city of Chicago is the sec

When Judge Willis Brown inaugural

Salt Lake into a boy city or junior Salt

boys and girls to see that very few of
the junior citizens violated law. AS a
consequence the Salt Lake juvenile
court presided over by Judge Brown
had so per CEN fewer children per pop
ulation than any other court in the
land, and when one considers that the

eighteenth year this proved the wis

School Officers
Meet at WabasSO
Two Hundred Members of School

Problems
SUPT. PRATT LEADS
County Attorney Emerson Inter
prets New Pension And IN
dUstrial Tuition Laws

The school officers Of Redwood
County held their annual meet
ing at Wabasso Tuesday, Octo-
Der 10, Supt. Adella G. Pratt
having charge Of the meeting.
The attendance was very large,
about two hundred county Off
GERS being present, and the meet
ing was one of the most inter
esting and instructive that has
been held in recent years.
The morning session was TAX
en- up by Mrs. Pratt's report on
the things which have already
been accomplished and her out
line of the work which remains
to be done.
Discuss Problems
The afternoon session was
spent in a discussion Of the new
movements in rural education
such as consolidation, elimina-
ton and combination of classes,
farmers club work in combina-
ton with school work, physical
development through games and
the proper supervision Of play
grounds. There was also much
interest shown in the problem of
getting excellent teachers and
keeping them in the work.
Interpret Laws
County Attorney Albert Ener-
sen gave an interesting interpre-
tation of the new school laws,
including the teachers pension
law and the law which makes it
impossible for the high schools
to charge tuition for industrial
work up to the home district.
This tuition must now be paid
by the state. Miss Carney, the
state supervisor of Normal work,
was not able to attend as had
been hoped, and the meeting
closed with a discussion of the
problems presented by the ques-
tio,l box.
The officers showed great
spirit of interest in the work of
the meeting, giving opinions
freely and accepting graciously
the opinions of others. There
was distinct spirit Of co-opera-
tion, this was especially mani
tested in the matter of raising
more funds to pay for the new
school building on the fair
grounds.

listless sort of a contest. The
heat of the day srnothered some
what their speed. But the trou-
BILE was in the lack of physical
condition and had team of Red

the chances looked good for a
defeat. The boys, however, dis
covered their own weakness and

remaining big games of the sea-
son.

touchdowns Andy Luscher and
John Mason share with three
apiece. Andy it was that opened
and closed "the meeting" with
his winning drives. Captain Ma

gobbled up other gains by the
same route. Reynolds, Stevens
and Lamberton each got touch
down.
The third quarter was rest

wood opened up a bunch OF
passes, one after another, mere

and Lamberton the locals have
two unusually good passers, COO
under fire, and accurate in plac-
ing their throws. The smash
ing game varied with forward
passes and especially this oper
work has always featured the
locals.
Beginning with the SECOND
half of the game, a large num-
Der of substitutions were made
and lot Of promising materia
was shown up.
Max Stevens as usual delight

District AZ Opens
Fine New Building
Cine of Redwood County's Best
Buildings Appropriately Dedi-
Gated at Evening Program

One Of the best one-room rural
school buildings in the county
was recently dedicated in Dis
trict AZ, Springdale township.
The building was erected dur
ing the past summer, was built
after one of the most approved
of the state models and is not
only most convenient but very
attractive.
The dedicatory exercises were
held in the evening and the at
tendance was very large. The
pupils of the school, under the
direction of the teacher, Miss
Mary Nelson of Tracy, assisted
in giving the short program and
in welcoming the people of the
neighborhood to the new build
ing of which they are so proud.
Mr.. Stewart. the director of agri-
culture in the Tracy schools,
gave an interesting talk illus
trated with stereoptican views,
many of them Of local scenery,
farms, etc. Supt. Adella G.. Pratt
gave a short talk on the new
movements in rural education
and the spirit of the present age
as shown in the progressive
movements made everywhere.
Following Mrs. Pratt's talk the
ladies served hot coffee, sand
witches and cake.
The entire program empha-
sized the strong community spir-
it prevalent in the district, both
a spirit of sociability and of get
ting together for helpfulness.
There are strong indications that
a farmers club will be formed
soon and that the new building
will be made the meeting place
of other neighborhood gather
ings.
The people of the district may
we'll be proud of this new build
ing which they have erected for
their children as well as them
selves. The interior is we'll

with lamps which make it most

is finished beautifully in dull fin

with well-designed porch and

best looking school buildings to
be found in several counties. The
