COUNTY EDUCATIONAL NOTES.

The schools of Jasper county are nearing their closings in a number of the townships. The schools in Milroy, Barkley and part of Union townships will be closing in about three weeks. These townships are maintaining a seven months term. Jordan, Carpenter, Newton, Hanging Grove, Gillam, and Walker maintain an eight months term. The high school at Fair Oaks also has an eight - months term. Those corporations maintaining the eight months term will not close until the latter part of April. Newton county on our west, under the guidance of their popular county superintendent, W. O. Schaenlaub, is finding helpful and eager workers among the farmers in the Better Schools campaign. The County Farm Bureau has appointed an educational committee of three members in each township of Newton county to co-operate with school officials and others interested in better rural schools. Mass meetings as well as many committee meetings have been held in many townships. Carpenter and Newton townships in Jasper county are being affected with the same idea, but it is beginning to look as though Newton county is going to lead Jasper in time. New schoolhouses are to be built at Kentland in Jefferson township and at Morocco and Foresman. Movements are in progress to erect pew buildings in Lake and McClellan townships. Each building will be provided with a fine gymnasium in addition to all provisions for modern school work. This is a part of the general consolidation plan going forth in Newton county. Pulaski county is also awakening to the Better Rural schools movement. It is very likely that Carpenter township, Jasper county, will erect two fine buildings the coming summer. Barkley will erect two also. Wheatfield township schools will likely give way to centralized schools the coming summer. A humane awak-. ening among our people relative to the genuine worth of our children is responsible for this progressive movement. It is primarily championed by our state department but sprinkles down to every part of Indiana that has an indifferent attitude towards our country boys and girls. Some parts of Jasper county are making decided progress in the new era of fair play. - Bertha Stalbaum, who was teaching at the Norway school in Walker township resigned last Friday to attend school the coming summer. Miss Stalbaum is anxious to get twenty-four weeks of professional training the coming summer. This should seHe as a splendid example of a young teacher who has such confidence in herself that she is ambitious to make herself more efficient by investing all that she has earned during the winter in herself. Mrs. Margaret Pettit Hershman has kindly consented to teach the school out for Mr. Pettit so that Miss Stalbaum can go on with her training. Robert Rayle has been transferred from the. Union school in Marion to the South Marion Consolidated to relieve the teachers there of the tremendous load they have been carrying since the first of March. Union school is being transported to Bowling Green and Belle Center. Elizabeth Budd has been on the sick list and unable to teach the Independence school in Gillam township. Trustee LeFevre is also on the sick list. Mrs. James Stevens, wife of Extrustee James Stevens, is very sick at their home in Gillam township. Mr. and Mrs. Stevens have been in the West for their health but it seems that the Indiana climate has not been best for Mrs. Stevens since their return. • —

The eighth grade diploma examination will be held in the high school auditorium on Saturday, March 20th. Pupils should-consult their trustee relative to the place of holding the examination in the townships. Union and Newton will hold theirs at Rensselaer this year. The regular teachers’ examination will be held in the high school auditorium on Saturday, March 27. Hershel Case resigned at Wheatfield and a Mr. Moody from the University of Illinois, has been secured to finish the term. Walter Seegrist is teaching for a few weeks at De Motte. The state department issued a life license to Miss Margaret Marshall last week. The records in Jasper county show that the following teachers in Jasper county hold life licenses in Jasper county: Minnie Tinkham, Wheatfield; Addie Harris, DeMotte; Margaret Marshall, DeMotte; Nellie M. Sterrett, Fair Oaks; C. R. Dean, Rensselaer; Ora Sage, Rensselaer; Margaret Yeager, Tefft

METHODIST MEETINGS.

The meetings at the Methodist church will be continued through this week. The attendance at all services yesterday was large. The large auditorium did Inot seat the people last night. The congregation singing under the leadership of Prof. L. W. Breaw, was fine. The Rev. Robert 0. Kimberlin preached as announced on “Life Here and Hereafter.” It was a strong utterance on the continuity of the soul after death. The speaker said that any one who believes in Heaven must logically also believe in Hell. There was every evidence that the great audience was most seriously impressed with the message. The public is invited to attend the meetings night after night.
