APRIL 7. 1922 SCHOOL NOTES On Wednesday school will close for the spring vacation. Work will be res umed on April 19th. Thursday evening Mr. Nelson enter tained the basket ball boys and the team that participated in the state stock judging contest at a banquet given at Pichotta’s resturant. “You may not be able to deposit $9 in a bank account for each of your children for five days a week, but you can do something of more benefit to them, keep them in school. Each" day in school is worth nine dollars * During the general exercise period on Tuesday an election was held in the a ssembly room. Election inspectors, ele ction clerks and ballot clerks were a ppointed. Voting was completed at the close of the period. The results announ ced after noon were very similar to those of the regular election announced that evening. Tuesday afternoon the two classes in civil government had their classes sus pended to be present at the town meet ing They were there with note books in handtaking the minutes of the meet ing. On returning to the classroom the items and amounts in the budget for ensuing year were placed on the black board and were discussed. The Town meeting and election is one opportunity pupils have to study civics directly On election day the town hall becomes the labratory of the school. A teacher’s club house is proposed by the Milwaukee Teacher’s association as a meeting place for the membership of over 1500 teachers. Some of the teachers will live there and rooms will be fur nished for recreation, meetings and the many activities of the association Oth er protfessions have their clubhouse and this seems a wise move on the part of this large body of teachers. The new Wisconsin transportation law has increased attendance at Union Free high school at Fisk Creek in spite of drifted roads and severe cold. The averade attendance has been 96.5 per cent. This answers the objection often raised that in our climate, consolidation is not practical because of weather con ditions The Gibralter Union Free high school is giving the boys arid girls all the advantages they would get from a city school, with a ourse of study much better suiited to their needs. The sixth grade held a contest in map drawing and the following piizes were awarded: South America Ist. Gertrude Lemke 2nd. Ervin Devener 3rd. Gladys Neider United States Ist Norman Fntsch 2nd.

The remaining span of the wrecked Menominee river bridge, which was taker* apart and hauled Wausaukee this winter, was found to be too short to span the Reshtigo river on the Athelstane-Silver Cliff county road and it will be used by the town of Stephenson in bridging the same river below Caldron Falls, where the stream is narrower. The county road committee has let a contract for the construction of new steel bridge, 11 feet in length, across the Peshtigo in the town of Silver Cliff. It will be built by the Elkhart Bridge Cos., at a cost of about $9,850. The span of the Wausaukee bridge was only 87 feet in length and could not be used there. When the new bridge is built, the town of Silver Cliff will complete its road to the Forest county line. There it will connect vith two fine roads, one leading to Wabeno and the other to Lakewood This will shorten the distance between Wausaukee and Wabeno about thirty miles from the roundabout course one now has to travel to reach the Forest county town. The Oconto cour.ty board has adopt ed as a county highway a town road ten miles in length which will connect with the Silver Cliff road and run in a southwesterly direction from there to State Trunk highway No. 32 at Lake wood. —Wausaukee Independent.
