MRS. CHARLOTTE ACKER FOR
COUNTY SUPT. OF SCHOOLS

One Of the most important offices in
the county to parents and the people
in general, is the office of county su-
perintendent of schools. Mrs. Char
lotte Acker has demonstrated her
splendid ability in that difficult posi-
tion for the past two years and her
many friends have insisted on her be-
ing a candidate for the nomination on
the democratic ticket feeling assured
that the voters of the county have
been well pleased with her work and
desire that she hold it for another
two years.
The work of this office has been
greatly increased during the past few
years, requiring additional labor as
well as knowledge of new school laws
to keep pace with educational needs.
Mrs. Acker has spent the greater
part of her life in school work and
is an enthusiastic advocate of all pro-
gressive educational matters. She be-
lieves nothing too good that will as
sist in giving the children of our
country the best advantages possible.
Her administration has been an eco
nomical one. She has Systematically
visited all the schools Of the county,
which include those at Fredonia
north Of the Grand Canyon, necessi-
tating many hardships. Mrs. Acker is
popular with the great majority of
the teachers as well as the parents of
the county and has given them un-
sparingly of her best efforts to main
tain the high standard our schools
have enjoyed. She is a pleasant, ca
pable woman, a fine executive and
has most successfully harmonized the
school interests in the county and her
greatest desire is to carry on the good
work to the best interest of her
constituents, should the electors favor
her reelection this year. At present
Mrs. Acker is the only avowed candi-
date on either ticket for the office of
county superintendent.

WEEKS BEST GOOD TURN

I A muscle-maker of a Good Turn
was recently written on the records Of
Troop 3, Spanish Fork, Utah.
When the boys of this troop dis
covered that thirty-five widows lived
in their town, they decided thirty-five
homes needed help in housekeeping.
So the chivalrous ones set to work and
during an investigation of possible
material found number of trees that
had been cut down near the town
and left to dry. The boys immediate
ly hied them to the owner of the trees
and laid the proposition before him.
go ahead" said the generous one.
go ahead and cut them up. They're
your for such a purpose.
This was where good firm muscle
proved handy. Twenty-three troop
members gathered up saws and axes
and promptly fell to chopping. AS
result, thirty-five widows soon had
a greater supply of fine Hndling wood
and logs than they had seen for many
long day. But this is not the end
of the story. When news of the
Scouts work reached the townspeople,
prominent merchant called the boys
to his store and announced that If
they would deliver it, he would give
each widow a sack of flour. Thus
did one good turn inspire another.
