TWO RIVERS GETS
BRANCH OF UNIVERSITY
EXTENSION COURSE

AT gathering in the Hotel Hamilton
at Two Rivers last week, which was at.
tended by f NJ. Garrow of the Univer-
sity of Wisconsin, preparations for the
organization of "A course under the ex
tension bureau of the State University
were made and preparations were also
made for organizing class to take up
the work in this course. The extension
gives opportunity for preparing at home
for attendance at the university and the
doing Of a large amount of the regular
conrse work at the university for the
students who intend to take the courses
prepared on going to Madison. The
course was started n few years ago and
the first work under il was begun in the
city of Milwaukee; later Oshkosh, Ap,
pleton and Green Bay were added. Two
professors from the university will come
to Two Rivers weekly giving the neces.
sary schooling. The cost is nominal to
the students two thirds of the actual
expense being borne by the state and
one. third being borne by the pupils tax.
ing the work At the present time it is
said that more than fifty pupils have en-
listed and an effort will be made to in.
crease the enrolment to about hun
dred. This move is in the right direc.
ton and one that should be encouraged
in every possible way. Undoubtedly
the Board of Education will extend the
use of rooms in the high school for the
carrying on Of the work and will aid the
movement otherwise as far as possible.

state superintendent free high school

any tract of contiguous territory of not
less than thirty six square miles. such

or by lines bounding in part an ex

cases where impossible streams, lakes,
or swamp render it impracticable to fol

Chapter 493, Laws of 1907
1t will be seen that according TO this
law any 36 square miles of contiguous
territory may be organized into Union

Franklin, for instance, could organize
either under the OLD law or under the
new. The difference would be in the
manner of procedure. AS township

the union system the annual school
meeting for the election Of officers and

The advantage of this system is that
school matters are kept separate from
