OHMONITY Candidates Selected SCHOOLS OPEN At Logan On Friday fair In sessions which lasted just fortj-fiv- e minutes following the First Congressional District Convention in the Logan high school library, the Democrats of the first and seventh udicial districts nominated candidates for the fall campaign, Friday night. Unanimity marked the deliberation of both conventions. Attorney E. S. Chambers, Cache county Democratic chairman, was reelected as chairman of the first judicial district, with Lewis Jones of Brigham City as secretary. George D. Preston, judge of Logan city, nominated Leon Fonnesbeck for dis trlct judge. In placing the name of Attorney Fonnesbeck before the convention, Judge Preston pointed out thait the Logan candidate had been a party Header for several years and also attorney for Logan City. He is a son of Christian Fonnesbeck, one of the successful dry farmers of Blue Creek. Following the nomination of Atty Fonnesbeck by acclamation, Wm. E. Davis of Brigham City was nominated in a similar manner for district attorney by Lewis Jones. Mr. Davis is a prominent attorney of this city, having practiced law in this community since 1910. He has served as county attorney of .Box Elder and city attorney of Brigham and as attorney for several of the cities and towns of the county. He was well and favorably known throughout the territory comprising the first judicial district of the state.

Except where schools have been consolidated recently, the boundary lines between schools remain the same as last year. All pupils of all schools should report to their schools on Monday morning, September 3rd. All high school students should register on the previous Friday night and on Saturday. All children who are five years of age on or before March 1, 1928, may register, with the that if they cannot do the work in the beginners grade successfully, their teachers will ask them to withdraw-- , unless they are six years of age by the time school opens. No beginners will be received after the first two weeks of school. Next year, in outlying schools, no pupils will be received in the first grade. So every other year, alternately, no first graders will be received. This will help to solve the grouping of pupils in these mixed schools to greater advantage. The school census lists wrill be checked the first week. All children not registered will be placed on the list for the two school attendance officers to visit. Short harvest vacations will be held for peaches and beets at the time which the demands of the people seem to signify as most suitable. No matter when these may occur, It Is probable that not everyone will be exactly satisfied. Hence, tolerance is solicited. It is difficult to get the length of the school year required by the State Department between the) harvest in the Autumn and the planting or thinning in Spring. s So much objection has arisen to holding school on Saturdays that very tew school days will be held on Saturdays this year. The elementary schools will close on May 10th and the high schools a week later,. The Christmas vacation is limited to December 22nd to January 1st The institutes will all come on Saturdays, except the first one. The opening institute will be held this week, on Thursday and Friday, August 30th and 31st, beginning at 9 oclock a. m. at the Box Elder high school.
