1912, and 1913, special depart
ments of Agriculture, Domestic
Science, Teachers Training, Man
ual Training, and Commercial
were added. This was made posi-
bic through the generous aid furn-
ished 10y the state. In 1916 the
State Aid amounted to $4,000,
which is about one half of the
amount received from the state at
the present time.
Enrollments for various years
differed. In 1885 there were
thirty-four attending high school,
and 433 in the graded school. Each
year the various classes increase in
numbers, as is evident by the fact,
in the spring of 1928 there are
728 attending school. Thirty-seven
of these are in the graduating
class. The average citizen is be-
ginning to believe education is a
training for citizenship; to prepare
for life; to develop a moral indi-
vidual, endowed with Independent
thought, with the ability to earn
an honest livelihood. Knowing that
learning is a spontaneous success,
the citizens # tits community have
furnished very favorable condi-
tons under which the children
through systematic and economic
effort, can accomplish a great deal,
and the product gained will be ob-
tanned in a shorter time and with
less expenditure of energy. Beau
tiful, modern buildings house the
up-to-date equipment, and every
department in the school ranks
high in the ratings in the State De-
partment.
The erection of the Junior High
School, in 1915 was the last addi-
ton in the building program. 1t
is a thoroughly equipped, modern,
Junior High school, and was built
for $4,000. A duplicate could
not he erected, at this time, for
three times that price. Those that
served on the school board, and
largely responsible for the con-
struction of the Junior High
School were James Caughren, John
McGibbon, C. D. Marshall, J. F.
Cooper, R. E. Hansen, ard p. B.
Hanson.
The Sank Centre public school
system is now rated among the
foremost in Central Minnesota.
Through Superintendent H. A.
Falk, an excellent school board
has applied it's policies to foster
progress. Under his guidance, the
system has been brought up from
an average rating to a degree of
excellence that commands the high
regard of all the tax payers of
the district. It is an easy matter
to secure teachers for the local
schools, because the Teachers Col
leges in the state consider it an
opportunity to be able to place
their graduates on the local face
ulty.

Fuller as teacher. This was only
temporary measure, for on May
27, 1876, an election authorized the
erection of an addition to the
school building and voted bonds in
! the sum of $1,000, and Raymond
& Owens of St. Cloud were award
ed the contract for construction.
Mr.. James H. Dunn, w. H.
Hatch, l.. Wright, j. R. Giddes,
D. D. Webster, J. L. Robbins,
Rev. T. C. Hudson, and J. w.
Perkins served respectively in Of
fetal positions up to 1879. At this
time and for a period Of years, no
additions to the building program
were made, and only few changes
in the curriculum took place.
J. C. Jaynes served as superin-
tendent at the time of the first
graduation class, in 1881. There
were five in this group: Emmons
Fish, Fred Cooper, Josie Apfeld,
Calvin Kelsey, and Franc A. Will
kins. This class completed the
high school course in three years.
In addition to the high school, the
other departments in the school
were first and second intermediate,
first and second primary, and as
sistant primary.
District Number "a, was then
enlarged to include a greater area.
Many pupils, heretofore living out
side of the district, and classified
as nonresident students, were by
this consolidation made resident
students and eligible to member
ship without paying tuition.
Arthur Thomas came to Sank
Centre, as superintendent, as sue
cessor to MIR. Jaynes. On Janu-
airy 20, 1881 the public schools
were officially visited by the State
Superintendent of Education. This
was the first time the local schools
were inspected by the State De-
partment.
On May 27, 1882, the electors
of the district voted bonds to erect
new building. The buildings
then in use were to remain intact,
and the new structure was to serve
as an addition to the old ones.
$4,000 was voted, but was insult
ficient to cover all expenses and
another levy was made. This
building served the needs of the
community for many years, and it
was land mark until 1914, when
fire destroyed it, together with the
other two sections.
w. F. Rochileau took over the
SUPPLEMENTARY in 1884. He
changed the curriculum from a
three year to a four year course of
study, and that explains why there
was no graduating class in 1885.
Music was added, and made d re-
quired subject in each grade. Each
year the school board appropriat-
ed money for reference books to
be added to the public library.

resignation. Illness compelled
him to leave during the year, and
Reverend J. F. Hamilton acted as
superintendent during the remand
err of the term. The opening of
school in the fall of 1888 found
w. J. Brown superintendent; also,
two principals, and eight grade
teachers. He resigned in January,
1889, and his place was filled by
C.. G. Paine.
Sank Centre had been very for
tunate in getting good superin-
tendenus. The district was very
fortunate in securing Prof. C. J.
Woodley in 1889. He served as
professor until 1895, when George
Stanton took over the school sys-
tenn. The Board of Education
joined the Associated school
Board Association of Minnesota in
1897. The faculty at this time was
made up of IL teachers, one prin-
cipal, and one superintendent.
The total enrolment in 1900 was
500. Lavatories, concrete side
walks, and fences were erected to
meet the conditions. Although
the rooms were crowded because
of the large classes, a high stand
ard of work was accomplished, es-
peciaIy under George Stanton,
superintendent, 1895 to 1904.
The educational activities were
then superintendent by w. H. Hol-
land. Very few changes were
made under his supervision. Dur
ing William Angus superintend-
ency, 19O6-1911, several new grade
rooms were opened. This was
necessitated by the very heavy en-
rollment and it emphasized the
great need for a new building.
The Senior High building was
constructed in 1912. M. D. Ay-
garn was at the head of the schools
at the time. Those that served on
the board were:
DR.. E. J. Lewis, president; R. E.
Hansen, secretary; Lucas Kells,
treasurer; w. IS. Dean; P. B. Han
son; John N. McGibbon.
The building cost the tax payers
$4,000, and it marked the first
big step in the Greater School
Program"
The next move on the part of
the school board to make the edu-
cational institution here bigger
one, came in the fall of 1912 when
four of the districts were CONSOLE
dated with the local schools. New
vans were provided for the trans
portation of the rural children,
and opportunities for a secondary
education were made available to
the country boys and girls.
Four additional rural schools
were associated with Sank Centre,
in 1918, for the purpose of giving
instruction in special works. This
practise has been discontinued in
the last five years. During 1911,

The history of the Public Schools
of Sank Centre is largely the mis-
tory of the development of this sec

other American communities, the
cause of education was strictly in
the minds of the people in the first
settlement. The first township
school hause was built of tamarack
logs, in 1860, and was located
four miles south from what is now
Sank Centre. This school was
taught by Miss Nellie Harmon.
There was another school located
on the other side of the first cross
ing of Sank River on the road to
Melrose, about two miles from

taught here.

Flower Etiquette for Various Occasions

Such procedure except when done by
an expert is messy rather than artis-
tic.
Flowers for table should never
be massed so high that they inter-
fere with the view of the guests
across the table. There is a rule,
too, against highly scented blossoms
for the dining table. Some persons
have sensitive memories as well as
sensitive noses, and strongly scented
flowers always remind them of fun
erals, in consequence of which they
are depressed. Though why they
should think of funerals instead of
weddings | never have been able to
understand. One man of my acquain-
lance objects to strongly scented
flowers on the table because he says
he would rather smell beefsteak than
any living flower-and that is, of
course, one viewpoint.
Another thing one must not do
with table flowers is to choose col
ors that do not harmonic with the
glass, the linen, and the dishes. For
instance, if you have one of the new
peach colored damask cloths, do not
put red roses on it. Choose flowers
in pale yellow that shade into pink
a combination of pink snap dragon
and pale yellow roses, for instance,
or pink and white sweet peas. And
babies breath, or flowers like Queen
Anne's lace combined with pink ros-
es would be charming.

Helpful Hints

Broken Cork
Quite often cork will break and
fall inside the bottle. Transfer the
contents to another bottle. Then
pour some ammonia into the bottle,
enough to float the cork, and allow it
to remain for two or three days,
The ammonia will consume enough
of the cork to permit its easy remov-
al.
To Harden Earthenwear
Earthenware can be hardened by
placing it in a pan of cold water,
and bringing it very slowly to the
boiling point. Then allow it to cool
slowly.
Producing A Cream Shade
Soak the garment in strong cold
tea and iron before it is dry. 1t will
give pretty cream shade and will
not streak the goods if properly done.

as there" writes a correspondent,
ian etiquette of flowers?" She goes
on to explain that she was criticized
severely for sending flowers to a
man in a hospital, the husband of a
friend, while the friend was out of
town. 1t seems the bouquet got the
sick man into, bit of trouble when
his wife came home and found it out.
We should say the fault in etiquet-
te was with the jealous wife. How
ever, it brings to mind the fact that
flowers can be badly misused, badly
arranged, badly selected, and some
times badly sent, too. In the case OF
flowers for a funeral, for instance,
the card should be addressed to the
nearest of kin, never with the name
of the deceased or, as happened in
one instance lately, to the secretary
of the person who had died. Many
persons who send flowers to the
house death has lately visited leave
the choice to the florist without tel
ling him either the age of the dead
or how well known and loved he was.
So that one sometimes hears of a
large wreath being sent to child
and a small bunch of white roses to
a man, and the florist is blamed in
both cases.
The flowers that are hung on the
doorbell should be carefully chosen
by a member of the family or near
relative. No longer is it necessary
to have the horrible black streamers
once so prevalent. Lavender, purple
and gray are now substituted for the
black in the case of older persons,
and violets, sweet peas, purple or
chids, and even lilies of the valley
are all appropriate for the door bell.
They are not necessarily made into
wreaths or sprays, but are sometimes
simple and beautiful bouquets which
are hung there or put in a concealed
hanging vase to keep them fresh.
Flowers For Weddings
There are a few things to be said
about flowers for weddings, too, al
though great latitude is now permits
sble in the choice of flowers for the
bride and her maids. The bride may
even carry silver basket of ribbon
and tulle filled with flowers. She
may carry an old fashioned bouquet
with lace about the edges and flow
ers of the softer colors in its COM
position, or she may carry a spray
of lilies. She may wear corsage or
even a boutonniere if she is married
in tailored clothes. Then of course
the only arm flower she could pos
sibly carry is the spray of roses such
as is sometimes presented to singers
at concerts, and if she carries such
a bouquet she must be exceedingly
graceful and chic to do it well.
The best flowers for men at we'd
dings are gardenias, but white carna-
tions are a close second and are apt
to keep fresh longer.
The flowers for decorations for
the wedding can be chosen with such
great latitude that it hardly pays to
speak of them, but of course heavy
colors Except at the Christmas sea-
son), such as dark red, are not to be
thought of.
Table Don'ts
Flowers for the table also have
their don't. For instance, one should
never crowd a table with flowers.
One should never use them in such a
way that they will fade before the
dinner is over. Many persons are
apt to strew flowers about the cloth.

Hot Chocolate
Use half-pound can of cocoa, fill
ling same can once with sugar and
twice with water. Mix these ingred-
tents with one-eighth teaspoon of salt
and cook in a double-boiler 80 min
utes. (The long period insures thor

cocoa and improves the flavor.) Add
