MADE AT Be. H. s.
County High School at Hard
dinsburg Has Had $500
Worth of Improvements.
PIT. A. Assists in Work.

1t is the intention of this article to
bring to the citizens of Breckenridge
county information as to just what
has been accomplished in the way of
improvements at the Breckenridge
County High School during the pre-
sent school term under Prof. Fred
Schultz.
First, a stage and scenery have
been added to the chapel hall. This
stage makes it possible for all forms
of school entertainments to be held
at the college building, thus making
the school building, the town and
communities social center.
The second form of improvement
has been the kalsomining of the walls
of the entire building. This has made
the class rooms and halls both at
tractive and restful to the eye.
Thirdly, blinds have been purchased
for the chapel and Office.
Fourth, the labatory has been cell
ed and equipped with a sink and
running water. This makes it possible
to do efficient labatory and class work
in the room.
Fifth, two Webster's International
Dictionaries and one dictionary stand
have been added to the high school
department These dictionaries were
greatly needed and are a valuable
contribution to the class room work.
The above improvements represent
a cost of about five hundred dollars
($500.00). All of this has been accom-
polished without pennies expense to
Hardinsburg or Breckenridge counties
school funds. 1t was made possible by
the diligent work of the Parent
Teacher Association and the work of
the high school pupils.
We are sure that the town and
county are justly proud of these inn
provements and will show their APP
probation by assisting in every pos
sible way the County High School.
The County High Schools over the
State are the dynamoes of force
which will put Kentucky in the front
rank of educational army. B. c. II. S.
has before her a bright future and
with the assistance of the counties
and public spirited citizens will see
within short time a mighty growth
and development 1t is your home
school trying to serve most efficiently
the sons and daughters of your home
county.
