had the pleasure a few days ego of visiting the Denning High School. now conducted by Prof. $. J. Crossno. and not withstand iuA the cold weather and some sickness has an attendance of more than two hundred pupils. It is . pleasant sight and pleasant reelection to see 60 many little boys and girls. some near, others quite to manhood and woman hood, with smiling faces and sparkling eyes equipping them- selves for the duties of after life. Daeh and every pupil seems to know his place and duty. always at the one and ready to perform tAe other. It is surprising to see the good government in school. Everything moves with quiet pre- oision and the study and labor before them seems to be but an eosv task.
 We can only attribute this to the energy. industry and perse- veeanee of Prof. Crossno. Prof. lev and Miss Arbaugh. who are wiling ct all times to make any raDoonable sacrifice for the good o{ their pupils.
 Tue School Board at Denning ake indeed to be commended for erecting such . splendid new school building on so short not. ieA and employing Prof. Crossno e principal of their school. We peedict for them a most success. full tefm of school. May success ouVn their efforts.

 Her remains arrived in Ozark Friday afternoon and were re-
  moved to the Webb home where funeral services were held. Revs. w. J. Faust and J. K. Smith con- ducting the service. A large number of friends were present to pay last tribute of respect to a woman whose strong christian character had been a great power for upbuiding of christianity in Ozark.
