Information on Student Aid.

A letter just received from the Fed
eral National Youth administration
outlines preliminary information as
follows:
Assistance to deserving college stu
dents will provide assistance to the
extent of $500 each per month to
1870 of the college enrolment. The
colleges set up the work program
and select the students to be aided,
based on federal regulations. Write
the president of your college.
Assistance will also be given to
high school students to the maximum
extent of six dollars per month. See
your high school superintendent.
Assistance to high school or to col
lege students will be determined by
the fact that this assistance amounts
to the difference between going to
school or not going.

date has not yet been set for an
informal meeting of school officers

ton in the Coleraine city schools in

Superintendent Judin is leaving
Brook Park to take up government
work. Mr.. Seaman of the Pine City
faculty takes his place. Brook Park
will have four year Glass A accred-
tied high school this year instead of
a three year high school department.
Encouraged by the new state aid
laws, Willow River. Hinckley, Sand
stone, Pine City, and Askov have ar
ranged to operate under the 6-6 or
the 6-3-3 system graded junior high
school and senior high school.
1t appears that at least five or six
new high school cooperative trans
pOrtatiOn bus routes from the rural
districts were organized in Pine cOun-
ty during the past few weeks. One or
two of the very best prospects failed
to materialiZe. These are similar to
the excellent and successful plans
started at Willow River and Sand
stone the past few years. Pine City
expects to have this year nearly one
hundred pupils, mostly rural, enrolled
for ninth grade work alone.
A list of Pine county fair winners
in the rural exhibits department was
sent to the county newspapers for
publication. Some papers have not
had enough space to include this in
the items. Checks and lists will be
mailed soon to respective rural teach
ers for distribution.
The first Pine county rural schools
exhibit at our State fair captured
twenty-seven prizes and also a small
a
geOn Lake school captured twelve of
these twenty-seven ribbons.
