School Notes.

School election April LIST. Don't
forget to cast your vote for good
schools. Vote for the tax of Doc on
the 300 valuation. There are about
fifty pupils now in the high schools
and fifteen in the eighth grade who
are depending on this tax for their
educational opportunity next year.
Now, what is a little ten per cent. in
crease in taxes to the future of these
sixty-five boys and girls?
Secretary of Agriculture, Houston,
tells in his plea for consolidated
schools that the little n room school
house with its six or eight pupils is
the greatest waste of money. Con-
solidation and good schools cost less.
1t has proven true with Ironton and
Arcadia. There r now twelve pu-
pills from Arcadia in the high school
doing a irst-class grade of work who
last year did not have the opportunity
in their own district and never could
have a high school on account of in
sufficient funds. Last year they paid
$1S. 90 tuition to Ironton for this privi-
lege. Now their taxes cover all the
expense.
lronton high school is planning to
have representation at Cape Girardeau
in the various contests, May 9th and
10th.
High school club met in a social
meeting Friday night. Five new mem
bers were initiated; their names are
Robert Edgar, Louise Gross, Gladys
Bishop, Bernice Buckley and Ralph
Omoeundro.
Mrs. Loomis gave a lecture on
Measles and Scarlet Fever to the high
school Monday. These diseases are
acute infectious diseases. The germ
is ultro Microscopic. They are high.
ly infectious and very dangerous
great caution should be taken to pre-.
vent their spreading. A vote was
taken as to how many had NOT hat
measles. All in the high school (about
90 pupils) had had the disease with
only three exceptions. This il
astounding. 1t argues criminal neg
lect of ordinary precautions. We
should not have to suffer from these
diseases. Families infected SHOULD
see to it that strict quarantine is en-
forced and proper disinfection carried
out. 1t is estimated that these con
tagious diseases shorten the life o
the race from ten to twenty years.
