Sumner County's School Interests.

1t IS only by comparison with other
counties that we can arrive at fair esti-
mate of the value of Sumner county
as an educational factor in our state.
Organized as a county in 1871, its prog
ress in every sense has been remarkable.
There are los counties in Kansas, and
+ yet in point Of valuation Sumner county
ranks sixth. To make it better under
stood we give the six counties with the
amount Of their taxable property as
shown by the report of the state auditor
for 1898, viz: Shawnee, SIS, ,II2, ,344;
Wyandotte SII, 6SI ,o26; Sedgwick S9,-
S57,275; Leavenworth S9,324o5o; Lyon
$4,000; Sumner, $6,53S,942 In each
of the above counties, with the exception
of Sumner, are located larger cities which
90 to swell the valuation Of this respect
i've county as well as their population,
while Sumner county alone remains
distinctive agricultural county, and from
this source has sprung her great wealth,
and reputation as school county.
She has within her limits Of IISS square
miles, almost as large as Rhode Island
1917 school districts, and requires 245
teachers to conduct the machinery of
these schools. There is only one county
in the state which exceeds her in the
number of teachers, viz: Shawnee county,
with 25o teachers, and she pays the teach
ers and maintains these schools with a
levy of almost 4 mills below the aver
age levy of the state.
When we take into consideration her
graded schools, no other county in the
state possesses any better and very few
as good. Wellington, Caldwell, Belle
Plaine, Oxford, South Haven, Conway
Springs, Argonia, Milan and Mayfeld
are all excellent graded schools and will
compare well with those of any other
county. They are excellent auxiliaries
to the Sumner County High school, and
in time their growth and expansion will
be in close touch with it. Both are nee
essary to the future and higher develop
ment of the educational interest of our
county and state.
In the state there are 10 county high
,hools, and here again a comparison
may not be Improbable. We give be-
low the name, when founded, and num-
Der of pupils attending each county high
school in the state, so far as reported:
