County School Notes

Over fifty of the teachers in the
county this year are home teach
ers. Among them are the follow
ing Ia beginning teachers: Inger
Olson, Blanche Glaze, Olive Rob-
inson, Aster Fretheim, Luella Mo
rim, Gladys Carlson, Ethel Peter
sen, Esther Nielsen, Mildred Mel
son, Helen Steinke, Alice Nelson,
Helen Bucklin, Margaret Banner
and Hazel Bruvold.
The many friends of Mrs Lucille
Arlington Ommar will regret to
learn that she passed away at the
Memorial Hospital on Tuesday of
this week. In September she began
her fourth year of teaching in this
county. Both as a superior teach
er and active member of her COM
munity she was much beloved by
all who knew her.
The school exhibit at the county
fair excelled anything we had an
ticipated. Even though the schools
had less than half the usual time
to prepare their exhibits, they
made a very commendable show
ing. Honors were awarded as fol-
lows: One-roOm rural-first, Lone
Star; second, Alcott; third, Phelps.
Two room rural first, Central
Consolidated; second, Reserve;
blood are typhoid fever and heart
third, LELAND. Town schools
first, Plentywood; second, Red
stone; third, Outlook.
I The Courtney school is planning
a card party an dbasket social fol
Halloween in order to raise fund;
for needed school equipment. The
public is invited.
. The following are excerpts from
the last state examination in by
giene: Three functions of the Skin
are chicken-poX, measles and scar
} let fever. Two functions of thu
blood are typhoid fever and hear
; leak. Typhoid fever may be stamp
ed out by keeping it clean and hav
!, ing cover over it.
Q. Why is the care of the sixtl
year molars important? Answer
{ Don't know-never had that.
Question-State two reason

SHERIDAN COUNTY
NOT IN REDUCED
INDEBTEDNESS LIST

Helena, Oct. 21.-Steadily les
sening county debts, without ma
terial increase in levies, are point
ed out by the state board of equal
izaion as not only highly praise
worthy but, in the opinion of
Commissioner Greene, probably
without parallel in the nation.
In 1923, the boards records
show there was a total county
debt of S27,708,65O Each year
since that time has seen a reduc-
ton of that total until, for 1880
the amount is only SIC, 1886 1892, cut
almost half within a seven-yeal
period.
At the same time the average
levy for county purposes never has
reached % mills and it is indicated
that this year will not be an ex
ception. In 1923 the average lev!
was 81 mills and a fraction and i
remained around that figure unit
1927, when it passed % mills. Las
year the average levy was 22.S
mills, a slight increase accounts
for in part by the adoption of tn
county budget system and desir
of the county authorities to avoi
overdrafts. It produced $10,S62
3O1.
There was time when Sherida
county was not associated to an
great degree with the debtor lis
, but now we are close 10 the leaC
Things are twisted. Several year
ago Sheridan County was decrea:
: ing her Indebtedness but at til
present time we are rapidly goin
the other way.

HOOVER MANUFACTURES

Inquiry began at the Bureau of

it were true that American work

that English or German workers
have, the Bureau of Labor Stats

official reports proving it. And il
there were no such official fig.

Stewart has no such figures. His

MORTLAKE MANOR TO
 HAVE PORTECOcHERE

Mortlake Manor, the widely known hotel in Brooklyn owned by Mrs. Theo- dore Roosevelt, widow of President Theodore Roosevelt, is undergoing al- terations. Mrs. Roosevelt, who is now abroad, is expected in Brooklyn in June. The hotel, dating back to Revo- lutionary times, was owned by Mrs. Roosevelt's ancestor, Col. Daniel Ty- Ter. She purchased the property sev- eral years ago.
 The improvements include the re- moval of the south veranda, the chang ing of the large barn in the rear to three-stall garage, and minor changes. Plans are under way which call for the removal of the front ve- randa and the building of a porte cochere, thus restoring the entrance to it's original style as shown in some old prints. It is understood that the Manor will not be open to guests this summer
