PARENTS WANT
COUNCIL To ACT
'ARENT-TEACHERS ASSN
HOLDS MEETING AT
HIGH SCHOOL

The Parent Teachers association
held its first meeting of the new year
Monday evening at the high school, at
which time action was taken asking
the common council to adopt the re-
port of its committee which recently
investigated conditions existing at
the high school and which recon-
mended the completion of the Central
school building.
The chair was occupied by DR.. Will
liam e. Zilisch, vice-president, in the
absence of Franklin e. Bump, presi-
dent, who has moved to Madison. Mrs.
Cassandra E. Thrasher acted as tenn
porary secretary.
Ira G. Painter, principal, reviewed
the growth of the high school since
he came to Wausau. In 1910 there
We're only AGO pupils in the high
school, slightly more than could be
accommodated in the assembly hall.
At present the attendance is 94S and
next January, when Eighth grade A
pupils become Freshmen, the high
school itself will boast 1850 students.
The gain therefore has been 106 per
cent. The faculty, Mr.. Painted de-
clared, is trying in every way to meet
the diicufflties that this crowded con-
dition has caused to arise. Glasses
are crowded to capacity, halls are at
all times filled, so that traffic is made
one way. Mr.. Painter expressed the
opinion that the completion of the
Central school would be the most
practical way to solve present diff
culties.
Supt. S. B. Tobey was also asked
to speak and he informed the par
ents that about $240,000 to $250,00O
would be required to build an addi-
ton to the high school. He told of
the conditions existing at the Hum
boldt school and likewise expressed
the opinion that the Central school
would be the best place to start en-
largement. The board of education,
it was brought out, has studied the
question of more school space for
some time and has also recommended
that the Central school be completed.
Many other cities are this year MAX
ing extensions and erecting new
school buildings. Among them are
Marinette, Two Rivers, Madison,
Janesville, Appleton, Sheboygan, Clin-
tonville md Lacrosse, all inesting
from 100000 to $800,000 in new
school structures.
Questions were asked and the meet
ing proved to be most satisfactory
one. Brayton e. Smith, alderman
from the Fifth ward, spoke, and the
meeting finally adopted a resolution
asking the council, to approve the
completion of the Central school.

ToCovernor's Aid
Republican Club Members
Told Not to Waste Time
i'll Talking Against An
other Organizations Work

The attacks made upon the League Of
Women Voters at the luncheon Of the
Women's National Republican Club on
Saturday stirred Hiss Mary Garrett
Hay, chairman Of the league, to a reply
yesterday. In it she asked some direct
questions Of the Republican women as
to their policy on political questions
on which the league already has an
nounced its stand
What | find hard to understand" !"
said Miss Hay, "is the fact that q large
national body Of Republican women
would celebrate the first anniversary
OF their clubs existence by wasting
time talking against another organixa-
ton OF women rather than by launch
ing fine. constructive program Of
work that would be an inspiration to
all their members. Our Republican
Governor in his message strongly ad-
vocatcd equal representation for men
and women in the political parties.
Why did the women not discuss this
and pledge themselves to back their
tp'c ciitoi III MS HllUIlS 10 Orlng about
what all thinking people believe is a
just state Of affairs? From very
good source have heard that the Gov
ernor is not having an easy time push
ing this matter. owing to the opposi-
tlon Of many Republican men, and il
would seem that the women ought to
rally round the state executive and
show their appreciation
What is the Legislative policy of
.hc Republican, women Of the .ate Of
New York? VIII they actively sup
port such legislation as that dealing
with women as jurors? VIII they help
TO secure an enabling act for the Shep-
pard-Towner bill? Will they indorse
other laws that need to be changed
and that discriminate against women :?
The League Of Women Voters has a
very definite policy along this line
and is willing to join with the women
of the Republican and Democratic
parties to get such legislation through
in New York State"
