Mr.. HaselwOOd, in his announcement
OF the institute, has the following to
say:
THE School Board Convention and
Teachers Institute are called to meet at
Jefferson, on November 23rd and Oath,
because we believe that at this time of
the schOOl-year such meetings can and
will be more helpful and beneficial to
all our school interests than similar
meetings held at other times. We want
GALL" teachers and school officers at
Jefferson, November 23rd and oath. The
work Of the gatherings will put new life
in all school officials and teachers who
attend. Teachers will be allowed No
vember 23rd without loss of pay if the
school boards are properly asked. Four
days work week in school by teach
er who is alive with inspiration and
true professional spirit is of far more
value than five days by teacher who
lacks proper school disposition. There
fore, teachers of Jefferson county, don't
fail to be at the institute. Those who
wish entertainment for Friday night
write Miss Laura e. Schenk, jefferson,
Wis.,, and ask to have places reserved.
Many Of the best homes in Jefferson will
be open to entertain teachers. The
hotels will give reduced rates. If you
arrange beforehand you can secure re-
duced rates on the railroad, on the ten
party plan"
SCHOOL BOARD CONVENTION.
Mr.. Haselwood also issues the follow
ing notice to the members of the school
board, Jefferson county:
Chapter los, Laws of 1905. makes it
part of the duty of the county superin-
tendent each year to call a school board
convention. The same chapter states
that the clerk shall, and the other Of
ficers may attend the convention, and
that salary of $500 day and cents
per mile shall be paid by the school dis
trict to all officers attending the conven
ton. Therefore, by authority invested
in me | hereby call convention of the
members of the school boards of this
county to meet at the court house, in
Der 23rd. We have secured some excel
lent men to assist us in the convention,
and feel assured that single school
officer in the county cannot afford to
miss the meeting. Every member is
hereby assigned place on the program.
Come to the convention ready to give
and take. Let us know your successes
and your troubles in managing your
schools. Following is a tentative pro-
gram arranged for the meeting:
