C0ULEE CITY PUBLIC SCHOOLS.

A consistent effort has been made
in all departments to make the work
as practical as possible, going on the
supposition that one day of actual
work in fighting crickets Is worth
several chapters OF study on the
same subject With this end IN
view the pupil constructs his piece
of furniture from his own drawing
in Manual Training, the Agricultural
students try actual conditions in
growing dry farming crops, also he
experiments in the demonstrating
room with engines and various other
implements. the best magazines and
periodicals are used in all grades to
show actual work conditions, and
specific ones are used as special text
books in some of the grades.
Along with the regular school work
the various other activities of school
life have been emphasized, such as
athletics, debate, declamatory work
and dramatics. Yin 1916 the nigh
school was placed on the accredited
list and at the recent visit of the
State Inspector it was continued as a
first class school.
The value of this is realized when
we realize that the graduates OF the
Coulee City Schools are unanimously
interested in higher education, all o.
the class of 1915 being at present in
higher institutions of learning and all
Of the class of 1915 signifying their
intention of continuing their school
work. While the attendance and the
number Of subjects and perhaps the
efficiency of the school has been in
creasing the salaries of the teachers
in certain departments has decreased,
perhaps rather doubtful combina-
ton. An attempt has at all times
been made to keep the school prop
erty as intact as possible and also to
beautify the buildings and grounds.
To this end one day in each year is
set aside as Clean Up day in which
the entire school assists in various
work Considerable money aside from
district funds has been employed in
this manner Flower beds have been
made, trees and shrubs planted, and
vines started to cover the less beau
tiiul parts of our school grounds.
In a district where the assessed
valuation is very low and the tax
levy exceedingly high as i'm this dis
trict considerable ability and JIdg-
ment is necessary to manage the IL
nancial department While the dis
trict is heavily bonded, the indebted
ness has been growing steadily less
for several years, the warranted in
debtedness being reduced $4,000 APP
proximately in 1915 and similar
amount in 1916 so that the warranted
Indebtedness at the present time is
somewhat less than $4,000. lThis has
been due In large measure to the

in GroteSque Costumes.

The main streets OF the city were
a solid mass OF humanity for four
hours Tuesday evening when the an
nual Halloween celebration. partlci-
pated in by young and old alike, was
held.
Every thoroughfare was packed
and iammed with people. who watch
ed the parade Of those dressed In
grotesque costumes.
Everybody in the crowd seemed to
have some kind OF noise-making
device and the streets were n regular
bedlam.
The celebration was thoroughly
enjoyed by all. and there were no bad
features at all. the police making NO
arrests. Once or twice some persons
In the crowd began pushing and as a
result one or two children were
knocked down but fortunately they
were not badly hurt.
