aukesha-Waukesh schools will
not have additional married women
on the regular teaching force as re-
suit of resolution adopted unan1-
mously by members Of the board OF
education. The action was taken
when it was proven conclusiVely that
married women can not be depended
upon as can those who have no house
hold duties or other affiliations so
common to those who have given up
their name The resolution does not
mean, however, that those at present
on the teaching force will be obliged
to give up their positions. This new
rule will not be counted against them
when applying for renewals of their
contracts next year, nor does the reso-.
luton apply to widows. Substitutes
who are married will also be cOnsid-
cred, but not on the regular teaching
force. There are at present eleven
married women on the teaching staff
in the Waukesha schools.
Sheboygan-The teaching efficiency
of Sheboygan high school is far above
the average for the country. This is
shown by a comparison Of the high
school records with the report made
by John j. Tigert, United States COM
missioner of education. The report
shows that throughout the United
States the teaching profession has
gone backward in the war period so
far as training and preparation are
concerned. In the Sheboygan high
school all but one of the members of
the teaching staff are college or nor
NAL school graduates; there are II
of the former and seven of the latter.
Ninety per cent of them had additional
summer school work since their grad
uation and 10 per cent have received
high collegiate degrees.

diately after he had been given a

ing and he was advised to go home

Superior-The arrest of Burt Bunt-
ing, 10, at his home in Superior on a
charge of violation of the city liquor
ordinance by police detectives and
federal prohibition agents, may pave
the way to starting disclosures of the
sale and drinking of the beverage
among pupils of the Superior high
school, it was intimated. According to
current rumors, boy pupils at the high
school have been in the practice of
obtaining the alleged liquor and stor-
ing it in their school lockers.
