ated and physically fit" because OF
indulgence in trap shooting. To break
the elusive, whirling clay birds with a
minimum OF misses, is what the tran
shooter strives for and the sport and
direct benefit he gets out of it cannot be
equalled by any other form Of recreation.
But he must have a good gun to in
sure good results. A fast gun-wel-
balanced-natural pointing and non

County School Notes

On August 10th District No. "a,
known as the Clibon District WIS at
tached by the County Superintendent
to Dist. No. IL, known as Elbert. This
consolidation will be advantageous to
all parties concerned, lowering the spe-
cial school levy for the tax Payers,
while at the same time giving to mum
ber of school children the advantages
of nine months term OF school under
the supervision of higher salaried teach
ers than was possible in small dis
trict.
The Elbert people should see to it,
that the now extensive rural por-
ton of her District is gwen repre-
sentation on the school board at the
Spring election, and that shed is put
up on the school grounds for the pro
lection of the horses used in the trans
portation OF the children coming in
from the country.
Districts l6 ana II, located north OF
Elizabeth known as the Finley and
High Point Districts we're consolidated
In July. The patrons and tax payers oil
the districts assembled in their Union
Meeting voted unanimously to name
their new school 1.-The Progressive
School,
Mrs KERN has been working for more
than two years to effect consolidation
in number OF instances thru the coun.
ty. She feels that where the roads are
fair, and the distances not too great,
that districts OF low valuation, requir-
ing special levy of from 10 to Is mills
to support email school four or five
months year, should be consolidated
with an adjoining district. Such CON
solicitations result IN longer school trims,
better salariad and better qualified
teachers and these improved advantages
for the children are usually accompan-
led by an equal or less special school
tax
The greatest educational problem
OF today is that of furnishing our rural
children with graded schools, trained
teachers and High School advantages
and the working out Of the conditions
peculiar to each locality; persuading
the tax payers and patrons to adopt
and assist in working out new ideas:
these are few Of the problems con
fronting school officials.
Prof. Alps Of the Elizabeth High
School will have an assistant tnis year
Kiowa will probably soon be adorned
by splendid new four roomed brick
school house.
1t is time that the school houses over
the County were cleaned and freshen-
ed in preparation for another school
year.
The District Secretaries OF the County
are to be congratulated on the prompt.
ness with which they have sent in their
Annual Reports.
The Institune at the Springs was de
ciared the best we have ever had. The
