McA,lister's Good Record.

Prof. A. ]. McAllister, who has
been head of the Harrington schools
for three years and was formerly a
teacher here, has made a good rec
ord. The Sun says: by his in
dividuai efforts has put the high
school ON the accredited list OF the
Kansas university, has introduced
Normal Training course and got 1t
fully approved by the state board
of education, with an appropriation
of $500 per year from the state.
Through his efforts assisted by j.,
w. Creech and Mr.. Cannon secured
the passage of a law for the convert
ing of the $40 900 indebtedness of the
board of education into bonds, thus
reducing the annual debt from $14O0
to 5000 per year for interest. He
has introduced in the grades and
high school VOCAL music and has
organized the high school glee club.
1t was through his efforts that the
public drinking cup was abolished.
This was done in the fall OF 1906
three years before the state board
of health passed the bill. Another
thing that Mr.. McAllister deserves
much credit for he introduced a
salary schedule regulating the sal
aries of the teachers in both grades
and high school, and raised the stan
dard of certificates for grade teach
ers, also introducing a complete sys-
tenn of records for both high school
and grades and had the length Of
terms changed from s to 9 months.
He has enforced the truancy law,
and where we we're paying $40 to
$50 per year for truancy case when
he came here, last year we paid less
than 50. Mr.. McAllister left this
week for Atchison to conduct insti-
tute for the next four weeks. After
that he will conduct institute in Lin
coin county. He resigned bis posi-
tion here to more fully complete his
education and will at the beginning
Of next term enter the Kansas Uni
versity and take a course in post
graduate work"
