Mlsa Lelia Anderson has begun a summer term In the Walk I us district. Pupils in No. 19 are interested in their literary society which hits re cently been organized. On account of poor health, MUs Haltie Eaton was compelled to oloso the term In No. 10 a few days earl lor than was Intended. Several sohool houses were used for voting places on Monday. Election day is a legal holiday for schools so that teachers will not need to make up that dav. Visits to the schoolB in districts 1;, 10, 4'.', 51 and 81, gave opportunity of noting the work of Ave wide awake touchers. Pupils In Uio mountain dis trict are eager to learn and easily led when in charge of competent teachers. The people of Lake Creok district and some from adjoining districts crowded in and about the school house on the evening of May 30th Ui onjoy a program rendered by pupils of Miss Nellie Towoe. Selections were well chosen and rendered with a vigor that met with general approval. The ill rec tors of this district demand good teachers and the patrons are standing by t hoi r school in proper shape. The Dewey school is again at the front. A year ago a successful program and picnic closed the spring term and gave such general satisfaction that It was the wish of all to try the same plan again. Last Friday the pupils, in .charge of their teacher, Miss Zuda Owens, gave a progiam that was worth going miles to hear. Patrons of the Bohool and friends from near and far wore present. The sohool house could not hold the crowd, but there was room outside and much of It was appropri ated. After the program a feast was served by the ladles, which in quality would tempt the appetite of the most exacting epicure, and for quantity was far in excess of the demundB of the hungry throng. The Medford high sohool band furnished good music, and short speeches were made by T. B. Ellison, N. L. Narregan and G. A. Gregory. Patrons, teachers and pupils are united in this district in making the school the center of their common Interest Wanted. 1000 cords of 4-foot wood cut and de livered. Wanted teams to haul wood.
