Secretary F. E. Mills adilresses the following to the School Boanis and teachers of Washtenaw county. School Day at the County Fair "is a good thing - push it iilong." The Fair Society solicita the hearty co-operation of all the schools of the county in order to make School Day at the Fair a success. We desire to aid you in siiovving to the people what the common schools of the county are doing and in starting thein on the way to establish school libraries. Last year the Society offered four fiags for attendance at the fair; by a vote of the Board of of Managers, after the Fair we presented ten schools in this county witl) fine flags. This year the Society has increased its premiums not only for attendance at the Fair, but also for schoolwork. It is hoped that teachers will take an interest in the work and that School Boards will give the teachers and pupils the day. We expect to make it a great Institute day. In addition to the premiums effered by the Society we have many fine special premiums offered by friends of the Society, for which we hope there will be a lively competition. These premiums have been offered after consultation with the Commissioner of Schools, Mr. AVedemeyer. and Ex-Commissioner Cavanaugh. Let every teacher take an interest in the affair. The list of special premiums will be completed in the Fair Xews, which will be the last publication of the Society before the fair. These will be ready by Sept. lst: If you do not receive a copy send to the secretary. We hope that every school will compete for some of the prizes. Eemember School Day is Sept. 25th.
