wr,nteveiy tenelier Iu the county to
puri-liM;. their books and la some in
"taneea have displayed a letter oj
coinniemJaMnn of tlielr books from

that I have written no such letter
tiur authorized ony -one to use my
name J;i connect ion with any book
or books i:vilher do i la tend to. 1
am asking teachers to buy two
books this year and they are our
reading circle books. On the other
Laud 1 do believe that many teach
ers can afford to buy tbene sets of
books. My suggestion U to leave all
agents alone. heu I really want
the teaeheru to buy any book I will
tell the teacher and not the agents.
Col. ,1 N. Sharp of Mound twp
was hi Saturday and itusxvsted that
we !vc our exixrlouce iu the 1'asna

that while we wer in the nildht of

and canned our horse to break loowe
and we bud to (stop and rehltch the
liore and had juet gotten under

vva done outxide of tbepteeh-mak-fK.
We vUited school in the north
of thei oucty nop found them doing
well lu Piite of the book agents. The
school are willing and anxious to
take up any work we auk thcui to
and the teachers are taking ft good
interest iu the work and every teach
er vWted is In the readiugclrcle. The
rural teachers of Ieer Creek twp
have twelve members enrolled and
expect to reach fifteen Ufore thir
next meeting. They ure live and
wide uwnke tip there.
The following townships report
tine rend in circles: Heer t reck, hum
:;lf,, llowflrd, Homer, Charlotte,
spruce, Hinwiiee, .New Home and
Muund. Thi'm Is much interest in
th. work iu nil the township but
two or three and we. think tWr !
realize the Importance of the work.
Where the Work Is well orgiuiUi-d
leaeh.'rs g"i uucf good out i,t the
meetings by an exchunse of ideas.
The program of the teachers meet

uiiceralng the spelling cout ts and
the school exhibit to be held at tlic
a.-toclaliou ure b. lug mail.il to the

In the county will d soiiu tiling i,
each 4 these. The st hool cuiuiol U'
InteiVhted lu a belter work and the
