Four School Districts in One.

A communication received in the department of education from R. Stevenson, principal of the Barton school, announces that advantage has been taken of the consolidation law passed by the recent legislature al- lowing school districts to join to- gether without legislative act. Some time ago the Barton district consoh- dated with an adjoining district and recently two others have been added, making the old distxict approximately four times it's original size. Instead of four small, diIapidated schools. with small attendance, the new Bar ton district will have one large, mod ern school, with full faculty. Stu dents from near the boundaries will be transported daily in large wagons, the cost, it is estimated, being con- siderably less than the maintenance of four schools, the majority of which would necessarily be inefficient.
