this year re-
called him again to serve them.
They now have a beautiful site
on high, well drained ridge.
Irwin Schreiner is serving his
initial term as pedagogue at
Liberty. Conditions are favor
able for a successful year.
The Hilderman school under
A. B. Lessly has made marked
improvements. New steps have
been made, stoves polished and
pictures furnished. The attend
aace and work is excellent. The
improvements were made by
teacher and pupils.
Favorable reports comes from
Burfordville schools. A town.
ship meeting will be held there
on the 2lst and 22nd inst. Fri
day night a meeting of school
officials and patrons. Saturday
afternoon the teachers and Sat-
urday night, a program will be
rendered by pupils and teachers.
The Campster school is the
first school in the county to in
stall modern heater instead of
the rusty box stove. Many 9TH
er schools are improving their
heating apparatus by buying
jackets for their stoves.
In a previous issue one school
reported seventeen perfect at
tendance certificates" issued the
first month. The Snider school
taught by Mrs. Cora Conway,
reports nineteen, two more than
the first mentioned school. The
daily average the first month
was 80 per cent of the enroll
ment, which was forty-six. This
is a fine record, who can beat it?
Four certificates of Award"
were issued last week to pupils
of Fruitland [Sawyer] school.
The perfect attendance sys-
TEN" was begun in the school
last year. Hugh Morton, Allen
Randol. Anna Morton and Verna
Anderson were neither absent
nor tardy for one hundred days.
The school at Crump had the
largest enrolment in the county
last year. They are going to
have as many more this year.
The daily attendance is sixty or
more. Too many for one teacher
to teach. A half days visit found
Mr.. Thomas busy. Energy on
part of patrons, pupils and
teacher can accomplish great
things even under unfavorable
circumstances.
Just to drive by Millerville
school gives the impression that
things are being done there.

plained When Cocoanuts Were Examined.

Officers, clerks and janitors en- ployed by the Brownsville custom house have for the last few days been suffering from a strange attack re- sembling the dreaded sleeping sick ness, and the symptoms were becom- ing so accentuated that the matter was getting to be serious, until this morning a sack of cocoanuts ad- dressed to a Chinaman at San Anto- nio, Tex. was hauled out into the cor ral of the custom house for more con. venient keeping.
 The sack of coooanuts arrived by ex. press from Tampico by way of Mon. terey several days ago and had not been called for.
 The express messenger, baggage master and postal clerk. all of whom occupy the same car, were last asleep when the train pulled into the station. The express messenger was lying with his head upon the sack and was the most difficult of the three to awaken.
 When 1t was found that they were not drunk examination of the contents or tie sack was made and 1t was found that one of the cocoanuts was merely the shell, the space within con. taining opium. The sack was seized by the authorities on the Texas side Of the river and was thrown carelessly into a corner of the office room. It will from now on, however, be stored l.,
 In the yard until 1t is disposed of through the usual methods. Mexican Herald
