severe that the mare had to be
killed. A freight train was stand.

This is the year for taking the
school census which is now taken
only every other year. This is
not fair to al schools as has been
demonstrated in the Clay City
school. Two years ago when the
census was taken there was but
few scholars. Last year, owing
to an Influx Of population, there
were fifty per cent more children
to be schooled in the town than
was paid for by the state. The
census should be taken each year
and then ct the beginning of the
school term when it can be dem.
onstrated how many children
there really are to attend each
school.
