From Supt. E. L. Turner we CLEAN
the following information of interest
concerning the school attendance
record for September, viz: White
Pupils enrolled for Greene County
Schools First (September) month
2,289; average 2,023. That's pretty
good record of average. There were
no epidemics IN the county except
The few cases OF mild diptherIa at
Leakesvile school. With the Com
rulsory educational law becoming
ffective tor the present month OF
October and the weather having
been warm and but little rains, the
Z average will likely show even clos
er mark towards the total enroll
nent figure.
