Notes From County
School Superintendent
The first rural meeting for the year
has been scheduled by County Bupt.
Martha E. Mulkey to meet in Coquille.
This will be held in the high school on
Saturday, Feb. 18th, beginning at
10:00 a. m. State Club Leader H. C.
Seytaour will be present to discuss
4-H Clulb work. Besides Mr. Sey­
mour, the following will speak or lead
diecuMiqn in the meeting: C. L.
Ward, Supt. of Coquille schools; Wade
H. Arstill, Prin. Lincoln Bldg.; and.
M m . Ines Chase, first grade teacher,
Coquille; Frederick Beck, Riverton; G.
W. Ayres, Arago; Lee A. Meyer, Coos
River; Carl Rice, Lakeside; H. L.
Ingraham, Bunker Hill; J. F. Burk­
hart, Eastside; Harold J. Lass well and
Alvin Allen, Bridge.
Empire has been chosen as the
meeting place for February 25th.
Regular school work will be carried cm
in the morning by the Empire teach­
ers, Mrs. Josephine Widner, principal,
Mrs.. March Kv Brown and Mrs. Dema
Youhgmayr. The Empire board and
parents «nd children are co-operating
by having school on Saturday morn­
ing for the benefit of visiting teach­
ers.
Miss Florence Hill remedial
teacher of North Bend, will lead in a
discussion on remedial work in read­
ing. A meeting will be arranged later
ia Myrtle Point.
At each place the teachers will
lunch together during the noon hour.
Although the meetings are planned
for teachers of rural schools, each in­
terested teacher is invited to attend
and participate.
Schools are doing good work in
spite of conditions. School boards in
general throughout the county are
taking a sensible attitude toward the
situation, giving more thought than
in the past to the actual needs of pu­
pils and the financial condition in their
own districts. Parents are endeaving
in every way to secure clothing in
which they can send children to school.
In her visits through the schools,
Mrs. Mulkey has noted many attempts
to adjust to the shortage in cash
which show that a large percentage of
poorer people are not allowing them­
selves to fall into that passive way of
soliciting charity until they have first
made definite effort to help them­
selves. Children’s rubbers made from
inner tubes, soles from rubbem and
galoshes being sewed to the uppers of
shoos and the trading of clothes be­
tween families. Among neighbors we
have noted more thoughtfulness in
helping each other during illness.
Families are seen exchanging meat,
vegetables, garden. seeds, etc. This
all indicates that a definite attempt to
get along in as independent manner
as possible is still a strong desire of
our Coos county people.
And lastly, as pertains, to the
schools, there is evident among teach­
ers a willingness to co-operate by giv­
ing their very best service in school
and by showing a sympathetic under­
standing of the child’s home condition.
