A. J. PORTER MAKING
GOOD AS A TEACHER
Following is a report pub
lished in the Ringling (Okla
homa) News concerning the
work of our friend, Rev. A. J.
Porter, who is teaching school
at Asphaltum in that state:
Asphaltum
I notice in the Ringling
News writings from the dif
ferent school districts and I
have decided to say something
about Asphaltum school. First
I wish to say that we have
one among the best teachers
in the state of Oklahoma con
ducting our school. I want to
say that I have visited his
school the third time since he
began teaching and I find that
he is putting his life into the
work. I believe I can truth
fully say that he is not just
there in school waiting and
praying for pay day to roll
around, but he is putting
forth every effort possible to
make the school a success,
and I am sure he will by the
hearty co-operation of the pa
trons of which all are taking
a part. We are going to
build up one of the best;
country schools that can be,
found anywhere in Oklahoma, j
At Asphaltum. Can we do;
it? I say yes. How? First
by retaining Prof. Porter Vs
teacher next year. Second byj
building more room to our,
present school house for the!
convenience and comfort of
our children. This we must
have and are going to have,
because it is badly needed and
we are all as a unit. We
lealize that we must h^ve
plenty of room and the house
well equipped for the comfort
of both the teacher, and pu
pils. If this is done it will
encourage our teacher and
children and cause others to
move into our community on
account of the good school1
and good society. Our school
is progressing nicely. In
fact the pupils are advancing
rapidly. I know whereof I
speak. A Subscriber.
