Sylvan Shade school district
has voted local tax of 25c to
maintain a good school in that
district with longer term and q
high school department. There
were only two votes cast in OPP

is indicative of the splendid spirit
that exists in that community.
A. c. Bacon has been appointed
as trustee for the new term be-
ginning In March. We now have
three schools that will be operat-
ed under the consolidated school
law and have a special local tax
In addition to the zoe county tax.
1t is interesting to note the at
tendance record in these schools
and the number of pupils pro-
NOTED each year. These schools
are all located In Educational
Division No. of which c.. @.
Alexander is chairman. The
fourth school in this division is
Roper and although it has not
heightened the school term il
supplements the salary of the
teacher literally and is one OF
our best one-room schools, al
ways a teacher who is at least a
high school graduate.
Last week while attending the
conference of County Superin-
tendents at Frankfort it was our
pleasure to visit several four
room schools and also to be pres
