Klamath Schools to
Have Sheep Clubs

Sheep-raising clubs are to be estab-
lished among the public schools Of
Klamath county, and will occupy a
prominent place among the industrial
club work during the coming year,
according to a statement made by
Superintendent Edna Wells. AL
though a great deal of efficient work
was done this last year by these
clubs, it is the intention of those at
the head Of the movement to profit
by the experience of the past and
to introduce measures which will get
better results in the future.
From now on the different clubs
will be started in sections of the
county to which they are adapted
especially. The stock-raising clubs
will be started in the country devoted
principally to this industry, and the
same is to be true of garden produc-
tion, etc. The final reports are to
be sent in earlier this year.
1t is the intention to have every
club member visited at some time by
either the state or college leaders,
who will inspect the work of the stu

Curry County Boy
Goes Over Top

The Roseburg News prints the fol-
lowing letter from H. A. Snow, I
Curry county boy, which is an !E'rr-
esting description of how our Eng
lish cousins treat the Sammies when
they arrive in that country from the
trenches in France. The brother
hood of the soldier is felt there the
same as in the United States, and the
tale of this Oregon boy may be ray
of cheer to the mothers of this coun-
try. who may realize that their boys
will be looked after as kindly and
considerably "over there as they
are on their own home shores:
