SCHOOL MATTF.RS
The Board has an Interesting Session
Over the Location of School
Houses.
The proposition of the school hoard to
establish school houses in various local
ities in the district, i» not meeting with
tlie unanimity among the fanners that it
was thought it would. The principal
aim of the hoard in e»tahli»)iing these
various schools was for the purpose of
eliminating the long hauls that are now
necessary to bring some of the smaller
children to the town school.
At tiie meeting of the hoard last Fri
day evening, this opposition manifested
itself quite prominently, when the Isiard
had up the question of schools for the
benefit of the patrons north and east of
town. An erroneous impression seems
to prevail among some to the effect that
it is the intention to establish the old
fashioned country school. Such how
ever, is not the intention of the hoard.
The establishment of outside schools is
simply an enlargement of the school sys
tem as carried on in town, and the man
agement of these outlying schools would
Is? under the direction of the superinten
dent of the tow n schools, witli the same
class of teachers, and the work would he
precisely the same.
It lias liecn demonstrated since the
erection of the new building, that insuf
ficient room will be provided for all
scholars should the present system tie
carried out, which of course would ne
cessitate tiie establishment of ward schools
in town. To better accomodate tiie
smaller children from the country, it was
deemed advisable to locate these ward
schools in centrally located districts,
where probably tiie first eight grades
would Is- taught, the same as if a ward
school was instituted in town.
Petitions and remonstrances were both
received, and a large representation ot
the farmers north and east were present
on Friilay evening to voice their senti
ment», and after a lengthy discussion of
tiie matter, the question was laid over
until the next regular meeting of tiie
board.
Mr. Hoskins presented a petition from
several patrons asking that a school
house be built on tiie corner of section 1,
in township 9, representing that from 25
to :!0 scholars would be accomodated.
On motion it was ordered by the board
that a building be erected as requested.
Tiie recommendation of the committee
on the location of the building live miles
west of town, on the 'Vended road, was
also accepted, and the same ordered to
Is- built. The location of the buildings
north and east of town will come up for
discussion again at the meeting tomorrow
evening.
A committee from tiie Civic Club ap
peared txdore tiie Ixiard, asking permis
sion to hold a house warming at the new
school house, the proceeds to lie used in
buying pictures for tiie school. The
matter was referred to a committee, with
power to act.
P. K. Kartzke presented a bid for tiie
building of sidewalks around tiie new
school house, and tiie work was ordered
done.
The lioard will meet in regular session
again Friilay evening.
