calves, and lost his hearings
and instead of going back to
the house went in the opposite
direction, passing between the
Round Mountain and the moun-
tain on the right, through a
draw wherenow and then a
^ small foot print could be seen
but not sufficient to be able
r to follow or to be able to tell
in which direction he had gone,
as he could have gone .‘1 or 4
different ways. Some of the
4,searching party at this point
went up the draw and to the
right, some down the mountain
edge toward the river and some
up the mountain edge and some
in * the valley below in and
around the home, but the little
fellow had gone to the right of
the draw which leads out to
the E. M. Burt place, which is
about one and one half miles
from where he started. At’
this place he was found by Roy
Skaggs and others of the search-
ing party who phoned back that
the child had been found, and
the signal was given and pass-
ed along the valley and the
mountains, and men, women and
children could be seen coming
in from every direction, with
glad hearts and a smile of re-
lief.
When Mr. Skaggs saw the
> Mttle fellow and called to him, he
broke and ran like he was very
much frightened and Mr. Skaggs
^ had to get down off his horse
' and run and catch him. When
he caught the little fellow he
threw his arms around Mr.
Skaggs’ neck and would not
leave him to go to any one un-
til he was back safeiy at home,
even then the little fellow re-
luctantly left Mr. Skaggs to go
to his sister who had run to
meet them.
The little fellow had been
lost from 7 o’clock until 11, and
had gone through several farms
and over some of the roughest
of Kimble county and was only
scratched slightly here and there
and did not seem to be the
least bit tired out.
The mother and the family
are very grateful to the many
friends who responded so cheer-
fully and quickly in the search
and the rescue of their child.

Our school is progressing
nicely and everything is running
smoothly along. We have a
strong faculty this year and
have heard a number of parents
speak in encouraging terms of
the way the school is being
conducted this year. We have
also talked with students in
regard to the school in general,
and they are well pleased in
every way and show a willing-
ness to want to go to school
and we truly have * very high
regard for the boy or girl who
says *1 love to go to school/*
