GROW III AND
DEVELOPMENT OF
THE COUNTY SCHOOLS

Ten yers ago there were enrolled
in the elementary schools Of the
county 1887 pupils. The average
number Of days each pupil attended
school was 113. There were 1T
graduatee and "a teachers were EN-.
ployed.
In 1913 there were enrolled in
the elementary schools 4349. They
attended school an average Of 49,
days each. and ss1 completed the
eighth grade and 100 teachers were
employed. In addition in 1918 the
county was taking care Of $50 high
school stuents in a way that earned
complimentary recognition from the
State High School Inspector.
During the year the schools have
responded enthusiastically to the
needs Of the nation Ia the various
ways suggested for winnis the war.
a total Of ss4 900 worth Of thrift
stamps has been purchased. 1000 pu-
pills Joined the Junior Red Cross.
Hundreds of articles were made for
the Red Cross and hundreds Of
pounds Of clothes collected for the
Belgian Relief committee.
An exceptionally good record has
been made In food production by the
members of the Boys and Girls clubs
The following table shows the club
projects conducted. the number Of
members making complete reports
and the value of food produced in
each Of the club projects, The table
includes only the results OF the men,
bers who have made boni fide re.
ports and transmitted them to the
state leader. Besides the 500 mem
bers who made complete reports
many Of the other members enrolled
did considerable amount of work
and their products would have made
a material addition to the total.

girls enrolled. This means that prac-
tically all were carrying on more
than one project. They have raised
gardens. poultry, worked in the hay
beet and grain fields. and have not
hesitated to accept the tasks OF their
older brothers who were in the army.
Probably where girls have excelled
is in food conservation, and in the
use of wheat substitutes. They have
discovered new ways to preserve all
kinds Of perishable fruit. In fact
they can everything from the skin
to the core. In the baking project
152 members learned to make deli
cious war bread from all kinds Of
wheat substitutes. Girls did their
own and in many casei the family
sewing. One hundred and twety-
five girls planted and cared for war
gardens and 1919 were members Of
ehe poultry project. In fact the first
award for Black Minorca chickens at
the county afr was given to a club
member from smithfield. =
The girls gave excellent exhibits
at the county fair and at the county
and state fairs one of the canning
teams conducted successful demon.

Through the Smith Hughes act
the national government offers II.
nancial aid to high schools that pro-
vide practical courses fitted to the
actual needs Of the community. These
courses are closely supervised by
government experts. The two Coun.
ty High Schools have qualified in
every way to meet the requirements
OF the act. The Smith Hughes work
for boys will emphasize the needs
Of the Cache County farms; for the
girls II will emphasize successful
home making.
The growth Of the County High
Schools has been gratifying and in
view of the support the school pat.
rons accord them, coupled with en-.
couragement from the state and ma
tional government. 1t is no exaggera-
ton to predict that they stand on the
threshold Of period Of phenomenal
development.

THE KAISER LAUGHED AT.

The Kaiser never had thing to
make him so angry in his life. An
American moving picture company
took pictures of him in a series Of
funny poses and thereby placed him
in a class with Charley Chaplain
and Fatty Arbuckle. Think Of it!
The great and divine Kaiser, the
proud and egotistical monarch, crawl
ing around on his hands and knees
and thousands Of people jeering and
laughing at him. It was enough to
make the old geezer cuss.
" Well, Mr.. Glenn Kay once showed
a very special picture called, "The
Beast of Berlin" The same COM
pany, which produced that, is offer
ing a farce on that picture entitled,
,"The Geezer Of Berlin" If you

Kaiser's expense. 60; to the Opera

guaranteed sure cure for the blues
and all the ills that flesh is heir to-.
It makes you forget where you are,
whom you are, what you are, and
assures you an evening Of true hap

SECOND PRIMARY.

The second primary election will
be held on next Tuesday. At that
election the voters will cast their
ballots for a candidate for. the short
term in the United States Senate,
for a Railroad Commissioner, and
for a Commissioner of Agriculture.
In addition to this a candidate for
Comptroller General is to be nomi-
mated, Mr.. Sawyer having died few
days before the first primary, and
the Democratic Executive Commit
tee having ordered that the primary
for this office be held on next Tues
day.
County Chairman, VIM. P. Greene
advises that the tickets have been
shipped to him, and that they will in
all probability be received today,
and may be called for, as we'll as
those enrolment books which were
returned. The managers of election
may call for these books and tickets,
or any persons in the vicinity of a
polling place may call for the same.
1t is suggested that there are men
on the jury from the several COM
munities and any of these may call
for the boxes and tickets for the
polling precincts at which they vote,
if they will turn the same over to
the managers.

German plaintively asks why, when
he becomes naturalized in America,
he must prove his loyalty by learn
ing "English," the answer is that he
must do so not because it is eng
lish", but because it is American,
and we do not intend to return to
the Tower of Babel. The various
nationalities that have enriched your
country and mine will gain nothing
by trying to contradict historical
facts. They have their own gifts to
give; and neither in your country,
nor in mine, do we deny those gifts
but neither can we deny the plain
facts Of history in this particular
historical development. We are un.
tied by some hing stronger than the
bonds, even of blood. We are united
by the bond of a common language
a language enriched by the associ'
ations Of thousand years. The
great charters of freedom, from
Magma Charta to the Declaration Of
