In announcing' the 1917 Industrial Contest and Premium ‘List for the schools of this county I wish to congratulate both teachers and- pupils upon the excellent work done. That a real and growing . interest has been aroused in: industrial work is shown in many ways, chief of which is in the quality and quantity of the exhibits. Last year two districts completely filled booths w_nh their school work. Three state pennants were awarded to this county last year besides a mumber of pins and diplomas. This year with the most carefully worked out contests and prepared premium-list it is hoped the heartiest co-operation of both teach- ers and pupils may prevail in making the coming exhibit the largest and best educational display ever seen in the-county. Such will be an extréme pleasure to the Fair ‘Association if accomplished and a desirable tribute for the schools of the county. - In announcing the 1917 Industrial Contest and Premium List for the schools of this county I wish to congratulate both teachers and pupils: upon the excellent work dome.
