The public schools of Snyder will
begin Monday September the Sth.
Annual announcement will be plac-
n ed tn the hands OF the patrons soon.
Nd Tie schools should be able to serve
the people better this year than IN
the past. Patrons should endeayor to
start their children In school the very
first day IN order that they may get
started right Il has been said that
good start is half the battle This
Is certainly true as applied to school
affairs Yet there are those people
who seem TO think II makes no diff
ference whether they begin with the
beginning or at some time later.
There are possibly those who can not
eater at the first. These should enter
at lhe.very earliest possible moment
day ma. meG1 much and often
does.
The time for transfers Is nearly
over and ali persons who live In the
adjoining districts who intend to

be made TO the County Judge. Under
ruling Of the board of trustees Of

Will be entitled to four months free
tuition the time TO begin when the

adjoining districts. Pupils who trans
fer 20 this district from other dis
tricts than those mentioned will
make special heterogeneous for tut
ton under the Rural High School
Law. Such pupils should see me at
