Lexington, Ky, Oct 20-The
Kentucky Natural Gas Co which
supplies this city with light and
fuel gas, held its annual meeting
here today and reelected its old
directors and stockholders. In
his annual report President Joseph
Seep says
In the old Menifee county field
sixteen wells were completed dur
ing the year ending October l.,
1911, eleven of which are produc-
ing and five dry. the company now
having ninety-one producing wells"
Continuing Mr.. seep adds that
while the supply OF gas from the
Menifee county field is sufficient
for present needs it is decreas-
ing and that so far efforts to
find new pools have been unsuc-
cessful He intimates that it may
be necessary, in order to get the
needed gas, to extend mains to
the West Virginia field and as
that will require large outlay of
cash MIR. Seep recommends that
all dividends be passed for time
-'that the necessary money may be
accumulated in the treasury for
the purpose of perpetuating the !,
business"

ought TO be done. Two things,

office work; second the expense ~.

one ought to be employed 70 do
office work when you are in the

you are In the office. It would
be real economy. It would save
the county money and the children

2. Organization. Your schools ,
ought TO be reorganlzed along mod
ern lines as fast as public opinion
and conditions viii permit, At such
points as Blaine, webbyille, Falls
burg and Richardson, consolidated
schools ought TO be organized. They
can be II tho people around those

bet'e- and cheaper than one-room
schools They are the schools OF
the future There is no record OF
a community ever going back 70
one-room schools after having con-
soiidated schools.
Whore large consolidated schools
can not be maintained. two room
schools ought TO be established:
for two-;eaeher school ia far more
efficient than a one-teacher school.
or course there are some places
where ono-room school must be
maintained for years TO come, In
such schools only The best teachers
should be employed. II takes
genius TO teach one efficient one
