County School Supt. J. c. Marriott
visited the schools of Liberty town

day he called and observed the work
done by the teachers and scholars in
six schools.
Since the opening of the schools
this fall, Supt.' Marriott has visited
the schools in seven of the 22 town
ships of the county. He finds the
work starting in an eminently salts
factory and pleasing manner in all the
schools. The reports show good at
tendance, practically all reporting in
creased enrollments. While the at.
tendance in the rural schools has in
creased measurably, the grade schools
and high schools in the villages re-
port even larger increases. This is
notably true at Gambler, Centerburg
and Fredericktown. The total en-
rollment will, it is believed, be found
to be greater than ever before

What will be the ultimate outcome
