costs 5 cents per loaf and Miss Skart-
vedt keeps house so she buys the
bread from the children at 10 cents
per loaf. The boys of her school
are now preparing a hotbed. One
nigh fear that bookwork would suf-

named are nevertheless the center of
the literary and social activities of
their communities.
So through the earnest, c~onsecreted
skilled labor of her teachers, in
school and without it's walls, the pro-
cess of making citizens from her boys
and girls goes daily on and because
of their noble ideals the standard is
n which ever rises higher.
