Cass County School Matters.
Reginald Redway ab Knights
Bluff is trying to do eight grades
in ab old church building, cross
lights, box stove, big cracks in
the floor, not enough desks and
those double desks, No teacher
can tench eight grades. They
can only keep school. This dis-
trict should vote the tax limit,
with bonds to buildings, or bet-
me
dis
cpn-
38lch-
ter still consolidate with so
other districts to have scho
worthy of the children.
Alamauce is in a crowded c
dition, with some real live te
ersatid pupils. They need ,an-
other room and another teacher
or the grades should be sent to
Atlanta. If this were done in all
the surrounding districts, Atlan-
ta would have to enlarge her
school facilities.
Person not in anway connected
with-either school should be se-
cured to referee or umpire games
In athletic contests. It is dis-
graceful for the officials to get
wrought up in feelings so they
cannot call a foul except on the
other school team. What can
we eipect of the pupils in such
cases. If we cannot play without
personal combats, we had better
drop athletics. Coaches are
largely to blame.
G. D. Holland, Vocational Ag
ricultural man of Atlanta, is -a
live wire. He has organized clas
ses at % number of schools in
territory around Atlanta. Teach-
ers are1 urged to co-operate with
him and give pupils- full credit
for this work. Also give every
encouragement and assistance to
Mr. Littlepage and Miss Ray in
their work with' the* boys and
girls in club work. Give the boys
and girls time for the work and
full credit for what they do.
The following amounts have
b?en recently raised by box sup-
pers for school purposes; Wig-
gins, :$6o.85; Warren Springs,
$49; Forest Hill', $72.
I thiuk it would be welf for
trustees to allow Thursday and
Friday as holidays to teachers
who attend the State Teachers
Association meeting during the
Thanksgiving period.
Those interested in Negro Edu-
cation in Texas, write to the
state department for Bulletin No
212. This bulletin explains the
operation by the General Edu
cation Board, the Slater Fund,
and the Rosenwald fund.
On the Atlanta Court Friday
afternoon Atlanta girls defeated
Linden girls and Alamance boys
defeated Linden boys in basket
ball.
We have been assured that we
can get^Otf) from the Rosenwald
fund toward rebuilding the Per-
fection cotored school.
Everybody possible to the
meeting of the Teachers Associa-
tion.

Popular Young Couple
Married art Nov. Hth.
On last Thursday, November
11, Mr. .Joe Bailey Toombs and
Miss Florence Surrat, both popu
lar young people of Merkel, were
happily united in marriage at
Abiliue, the words that made
them man and wife being pro
nouuced by Rev. Batsell Baxter,
of the Abilene Christian College.
The groom is the youngest son
of Mr and Mrs T. .f. Toombs,
pioneer and tttOSt substantial
citizens of this section of the
state. The bride is the daught-
er of Mr and Mrs R M Surratt,
and was a member of the gradu-
ating class of Merkel High
School this year.
Both these young people are
well known and each has a large
circle of admiring friends.—Mer-
kel Mail.
Miss Florence is the only
daughter of Mr. and Mrs. R. M.
Surratt, formerly of this place;
had lived here from early child-
hood, and is loved and esteemed
by every one; we feel that the
young man who has chosen
her for his life-partner has in-
deed chosen well. We wish for
this happy youhg couple, all joy
and happiness as they journey
through life.
