(Summerfield Chronicle)

tSummerneld CnrOnlcle)
Mrs. JOS. w. Davis, who was one of
the superintendent of the Domestic
Science Department." reports every
thing moved off nicely, and all articles
checked off Saturday noon.
She thinks that Miss Annie Davis of
Ocala, who was in charge of the do
nestle science department. deserves
much credit for her work, and could
not be eXcelled for her executive
ability. and is most certainly capable
of managing county fairs.
Mrs. Jos. w. Davis also deserves
much praise for the great interest she
took in the fair, especially so in her
efforts towards getting exhibits from
our people and it is not now too early
TO begin to think about the 1913 fair.
Summerfield can and should make a
great big showing next year. Our
people have the wherewith to make
that showing: poultry, ducks, swine
stock. farm products, fancy work and
what not.

we take pleasure IN presenting to our
readers in this issue concise account Of
the educational system of Owyhee County
as it exists today. We have been at con-
siderable pains to gather the data for this
article and we believe that while it is, on
account Of our limited space, necessarily
condensed, it is fairly accurate.
In correspondence with school officials
and teachers over the county, we received
a great deal of most interesting matter
that it would have been our delight to
publish had we room. From Oreana
King Hill, Hot Spring and other sections
came samples of the work rejecting
alike on both teacher and pupils.
Our object In making this effort at this
time is to renew and awaken interest in
school work by letting each community
see what her neighbors and the schools Of
the county in general are doing and to
discover the needs of the county schools
with the aim to future cooperation with
the authorities for their betterment. We
believe that Nugget, in common with
every newspaper in the state, is in a po-
sition to help to some extent in the great
educational cause-a cause which is very
near to the heart of the writer. As a
physician Investigates with view to re-
medal measures and calls that investiga-
ton a diagnosis, so we have tried to
diagnose the school situation in Owyhee
and trust that the result spread in the
present issue will, if nothing else, awaken
interest in the subject and re-enthuse the
enthusiasts.
Regarding the needs of the Owyhee
school system, perusal OF the reports
indicates a most excellent condition as a
whole, far better, we think, than we had
any right to expect, considering the
sparsely settled nature of the county. A
few comments along these lines may not
be superAuous.
In the rural communities the school
house must necessarily become the social
and Intellectual center. 1t seems that
the trustees largely overlook this point in
building the schools. Yet the fact that
this is so becomes potent factor in the
success of the institution. The social ac-
tivities of the community make for school
spirit and community cooperation with
the board and the teachers. Build your
schoolhouses large enough to make it the
meeting place also for all community
endeavors and the school will reap the
reward.
So far as county administration is con
cerned, the matter of probation officers
appears to be the greatest problem for the
Commissioners 10 work out. The subject
is big enough for separate treatment and
will receive our attention in later issue.
Summed up in a sew words, we believe
the things most worthy of encouragement
are:
Trustees Organization: Nearby groups
to work together
Parents-Realizatio of the value of an
education. Meetings Of mothers and CO.
