They have fin the ninth grade next year and the work in accordance of study. Up at Mingo school they were fin- ishing and evening the work for next year. Miss Holwell, “the present teacher, will teach the school next year, and we are quite sure the Board has done right in this, as Miss Hol- | slate black board being different to | well can take up the work next year for them without loss and since she | has done good work for them this year it is due her that she should be retained. The pupils of this school, who took county graduation, are sat- isfied with the results. Over at Olive they were practicing for the last day exercises, and they expected to have a big dinner in con- nection with the exercises. We had a special invitation to be present but on account of having accepted at an- other place could not attend. The pupils taking county graduation here expressed themselves as well pleased with the results. The patrons of this district voted to build a new school house and expect to have one of the most modern and up-to-date buildings in the county. They will put in a ventilating system something that no other school house has. Miss Dora Rush is teacher and prepared a very neat and attractive program of the exercises. Griggs has a light attendance due to the rush of work on the farm. Mr. ing very good work with Miss Dixie Sharp as teacher. The pupils here are making garden and are doing very well with it. They have an | abundance of cabbage plants ready to |set out. This school has a very fine | any I have ever seen. Over at Herrell they have a light attendance and but few to attend. The enrollment is small, and the prospects are that they will have six enrolled next year. These pupils are making garden and doing fine jwith the undertaking. They have some ninth year pupils here who are doing good work. Over at Grand View they had a very fine dinner and an excellent program the last day. We are quite sure if we could have such a dinner every day as we had here we would soon be fatter than at the present time. I am inclined to think these girls will enter the cooking contest and will make the one that beats them do some good work. I must confess that I had a very enjoyable time. This school has’ some as fine pupils one need care to find anywhere. Miss Elsie Englehardt had a very good pa- per on the school’s history.

COEDS DRESS ON $100 A YEAR. & Economics Students at Columbia Work It Out in Theory. Columbia, Mo., April 30.— The girls who study home economics in the University of Missouri are learn- ing to dress on $100 a year—theoreti- cally. Each girl has been required to hand in an ideal list of expendi- tures for dress for one year. These lists have been reduced until the ex- penditures do not exceed $100. One girl’s list was $600, another’s $200. ‘Many of the girls think that it is impossible to dress on $100 a year,” said Doctor Edna D. Day of. the de- partment of home economics. “It car-be done, though. It is estimated that the average family of five, with an income of from $2,000 to $3,000 spends about 15 per cent of it on clothes. You see that this will not be far from $100 for each individual. “The average girl spends far more on dress than is necessary. - Indeed, I think that many young men today hesitate to marry because of this. I think that a large amount of money wasted on clothes is due to a lack of systematic buying. When a girl buys athing because she thinks it pretty, or because she may need it later, she does not get the most for her money.” Doctor Day, head of the depart-
