Richland, April 17.-Special: Sun
shine was welcomed yesterday and
made things look like spring. The
farmers will be very busy as long as
the sun shines.
The Richland school closed last
tuesday. Owing to the short notice
that the session would close so soon
the contests were not held, as no one
was ready, but we hope to have them
later. The contests we wanted to
have while school was in progress
were FOR the declaimers medal, the
elocution medal and the reading
medals. The medals for scholarship,
attendance, etc, could be determined
by the teachers, and medals for
these will be presented on the night
on which the other contests are held.

Chester Wednesday.

as well to stop school one month and

go on the other month and let the

Little Rock, Oct. 7.-S ta t e Superintendent George B. Cook has just returned from attend. ing the National Conservation Con gress in Kansas City, which he reports was a most success ful and important meeting. He was chairman of committee of five representing the National Education Association. T h e committee reported resolutions endorsing the vocational educa- tion bill now pending in Congress providing for the training of teachers to give scientific in- struction in the elements of agri culture in the rural schools. Recognizing that the children of the Uuited States are recognized as the most precious resource of this nation, the committee fur ther reported,
 Resolved, that in the system of free schools all the children should be trained for good citi. zenship and for the useful in- dustries; that owing to the rapid ly changing and increasing com plex social and economic condi. tions now going on in all parts of the union, that our public schools should make amyle provision for instructing the youth of h e land in the more important oc- equations in which our people are engaged and that parents and teachers should counsel to- gether to determine, if possible, for what vocation the child is best adapted"

 We had some interesting talks from Messrs Sam Hamilton, Dosia Easterling and l.. D. Gallo way, all was appreciated by the school.
 A memorial service was held in memory of our beloved teach CT, Mrs. Barton Saunders, who passed away on Friday morning, Sept. 29. It was an impressive service. Several talks were made concerning Mrs, Saunders life.
 There were ninety-three pu- pills enrolled and many more will en roll later. We were glad to welcome the new pupils to our school. Fourteen enrolled in the high school department. We regret that some of our high school pupils could not enroll until the second week of school. The prospects for this year of school are brighter than they ever have been. The pupils seem to take more interest in their studies than they have hereto. fore; the parents seem more anxious to send their children to school.
 We are working for the state appropriation and if we succeed in getting it. pupils from all parts of the country can get free tuition in our high school depart ment.

RATS CAUSE PLAGUE

question may arise whether the local
authorities may not have to compel
the assistance of individual owners
and occnpiers in destroying rats on
their premises and rendering their
premises and food stores fairly safe
against invasion by rats"
In December. 1910, a systematic ex-
animation of rats from belt Of coun-
try round the infected districts was
carried out. Altogether 6,O71 rats
were examined and none showed
traces OF plague. Rat fieas from the
infected area were also examined, and
1t was found that the number per rat
is small. From 56S rats only 5S4 heas
were obtained, and of these about half
were Of a kind that does not bite
man. The other kind readily bites
man and was found in many cases to
be infected. The test was made in
November. and 1t is not certain wheth.
er the comparative freedom OF the
English rat from fleas holds good in
the summer.
The probable channel by which
plague was introduced was infected
rats, imported with foreign grain. But
it is pointed out that no other in
stance, with the possible exception of
Glasgow. has been known in this
