MUSICAL PROGRAM

On Friday night January 18th, at
the High School Auditorium the Glee
Clubs and Chorus of the High School
will render a musical program of
worthwhile music The first part of
the concert will be composed of indi-
vidual numbers, solos, quartettes, etc.
The second half will be taken up en-
tirely with the Cantata "The Wreck of
the Hesperus" by Longfellow. Those
VINO know the poem well can realize
what might be done with it musically
Just that and more was accomplished
when Thomas Anderton set it to such
fine music.
On account of the church meetings
which will be in progress at that time
the concert will not begin until eight
twenty. This will give plenty of op-
portunlty to attend both church and
concert and still not lose too much
sleep.
1t will be well worth your time and
money to come out and see what the
High School can do. Admission twen-
ty-fve cents; reserved seats ten cents
extra.
Seats on sale at Fink & Haumessers

Tory.
LII. E. G. Cole,
Fres. Of Board of Education,
Wauseon, Ohio.
Dear Sir
1t was my pleasure to visit recently
IN the course of my work as high
I school inspector the Wauseon High
School, and l must say l found un-
Usual pleasure in it by reason of the
excellent work which it is carrying on,
as well as the cordial reception given
me by pupils and teachers alike.
Your superintendent and board are
to be congratulated upon the judg-
ment that has been exercised in the
selection of your teaching force. Not
one Of your teachers shows marked
w akness; on the contrary practical
ly all of them give distinct evidence
of superiority. All were interested
in discussing their work with me and
exhibited generally an alert and pro-
gressive attitude professionally.
The general appointments of your
school seemed to me to be excellent.
Deficiencies were noted however in
your equipment, particularly as re-
CARDS the teaching of physics, agri-
culture, and biology. l would recon-
mend that your Board place at the dis
posal of your superintendent such an
appropriation Of funds as will be suffi-
Gent to enable him to provide dupIi-
cate pieces of apparatus necessary for
carrying on the work in physics and
/ fol improvements in the facilities for
agriculture and biology.
In the interest of improvement of
agriculture, 1 would suggest an addi-
4 tlon to your teaching corps of a teach
er especially trained for this subject
Your principal handles the work very
/ well and yet he has not made such
I special preparation for it as the inter
ests of the subject really demand. In
community such as your school
4 serves, it would seem altogether ad-
4 visable to develop in a CONSPICUOUS way
your department e agriculture and
generally biology
/ The same could be said with refer
ence to your manual and household
arts. Greater stress could be laid
! upon these activities to the profit, I'M
doubtedly, of your pupils and the COM
munity.
A noticeable need in your school al
j ~ f<buoCOh Is IIc1G Ol liupiON0Q 1dClll-
ties for physical training. Your Board
I feel, should give attention at once
to the development of a plan whereby
gymnasium facilities can be provided
/ for both the boys and the girls. In
many communities too the school
gymnasium is made available to the
citizens generally, and it proves g
most worthwhile educational enter
prise.
Finally, may we ask you to give at.
tention of the lengthening of youl
recitation periods to forty-five min.
utes This will enable you to give full
fft-.7 minutes to actual recitation as
rcau red by the state department.
With high appreciation of the excell
ent work you are doing at Wauseon,
remain
Very truly yours
!. F. C. LANDSITTEL,
; High School Inspector

that was put on, at Saunders Hall last
Friday night when the Vandenbroeks
Of Napoleon and the Midgets of Wau-
seon, team composed largely if not
entirely of last years High School
team. The game was clean fast and
snappy. Referee Waldvogel from
Archbold gave absolute satisfaction
the first half closed with the Wauseon
boys in the lead but in the last half
the practice and staying Qualities of
the Napoleon boys began to assert it
self and the Wauseon boys from lack
of practice began to weaken and the
game ended with a score of % to 13
in favor of the Vandenbroeks. It was
a game that was full of interest from
start to finish and citizens of Wauseon
who were present had every reason to
be proud of the members of the home
