Relics Lost to Germany.

The art-loving public of Germany
sustained a heavy blow" says the
Morgen Post, Berlin, when the won
derful Marfels collection of watches,
including unique specimens OF the sew
enteenth century and enamels of beau
tiful design, acquired after many years
and at a great cost, was purchased by
an art dealer in Paris. The collection
contains many specimens which can
not be found in any German museum,
and it is to be hoped that the fate of
these valuable trinkets will not be
like that which of late has overtaken
so many art treasures, that they be
sent to the new world and become lost
forever to Europe"

EDUCATIONAL.
BY W. E. LARSON.

THE COUNTRY SCHOOL SYSTEM OF IN
DIANA.
In the management of the country
schools Indiana differs greatly from
Wisconsin. In our state we have large
| ly the district system which is so we'll
known that nothing need to be said
about il here. In Indiana they have the
township system which, to some extent
resembles the township system which
has been established in some portions OF
Northern Wisconsin
We must first have clear idea OF
what is meant by town and Town
ship" in the Hoosier state. With us
township is usually thought of rs tract
of land six miles square and town Is
political division having its own local
government, but its area may be equal
to- greater, or less than congressional
township. In one sense, however,
town is also six miles square When
we describe piece Of land we speak OF
it as being in Town No, - which means
that said piece of land is in the-town-
ship from the base line.
In Indiana township is the political
unit aud may or may not have the area
of a congressional township. 1t is
equivalent to a town" with us. A
town" in Indiana is a village" with
US.
At every presidential election the vot-
ers of the township elect an officer
known as a township trustee. This
officer is elected on the same ballot as
the national, state, and county officers,
and holds his office for four years He
is paid per diem salary. He has in his
hands the administration of all school
affairs of the townships. He hires all
the teachers of the townships he builds
the school houses, he purchases the
and makes all agreements
and contracts.
There are really no districts in the
sense that we understand that term.
The district has no definite boundaries
but are rather indefinite areas, and
pupils may attend any school in the
township although he is supposed to At
tend the one nearest his home.
The unit for taxation is the township.
There is no such thing as district
There is township board
which has in hand the providing of the
school budget, but the trustee is the per
son who spends the money. We see,
therefore, that the township trustee in
Indiana takes the place of the eighteen
district officers of the average Wiscon.
sin town. This feature of town taxation
for school purposes also prevails in our
Wisconsin township system and ii is a
good feature in that it equalizes school
expenses over a larger area
