will open the 1936-37 term on Mon-
day, September 7, according to an
announcement made today by R. N.
West, principal.
This is the first year of consoli-
dation for these schools and marks
a definite advancement in rural

A formal opening together with
dedication services will be held lat-
er during the month upon com-
pletion of the auditorium. Plans will
be announced later for the dedica-
tion program.
Large new busses with safety bod-
ies will insure safety in transporting
students to and from Bethel and
also high school students to Sham-
rock.
West urges that school patrons
and students give fullest co-opera-
tion to the faculty in order that
work will be facilitated. For a brief
period school will be conducted in
both the Bethel and -Benonine build-
ings.
In addition to West, the faculty
consists of Charles Stratton, Mrs.
Lucille Fleming and Mrs. Lola
