Down at Montgomery the at
tendance is light but very good
for t b enrolment they have.
Miss Rae Robinson is teacher
and has endeavored to do them
good work. This district like
many others needs some repairs
on the house and a few more
pupils.
Over at Mt. Leonard they have
closed $ C h 90 on account of
measles and will likely not take
up the work until next Septem-
Der.
Green Ridge has just started
up again after a vacation Of two
weeks on account OF measles.
This school will Save some rursl
graduates this year and they are
very anxious ~ win the dag offer
ed for the highest grades. Miss
lena Thompson is teacher and is
doing good work.
Hume schools have been clos
ed for two weeks on account OF
measles and scarlet fever. The
attendance in the lower grades
I IS yet very light and the work
has been greatly interfered with
IN these grades The eight year
pupils in this school are inter
ested in county graduation and
several will likely take the work.
The well at this place was j n
rather an unsanitaTy condition
but the board expressed a will
ingness 10 look after the matter
at the first opportunity. W g
think this board will offer q
scholarship to the boy and girl
making the highest average WHO
selects this school.
Up at Worland they are going
to have some graduates for I h G
first timo, The attendance is
fairly good and those attending
take a good interest in the work.
They are going 10 set out some
shade trees and are going 10 dc

modations for about IS patients, and

The sanitsrium occupies what is
