DIRECTORS TALK
OVER l2.10GTHS
SCHOOL SESSION

SCHOOL SESSION
Possibilities of continuation
school. its defects and advantages
were discussed at a meeting OF 20
school directors held at Judge Her
bert Bakers Office Saturday after
noon at call Of County superin-
tendent A. u. Copeland.
All OF the directors agreed that
some steps must be taken to make
the Weld county school year CORES
pond with the economic needs OF the
agricultural communities.
The continuous school with teach
ers employed on a IL months basis
was favorably discussed by many OF
the directors. Advantages were out
lined az follows:
The plan means q higher stand
ard of professionalism by making
the teacher a permanent member of
the community. Also the 12-month
salary would make 1t possible for
the teacher to make an adequate IN
come without seeking other wool:
during the 12-month school yoar
would make the teacher valuable
addition to the community.
The 12-month school would make
1t possible for the children to be alb
sent when they were actually needed
on the farm and would also cut out
vacations at times Of the year when
they are not needed,
Under the present system the
husky intelligent youngster who can
do other valuable work comes in after
school has started in the fall and IL
regarded as 4 nuisance by the teach
ers. AS director expressed 1t. 'he
gets the skim milk of education and
deserves the cream"
BY a continuous school system the
teacher can devote time to helping
the backward and retarded pupils
and can thus bring them up to the
public school standard of work.
1t seems to be the general opinion
of the directors that midwinter vaca-
lions should be abolished and that
some form of summer school must be
adopted. No definite action was
taken at this meeting.

Henry Sturzenegger suffered a SC. were injury at Kansas City some time ago, while enroute with his company from Camp Cody to the eastern coast
 The boys were: detrained in the above city and were going to plunge for bath, and when mounting sonie concrete steps leading into the plunge building, the officer gave the order to double quick. In responding to the order Henry fell and struck the con- crete which resulted in the bursting of his knee cap.
 The young man is now confined in the Post Hospital, Ward 8, Leaven- worth, Kansas, to which place he was immediately taken after the injury. this injury will likely cause him per this injury will likely cause hi ma per manent disability and his discharge from the army, but Henry and his friends are pulling for something diff ferent and it is hoped that his youth will conquer and that he will come forth from the hospital as good as new and be able to rejoin his company in the pursuit of the Boche.

Harry Williams received a letter from James Moore, thanking him for forwarding his Elks' membership card. He said: IF"
 Everything is going nicely here with me. Army life is no hardship on an old desert rat.' Get plenty to eat and always have good quarters to sleep in.
 "You get more news in the papers at honSe than I will be able to give you so will not attempt any news stunts. Only this-all the boys at this base are doing their bit and doing it well. The Germans started something when they started this last drive, that they could not finish. think the allies will finish it for them. The American boys are going strong and for everyone who pays the price several Huns will do likewise. Am awfully glad to get my card. There are lots of Bills over here and it is embarrassing to claim membership and not be able to show credentials"

 "The weather is most beautiful here. One would hardly believe it is sum- mer.
 q had a trip across the country the other day and enjoyed it very much. We saw some old towns and the roads and surrounding country are beautiful.

TRANSFERS BRYAN HIETY
 10 MACHINE GUN CO

We'll, l have been a soldier for nearly three weeks and it sure is one great life, believe me.
 We arrived at camp on the 7th of August and bunch of non-coms met us and lined us all up and marched us out about two miles and all the sol diers along the way would say, "Hep, hep" We finally arrived at the hos pital and the doctor looked us over to see if we had any contagious diseases and then we were made to take bath. It wasn't Saturday night SO I took cold. Ha, Ha. Then we were stripped for gym and started through the ropes. There were about 50 doctors. We had to go through out 30 rooms, and talk about examination, it sure was some task. And then the last well, you have an idea what is was, haven't you? Well,i have heard of snake bites and had them bite mb, but that shot in the arm. though he ran the needle up in my neck. Then an- other scratched me on the other arm. think they call it vaccination and oh, look out. 1 went over to the personal office to make out my insurance, and about an hour-that shot hit me and got so sick 1 was afraid I would die. Then the next morning my arm was swollen up so I was afraid I would die. Gee, it sure was a very unpleas- ant feeling, but in nine days I was feeling fine and they lined us up and shot us again. And the fellow ahead of me tainted and that did get my goat. But I got through all o. K. I was in the G company of the 9th Inf.- in fact, all six of the Mohave county boys were in it until last Friday. A big fellow came up and called "Hilty" and thought l was picked to be a kitchen police-that is, clean pans and peel spuds. But, no, was being trans ferred to the machine gun company. Oh, gee, that is where you get eight minutes to live in the front line trenches. But, believe me, you don't have to pack a big rifle. I did that for two weeks and I asked the officer when he gave me my gun where the wheels were and I very nearly got court martialed. But he smiled.
 One consolation with a machine gun, you sure can get bunch of those square-headed Dutch. They only shoot 600 shots minute. There are eight men to one gun and they are good for GA minutes. Gee, that makes fellow feel pretty good, doesn't it?
 suppose you miss me at the dances and baseball gantes. But it won't be
