SCHOOL SURVEY DAY
All WAUSEON

A fair audience was present last
| Friday evening at the high school as
sembly hall to attend the meeting
held in pursuance of the GOVERNOR S
proclamation calling the citizens to
assemble in the various school dis
tricts to consider the educational in
terests of Ohio. The meeting was
called to order by Superintendent C.
]. Biery and the high school chorus
rendered several musical selections
after which Mr.. Biery called for the
selection of a chairman for the meet
ing. Principal Altstetter was chosen
to fill that position. The chair called
upon Hon. F. H. Reighard, who, bas-
ing his judgment upon bills that have
already been introduced in the legis-
lature, described the character of the
school legislation that is likely to be
brought before that body at its spec
ial session this winter, and its signi-
ficance in application.
Mr.. Altstetter, who was in at
tendance at the meeting of the North
western Ohio Teachers Association at
Lima, gave a brief report of the char
acter of the suggested changes in the
school system proposed at that meet
ing by Horace L. Britain, the ex-
pert, from New York, under whose
direction the School Survey of Ohio
has been made Mr.. Biery then dis
cussed these proposed changes in
their practical application here in
Fulton county. ]. c. Paxson then
spoke in opposition to the changes in
the system under the proposed plan
and also pointed out Improvements
which should be brought about in
some other manner.
The following resolution was pre-
sented and adopted by the meeting:
Resolved, that we the citizens of the
Wauseon Village School District do
not favor the proposed changes in the
school system of Ohio as outlined by
Horace L. Britain at the meeting of
the Northwestern Ohio Teachers As
sociation, held in November, 1913, at
Lima, Ohio.
Nor do we favor any legislation
that tends toward taking the control
of the public schools away from the
people Of the communities in which
such schools are located" F. H.
Reighard was unanimously chosen as
a delegate to represent Wauseon
School District at the Educational
convention in Columbus, December
9TH and 9Th. H. D. Meister urged
that the matter of constructive school
Legislation should be considered and
after discussion it was decided to
have suggested changes in the school
system presented at meeting to be
held in connection with the County
Teachers Institute at Wauseon, Sat
urday, November 22nd. On motion a
committee of three, of which H. D.

LINCOLN ECHO

The greatest temperance convention
ever held in the history of the ma
ton is the record made by the Fif-
teenth annual convention of the Anti
Saloon League of America, held in
Columbus last week. Over 5000 dele
gates were present and most signifi-
cant of the actions taken by this con-
vention was the adoption of series
of resolutions which committed those
present to a campaign for nation
wide prohibition to be obtained
through an amendment to the federal
constitution.
The crowning feature of the con-
vention was the presence of Major
]. B. Merwin, of Middleield, Conn.,,
85 years of age, friend and associate
of Abraham Lincoln, who told how
he had been present when President
Lincoln in the presence of Salmon P
Chase, of Ohio, signed the internal
revenue act and said as he did so that
he would give his right arm if i,
could be avoided.
Major Merwin was the personal
friend of President Lincoln and was
specially commissioned by him tx
work in behalf of temperance among
the soldiers during the Civil war
On the day of Lincoln's assassination
he spoke the following words to Maj
or Merwin: "Merwin, we hav'
cleaned up, by the help of the people

He gave it as his opinion that it was
unreasonable to suppose that any
set of commissioners would run 50
far counter to public sentiment as to
impose any unreasonable hardships
upon any citizen by enforcing a paw
ing ordinance for which there was
no good reason.
f. p. Kelly stated that his Obscr-
walton had been that by paving any
property the value of that property
was increased two or three times
the amount of the cost of the paving.
He stated that in his opinion that
section of the charter was fair and
Just and favored the resolutions.
0. S. Mckinney advocated the en-
dorsement of the charter upon the
broad ground of public policy. He
stated that perhaps with one exccp-
tion, he would add. under the new
boundary line, the largest amount Of
unimproved property to the tax list,
but stated that he wanted to see the
city grow and believed that the ben
erits to him would justify the addi-
tional outlay Of taxes.
He stated that it might not be the
best charter that it was possible to
get for the city, but that in his Opin
ion / was step in the right direc'
ton.
He reasoned, and very truly too,
that to a very large measure some
