We extend a cordial greeting to
all our teachers, and wish for each
a most successful and pleasant years
work.
Let all rseolve, and strive earnest
ly to carry that resolution to a vi.
tai reality, that the coming year shall
be, if possible, the best in every re-
spect that Rusk county has thus fa1
enjoyed.
Earnestness and perseverance on
the part off teacher rarely fails tC
meet with an encouraging response
from pupils. Let us make the man
ual of the course of study the daily
source of help and guidance it is
intended to be by careful study,
in high, graded and rural schools
alike. No teacher, however well in.
formed in a general way, should, nor
can she afford to neglect this part
of his or her duty to her pupils.
We urge each teacher to subscribe
for the best educational journal to
be had; to add to the library at
least two standard professional books
It will be a valuable investment, and
should contribute not a little to the
teachers chances for success and
advancement.
The Training School opens on the
4th inst. Indications are that there
will be large enrolment. Princi-
pol B. M. Dresden may be inter
viewed, or if more convenient, write
him as to the matters relating to
entrance, boarding and rooms. We
have few calls from girls wishing
to work in part, or wholly for ac-
commodations. Consult Mr.. Dresden
If any boys or young men wish to
join the Agriculture and Business
course this fall they should advise
us promptly. Tuition free.
Teachers not having a copy of the
last premium list for the county fair
should address the Secretary, V. V.
Miller, Ladysmith. Enclose &c for
postage. 1t is hoped that many
teachers will prepare and forward
to the superintendent some articles
for the department. It would be
better to bring the exhibits to the
grounds the first day of the fair,
September 26. See that everything
is labeled, and name on back of ex-
hibit. Articles sent by mail or other
wise should be fully prepaid.
Teachers will find in back part of
the register a sheet on which to re-
port to the superintendent the classi-
fication, and the recitation program,
at the close of the second week.
This is expected of each teacher in

Coming home from trip to Flam-

a Timken bearing in one of the
front wheels refused to bear with him
any longer and the first thing Elmer
knew he was minus a front wheel.
Mr.. Hill succeeded in stopping the
car about the time the wheel came
off and except for the broken bear
ing no damage was done, but had
he been going fast serious accl-
dent might have resulted. AS it was,
it took until two O'Clock in the

put it in, and get home. Elmer says
a man running for office has to ex-
pect most anything, but hopes he
will have all his bad luck before the
primary day.
