The SeImer School.

This week being the first of the
sixth month, | shall give a brief re-
port Of our work.
Each department. moves on with
growing interest, and increased en-
thusiasm. The attendance is good
not one dozen pupils in all Selmer
but are with US each day. Many out
of-town pupils swell our jolly band
each week.
The false prophets might do we'll
to secure employment elsewhere, for
the Selmer school is living, moving
reality. Our boys are manly, our
girls the very best, and our smaller
pupils the sweetest and dearest any
where.
Why should these boys and girls be
other than good and noble when they
come from homes whose parents are
pure, noble, enthusiastic and true as
steel?
With no pretense of flattery, | say
with some degree of pride that indeed
the patrons Of the Selmer school are
true and loyal to the very core. They
have the welfare of their children at
heart and are daily helping us to help
them.
Less than one year ago, many of
the coming and present realities were
but dreams. But thanks to this day
of living, moving, pulsating. progress
sive activity, new buildings have gone
up, concrete walks have been built;
the college has been overhauled; the
people are almost a unit Gust enough
kickers to make ir Interestingly; the
town much improved in many ways,
and all good live citizens are enthusi-
astic over the determined road moves
that are on.
The Selmer of tomorrow bids fair
to be second to none. With our un-
limited possibilities and active citi-
zens We can but succeed.
To the students Of the rural
schools let me say, come to Selmer to
school. We can help you and will if
you will but come. You may be ad-
vised by others not to come-but let
me ask you to investigate our class
work. We court inspection. The
next few months here would mean
much to you,
Not less than twenty-five of the
teachers who are working in the
schools of McNairy county this win
ter are former pupils of mine. Won't
you join us and let us help you to
like position? Many of them did not
have the start that you have now
for they have been helping you.
Come, let US help you more.
Remember. the Selmer school moves
on and we welcome all who come.
Yours for greater work,
]. I. Robson.

earlier than the California crop.
When the blizzard came that cut the
California orange crop so short,
nearly all Of the Arizona crop haG
been gathered.
| do not want you to think that
am booster for Arizona. | do not
want you to think that am trying
to use my influence to cause you to
picture all Of the state of Arizona as
land of flowers and the home of thor
oughbreds. It is far from it. Some
Of it is the most barren country
ever saw. In speaking of the noun
famous part, which drapes nearly all
Of the northern part of the state,
some Gf our hills in McNairy would
be river bottoms by the side of them.
1t seems to me there are good op-
portunities here for people who have
a desire not to let the grass grow
under their feet. The first trip
through a desert reveals much to
a man on an arid project it can be
seen that the dry desert dust has
been converted into a moist soil with
green fields of alfalfa and fat cattle;
and modern homes with all kinds of
beautiful flowers and tropical fruits.
Best wishes to the readers of the
Independent for happy New Year.
