At a meeting of our school board
Friday morning it was decided to
postpone the opening of the local
schools to October l instead of Sep
tember g. as was decided upon at a
former time. The reason for the de-
lay is to give the farmers and orchard
men a chance to get their work done
without interfering with the school
work. Most of this kind of labor is
done by school boys and girls, and
If the directors hadn't acted thus
wisely it would have seriously inter-
fered with the school work. There
will be only an eight months term.
