HIGH SCHOOL BOARD
VOTES TO ABANDON
CONTINUATION PLAN
REVISION OF LAW, IN AFFECT
JULY I, MAKES 1T OPTIONAL
WHETHER OR NOT THAT SYS-
TEN BE INSTALLED-DEClDE
ON DELAY.

Ottawa will not for the present have
a continuation school. At a meeting
of the high school board of education
which was held last night. the town
ship high school board passed reso-
luton which provides that the estab-
lishment of the continuation school be
postponed until the school is better
fitted financially to conduct such an
institution.
The action was taken after Cover
nor Len Small, signed a bill passed by
the legislature which provides that
the establishment of continuation
schools be optional.
Previously the legislature passed a
statute making 1t compulsory for
every city to establish continuation
schools, which were 20 be attended 8
hours each week by all children under
the age of sixteen years, who had left
school to work The children were to
attend the continuation school be-
tween O'Clock in the morning and
five o'clock In the afternoon. Training
was to be given principally i'll voca-
tional work, manual training, domes-
tic science and domestic art, although
some time was to be devoted to a
study of the rudiments OF high
school education.
The resolution which the board
passed postponing the establishment
OF this school Is as follows:
Resolved, That in view of the re-
cent legislation affecting the c@ltin'
uation school law that this Board
postpone the establishment of the CON
tinuation school uNl such time as
we are better prepared in point of
finances and equipment to undertake
such additional work
The La Sale high school board met
a few nights ago, and decided to abol-
ish their continuation schools in face
of the new legislation. In La Sale
this school has been in operation for
one year.
The Ottawa Township Board recent
ly purchased the Cole property east
of the school building for manual
training school to accommodate the
continuation school pupils. This
property will be held by the board
until such 4 time as continuation
school is opened

Last nights affair was the first out
cropping of Streuver's trouble with
the police since 1912, which it was
then thought, saw the close of what,
up to that time, had been rather
checkered career, with a series Of
grand jury indictments and court
fights to keep him out of the peni-
tentiary. Ancient charges against
the defendant ran the gamut from
confidence game to rape, Since 1912,
to all outward appearances, Streu-
yer. who came here from Peru, lived
the life of any ordinary respectable"
citizen.
His first dash into the limelight
came back in 1904 when he was in
dicted for larceny and burglary. He
was tried and convicted 'on this
charge, but later was granted a new
trial and acquitted. That same year
he was arrested for rape and spent
a long period in Jail From 1904 to
1909 the court records show him to
have gone straight" for a five years
period. Then in March, 1909, he -was
charged in four true bills of operating
confidence game. He was never
tried on these indictments and the
case, eventually found its way intt
the discard via the nolle pros route
