Brooksville Has Bright Boy
John W. Yoak, teacher of the Brooksville public school, was a caller
at the Chronicle office Saturday. He called our attention to how
the Cincinnati Post had been bragging on one of the pupils of that city's
school and then went on to tell us about one of his pupils who is yet further
advanced than the star pupil of Cincinnati's schools.
The boy is Master Harlan Bower. He is six years old and is in
the third and fourth grades, having completed the primary grades in the
fall months of school. He has no trouble keeping up with pupils much
older than himself and always stands at the head of his classes.
He is a bright and intelligent little man and is a hard student.
The young man is a son of Mr. and Mrs. Rome Bower, of Brooksville. |
