We feel that ever been presented in this. county and it will be so mich better if they can be gotten home in good condition. We want to have our picture taken at 1:30 if all can be here at that time. It is the wishes of all that the country teachers attend these exercises and of course all teachers are invited as well as all parents and friends of educa- tion. The district clerks are sending in their estimates and enumeration lists now and these are due not later than May 15th. We hope to have all inon time this year but if this should occur it would be the first time I am sure, but this is a very important matter and should not be neglected. Most of our clerks are very prompt and careful but a few are the reverse and last year it became necessary to go NUMBER 29 See out and set some of these. Many of our schools have employed their teachers for next year and others are seeking teachers. I have several calls for good men teachers at very good wages. Men of exper- jence are wanted and who can furnish good references. Valley school in Deepwater town- ship has already repaired their school building and-will not have to put off school on account of this next fall. If others who have work of this sort todo would only do as they have done it would be much better. Dou- ble Branch in Pleasant Gap is doing as well I presume but they should not quit until they have made a good cistern, something they have needed for forty years and need it every day they have school. The people down there are willing and have wanted one all the time but have been wait- ing for.some one one to make the start and it will be a credit to the present board if they make this be- ginning.
