LAWS ARE OUT
. Of Harmony YET
The Consolidation Question
Needs More Attention at
Hands of Legislature.

That the North Dakota policy in
the matter of consolidation of schools
lacks consistency and that there
should be several important changes
in the state educational laws are dec
.larations of Prof. G. G. Schmidt, head
Of the model high school Of the uni
versity, in a special article just pub
lished.
Among the changes recommended
by Mr.. Schmidt re-:
The restriction of constructing
school edifices as the building COM
mits the districts to the permanent
maintenance Of the school.
A measure compelling very small
schools to close and the raising of the
minimum attendance at which the
school board Is given discretion to dis
pense with the school and provide ia
cilities for the children elsewhere.
The making of scores of schools,
which are de facto consolidated
schools in that they serve a much
larger area than the ordinary type OF
school, centralized schools by a gen.
eral legislatice act. Such a measure
would have to be drawn with care,
Mr.. Schmidt says, to avoid injustice
in individual cases where a permanent
central school would not be a wise
thing, but 1t could be made to obviate
the necessity of all Of these schools to
sition Of consolidating.
A law which makes 1t much easier
to form suitable districts. with terri
tory extending a proper distance from
the village in all directions. There
are several hundred villages and small
towns, he says, that are the natural
site of a strong central school.

"Plentywood is the county seat Of

its last council meeting contracts
were let for the construction of water
works. a sewer system and for laying
for SOME miles of concrete sidewalks.
"Plentywood has a most beautiful
