LONG ON THE JOB.

Prof S J. Booher will not be at the
head of the Loomis public school next
year, and it will hardly be the same
school without Prof. Booher training
the young ideas of the camp. Prof.
Dooher has been in charge of the
Loomis educational institution sOr SO
long time that he was looked upon
as permanent fixture He will be
missed by the adult residents as well
as by the pupils of the school, and the
trustees will have to go long way
and do some careful selecting before
principal will be found to fill the
place as it has been filled under the
old management. Prof. Booher has
been principal of the Loomis school
for six or seven years. He took the
school, when it was some run down.
and a spirit of insubordination was
manifest among the pupils. A pow
erful man physically, yet quiet and
kindly of disposition, he soon convinc-
ed those inclined to be unruly that he
was boss of the premises, and very
soon a meeker lot of youngsters and
more orderly school could not be
found in the county. Nor did he rule
by force entirely. lie treated the
scholars with a kindness and consid-
Grafton that won their respect and
confidence. The kids realized his
ability to innict punishment, if pun
ishment was necessary, and they dia
not force him to exercise his reserve
strength. And the school has -four
ished and the scholars have made
rapid advance ment under his tutor
ship, the record OF the past year sur
passing all previous years. Prof.
Booher will go upon his fruit ranch
near riverside, and devote his atten
ton to orchard culture.

At its close the visitors and local women were seated in the ball room and an afternoon of delightful charm fol- lowed. Each of the speakers, Mrs. Phil lips in introducing and the eminent visit ing women in responding, held her au- dience in rapt attention throughout bril- liant programme. An absolute stiffness, the stiffness of concentrated attention, was the impression that greeted one from the entrance doors, and the audience that listened so interestedly filled the big room to oyer flowing. One of the most gracious incidents of the occasion was the musical programme which was presented by Mrs. Cherles Bowman, pianist, Mrs. John D. Turner, violinist, and Miss Berte Hutch inss, soprano.
