HUNTING FOR BEAR

Judge W. S. Bullock landed here
Sunday on his way somewhere in the
direction OF Billy BowIeg's old hunt
ing grounds. He said he locked up
his office in Ocala and threw the key
away, and was out on the warpath for
a month.
He will start from Eustis in his
gasolene launch, sailing across Lake
Eustis and Lake Harris into the Ok
lawaha river, thence down the St.
Johns and on to Daytona. Here Mrs.
Bullock and his daughter, Miss Alice,
will join him, when he will continue
his journey to the Indian river, posi-
bly, touching at St Augustine. From
there he said he did not know where
he would go-not TO ask him any more
questions.
The Judge says he'll land at Ia
wares on the wind-up, and to be care
full what We say about him, or he'll
get even when court meets. The
Judge is an old bear hunter, you
know. He killed bar on these lakes
fore the war, so don't be alarmed if
he returns loaded to the gunnels with
bear meat.-Tavares Herald.

0UNNELLoN SCHOOL OPENS

Special Cor. Ocala Banner:
The Dunnellon High School opened
Monday morning( September 10th,
with full corps Of teachers present.
The weather being favorable, there
were quite a number Of patrons and
TWO OF the trustees present. The fac
ulty consists of J. H. Owens, Lake
City, Fla, principal; Mrs Elya Bias
sett, Holder, Fla, first assistant; Miss
Alma Reeves. Alachua, Fla, second
assistant; Miss Mabel Turner, Cater,
Fla, third assistant Miss Pansy Sou,
Ter. Sparr Fla. primary department.
The enrolment was 1872, which
shows quite an increase over the
opening day last year. After dero-
tional exercises. conducted by the
principal, we had short but appropri-
ate talks by Mr.. G ". Neville, one
OF the trustees, and several Of the
patrons, in which they expressed
their good wishes for the success Of
the school. 1t was indeed a pleasant
sight TO see so many pupils present
with their bright faces, which clearly
showed their anxiety to enter upon
their years work
The morning was spent in classify
ing the pupils and assigning lessons
and providing them with a list Of
books which they are to use during
he present term.
In the afternoon the principal had
a faculty meeting, at which the plans
for the years work were laid out and
arranged. After which the Ladies
School Improvement Society held Il
business meeting, which was largely
attended by the active members. The
following officers We're elected: Mrs.
W H Hoffman, president: Mrs. J. c.
Boyd, vice president; Mrs. l.. VI. Win
gate, secretary; Mrs. J. P Ashley,
assistant secretary; Mrs. R. H. San
ders, treasurer.
After the election of officers many
questions relating 20 the welfare of
the school were discussed, and the
views Of the teachers met the hearty
cooperation and support of all the
patrons present.
After the business of the meeting
was transacted it was turned into a
social for the purpose of meeting the
new teachers and extending to them
| hearty welcome.
Last but not least, after the many
courtesies had been exchanged we
we're all treated to delightful refresh
ments, consisting of punch, various
kinds OF cakes and other dainties. The
| principal, seeing so many delicious
dainties, said in a jocular manner
| that he was reminded of Irving's LIE
gend of Sleepy Hollow, and that he
was playing the part Of that gallant
hero and not being in any great hur-
ry, he would try to do justice to ev-
cry dainty
! Then, as the golden sun was sink
ing behind the western horizon, pull
ing nights sable curtain over the
day, We all departed to our respect
| i've homes, feeling assured that this
would be one OF the most successful
terms that the town OF Dunnellon has
! had in number OF years.

A Lesson On Consolidated Schools.

Why is it best to consolidate
the small one teacher schools in
toa large centralized school?
Because of the weakness of the one
teacher school and the strength and
advantages of t he consolidated
school.
What are the causes of weakness
of the one teacher school?
This question should be answered
from three standpoints:
1st, Too many classes for one teach
err; classes too small to stimulate in
terest and arouse competition; isola-
ton of teacher and lack of profess
ional companionship.
End. Taxing unit too small to pro-
vide adequate buildings and equip
ment, sufficient salary and length of
term, resulting in absolute depend
ence on the general school fund for
all purposes.
3rd. Social unit too small to slim
ulate growth and the spirit of coop
Grafton in social, economic and edu-
catlonal enterprises.
Why should we have strong spir-
it of cooperation?
Where we donot have it indlvidu-
alism is magnifed, leaving teacher
and pupil prey to the selfish whims
Of Indifferent patrons. resulting III
frequent changes, loss of interest
and decay; furnishes fertile soil for
the growth of such social diseases as
prejudice, l,essimism. hatred toward
the more fortunate and final aversion
to all modern progress.
What are the advantages of con-
solidation?
1st. A better trained and more
stable teaching force; better attend
ance and classification of pupils; di-
vision of labor and longer recitation
periods; the elimination of inexperi-
enced teachers by placing young
teachers under the super vision of
experienced teachers.
End. A larger taxing unit makes
possible better buildings and equip
ment
3rd. It furnishes center for lar
ger community interests and a slim
illus to cooperative enterprises OF all
kinds; weakens the force of the
chrepic kicker and makes possible
the enlargement of the social and E.
economic outlook OF the community
4th. It provides that equality of
educational opportunity for g
country boy and girl which is so
much desired and puts them in pos
session of real social ideals.
The above is in line with material
furnished by the State Department.
OF Education and IS gotten up, by
me, in the form Of a lesson SO that
everybody may understand it fully.
Very respectfully,

Fl. T. James was up from his com

with regards to the road working
situation. Henry tells US that the
price vince we have made the board
for publishing their proceedings is
reasonable. He can speak from ex-
perlence as he has served as superv-
sor while such proceedings were pub
lished part of the time. This goes
further to prove that the price argu-
ment is merely an excuse offered by
az unwilling Supervisor not to have
their actions monthly reported to
the people through the medium of
their county paper, the proper chan
mel for such.
