County School Letter

There will be a district teachers
meeting at Avon on Saturday,
February 3rd.
The next regular teachers *
animation will be held in Tyndall
on March 14th and 18th.
That there have been nc school
notes published the last two weeks
is due to the fact that the pre-
parations for the boys and girls
meetings at Springfield and Tyn-
dali and school officers meeting
together with other Office work has
kept Us so busy that it was i'm
possible to devote the necessary
time to them.
Miss Hazel Klima is doing very
good work in Ochsner school.
During the extreme cold weather
there was az exceptionally good at
tendance In that school.
The Misses Elsa Conwal, Jennie
Dykstra, Helen Kelley, and Mrs.
Mary Wood brot their pupils in to
the Springfield Corn Show on Fri
day the 18th.
Mrs. Alice Schroll and her pu,
pills captured first prize Tor tine
largest rural school delegation at
the Tyndall Farmers Institute.
The determination of the teacher
and pupils Of this school and the
attitude of the school board are
very commendable. Owing to ait
oversight in reading the notice
sent ont it was understood by
them that Monday was Boys and
Girls day. SO they came in Oh
Monday twenty-five strong. But
when they found that Tuesday was
really the day set for that contest
they returned again next day with
a delegation of nineteen members
and won first prize. Taking into
consideration that they came ten
miles there is much credit due
them.
The other schools which filed
lists of delegates at the Iyndall
farmers institute are as follows:
Bambas-18 pupils, Nedved-19 pu-
pills, Vilhauser-16, Koupal-15 Dun
woodie II, Cottonwood Grove-11,
Pleasant Valley-1O, Vlasak.7, Zoe.
nig-7, Hughes-8, V6llek-11 and
Hauck-7. Taking those with a
considerable number of others
that were not registered the total
number of rural pupils over ten
years of age easily exceeds 200.
To Joseph Povandra aged 10
years belongs the credit of exhibit.
ing the finest specimen of corn
that has been shown in this coun.
ty this year. It was a ye!lcw dent
ear of the Wimple strain. Mr..
Palm the corn expert who has done
much judging over the state pro-
nounced it to be one of the best
specimens that he has g any
where.
The distinction of being an ex-
ceptionally good bread maker goes
to Miss Flora Bussey of Independ-
ent district. She won first prize
IN this class at Springfield and at
Tyndall, and her exhibits would
have stood a strong chance of win
ming even in a women's depart
ment.
In fact, it seems as if there is
an unusual disposition to do things
well in the Independent neighbor-
hood. Reference to the lists of
prizes awarded in the boys depart
ment both at Springfield and at
Tyndall shows that Frank and
Milo Kramar of that same dis
trict carried off most of the best
prizes in the classes in. which they
entered. Their exhibits of single

SOUTHERN HONOR
MEN AT ANNAPOLIS.

Though Michigan cadet leads the
graduating class at the Naval Acad-
envy, five of the first ten graduates
hail from the South. Two are from
Alabama, none from New York Massa-
chusetts, Ohio or Illinois, and only
one, a Kansas midshipman, represents
the great West on the academy honor
roll.
Unlike the universities, the student
population of Annapolis is proportion
ally representative of the whole coun-
try, and that Southern cadets should
gain more than their share of the
prizes is of considerable interest.
Are Southern boys better students
or do they pursue older-fashioned
ideals? The theory that in the North
and West the best undergraduate tai
ent at the universities is destined fol
business or professional careers does
not hold in the case of the Nava
Academy, where all students are fit

work. And certainly the test of schol
arship and discipline is as severe
there as in any academic course. Thu
