Fifteen Miles South
The peaches are not all killed anc
there is also a good prospect fol
apples.
Harvey Eldridge and w. M
Hines were trading in Meade last
Saturday.
Dewey Deck visited the school
the last day. Miss Eva Davidson
and Jessie Cochran were mattresses.
The time is here when we can't
tell winter from summer only by the
leaves on the trees. We had snow
last Friday for half day and then
it cleased off into a summer after
noon.
Planting time is here again and as
we "reap what we SOW" if we do not
get busy and sow we may be out of
feed next winter. A larger crop
than has ever before been planted is
being put out this spring.
Some of those people who were so
tired of drouthy Kansas last sum-
mer ought to be back east now where
some of the fields are large lake of
water for miles. Out here we won't
have to wait till the fields dry up to
plant crop as they say they will.
The picnic dinner and school err
tertainment was we'll attended and
everyone had good dinner and a
pleasant time. Mrs. Reede, from
the Cimarron, presented the schol-
.ars of Pleasant Valley with a fine
cake with the name of the school
printed on 1t in candy letters. The
cake was appreciated by both pu-
pills and teacher.

Notice to School Boards.

In 1909, when the State Text
book Comm adopted text
books, they also adopted the CAR
nett Reading Chart" Any
school district refusing to use
the adopted texts, or to follow
the prescribed Course of Study
adopted by the state, is liable un-
der the law. haye not insisted
on the use of the "Arnett" chart
as vigorously as should have
done, because the districts are
so poor. But now, 1 have re-
ceived threatening letter from
the publishers, H. E. Pendry
Co., Topeka, Kansas, in which
they announce that they have
started mandamus proceedings
to compel districts to buy the
chart, according to the law for

tured one chart for each district

legally force the districts to buy.

mandamus proceedings until l
can get responses from School

Act at once-call meeting of

If you cannot pay cash, they will
take District Warrant made
