The main event being over and lot
more shooters coming in, Manager
McDonagh started some more events,
one of which fve-man team event,
gave the Newbufg team a fine chance
to fairly smother La Plata and Bel
Alton, even scratch team from Wal.
dori coming in for second place, with
La Plata, third and Bel Alton fourth.
BY the time this event closed, the
wind began to blow, the targets took
on bewildering curves, in shoots and
down shoots, and probably the least

The management advertises another
meeting November 18th, beginning at

twenty-five targets, an Individual con-
test epen to all. Wind, and the time,
weather permitting, other events will
be added.

dead in an opn we'll at his home early
Wednesday morning last, with his
skull fractured. After examination of
the body by Dir. I. s. Owen, the coro-
ner's jury, empaneled by Justice II. G..
Robertson, rendered a verdict to the
effect that the deceased came to his
death from blow on the head, inflicted
in manner unknown 10 the jury. A
possible version of the matter IS that
the unfortunate man when attempting
to draw bucket OF water, was seized
with fit-of vertigo and fell headlong
into the well. crushing his skull against
the brick curb.

American Education Week.

The week OF Nov. 1928 has been pro.
claimed American Educational Week
| by President Coolidge. The purpose
IS TO have the American public become
better acquainted with the public
schools, 10 order that the mutual in
terest of patrons aud teacher may ac-
lively function in better training for
the childen.
The slogan for the week is srVisit
your Schools The County Board
OF Education extends invitation to
and earnestly requests the public 60
VISIT the schools of the county, observe
the work being done, notice the equip
ment, or lack OF same, and endeavor
to obtain sympathetic understanding
OF the teachers AIMS and methods.
The County Board of Education will
be glad to receive constructive criti-
cisms and suggestions for the better
ment OF the schools based upon obser-
Vations during your visit.
All friends and patrons of the public
schools are urged to make special ef-
fort during this week to secure better
attendance in all schools. Ii is very
evident that many patrons fail to ap-
preciate-the Importance of wing their
children attend school regularly.
The attendance problem in Charles
county is difficult one. We ranked
next TO the last of the twenty-three
counties of Maryland in attendance
last year. When we consider that the
amount of money received from the
State for the support of our schools
depends so largely upon school attend
aacei il does seem that every effort TO
improve this condition should be made.
Speaking before the N. E. A. in
Washington, July 4, 1924, President
Coolidge had this to say
a new Importance is attaching to
the cause OF education. A new realiza-
ton OF Its urgent necessity is taking
hold OF the nation. A new comprenen-
sion that the problem is only begin
ming to be solved, is upon the people.
A new determination to meet the re-
qnirements of the situation is every
where apparent.
The economic and moral waste OIL
ignorance will little longer be toler-
ated. This awakening is one of the
most significant developments of the
times
