Scandia Schools Open Term with Plan for Strong Attendance
The regular fall term begins September 4, 1905, with required texts ordered and a push to minimize absences and tardiness. Parents are urged to cooperate as every pupil should enroll first day, to build a strong school through good support and teaching. The program outlines grade by grade subjects including grammar history arithmetic physiology rhetoric Latin algebra bookkeeping physics geometry and general history. Scandia teachers sign the notice.
Local notes highlight visits and farm changes
Sunday visits include Gene Nelson and family, Thos McGuire from Nebraska, and Fred West preparing to move his store. The corn crop ripens quickly due to warm dry weather. Several residents travel to Portland, Oklahoma, or California, and Epworth League and Sunday school activities are planned at the Chapel.
