PINE COUNTY RURAL
SCHOOL NEWS
A. e. GUSTAFSON
County Superintendent

This week is known as American
Education week. The purpose is to
draw the home and the school lit
tie more closely together. After all,
that is our aim every week of the
year. That is one of the reasons for
this weekly column. For this space
we are grateful to our kind editors.
There are still a few people who
think that 40 days of attendance is
enough for one school year. This
never was the law. Even the appor-
tionment aid is no longer granted for
40 days attendance. 1t is now based
on average daily attendance" The
legal reasons for granting excuses for
non-attendance are very few.
AS stated before, the local school
board may excuse a child of school
age for mental or physical def. iency
or for unreasonable distance from
school. Rural pupils IA years or over
may also be excused for home work
during months of April, May, Septem-
Der and October. Common sense tells
us that weather, roads, food and cloth
ing are also necessary factors to con-
slider. Most parents and children APP
preciate the value of regular attend
ance.
The great value of visual education
through charts, graphs. pictures and
educational motion pictures, has long
been realized and proved. The school
bulletin board and current events map
are both as essential as blackboard
space. Some of the larger schools use
educational slides and motion pictures
to great advantage. Mr.. Triplett of
the Bruno Agriculture department., is
doing some good work along this line.
Principal Herbert Holz of Kerrick,
is assisting and cooperating with the
Bruno school in this. Educational
movie programs will soon be planned
for Pine county rural schools where
electric lights are available. If inter-
ested. write to Mr. Triplett or Super
intendent Shawl of Bruno. or to Mr..
Holz of Kerrick, or to this office.
Special evening rural school pro-
grams announced for this week are
November 10, at Windemere, District
No. lie; and November 13, at Rock
Creek, District No. 4. OPT. Az

615 PAPERS TO TELL
SKELLY NEWS STORY

Kansas City, MO.-Stating that I'VE
have news story and need news
papers to sell it," w. T. Atkins, vice
president of Shelly Oil Company, an
nounced today that the company is
using more than 615 papers in it's
1886 fall and winter campaign.
Several years ago we introduced
ALTERNATING of our Aromax gaso-
line," said Mr.. Atkins. I'VE used a
large list of newspapers, and our GAL
lonage increased by leaps and bounds.
I'VE have decided now to take the
gasoline buyer into our confidence.
We are going to tell just how and
why we tailor-make gasoline to fit
the weather. To our refinery gasoline
we add, in varying amounts, a gaso-
line we make from gas-well gas. We
call it virgin gasoline.
1--WE tailor this gasoline at "a
points in our marketing territory. No
pump is more than overnight away.
In this way we can meet quick
weather changes with gasoline tail
ored as cold wave, or warm spell,
breaks. This gives our gasoline fast
start and high mileage, because the
gasoline fits the weather.
"This news story takes quite few
words to tell, and newspapers natur-
ally were our choice to carry the ma
jor brunt of the campaign"
Mr.. Atkins expects a large increase
| in business this fall and winter Con
ditions in most lines are better than
for many years, he asserts.
Sicily Tailor-Made gasoline is han
ded in Pine county by Axel Rydeen,
Sturgeon Lake, and Buster Stanton at
Willow River.
