DISTRICT SCHOOL
MEET CALLED OFF
COMMITTEE DECIDES THAT uN.
DER EXISTING CONDITIONS
SHOULD NOT BE HELD.

The Third district high school as
sociation will not hold the annual
meet this year. This decision was
reached by the executive committee
after having received a number of
requests from schools throughout the
district
This was deemed wise on account
Of the fact that the schools have lost
SO much time on account of the in
fluenza epidemic. All the available
time is needed for regular school
work.
The meet was to have been held in
Fitzgerald in April. No doubt it will
be held there in April 1920.
The executive committee, which was
unanimous gin the decision, is as fol-
lows: ]. c. Dukes, president, Supt,

ident; supt Jno. w Barnhill, Fitz-
