RE-ELECTED AS
SUPERINTENDENT
On last Thursday, the school board
held a meeting in which Prof. A. L.
Farrell was re-elected as Superin-
tendent of the Grand Saline Public
Schools for another two year period.
Mr. Farrell is now serving his
fifth year as a teacher in G. S. H. S.
He is well known in Grand Saline so
little need be said concerning his pop-
ularity, his great success as a teacher
and his high, gentlemanly qualities.
We hope and believe that he will be
even more successful during the com-
ing years.

site. The location is good the build-
ing is well kept, and the school is
doing good work. Mr. C. L. Carter,
Mias Naomi Lubrick and Miss Dalla
Windham are teachers. >
Wise has a comparatively new
building and equipment well used and
well cared for. Good interest is
shown in providing the things the
school and community needs. Mr. De-
witt Dowdle and Miss Marie Watt-
ner are the teachers.
Dawson school u well managed by
Mr. and Mrs. H. L,. Jordan. The
building and equipment have been
badly abuse* in times past. But bet-
ter interest is being shown. This
community is proud of their splendid
girls’ basket ball team.
Odom has the active support of the
trustees and patrons. A teacherage
is provided on the grounds. Mr. Bry-
ant Stringer and Misses Kathlyn and
Zaleene Gray are the teachers of this
school.
Mount Gibson has very neat and
attractive grounds. Shade trees have
been planted, swings, see-saws, ball
courts have been provided and taste-
fully arranged. The building is well
kept. The school is very orderly and
the attendance is good. Mr. Leland
S. llardegree and Miss Lucille Harde-
gree teach this school.
Mr. and Mrs. R. D.Watson are the
able teachers of Corinth school. The
building is old but well kept. This
: school has lost by transfers, all but i
twenty-five of its scholars. This of ^
course, brings about a serious finan-
cial problem for the district.
Phalba has a very substantial
building made of tile. The school is
Zandt, Hunt, Kaufman, Rains, Rock-
wall and Wood.
The Tournament will be held in the
gymnasium of the Senior High school
building. Each county will be per-

“I frequently had very
