Page 8 Crook County Schools Show Improvement County Superintendent Myers re- ports that nearly one third of the schools of Crook county have already met the standard school re quirements established at the begin ning of the current school year. These requirements refer to the heating and ventilating, equipment and attractiveness of the school building, the appearcance and equip ment of the school grounds, the sanitation, the attendance, the length of the term, and the ability and efficiency of the teacher. During the past two weeks, Superintendent Myers and Supervisor Shave have been condi cting a series of standardization rallies throughout the county. This campaign for the betterment of the schools has met with marked success, and the interest and enthusiasm shown by the pat rons of the various districts argues well for the continued progress of educational work in Crook County. These rallies have been made the oecassion for real celebrations. Entertaining programs have been arranged by the community talent and pupils of the various school dis tricts. At the Pleasant Valley school the pupils presented a ver sion of the Judgment of Paris, in the form of an opera which was render ed in an unusually clever and effect ive manner. The program, which included a number of songs and recitations, was followed by a com munity dinner at which nearly every family in the district was represent ed. At the Laidlaw rally the program included a novelty in the way of a clever song bird imitation by one of the boys. The songs and folk dances of the primary grades of the Red mond school were presented in a very pleasing manner. . The Terrebonne school gave a dramatization of the story "Wolf! wolf!" by the primary grades. The acting of these little folks showed considerable training and talent. At Sisters a dialogue in dialect was given by two of the pupils which was received with the heart iest applause. The program was given under the auspices of the Parent-Teachers association and music was furnished by the Sisters band. There is a little girl at the Lower Bridge school who will doubtless win recognition later as an elocution ist. Her rendition of Stevenson's poem, "My Shadow," would have been a credit to a professional speaker. A clever and varied program was given by the pupils of the Deschutes school. At the Upper Rye Grass school the program included a dramatiza tion of Hiawatha., The play was given out of doors. Real wigwams were built by the pupils. A back ground of small trees wadset out, and even the red deer was there to make the play complete. The cos tumes, fringes, feathers, and war paint lent realism tf the'play, and the acting was especially Jgood. The pupils of the Wilson school presented a musical program. Addresses have been made at these rallies by Mr. Myers, Mr. Shawe, Mr. Lovett, and others interested in the educational work, appealing ! Classified" Adis ! I 1 t The Wants of the People.
