TOT patlence on the part or the teacn- | CT and cooperation on the part of the | parents. 1t cannot be accomplished | in day or in year. Once habits of inaccuracy are formed it is the work of years-sometimes of lifetime-to root them out. Oftentimes they can never be rooted out. But our patrons | may rest assured of this, that we are working at the job with might and | main.
 The school sympathize deeply with Mrs. Burns in the great affliction that | has come to her and hers. School was dismissed Tuesday afternoon and all the teachers and many of the pupils attended the funeral or burial. Dur ing Mrs. Burns temporary absence from her room, her work is being car ried on by Miss Cora McAnally of Tal- ihina, Okla, who is spending few days with her parents in the city. We are greatly obliged to her for her time ly assistance.
 The following pupils are on the hon. or roll for November: Louise Gree son, Alice Russell, Gladys Crow, Bes- sic Simmons, George, Gray Taylor, Mary Allinder, Julian Camp, Marjorie Hogan, Frances Simpson, Elizabeth Dobson, Inez Gray, Laverne Reed, Bernard Glenn, Justin Williams, Err nest Simpson, Julia Randell, Clara May Markham, Lois Crow, Prone Wofford Maurine Bishop, Wilma Howell, Mildred King, Bernice Major, Grady Settler, Edwin Anderson, Gail Robins, Charley Muse, Mamie Fiddler, Floy Clements, Mittie Mcdonald, Lois Van Dusen, Forney Thompson, Vida Adams, Irene Thompson, Leola F'id- der, Richard Steele, John Harton, Earl Melton, Fay Blair. To be on the honor roll the pupil must average F. on his book, must have no grade below G, must make E in department and must not be tardy during the month.
 In the efficiency test made iii grades six, seven, eight and ten, Wilma
 Wright leads with the highest grade. Fay Blair, Miles Crow, Leola Fiddler and Mary Finton Higgins were close
 seconds. One of the tests given IS a list of 100 exercises in addition of numbers whose sum is 20 or less. The idea is to train children to add rapidly and accurately. In the past month room three has lowered it's speed rec ord from IT 1-2 to 10 1-2 minutes, and has raised it's accuracy record from Isl per cent to S5 per cent. We hope by the end of the year to be able to report this room up to the standard III it's number work. Room four is also making substantial gains in this direc- direction.
 Room five is making an industrial map that is worth seeing. Products of each section are glued to the areas where they are found, thus making a vivid picture of the country with re- spect to it's productions. Room six has also begun a map of this kind.
 New books are still coming to the library. Almost all the books needed by the high school for parallel read ing are now in the shelves ready for use.
 Doyle Scott went to Little Rock last week and took an examination for the ch hanffeur license. He reports rigid test
 The boys basketball team is at work in dead earnest. If it equals the rec l ord made this season by the girls team, we shall begin to imagine we are or the map, athletically speaking. Our girls are covering themselves and the rest of us with glory. Their latest victory was over the renowned Morrill, ton team.
 The play, "A Spoiled Darling" pre- sented by the class in expression, was thoroughly enjoyed by all who saw 1t. Everybody starred from Stanley, the big-voiced, bullying head of the fam fly, to Flora, the pugnacious Irish maid, whose squeaky brogue and graceless gestures strongly suggested militant suffragette. The audience was a trife disappointing as to size, the proceeds being only $35.2O. But we thank those who came for their patronage and hope for better sup port next time.
