COUNTY SCHOOLS TO CLOSE ON APRIL 18

County schools will close on April 18, as originally planned, despite the loss of time caused by the Influenza, county superintendent Williams announced Saturday. Teachers have been giving only the essential points of required subjects and children will be fully prepared to go ahead next fall, despite the six weeks' delay, said Williams. Conservation has been forced on the schools by the war and Williams thinks it a good thing. The school is only to teach what cannot better be taught in the home, and cooking and other "frills," cut out by the war, have gone back to their rightful place, the home. The swing to elemental subjects will stay for some time, Williams thinks and the extras will be introduced again, only slowly and after thorough tests.
