SEVEN FROM THIS COUNTY
Graduation Exercises of Racine Keno.
sha County Joint Training School to
Be Held on June Is School Grows
Rapidly During the Year.

IWenty-e1ght young people will grad
uate from the Racine Kenosha Joint
County Training School for Teachers at
the close Of the present school year.
This announcement was made by the
school faculty during the present week
and June 10Th has been set as the date
for the 1918 commencement exercises
which will be held in Dixon IS Opera
Hall at Union Grove. Ten of the Young
ladies are graduates of the two year
course and eighteen are high school
graduates completing one year course.
Since last November, when the Ke-
nosha County Board decided that the
best interests of Kenosha county would
be served by a union of the two coun-
ties for training school purposes, this
school has operated ON Joint Training
School and the certificates issued to the
graduates viii not recognize any divid-
ing line between Racine and Kenosha
counties but will be- legal qualifications
for teaching throughout both counties.
Some of the members of this class have
already been secured for rural school
positions and others are negotiating
with different school boards. Districts
In which vacancies will occur for next
year would do well to get in touch with
this school at once, as here is a class of
young women trained for the work In
a one-room rural school and well adapt
ed by previous experience for rural
life. Practically all of this class are
girls with interests in the country and
the rural schools should receive excel
lent service from each member.
School officers should cut this list out
and preserve for immediate and future
reference. We present herewith both
the names and addresses of the mem
brs of this class and suggest that in
quiry be made of the prineipa. OF
