Principal H. e. Marshall, of Bruce,
whatever assistance we can to make
the meeting a splendid success, as is
usually done at Bruce.
4 box social was given by Miss Merle
Rasmussen in No. 6 Thornapple on the
evening of Feb. 9th for raising funds
for the Red Cross cause. Nearly
$1,000 was netted, which has been add
ed to the county training school chap
ter, for the present.
District No 5, town of Atlanta has
recently appropriated $1,000 more for
equipping the school library. This is
good news, and in keeping with the
general sentiment throughout a large
part of the county for improving libra
ry facilities.
Reading circle work among pupils
and teachers is now i'll full swing and
much valuable reading is being done.
Several teachers have reported that
some of their pupils have already fin
ished the required reading for the
present year.
Certificates for circle reading will be
issued near the close of the school year.
Teachers may report to this office as
soon as the reading is finished, giving
name of pupil, grade, and the names
of the books read. BE careful to give
names and addresses of pupils COR
rectly. The cost of Circle Certificates
will not exceed cents each. This may
be paid by individual pupils or by
money raised by the teacher through
socials or entertainments. All remit
tances are to be made to the county
superintendent.
Many teachers are also taking up
reading circle work, two having sent
in their reports in essay form Of about
1000 words.
The drive for the sale of Thrift and
War Saving Stamps resulted in very
gratifying issuing of those stamps. A
great number of pupils have made sub
stantial purchases. and more is yet to
follow.
An interesting and enthusiastic
Stamp and Patriotic meeting was given
by Misses Ruby Kepner and Agnes
Void, of the Apollonia graded schools
recently A large audience greeted the
effort, and the program presented by
the children was good, reflecting the
loyal spirit of the patrons, pupils and
teachers of the district. Eugene Hay
den, district clerk, presided, and short
addresses were made by postmaster
Heayerin and the county superintend-
ent.
A recent visit Of inspection of the
two schools in Wilson confirms pre-
vious impressions that both schools
are doing well this year. Ray Smith
is in charge of the school in No. 1, and
Miss Mabel Arnett in District No. Il.
