Eye Diseases.
Several schools have cases of con-
tagious eye diseases, apparently two
types. Such mild diseases have been
known to sometimes result in blind
ness. The victim should by all means
see a doctor. If impossible to contact
a doctor right away, you should treat
with weak solution of boric acid pre-
pared as follows: Dissolve as much
in hot water as possible until water
will not take up any more. Pour
this into larger container and add
an equal amount of hot water so as
to weaken it to half strength. This
is an excellent eye wash and is not
harmful. Use with clean cloth or
cotton. Use often. Also good for
hot applications for blood poison
cases. Keep the above instructions.

Due to the poor condition of the
side roads and the large enrolment
which discourages transportation, the
district 38 schoolhouse northwest of
Hinckley will be rebuilt. The old
building was destroyed by fire last
winter. The board members are Mrs.
Blanche Kath, clerk; Otto Gruett,
treasurer and VIM. Hulke, chairman
In the interest of economy, one of
the two rooms at West Rock, district
IL, will be closed next year. The
entire enrolment of both rooms is
now and will be less than 35. Miss
Doris Thompson will handle the COM
bined rooms. The board members
are Ludwig johnson, clerk; Elmer
Blost, treasurer; Axel w. Johnson,
chairman.
Reports quite reliable seem to in
dictate that wedding bells will soon
be ringing for four or five more
of our very fine teachers. Our best
wishes are extended to these and
also to our other rural teachers who
have retired to homemaking during
the past few years.
A few of our teachers plan to take
schools in other parts of the state.
1t seems that most counties have five
to fifteen dollars higher average rural
salaries than Pine, according to re-
ports from those who have left us the
past few years. However, we have
some interesting letters from many
who desire to return to Pine county
as they enjoy our activities, our COM
munity spirit, and our general pro-
gram of assistance and cooperation.
So, with the new Hinckley grad
yates, the four or five new Teachers
college graduates, and those who de-
sire to return to Pine county, we ex-
pect to be able with all of these
available Pine county teachers) to
take care of all of our 80 vacancies
reported At least 20 or more of
these vacancies are occurring in
schools where the teacher desires or

ty location.
We feel that most of our teachers
have done exceptionally good and
faithful work The most successful
rural teachers must have greater
courage, more natural ability and
training than any other type or class
of public teachers. Thus wages should
be higher so as to encourage them to
remain in the rural field.
Here is where state school aids
become so necessary. They help to
equalize the educational opportunities
and local school tax burdens. After all
education should be most vital state

troll 1t is indeed far better and
cheaper to spend $50 per year per
child for school training than 10 times
that much per child for prison or
reform school, State school aids
should be paid in full.
