]. w. Lindley's gumbo is proving a
success in hardening the sandy roads.
Was getting his "gumbo" from a

w, however, the rains came and the
floods descended before he completed
the job, filling the slash with water
and stopping further proceedings till
next summer or fall perhaps. The
work done, though, shows that it will
be practical to improve roads in

tivation all of said "wet place" except

If you continually complain of pains in the stomach, your liver or your kidneys are out of order. Neg feet may lead to dropsy, kidney trouble, diabetes or Bright's disease.

School Announcement.

The public school will close this month of private school. Nine months are required to complete the course of study prescribed by both the school board and state board. Pupils not attending the private school cannot be promoted next September from the simple fact that they have not com pleted the work prescribed. Unless they complete the work of each grade, and take the final examination on it, promotion is out of the question.
 Last year many stopped with the public school, and come up for examination at the opening of school in the fall. About per cent of them stood the examination fairly well and were promoted. The other 95 per cent failed This result may always be expected to follow such a course of action. The examination must and will cover the entire work of the grade, and it is utterly unreasonable to expect a pupil to stand a satisfactory examination on work that he has not been over
 Again, some parents think they can have their children study at home and make up the work. This will not be done by one out of fifty.
 In view of these facts, l hope that all the children now in school will be continued for another month
 As many of the present teachers will be continued as the patronage will justify. H. P. BURNEY.
