creased number of pupils, incurred
by the consolidation of two rural
schools, Oak Hill and HazePs. the
staff of teachers has been increas-
ed from seven to eight. The addi-
tion of two new bus routes has
brought the total number of busses
to six. 1t is estimated that up
wards of two hundred and fifty
pupils will respond to the bell on
the first day of school. Owing to
the fact that two members of last

and one to teach nearer home, a
new lineup of teachers will be in
force. A list of teachers follows:
Grade one, Miss Margaret Elruh;
Grade two, Miss Virginia Jones;
Grade three, Mrs. Blanche Smith;
Grade four, Mrs. Edith Moore:

seven, Miss Louise Robinson; Grade
eight, w. w. Hickman. Mrs. Mills

void and fills the position of sixth
grade teacher. Principal Hickman
