CONSOLIDATED SCHOOLS

In Crawford township, Washington
county, the consolidation of country
schools has proved to be a great sue
cess. All the schools in the township
except the two isolated districts have
been merged into a central school at
Charlottesville. Wagons gather up
the children in the several district
and transport them to the central
school at an average cost per team
Of $45 to $50 per month. Additional
particulars supplied by the Mt.
Pleasant Free Press as follows:
One man has four of the teams
In a year the teams have not missed
a day and the children never have
been late to school. The wagons are
covered so that the children ride in
perfect comfort the stormiast days.
There are SO many children, however,
that the school building has been
found to be too small and an addition
