I02: 



Rural School Leaflet 



We expect to have a picnic or other doings the last day of school, whicli 

 will be the 29th of May. 

 I must close for this time. 



Sincerely yours, 



MILDRED E. JOHNSON 



Editors' note — The letters from EUwyn, Mary, and Mildred show the 

 spirit of Com Day. Other schools will be interested in them. Each year 

 Com Day seems to grow better and better; there is more enthusiasm, the 

 older folk help more, and the cars of corn selected are better in c}uality. 

 It is fine work. 



We enjoyed the verses sent by the Seneca Sharp Eyes, and since they 

 were written Mr. Tuttle has visited the school and spent an afternoon with 

 these wide-awake boys and girls. 



A good rural school exhibition 



In addition to or in connection with Com Day, many schools are 

 holding general exhibitions like the one in the picture on this page. We 

 recently attended such an exhibit in a school of twelve pupils and were 

 greatly interested in the effort that had been made to select good speci- 

 mens and to arrange them attractively. At such exhibitions some older 

 person who has the knowledge should judge the products and tell why 

 he judges as he does, so that all may learn how to do better the next 

 time a fair is held at the school.
