Eagle River High School will Remain
on the Accredited List

The following letter was receiv-
ed by PIN. Ray from the Com
mittee on Accredited S-holIs of
he State University at Madison.
n adison. Wis, Dec -, 1906.
AIR. G. r. Ray, Prin., High School,
Eagle River, Wise.
My Dear Sir;
Our committee has recon-
mended that the Eagle River High
School be continued on the accredited
list in Group D.
The inspector was glad to note thai
a new room had been fitted up for a
laboratory, and that additional appara-
tus had been secured. A good table is
still much needed for laboratory work.
While your present library was barely
acceptable last year when the school
was accredited, we can not continue the
school on our list unless the Board is
willing to make an annual appropria-
ton of at least fifty dollars for the pur-
chase of books. Your rooms have been
considerably improved by decorating.
Your pupils were found to be earnest
aud attentive, but not uniformly strong.
Special effort should be made on the
part of the teachers to develOpe self
reliant, independent workers.
Very truly yours,
A. w. Tressler,
Sec. of Com.
