K%ingsburg will utilize a vacant

this year. The board ia looking
for a teacher of experience for

qualify for this position?
We notice a tendency on the
part of school officers to supply
themselves with new record books.
This is a good idea, since in many
cases, the older districts have been
using record books that are not Of
the latest approved forms. Most
supply houses in South Dakota
furnish these records for $500 per
book.
Napoleon was a great reader
from his earliest youth. II is
said that even on his military
campaigns he always had a book
at hand to occupy his spare mo-
ments. And his never took more
than six hours for sleep after reach

campaign, his travelling library
consisted of over 800 volumes. The
margins of the books of his choic-
est authors we're written full Of his
own thoughts.
The Bon Homme county insti-

Dawes, of Fulton, is to be u con-
ductor this year. He represents
the practical side of our growing
educational tendencies, and we are
expecting much good to come from
his weeks stay with us. A good
attendance is looked for even
though many of our teachers have
fulfilled the requirements Of the
law by. attending various summer
schools in this and other states.t
This Office acknowledges receipt
OF a considerable supply of cata.
logs and bulletins from the state

that every teacher, high school and

We also wish that some Of the
