The French School
From this school we went to the
French. Mr.. j. j. Johnsrud is the
teacher. Mr.. Johnsrud's work in
phonics and word drill was excellent.
He followed this with a very good
geography lesson. There were nine
girls and six boys attending this
school. Mr.. Johnsrud plans to make
this school more attractive in many
ways. His plans include putting up
the swing which has been out there
since last spring, banking the school
house, fixing the wire fence, mount
ing the desks and painting the black
board. He is also planning to heat
the lunches brought by the cchildren.
From the French school we went
to the P~ershing. This school is clos
ed for the time being. We hope to
reopen it in the mean future.
Treeby School
On Friday we visited the Treeby
schol. Thirteen children are enroll
ed. Nine were present, eight girls
and one boy. This school is in excell-
ent hands. Each pupil was introduce
ed to US. The pupils showed training
as each one accepted the Introduction
in a gracious manner. Many of the
pupils are seventh or eighth graders
and are planning their high school
work. We hope to see them enter
high school next year, and if anyone
can put them there, Mr.. DeVaney an.
The earnest spirit of the school inn
pressed US. 1t is a pleasure to visit
schools.
Woods
From there we drove to the Woods
This is one which was built
last summer. Miss Alice Stai is
completing a short term there. She
will take post graduate work in our
Normal Training Department after
she finishes out there. Much remains
to be done about the building. The
new desks which went out early in
the year are not up yet. The black
board which was sen out last sum-
ner is not all in place. The outside
buildings 7 still in the lumber pile.
We believe that the community will
get busy and help remedy these con-
Six boys and two girlswere
present.
Miss stat has not had time to fully
inc up the work but the general air
about the school and the attitude of
he children make us think that she
will have things going by the time we
make the next visit.
Boyd School
From here we drove to the Boyd
School was being dismissed
when we arrived, but the teacher cal
ed them back so that we might see
some of the work. A few things need
o be done about the building. 1t
vas hard for us to judge the work as
saw so little of it so VIZ shall make
another visit before commenting fur
Nine children are enrolled in
his school. Seven are girls and two
ire boys. This is also a new school
md was much needed. The children
n this section have had little oppor-
unity to go to school in the past.
l have made out programs for all
ural teachers. Patrons in most com
.unities are cooperating as never
superintendent and school
,efore. The community, teacher,
must all work together in re-
ard to each school. If this is done
he schools will be a success. Pat
ons should visit the schools. Don't
7ait until the end of the year to dis
uss your school. Do it early in the
ear. If the school is good commend
t. If it isn't, then report it so we
nay work together to remedy the de-
ects. I am writing this SO that you
nay know about your school and the
Their schools.
