BATES COUNTY SCHOOLS AND TEACHERS By Supt. P. M. Allison. Regarding the Domestic Science Con- test. __The work of the girls in the recent Domestic Science Contest, taken as a whole was unusually good, and we are glad to know that so many of the teachers and pupils of the county are interested in this feature of education, for it is a very important one. We know there were some disap- pointments among the contestants and we wish to say a few words regard- ing the judging of the different arti- cles, in hopes that they may be help- ful not only to those who were con- testants this year, but to those who may enter another such contest. In deciding which was the best made gingham dress several points were observed. The cutting of the material was noticed, the depth of seams and the way they were finish- ed was closely observed. There were several dresses that appeared very nice, and had they been finished with french seams or bound seams they would have been much better. Another matter of importance was the hem of the dress, the width and straightness of the hem was consider- ed, In fact everything that went to make up a well proportioned, neat dress was given due consideration. It was just.a little bit hard to decide which of the aprons deserved the prizes, as there were two kinds of aprons entered, the small dainty white apron and the sleeved apron. The same things that were noticed in the dresses were also given attention in the aprons, and after careful con- sideration it was decided that one of the white round aprons was in every way best made, while a sleeved calico apron was awarded second prize. There were few entries in the fancy work department, but all were good. More of the girls seemed interested in making the more practical,dress or apron. There was certainly a good collec- tion of cakes of all kinds, angel foods, devil foods and various kinds of layer cakes, The texture, the lightness and the taste of each cake were consider- ed as qualities of that particular kind of cake. There were not so many loaves of bread as there were cakes. Each loaf was given careful attention as to lightness, taste and baking, and all were found very good. Each of the girls is to be complimented on her ef- forts. We wished to call attention to these different points in order that each girl might understand in such a way that if she were going to enter anoth- er contest she might see wherein she might improve her work, and also that others might be guided in the same lines. We are glad to see the girls taking test may have been only a beginning of Domestic Science work in the schools of Bates Co.—-The Judges.

D. ¥: The next school visited was Clay Hill.. They have an enrollment of 21 and 20 were present. Miss Jessie Mawson is teacher and has been for several years and is doing good work as she always does. They have oiled the floor and keep everything up in shape for school. The pupils are good workers. At Crescent Hill they have an en- rollment of 26 with 23 present. Miss Flossie McRoberts ‘ig teacher and has been ever since she entered the pro- fession. She attended this school as a pupil abd has been the teacher sev- eral years, and the board will make a mistake if they do not keep her. -Down at Hess school they have an enrollment of 15 with 12 present and the three that were out have moved out of the district. Mrs. Bertha Robinson is teacher and has been Sev- eral years and is doitig fine work for them. The pupils ‘made a guod showing on the test and are willing workers. This school has had but five tardies in the first two months. ~ Several other schools were’ visited, but as they have been visited before ea speak of them 2. 3 up the work, and we hope this con-| ports 10 tardies. Mr. G. H. Miller, of Hume, with 40 enrolled, reports 9 tardies. Miss Ella Alms, with 12 en- rolled, reports 4 tardies. Miss Mary Fry, of Fry, with 13 enrolled, reports 1_tardy. Miss — Katie Frank, — of Sprague, with 35 enrolled, reports 2 tardies, both made by one pupil. Miss Lydia Reily, of Green Castle, with 20 enrolled, reports 2 tardies. This is better known as number 15. One thing more than any other that the teachers neglect is the ventilation of the school room. It is not uncom- mon onacold day each, as we have had the past week to go into a school room and find the windows closed tight and fast and the pupils having to breathe the air over and over again. The'work is not as satisfac- tory as it should be under such condi- tions and the worst of all the health of the pupils is not very carefully guarded. Another thing some of our teachers are too lax on is the super- vision of the games and play grounds. They often turn the children out and allow them to do whatever they care to without regard to the rights and privileges of others. Now some teachers do not do this but on the other hand take part in the games and play with the pupils and invariably where the teacher does this the com- plaint of patrons about difficulties on | the play ground is greatly reduced.

A Friend of John Brown Dead.
