FOR THE BOYS OF DELAWARE
COUNTY,

Every boy who is considering en-
tering the Acre Corn Contest should
enroll Immediately in order to re-
ceive the full instructions before it
is necessary to choose their seed and
prepare their seed bed. County Su.
perintendent Walker is anxious to
have ten boys from every township
take part in this contest. The con-
testants will b: subject to the state
prizes as well as the three splendid
county prizes. They will have the
opportunity of showing a ten ear
exhibit at the Farmers Institute next
January. These things, together with
the fact that the schooling obtained
from the contest will be invaluable to
the boys, make a unusually attrac-
tive contest. Boys, don't pass up
this excellent opportunity.

drought up 10 StduudIu.
Summing up, therefore, we cal
your attention to the following points
l. Until your schools are improved
in the particulars set out above, your
children throughout the schools are
not receiving benefits provided in
other schools of like size.
2. Unless your schools are improv
ed in the above mentioned particulars
they arc not fairly meeting the re-
quirements Of approval for high
school tuition purposes. Unless a
school is approved by the Department
of Public Inspection, it is illegal to
collect tuition fer nonresident pupils
in the district in which they reside.
With your seventy high school tut
tion pupils this involves about $500
annually, to say nothing Of the local
prestige.
3. When school has been desig-
mated as normal training high
school to receive $4,000 aid annually
it is presupposed that the conditions
in the school in all particulars and
the spirit and support of the COM
munity shall, if anything, be above
rather than below average school
conditions. We are confident that
once these matters are given full
consideration that the response from
the community will be all that is de-
sired, but until the conditions herein
stated can be adequately taken care
of, the Department of Public 1nstruc-
ton cannot feel justified in ccntin-
uips the Manchester schools upon the
approved list for tuition purposes
ncr upon the normal training high
school list to receive $4,000 state
aid annually longer than the present
school year.
