Monthly Report Of Riverside
School for Sixth Month.

The 10th day of March ends the
sixth month of school.
There has been quite a bit Of
bad weather this month and it
caused some absents that otherwise
would no have been, but of late
there has been decided change
The pupils neither absent nor
tardy during the month are as fol-
lows: Leola, Ambrosia, Lizzie
and Efie White; Rice, Robert and
Ruth Davies.
Those not tardy but absent we're
Hattie Moody and Price Davies.
The one tardy but not absent was
Irwin White. The main cause of
the absents was the snow being
drifted till it was impossible in
some places.
We have just one more month
OF school and we wish that during
that time every patron of the dis
trict would visit the school and
hear some of the lessons recited
and not take the word of others
for their idea of what the school is.
Come and see for yourself. We
also invite you to come to the last
day and enjoy the program which
will be rendered By the children to
the best of their ability. We will
try our best to entertain you for
at least two hours. This does not
mean to wait until the last day to
come but come any time you can
and see the progress of the chill
dren for yourself.
The school has ranked higher in
superintendent this month than
any one of the school term, there
being six zoos. None fell below
80. We hope that next month
we can put 100 in the department
space of each pupils report card.

just now is a fine time to work
the roads. 1t is indeed unfortu-
nate that some of the townships
have not yet appointed their road
oyerseers. This is the time to
work the roads, and the needs are
much greater than the available
means of improving them. We
can't expect to make them the
finest in the world in the first
year, but q concentrated effort on
the part of the residents would
make a marked improvement, and
would set a good example for the
many new people who will come
into this country in the next FIVE
years. An unfaithful road over
seer is one Of the worst enemies
of public Improvement. Be sure
and do your share to fixing the
roads, and you will not regret it.

The City Scales

We have had number of in
quires the past week, from people
who wanted to know the plan on
which the city scales would be
run. We have carefully avoided
any mention of this before, because
we did not want to have a fight
on the proposition from any who
might disagree with the plan which
might have been advanced. We
are perfectly willing to leave that
to the city council to be elected in
April. Then of course, if the
plan doesn't suit we will be there
with the suggestions for another.
Let us leave off any schemes now
that will draw a fight. In other
words, don't fight the city scales
until we get them. Be a booster,
and send us a card. The first
thing to do is to get the scales,
and then figure out the best plan
of conducting the new institution.

Story Of A Country News
paper.

paper.
From the Osborne Farmer.
He had the air of one who knew
it all as he walked over to the
stove and backed up to warm him
self,
What is your paper worth a
year," he asked.
"One dollar and fifty cents"
That said he as he opened the
stove door and shot about half a
pint of Horseshoe, onto the Goals,
lis too much"
Sure"
Why, / can get a Kansas City
paper for twenty-five cents a year,
just as big or bigger than yours.
"Of course. Does it give any
news of your neighborhood, or
will it tell you when court is go
ing to meet, when neighbor dies,
or report anything about your
familyY How many have you in
your familyY"
ME, the old lady and six chill
dren, and they all read too"
Want the paper, don't they9"
They are always telling about
something somebody else saw in
your paper. They want it and /
thought if it didn't cost too much
/ would make 'em a present of it.
But l won't pay a dollar and a half
for any paper"
'No9 Three cents a week is
too much for you to pay for an
hours pleasure a week each for
your six children and your hard
working wife. If you would chew
five per cent less tobacco every
year you could pay for two cop
les"
swell, / won't pay it just the
same." and out he went. In five
minutes he was in the barber shop
asking for the last issue. He sat
down and read every line of it.
Then our whole soul filled with
sharp remorse as we thought of
the two thousand other hapless
victims who ARE paying dollar
and a half a year under the delu-
ion that they are getting their
moneys worth.

The state legislature seems to
have caught the same germ that so
recently demoralized the last Con
gress. A more glittering case of
unfalthfulness to party pledges has
not come under the observation of
the citizens of the state for some
time. The worst feature of the
whole thing seems to be the fact
that Stubs is about to veto the
few good measures passed during
the last lesion. He was so intent
on having the legislature pass his
pet measures that they neglected
look after their own party pledg-
es. Stubbs is a cross between a
democrat and a republican, yet he
doesn't seem to have much luck in
securing the support of either
faction.

Of the forty-fve delegates who pre-
sided over the various sessions of the
Fourth Ecumenical Conference, To
ronto, Canada, October ALL, 1911,
Bishop C. S. Smith of the African
Methodist Episcopal Church, alone re-
ceived special mention by the press.
The Christian Guardian, of Toronto,
Canada, which was the official organ
of the Conference, made this observa-
ton:
Bishop c. S. Smith made good
chairman. With the urbanity of his
race, he gave some liberty where 9TH
er presiding officers rigidly forbade
Perhaps that lent itself to freedom
of discussion which is one of the best
features of the conference"
The Christian Advocate, Nashville,
Tenn the officialorgan of the Metho-
dist Episcopal Church, South, gave ex-
preston as follows:
zone of the best presiding officers
of the conference is a colored man

dist Episcopal Church He is ready
and appears equal to all demands"
