Cole Schoo!
We are desirous to have our
patrons visit us and examine our
work from time to time. We
feel that their presence would
be an inspiration to us all, and
that they would be, by keeping
in closer touch with the school
and its workings, more in sym­
pathy with our efforts and would
appreciate, more, that which we
are trying to accomplish.
But the people, generally, not
from a lack of interest in the ed­
ucation of their boys and girls,
leave this work almost entirely
to the teacher.
As it is very difficult to get the
people out; we wish here to tell
something of what we are doing.
Our Supervisor, Mr. Benner
visited our school Monday after­
noon. According to his reports
the larger number of x?Lu>l- in
the county are progressing very
nicely.
We have just finished a test
for the fifth month and the re­
sults are very good. Following
is a reports for the month ending
February 19. Enrollment; hoys
21. girls 18, days taught 20,
whole number days’ attendance
G-144, whole number days’absence
46J, whole number times late 14,
pupils neither absent or late 11,
average number belonging 84.5,
average daily attendance 32.2,
per cent of attendance 93.3.
Those who have not missed a
day during the term are: Nina,
Maudic, Winnie and Harley Dar­
by, Carl Limbeck, Crystal Bates,
Zona Cole, Carl Kraschnewski
a n d Hazel Watson. Sickness
was the cause of absence in most
cases.
Bessie Cary is on the sick list
a t t h e present time.
Peter
Mertz is also unable to attend
school.
We expect to make our school
one of the standard schools of
the county this year.
We have
already arranged for three play
apparatus and as we have the
modem lighting a n d heating

,’one in order to standardize, is

Now parents and friends come
id see some good work we can
iterest you by reciting lessons,
inging songs or telling stories.
