CREEDMOOR, Texas, Oct. 15.—The
Creedmoor public school has been
making much better progress this year
than it has ever made before in its
history.
The attendance is better this yr
than last, and the new transfers and
special students speak for the thor-
ough work that attracts students from
other districts.
The business course, under the di-
rection of O. E. Turner, has added
much in holding the older students
in school, and is proving to be a suc-
cessful feature in the school work.
The primary department under Miss
Lucie Johnston is doing excellent work
this year. Miss Johnston has special-
ized in primary work and holds a de-
gree from the College of Industrial
Arts at Denton. >
The following students will finish
the tenth grade and receive their grade
