Board members were entertained at
the palatial new training school by
the faculty and students, affording OPP
portunity for the county fathers to
see Just what has been produced by
the building committee which had the
whole project in hand. A course
luncheon prepared by the domestic
science students of the school was
served by young women pupils. Quite
an extensive program of music, reel

Supervisor Healy of Greenwood,
has moved his family to Milwaukee
to take advantage of advanced educa-
tional facilities. He retains his farm
in Greenwood.
One of the most important and very
commendable things the board has so
far done is to appropriate sum SUI
ficient to liquidate the Indebtedness
on the Vernon County Agricultural
Society grounds, $6,0tC. President
Minshall presented thu llstter to the
board in a favorable light, showing
the need and Importance of main
tanning a creditable county fair, cit
ing that many counties annually as
sist their societies. The committee
report was unanimous in favor of the
proposition, and there were but six
votes against the appropriation, and
a majority of the negative votes were
cast in the thought that the appro-
priation should be made to cover a
series of years, instead of in one
lump. This contribution will square
the Indebtedness of the society and
leave a balance of about 81 800 for
improvement on grounds, after the
funds due from tie state are received.
In compliance with a request by the
state board of health, that joint tubur-
cular sanitariums be established
throughout the state in groups of
three counties, resolution was adop-
ted and committee appointed to meet
with like committees from Crawford
and Richland counties, looking to the
location of such an institution. Su-
pervisors Goodell, Carter and Smith
were named by the chairman, to re-
port to the next annual session.
