Ladysmith news-budget. [volume] (Ladysmith, Rusk County, Wis.) 1907-1927, 1919-09-12

The enrolment at the beginning of
| the second week is "a as compared
with 10. at the same time last year. A
number more is expected at the begin
ming of next week. OF the "A now en-
rolled 8 are highschoOl graduates, .
have finished the tenth grade, . the
ninth and the eighth grade.
| Marjorie Weston will finish the
course at the end of the present quar-
| ter She will leave the school with
some valuable experience. For the last
month of her course she is to assist
Miss Lottie Conley, teacher of District
| No. 4, Town of Strickland. Miss Con-
| ley has an enrolment Of about 60. or
| this number about IA are beginners
who cannot speak word of English.
1t will be Miss Weston's work to help
with the primary classes.
| Now that schools all over the county
are in running order it will be well for
| the teachers to remember that the
| training school stands ready to help by
conferences lending of material or in
any way desired We wonder how
many schools in the county are in need
of such help as we are giving to Miss
| Conley. We will be glad to hear from
teachers.
The law requires that all schools
shall have name such name to be
filed with the county superintendent.
This school has tabulated the schools
| of the county. and has found that ten
schools have not yet been named. We
wonder why? The law also requires
| that all schools located on rural routes
shall have a mail box. Has yours,
Miss Teacher? If not, you ought to see
your clerk about it.
Chapter 3S5 Of the laws of 1919 for
| bids minors from having in their pos
session cigarettes or the materials for
making them. Teachers ought to watch
their pupils for evidence of breaking
this law.
How about that exhibit for the COun-
ty Fair? 1t is not yet too late to pre-
pare some things for it. Every school
i'm the county ought to be represented
This school, as in the past, stands
ready to help teachers arrange their
material so that it can be exhibited eff
fectively
The law is very explicit in the mat
ter of the use of the schOOlhOuse fol
community meetings. Quite a large
per cent of the schools of the county
has community meetings. 1t would be
well for all schools to have them. A
large number of new settlers has come
into the county. There is no better
place for the people to become acquaint
ed with the newcomers than a meeting
in the schoolhouse. Teachers are
urged to take this matter up with theil
board, and arrange for some meetings
to be held just as soon as the harvest
work lets up a little. Call on this school
for any help you may need.
This Is one of the new laws which is
school boards. 1t provides that the fol
lowing days only shall be considered
legal holidays for the purpose of hay
ing. no school on that day: New Years
Day Thanksgiving Day; Fourth OF
July; Christmas Day and any other
day specially proclaimed by the presi
dent or the governor. School missed OF
Election Day or Washington's Birth
day must be made up. Not to exceed
five Saturdays may be used for the
purpose of making up time lost.
The Model school was obliged tt
y turn away pupils because of lack o1
seating room. People in the city arr
evidently appreciating the individual
help which school like this can give
to children.
