LAST WEEK OF SCHOOL

Mcdowell county schools are
now in the last week of the cur
rent term. Financial matters
compelled cutting off of a week
from the usual term, an action
by no means unusual these days
of depressions and recession, etc.
This in the face of the rich coal
field of Mcdowell, however one
cannot say the mine shutdown
is responsible.
The shortened school term is
more serious a matter than is
popularity supposed to be. The
children lose valuable time and
even a few days is no light
matter to be laughed off. Most
of the children themselves will
tell you this, nd all Of their
teachers. 49,. ..
In olden days, when you and
| were young, the termination
of the school term was a joyous
occasion indeed, as most Of us
must confess. The all-day field
