Most of thQ rural schools will op en within the next two weeks. Let i me suggest that the schoolhouse and I premises be put Into good condition : before the opening day. The floor should be well scrubbed, the windows washed, the outbuildings put into sanitary condition, the water supply looked after, and the yard cleaned up. There should be a supply of 'crayons, brooms, dust cloths (not a ! feather duster), and fuel on hand. If a closed tank or jar has not been provided for the water, this should be provided. A good water Jar fitted with a faucet, does not cost much Then if the pupils have individual cups, the requirements of the State Board of Health may be met. A good bubbler fountain attachment for a water jar may be purchased for about $3.00. The open pail should be discontinued.. It is a violation of the regulations of the State Board of Health. It would be a good plan to white wash the inside of all outbuildings All marks and pictures should be obliterated. The vaults should be made dark and fixed so files will not enter. If nothing better is at hand, a bushel or two of dust from the road might be sprinkled into the vaults to advantage. The window shades should be in good condition. The eyestrain caused by sunlight falling upon the books and desks of pupils is very detrimen tal. Let me suggest that you do not buy any more of the ordinary spring roller shades. It costs but little more to buy the adjustable canvas shade, which will outlast the ordinary shade many times and will give you proper regulation of the light. The new form of notice for the tax levy meeting will be Bent out soon. They are off the press, and the dis tricts which are anxious to hold the meeting may do so, though it is ad visable to wait until the valuation is known. Let us plan for a successful year's work. Make up your minds to make your school meet the requirements for a standard school if possible. t Y Y Y Y Y Y Y Y Y Y Y Y Y Y Y Y Y Y Y Fifty-Fourth ANNUAL Oregon State Fair SALEM, OREGON, SEPTEMBER 27th TO OCTOBER 2d, 1915 REDUCED FARES ON ALL RAILROADS $20,000 CASH TO BE PAID IN PREMIUMS FREE TRANSPORTATION FOR EXHIBITS-Two daring flights made daily by Munter, the Aviator.
