DEALER IN BRING TOUR HOGS TO FRITTS THOMPSON AND GET TOUR MONET. Leighton BiUingsley, Monthly report of Luray School for month ending Friday Dec. 2nd, MJ7. Total umbers pu pils enrolled 46. Total days school in session, 19 Average daily attendance, 34.

Total number cases tardiness, -54. Total am't time lost by 36 nr. and 35 minutes. Eugene Daniels was the only one enrolled who was neither absent nor tardy during the month. In connection with this report I would like to impress upon the minds of the patrons and students the exorbitant amount of tardiness this month and the necessity of preventing it.

If I did not teach for that length of time there would undoubtedly be raised serious objections, and well there should be. But they will do what is worse by staying out a tew minutes each morning, which i3 more damage to them than the same amount all lost at one time, besides keeping tha whole school annoyed half the fore ncoa by coming in one by cue. I hope this matter will receive the attention of both patrons and pupils and if possible be avoided to the future, altogether. For the best and cheapest rigs in the county go to Shauls Livery, Luray. Fritts Thompson will pay more for hogs than anybody- For Sale, one dozen geese.
