TO VISIT. SCHOOLS
A. 0. Neal and Supt. Will
liams to Examine High
Schools.
TO QUERY TEACHERS
Pres. Kelly and Pettis Reid
Not Compelled to Do
This Work
TO QUERY TEACHERS

The annual Inspection of tfe com
missioned and certified high schools
of the county will be made next week
by State Inspector A o. Neal of In
dianapolis and Charles o. Williams,
county superintendent. There are nine
commissioned and two certified high
schools in Wayne county.
A change in the school laws at the
last legislature caused the state
board of education to cease school in
spection and as a result, President
Kelly of Earlham college and Pettis
Reid will not be compelled to act as
inspectors.
Last year Prof. Kelly inspected high
schools in eight counties.
Inspection Complete.
The inspection of the state exam
iner does not differ widely from that
which Mr.. Williams makes of the
county schools. 1t is more complete
and the high school teachers must
give the qualifications by which they
received their licenses to teach, an
account of their schooling, former ex-
perience and answers to a large num-
ber of questions.
The result of the inspection in 1872
was the demand for the resignation of
the principle at Economy The teach
er was ordered to stand trail or have
his license revoked but he promised
to leave this county and seek employ
ment elsewhere His place was filled
in January by the assistant and anoth-
er teacher added to the corps
10 Commissioned Schools.
The commissioned high schools
which will be inspected are at Cam
bridge City, Greensboro, Dublin, Ha-
gerstown, Centerville, Fountain City,
Whitewater, Williamsburg and Milton.
Pupils graduating from these high
schools, with thirty-two credits for
work successfully completed. are quail
flied to enter any college without pre-
liminary examination. Richmond high
school is subject to a special inspec-
ton although it is a commissioned
school.
The certified schools are at Webster
and Economy. Pupils graduating from
these schools with the required twenty
eight credits may be subject to eXami-
nation for entrance to colleges.

took up with him, in all it's phases,
our present Endowment Campaign.
DR.. Butterick recognizes the serious
handicap in which the college was
placed by the flood in the Spring, and
yet he did not consent to any change
in the terms of their original PROPOSE
ton. | explained to him that the policy
of the Endowment Committee up to
date had not been as aggressive as in
some previous campaigns and this for
two reasons. First, we have been hop
ing and expecting to receive some
large gift and our policy has been to
hold off somewhat until we could an
nounce these gifts. Secondly, our En-
dowment Secretary has not solicited
subscriptions from those who have
formerly helped the college, since they
have so recently given to the debt
campaign. The amount he secured has
been obtained chiefly from men and
women who are new subscribers to
the college funds, and does not repre-
sent therefore the interest the Earl
ham constituency has in the welfare
of the institution.
From now on We will change our
plan of campaign. We must now have
donations from all sources and as
many of them and in as large amounts
as possible for we must make a good
showing before the General Education
Board at its January meeting. The
officers of the college had not known

Dill Opposes Step.
Howard Dill, superintendent of the
Water Works company, said the num-
ber of patrons in the vicinity would
not warrant the laying of a larger
antee to use a certain amount of wa
ter each year, and the extension was
ordered by the board.
He agreed to submit a report of the
income of the present line at the bard
meeting Monday, and also figures on
the amount of water rental that might
be expected from the window shade
company
Steps were taken by the board Of
works today todiscontinue electric
lines from the municipal plant. which
have been serving counry patrons on
the Abingdon and Liberty pixies. An in
voice of the lines were ordered to be
presented at the next board meeting
when the lines will be ordered sold.
Lines UnprofitabIe.
Superintendent Johnson Of the
plant said the lines were improbable,
more being spent for repairs alone dur
ing the last year than would be taken
in during the next three or four years.
The contract of the lines, he said, was
on the poles belonging to the Rich
mond telephone company. The tele-
phone company receives current in pay
for the contract, which is an added
expense.
The line is going to be rebuilt by
the telephone company, which Johnson
said would be an added expense to the
city. For these reasons he recommend
ed that the line be disposed of. The
board ordered an invoice and will
take definite action at the next seS-
sion.
Contract for sewer extensions from
the end of Kinsey. Pearl and Lincoln
streets to the river was awarded by
the board of works to F. f. Slick, to-
day. for s1150. The other bidder was
John F. Hipsklnd, whose estimate was
S11SS.
A bill for S1,735 in part payment for
the underfeed stokers at the munich
pal light plant was allowed.
Orders In Bills.
The board issued an order for all
persons having water bills against the
contractors. Sith. Sprinkle and Level,
for water used during the construction
of North Eighth street to present
them to the contractors at once. The
board has suspended payment of the
company's bill until they have settled
for all water used.

dered for sewer extensions completed
on Pearl, West Fifth and West Sixth
streets.
superintendent Dill of the Water
Works company was asked to have
the streets repaired on Fort Wayne
