OFFICIAL REPORT OF THE SUP
ERINTENDEN1 OF CITY SCHOOLS

We venture to submit few facts
concerning the work and the standing
of the schools, because the public
school system is an investment in
which every citizen is vitally
interested. Like any other business
enterprise the results depend on two
factors-the amount of money in
vested-and the skill with which the
institution is managed.
We judge of the success of an
enterprise by the results which are
secured. In case of the schools it is a
little more difficult TO measure the
results. But in the long run each
citizen is able to judge for himself
with reasonable accuracy if the results
are satisfactory or not. The success
of the schools is also measured by
their standing abroad, in the state at
large, and with those higher in
stitutions of learning which are in the
habit of inspecting and passing
judgment on the different high schools
of the state. While errors are some
times made-for inspectors are human
yet in the long run this is fair
test. In this state there are two
agencies which inspect high schools

Standing Of the High School.

The standing OF tue Grand Rapids
High School with both these author
tiles has steadily improved. Both the
State High School Inspector and the
Inspector from the University Of
Wisconsin have commended the
progress of the school.
The Grand Rapids High School is
accredited at the University of
Wisconsin in the class A-the highest
class-and the same class in which are
included the other high schools in the
Wisconsin Valley such as Wausau,
MerrilI Rhinelander. Marshtield,
Stevens Point, Portage Class A
includes very large majority of the
strongest high schools in Wisconsin
Some misunderstanding has arisen
on account of the omission of the
Grand Rapids High School from the
list of schools accredited to the
Colleges and Universities of the North
Central Association. In explanation
| am at liberty to quote the follow
ing letter from Prof. A. w. TrcSsler,

Superintendent of Schools,
Grand Rapids, Wis.
My DEAR Mr.. YoUKER:-In reply
to your recent inquiry l will say that
the only reason the Grand Rapids
High School was kept Off the North
Central Association list was that some
of it's recitation periods were only
thirty-tive minutes in length. This
seems like small matter. but the
commission had determined to reject
all schools whose recitatiOnS were not
at least forty minutes in length. l
particularly regretted the rejection
of your school from the list, because
of the decided advancement which
has been made during the last two or
three years. Your excellent building,
improved equipment, well qualified
teachers, and better habits of study
on the part of pupils render your
school stronger than it has been at
any time since | began inspecting it
five years ago. I have looked over
your report, and find nothing in it
which will prevent the school being
placed on the accredited list of the
North Central Association this year.
Your school is in better standing than
ever with the University of Wisconsin,
and I cheerfully make this explana-
tion, which you are at liberty to
Wood County reporter. [volume] (Grand Rapids [i.e. Wisconsin Rapids], Wis.) 1857-1923, 1905-03-24
publish if you so desire.

1t is clear from the above letter:
This High School is in better stand
ing than ever at the University OF
Wisconsin:
The work of both pupils and
teachers has been steadily improving:
The omission of the school from the
school from uhe Association of North
Central Colleges and Universities is
purely technical matter which in no
way affects the standing of the school,
A number Of the best schools in the
state were omitted for similar reasons,
among them such schools as Wausau,
Baraboo and Madison. AS regards
the standing of the High School with

When they entered the house the woman
seemed though she was wild from the
effects of drug of some kind. Wilson saw

Money for Pensioners.

The Secretary of the Interior has made
reGustioE on the Secretary of the Treas
ury for Sl0.Gl3, coo with which to pay PEN
sions in the north central group of pension
agencies ON April 4. Pensions are paid
quarterly, as is well known, and there
are three groups of pension agencies. The
eastern and western, Atlantic and Pacific
agencies are paid one month, the central
western tie next and the southern the
next. This grouping has been made in
order to prevent the withdrawal from the
treasury or such a vast sum as would be
necessary to pay all the pensions at once
The money that will come on the reuuisi-
ton made today will be divided among
the following agencies as indicated: Chica-
