LONG LIST OF BOYS
AND GIRLS WHO HELPED
Earnest Effont to Train Hands And

| ScnOOIS turned INTO Il mere reservoir
of facts, figures and dates. The eter-
nal question of "Why?" is answered
better now than ever i'll the schools.
What shall my son and daughter do
| in life and is he and she fitted for
anything really worth while by the
training in the schools beyond dis
cipline and thin sparkling Of knowl-
edge.
Many of these questions were an
swered at the Rusk county fair. The
exhibits gave concrete examples Of
what the child is doing in lines of
| training the hand, the eye and the
head, and in the useful arts.
Next year more parents will no
| doubt get imbued with the spirit of
doing the best and aid the teachers by
secondng their efforts for better work
and more exhibits.
The prizes awarded in the school
exhibits follow. The News-Budget only
regrets that it cannot print all the
names of the exhibitors.
