would be good politics for Mis-

Vincent Heisserer of Benton,

great attention all over Missou-

SCHOOL NOTES.

School will open on Tuesday, the
seventh of September.
There will be no semi-annual pro-
motions this year, and no classes be-
ginning in the middle of the year.
Children who will be six years of
age before the first day of next Jan
uary may enroll when school opens
in September. Those who will not
be six until January 1 or later may
not enter until the fall of 1921. Pu-
pills who expect to enter the first
grade for the first time must enroll
at the beginning of school.
According to reports from various
quarters the shortage of teachers is
more acute just now than it has ever
been. The school board service d.
vision of the Bureau of Education, at
the close of the fiscal year June 30,
1870, reported three thousand re-
quests from boards of education for
teachers as unanswered. The Board
OF Education and superintendent hope
to be able to have all positions filled
when work begins. One vacancy ex-
lists in the local schools at the pres
ent time. A special teacher of music
for grades and high school has been
employed.
The Board of Directors of the
Leavenworth schools have undertake
en- to do all of the things necessary
to put the high school and grade
buildings in the very best shape for
the opening of school, and also to
make the new auditor
lum ready in every particular. Old
cesspools have been examined and =.
new one is being made. Two outside
drinking fountains will be installed
Lockers and chairs for the new build
ing are enroute now. Furniture and
gymnasium equipment have been or
defed and will be here as soon as tbov
can be supplied. Many minor mat
tiers are also being attended To- and
all IN all it looks as though the Leav-
ehworth schools should enjoy an en-
lnently successful wear.
