Special School Meeting.

The board OF education has called a
special school meeting to be held in the
high school room at 7 o'clock p. M, Wed
nesday, May 81, 1903
The purpose of this meeting is to vote
on the appropriation for a four-room
primary school building to relieve the
crowded condition of the present build
ing.
There seems to be widespread notion
that this need of room arises from the
fact that the high school is crowding the
grades out of the old building. Such is
not the case. The high school is not so
large now as it was six or seven years
ago.
The facts of the case are these:
BY the increase of the grade schools it
has been necessary to give up to them
from time to time rooms which were
originally intended for the high school
and which the high school needs in or
der to carry on its work properly. AS
result the high school is greatly ham
pered by lack of room, while some Of the
grades are housed in rooms unsuitable
for grade purposes.
This is condition of things which de-
mands immediate relief il our schools
are to have fair show.
All friends OF education should turn
out to this meeting and help in the solu-
ton Of this problem.
BOARD OF EDUCATION.

Wants Sewerage First.

Sewerage is an absolute necessity. A
new school is an absolute necessity Ed
gerton cannot have both at this time
without raising an annual tax of about
$4,000 which is entirely too much for a
city of 2200. The school board has been
carrying surplus each year from $1,000
to $4,000 more than their expenditures
have been. This is not legal as they have
only authority to raise money sufficient
for actual school purposes. The school
board admit that at this time two addi-
tional rooms are sufficient for the pres
ent needs of the children. Why then
build four rooms at a cost of $4,000?
Why not rent sufficient rooms for the
next year or two and see what the needs
of the school are at that time. We can
have sewerage now at cost of $4,000.
There is not city in the state that
needs it as badly as Edgerton does. We
are not against schools, but we believe
that the health of the community is Of
first Importance, besides we have spent
$4,000 in the last ten years for school
buildings. CITIZEN.

Royal Neighbors Meet For Initiation.


Members of ArEor Vitae Camp of
Stoughton, numbering seventeen came
down Wednesday evening to participate
in initiation exercises by the Royal
Neighbors of this city. A banquet at 7
o'clock was the opening of the exercises
and this feature needs no comment as all
we'll know the reputation which the
Neighbors have of serving we'll and good
at their banquet board. Four candi-
dates, Mrs. Gertrude Warner, Miss Della
Spike, Miss Nellie Williams and Mrs.
Laura Holton were then given the initia-
ton into the order. After this work was
finished short program consisting of
solo by Mrs. Andrew Mcintosh, one by
Mrs. M. Schmidt and a recitation by
Mrs. Harry Ash was carried out. The
evening was one of great pleasure to all
present and the joint meeting very help
full to the members.

Church Struck by Lightning.

lightning shocked three persons and
caused fire panic in the Methodist
church at Rockton, ILL.,, a suburb of Be-
lott. during Sunday mornings services.
The injured persons were badly burned
and practically stripped of their cloth
ing, but it is thought all will recover.
They are: Mrs. Edward Shotliff and Mr..
and Mrs. E. j. Pollock. Mrs. Shotliff
was burned about the head and body.
Mr.: Pollock's right leg was paralyzed
and badly burned. His shoe was torn
to pieces. Mrs. Pollock was burned on
the back and hips. The electricity fol-
lowed defective lightning rod into the
building and was conducted into the
audience room on a wire from which a
lamp was suspended directly over the
heads of those injured. The church was
filled with sulphurous smoke, precipitat-
ing stampede, which subsidized as soon
as it was found the building was not on
fire.
