AT the special school meeting last
Friday afternoon a levy of % mills was
voted and the board of directors auth
orized to employ another teacher and
femodei the house on the corner, which
IS now occupied by Mr.. and Mrs. G. G.
Masiker. to be used as a primary room
II IN the judgment of the board such
action proved necessary for another
year. An arrangement of this kind
would relieve the present congested
condition and each teacher would then
ne required to teach sbut two grades.
Wheie as Is now the case in two rooms
there are three grades. We have a
splendid corps of teachers and it be-
nooves US to improve every opportunity
Tor helping them in their work. We
would especially commend the efforts
Oh our principal to so develop the char
acters OF the boys and girls directly
under his supervision that they may
become manly men and womanly wom-
en-. We of mature years may count it
our privilege as well as our duty to
stand back of him, solid body to do
our part to encourage and support him
10 ms efforts. If those for whom he is
striving have not learned to look into
tne future and see the advantages de-
HVed from practicing obedience, self
control, respect for the rights of others
they will some day look back and re-
member with gratitude their instruc-
tors efforts for their advancement.
Let US not withhold our words of ap-
probation for those teachers who are
giving freely of their lives in the i'm
portant work they have chosen.
