BOARD DECIDING
WESLEYAN S FATE
SPECIAL MEETING OF TRUSTEES
AT MT. PLEASANT MAY
MOVE SCHOOL.

Mt. Pleasant Nov. 11.-(SpeciaD
Whether or not Iowa Wesleyan, the
oldest college west Of the Mississippi,
is to remain in Mt. Pleasant is being
largely decided today in a special SEES
sion of the board of trustees.
For the past six weeks rumors have
been circulated to the effect that
Iowa Wesleyan was to be CONSOLIDATE
ed with some other college or moved
to another town. Throughout the
conference the feeling has been prev
alent that Mt. Pleasant was indiffer-
ent as to whether or not the school
should remain here, although this
city has been its home since It was
founded in 1912. AT meeting of the
citizens held in the court house Tues
day, Dean Lymer stated that 1t Is alb
solutely necessary that Iowa Wesley
an have a 100000 endowment within
the next few weeks. The board of
trustees is DESTROYS of making the
school the strongest in this part OF
the state and it is their aim to add a
quarter of a million dollars to the pro-
ductive resources at once. w, s..
Withrow followed DR.. Lymer and ex-
planned what Iowa Wesleyan means
to the city OF Mt Pleasant. He urged
the citizens to make every effort pos
sible to keep the college In Mt. Pleas
ant, even though it causes great sac
rifice upon the part of the citizens
of the town W. B. SSeeley, w. F.
Kopp. Fred Crane, Hobart Willis and
Herbert jeffrey followed in fiery
speeches in which they urgently ap-
pealed to the loyalty Of Mt. Pleasant
to keep the school in. this city. From
statistics recently obtained 1t was
shown that Iowa Wesleyan annually
expends $150,000 in the city. Adam
Weir. who acted as chairman of the
meeting. explained that 1t would be
absolutely necessary for the citizens
of Mt. Pleasant to appear before the
board of trustees today and place
some definite proposition with them
A resolution was passed at the meet
ing to the effect that Mt. Pleasant
would meet any reasonable demands
made by the board. A committee of
five business men was appointed to
confer with the trustees. The person
mel of the committee appointed is
Fred Crane, j. G. McCoid, j.. T Whit
ing, John r. Hughes and VIII Pen
dray. 1t is not known for certain just
how much Mt. Pleasant will be able to
raise financially but 1t was expressed
by those acquainted with the situa-
ton that sum in the neighborhood
Of 100000 could be raised.

Long School Vacations.
(waterbury Democrat. )

All over the country colleges are thronged with students for summer courses, business schools are running about as usual, music pupils are studying music and private educa- tional institutions of all kinds are continuing their work And all over the country the public schools are closed for three or four months, great and costly educational plants are lying unproductive, the contin- uous progress of instruction is inter- rupted and millions of children are left in compulsory idleness to roam the streets or burden their distracted parents The long summer vaca- tion is rational enough in the coun- try, where boys and girls have to help with the farm chores in the summer. In pioneer times nearly all school children had such duties. But that is not a sufficient reason for turning present-day children out of school for quarter of year in the cities. Few of them need so long a rest. Most of them develop into temporary nuisance to their families and community, while the learning. of the past year fades from their memories and the power of mental application ebbs away A months summer vacation would probably be far better for city schools.
