This opinion does not prevail where the facts are known, because the sclouls of Itasca county are sec- ond to none in this or any other state. The rural schools of this county num- ber sixty-nine at the present time and Superintendent Hattie F. Booth reports eyery ome of them up to a high standard of excellence. The several beards of the county have always adhered to a liberal policy. oth in the employment of competent teachers. andin providing buildings that are suitable for seliool purposes. A complete report of the standing of pupils from the outside districts would convince anyone interested that in coming to Itasca county for a home, the children’s education will not in any manner be neglected. The appended report from the King school in 26 is a fair sample of tbe werk that is being done in the heart of the county, ina region that was only opened to settlemént in 1902. Mr. C. M. King has had charge of the school and the appended report of the standing of his pupils is an evidence of the fact that he is an educaton of the class that brings results. Mr. King took a homestead in that town- ship about. five years ago and has taught the district school in the meantime. ‘The appended standing of the King pupils is something to be proud of.
