Mrs. Andrew LANCE. a resident of

Springfield Advance: One of the
most distressing accidents which
possibly has occurred in this vicin-
lty for some time past, was the sad
ending which the infant son of Mr..
and Mrs. Joseph Braun of Town
Stark, met last Sunday morning.
The parents of the child came to
town to attend services at St.
Mary's church, and left the ten
months old child in care of the
older children. While the children
were playing in the yard near the
house, the baby crept out onto the
porch and spying a pail in which
the waste water and refuse were
kept, made a hurried clash for the
pail. Reaching for the sides, the
young fellow raised himself up on
his feet and was gazing into the
pail when he lost his balance and
fell headlong into the pail. No one
heard his cries, and he was discov-
cred short time after, life being
extinct.

These figures show that the people
Of Redwood county appreciate good
schools and that they put forth
strenuous efforts to improve them.
The old buildings are gradually
being supplanted by more comfort
able and more commodious ones.
Such improvements are proper and
in harmony with the times. In view
of the fact that the child spends
tWo-thirds of its child life in the
schoolroom, the building and the
furniture within it should compare
favorahly with the chiId's home.
While our school terms during the
past year were somewhat longer
than the previous Tin the..aggregate
sixteen months), nevertheless the
vast increase in the total attendance
in days is due to the persistent eff
fort on the part of the school boards,
teachers and superintendent to keep
and to get the children of school age
in the schools. Largely sbecause of
this effort 1873 pupils more will be
entitled to the state apportionment
this year. This means that about
$500 more state money will be re-
ceived than the previous year. While
our enrolment has increased slight
ly. namely q pupils, nevertheless
the persistent effort to have pupils
attend has been a saving to the
county, to make conservative es-
innate, of about $500. Because of
our commercial instinct we always
like to show gains in dollars and
cents. however the real gain in
knowledge acquired is beyond hui
man calculation.
While this has been a signal year
because Of advances along so many
lines, we shall not rest upon our oars
but rather feel encouraged to great
er effort. There is still much to be
improved upon. We solicit the CO.
operation of every parent and of
every citizen to make our schools
more efficient for the purpose OF
training our youth for life's battles.
May every parent appreciate the
fact that an education is the birth
right Of every child.

Co. Supt. of schools.
