These young ladies are among the
progressive teachers Of our county
and keep fully abreast with the times,
but all Of these go to Shelby county
to teach. 1t seems to us that Upton
county children need just as progress
i've teachers as those of any other
county, and we trust our county will
soon come to the front with her edu-
cstional advantages, giving longer
terms and paying better salaries, Their
by holding some Of our best teachers
from going to other counties and
States.
