M. e. brotherhood Meets

A heavy rain in the evening, and
the electric lights practically QUO,
kept many from attending the
Brotherhood meeting Friday eve
ming at the Methodist Episcopal
church. Because of lack of electric
ity, the pipe organ was out of COM
mission, SO that the special musical
program which had been prepared
could not be carried out. Mr.. l.. v.
Busche led in congregational sing
ing. DIR. C. e. Northrup presided.
DR.. r. L. Foulke Of Cambridge who
was scheduled to appear could not
come, neither was District Supt.
Meyer present, and in their place
w. S. Domer and Atty Leasure of
GAINESVILLE were present.
Mr.. Domer is teacher of the fa-
nous Domer Bible class of Grace
Methodist Episcopal church, Zanes-
Vile. He made a splendid address
in which he took as his subject
"Cooperation With God" He stated
that God had left on the work
bench of the world many unfinished
tasks to be performed; that God
could not finish them without the
use of man, and man could not car
ry them on to completion without
Gods help. He spoke of cooperation
with God through prayer, cooperat-
ing through natural laws, coopera-
tion through faith. Farmers coop
crate with God he said in the rails
ing of crops. AS an illustration he
took an apple orchard or the grow
ing of apples. God, he said, does
about 95 percent of it. He furnishes
the earth, the sunlight, the mois-
ture, the chemicals in the soil, the
pollen, the favoring. etc.
Atty Leasure spoke but briefly,
telling of his acquaintance with the
late Frank Parsons of this place,
and Atty T. e. Mckinney, both OF
whom were his college class mates.
He also spoke in words of highest
praise of the service of Mr.. DomeT
as Bible school teacher, and be-
lieves that there are few men who
can crowd so much good thought
into half hour period as does Mr.
Domer. He closed his remarks by
telling how Christianity permeates
Individuals non-Christian in
dividuals. and non-Christian coun-
tries.
The fact that the speakers had
to appear here under such unfavor-
able circumstances was very mucf
regretted, since each gave a mes
sage of real vital worth.

CHANGES SLATED FOR THE
SCHOOLS FOR NEXT YEAR

County Superintendent #. A. Davis
hands us the following:
AS a result of the survey of this
county made by the state depart
ment Of education, the following
changes in school organization for
the year 1929-1930 as condition OF
participation in the state education
equalization fund have been order
ed:
: Center District
L. The high school which has an
enrolment of not more than Is pu-
pills be discontinued next year.
2. Although the Moscow school
has an enrolment of nine, it cannot.
be eliminated on account of road
conditions.
8. Center Bend school be discon-
tinued and the pupils sent to Hack
ney where they can be accommo-s
dated without additional teachers
Homer District
1. There are eight schools in this
district which have enrollments of
less than Is. On account of the
road conditions the Moody school
with an enrolment of nine should be
discontinued next year.
q Consideration should be given
to closing Oak Hill school and send
ing the pupils to Mountville.
Malta District
/. Two schools in this township,
namely, Brick and Cheneyville, have
enrollments of IA and seven re-
spectively The disposition of these
seems to be matter to be determin-
ed later On account of the number
enrolled and the road conditions,
however, both of these schools
should be discontinued next year.
Manchester District
No change in organization for this
district.
Marion District
The Todds, Buckeye, Big Woods
and Hopkins schools be closed and
pupils sent to Chesterhill, where
there is room to accommodate them.
This will require an additional teach
er. In case the basement under the
gymnasium is fitted up for manual
training they could all be taken care
of in the Chesterhill main building.
Should that not be done the one
room brick school on another site
could be utilized for their accommo-
dation.
Penn District
l. In the Pennsville grades there
are 81 pupils with four teachers.
Either additional pupils should be
brought to this center or the number
of teachers reduced.
2. At Westland school but one
teacher be hired this year instead of
two as heretofore.
Windsor District
Coburn school with an enrolment
of nine be closed and the pupils sent
to schools most convenient
Although the Rose Hill school
has an enrolment of IL, no change
is listed here, since it is one of the
schools in rehabilitation project
under consideration at Chadwick
Cross Roads.
DeavertOwn
/. The ultimate solution of the
problem of York district and Dea-
vertown, it seems to us is single
district to be created from the two.
g. The enrolment in Deavertown
elementary school was rs for three
teachers, which number should be
reduced to two next year.
Plans are also being worked out
for other townships.

While we have not escaped the
cold wave that has held the entire
county in its grip for the past ten
days, even extending to England and
southern France, at the same time
the blanket Of snow that has covered
the mountains and glades has COM

may have experienced. 1t is indeed a
beautiful sight-unlike a good many
sections. there has been little or no
suffering. The coal stocks are ample,
the gas pressure is good, the buck
wheat cakes and sausage are above
par, rabbits have been killed by the
hundreds, pheasants, turkeys, ducks,
wild and tame; and venison have
graced the tables Of many of our
citizens. These material comforts
and luxuries, combined with good
books and congeniaI friends, consti-
tute about the sum total of human
happiness-so, what have you?
