The Butler weekly times. (Butler, Mo.) 1881-1918, 1912-04-25

am pleased to say that most Of oul
teachers did wen on the reading cir.
Gle work, in fact We have had the
, best years work we have ever had
along this line. Some teachers who
not attended these meetings will be
greatly disappointed when they gel
their grades on professional work.
The papers on rural graduation are
about all in and some of them graded.
l hope to have the grades out and re-
ported on by the first of May or soon
er. Several pupils have already vol
unteered to help on the program and
others will. l am sure. We want a
goodly number as this is the most
pleasing feature OF the exercises.
These exercises will be held May II
in the circuit court room in Butler.
, All persons interested in education
are invited to attended and a special
invation is extended to the teachers.
Those who have graduates are should
come and see that their pupils are
here if necessary.
The enumeration blanks and esti-
mates are here and will be mailed out
this week. Clerks should see that
these are in on time as they are very
important. The Rail Road man did
not come at all last year so the coun-
ty clerk expects him early this year,
and the only safe way is to have these
in on time. 1t will take no longer
to do this the first oflMay than the
first of June, as some did last year.
The report to the county clerk, which
is enclosed also. must be sworn to
before some one authorized to admin
lister oaths. Do not send them in
without this, or where convenient,
come to Butler and the clerk will adj
minister these oaths and | shall be
glad to assist you in making these it
you care for it. If clerks will see
that teachers file term reports here
we will have all the data necessary
to make this report. All but one has
done this so far and am very sure
that the others will.
Miss Ora Morgan of Smoky Row
school, in sending in her report, gave
the following items OF interest: Two
of the pupils in sixth grade arithme-
tic solved all the problems in the
years work without the assistance of
the teacher. One pupil in the IA"
class did. not miss a word in the SPELL
ing recitation during the term. On
Arbor Day they set out twenty-seven
trees-fifteen cedars and twelve
naples. She closes by saying that
she has greatly enjoyed the years
work. Miss, Morgan's pupils say
they have enjoyed the years work
equally well and all are satisfied and
pleased with Miss Morgan's efforts
and they can do no better than en-
oloy her for another year.
So far Harmony school has furnish
I'd more graduates than any other.
They have sixteen taking all the work
Or part. Nineteen were there for '
Miss Myrtle Randall {
S teacher and is one of our most pro- 7
,ressive and enthusiastic workers.
She has taught this school for the
,ast two years and while it is one OF I
'ur largest schools it is one of the a
,est, due to the fact that they employ I
he best teachers available all the (
ii the time. Miss Randall is think
ng of attending school the coming S
ear but we are all much in hopes Il
he will remain in the work here, as n
We need her. Q

WoRTH.G0RDER

Crookston Daily Times: The home
of the brides parents, Mr.. and Mrs.
c. Gorder, 1872 Hurlbut street, was
the scene of a pretty wedding Tues
day evening when their daughter,
Miss Gena Gorder, became the bride
of Albert Worth, of Bemidji. The
ceremony was performed at seven
thirty o'clock and Rev. w. G. Hodg-
son, of the Methodist church, Off
ciated. The house was made attrac-
tive for the occasion with quantities
of cut flowers and ferns and during
the ceremony the bridal party stood
in bower of flowers. Just at the
Kathleen Gorder, sisters of the bride,
entered the room carrying the ring
in a basket of flowers. They were
followed by the. bride and her maid
of honor, Miss Jenny Gorder, sis
ter of the bride, and Mr.. Worth and
his best man, Jack Arne. The bride
wore gown of white embroidered
wolfe and carried a bouquet of brides
roses. Miss Gorder as maid of honor
was attired in pale pink voile and
carried large bouquet of pink car
nations. After the extending of con-
gratulations, fve-course wedding
dinner was served at which covers
were laid for the immediate friends
and relatives. Mr.. and Mrs. Worth
left last evening for Grand Forks,
where they will visit friends a few
days, after which they will go to Be-
midi to make their future home.
They will be at home to their friends
in their new home after the fifth OF
September. The bride is we'll known
in Crookston and has many friends
who will wish her great happiness
The past three years she has spent
at Bemidji, employed at the telephone
office, and has many friends there
who will receive her in her new
home. Mr.. Worth is the assistant
postmaster in that city and his host
of friends will hasten to extend best
wishes and congratulations.
