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
