SHOWING THE GROWTH
 OF OUR PUBLIC SCHOOL

The present Emerson school build- ing was built in 1895. At that time it contained six classrooms, and an as- sembly room. This served the needs of the community for many years, but in 1912-13 it was necessary to build the present addition in which are found four class rooms, manual train ing and domestic science rooms, lum- Der and supply rooms, furnace room, and two toilet rooms.
 Besides the present building with its addition, the building which was form erly the old Catholic church has been rented for the past several years and used for school purposes. At present it furnishes accommodations for the children from the first to the third grades who live ip that part oftown which is adjacent to the Flagstaff Lumber Go. mill. It is called the "Brannen school" and has four rooms, three of which are now used as class rooms.
 The present corps of public school teachers includes the following: Kindergarten--Mrs. Anne L. Noble.
 First grade--Miss Mabel Milligan, Miss Freda Linton, Miss Jennie Whip pie, Miss Emma Vandevort.
 Second grade Mrs. Elizabeth
 Second and third-Miss Kathleen Anderson.
 Third grade-Miss Flora Jensen.
 Fourth grade--Mrs. Leslie Eddy.
 Fifth grade-Miss Lura Kinsey.
 Sixth grade-Miss Mary J. Leedom.
 Junior high--Mrs. B. s. Kennedy, principal; Miss Annie c. Linney, his- tory and geography; Miss Rosemary Reinhold, Spanish and mathematics.
 Manual training--R. V. Lulow.
 Domestic science--Miss Lydia M. Akin.
 Music and art-Mrs. R. V. Lulow.
 Superintendent-O H. Richardson.
 Last year the state board of educa- tion made a ruling to the effect that the normal schools of the state should discontinue the ninth and tenth grades after September, 1920. This necessi- tated some changes in the Emerson building and the seventh, eighth and ninth grades were formed into jun for high school department, which has continued during the present year. The coming year demands accommodations for the tenth grade and, accordingly, a bond election has been called for April 24th, the particulars of which are to be found published in the Fri day editions of both city papers and also posted at the Emerson school, the city hall, the post office and court house.
 Beginning with the coming year we expect to offer commercial course in addition to the regular academic course already offered. This com mercial course should appeal to many of the young people of the commun- ity who desire to prepare themselves to become stenographers or private secretaries.
 Ten years ago our schools had an average attendance of 135 pupils and a corps of nine teachers. Today, with a corps of eighteen teachers, we have an enrolment of 522 and an average attendance of 295 to 320. The census shows school population of 775. 9th Ter grade children are enrolled in the Normal training school and in the parochial school. By the efficient work of our truant officer, J. D. Jackson, and the cooperation of the parents, the attendance of the past year has kaav x,o,r, <.1aI cn,,,n ,ff fka rrroIac nn

The members of the house who

ly for the north but wetly for the
south may be unduly influenced by
the history of prohibition in certain
states. 1t was commonly said In many

Dixie that their prohibition wash

merchants and planters found prom
bition useful falling under the flend-
ish thrail of cheap gin, liquid when
curtailed production. In many cases IL
did not prevent the literate white
man from importing by mail from
neighbor states all the whiskey ana
beer he wanted for his own use.
The south was spoken of as being
under prohibition, but sometimes IL
was class prohibition. OF course the
Volstead law and preceding measures
cut off the mail order trade by put

agents will be needed to pursue them.
THE ideal of many southern politi-
cans would be population equally

salary rolls, the other half under sus-

first half. And of course 1t wouid
be the northern fellows that would

John ID. JR. SCORED.

The city of automobiles jumped on
John d. Rockefeller, Jr., with Dotn
feet when he came to talk on the
inter-church world movement.
"Why Is gasoline so high?' was the
first question of the newspaper men,
who met him in the lobby of his no.
tel.
Detroit has good reasons for ask
ing that question:" he replied. But
I can't give you any better answer
than anybody else. My father hasn't
had anything to do with running the
Standard Oil company in over twenty
years, and have never had anything
to do with it. think, however, that
Standard Oil has kept the price from
going higher than it is.
Governed by Supply and Demand.
Every time my father or l give
money to any movement they say tnat
the price of oil goes up a cent. Ihat
is not so. The price is governed by
the laws of suppy and demand"
Rockefeller was asked whether he
and his father had not put large
sums into the dry movement.
i"I have heard the story that father
and l wanted this country to go dry
so that we could get more out OF our
workmen," he said. ''I've looked up
how much we have given between US
to the dry movement in the last
twenty-years. 1t is $4,000. We gave
it because we believe in prohioitlon'
not for business reasons.
: The inter-church movement Is

dictionary and radical elements as the
rockefeller party pursues its trip. In

that the movement took In the par

Mr. Rockefeller said today "for any

business, by the Golden Rule. Ine

question often enough. The Golden len
