STATE SCHOOL MACHINE LINKS UNITS Administration Advances as ‘Little Red Schoolhouse’ Gives Way. That evolution of the "little red school house” into a modern consolidated educational’ plant has not been accomplished without corresponding advances in school admirSstraticn, is shown in a summary of the State department of public instruction made public by Fred T. Gladden, assistant State superintendent. Six divisions comprise the State department. They are: Administration, inspection, license, attendance, rehabilitation and vocational. The administrative division comprises the duties of the State superintendent and assistant superintendent. Superintendent Is Head The superintendent determines policies to govern his term of office and is responsible for all decisions of division heads. An ex* ample of “policy problems’ to be decided by him is the county or township unit problem. Duties of the assistant superintendent include preparing the budget, occasional inspection of schools, arranging for all school lav/ publications and taking the place of the superintendent at conferences. The inspection division is the 'contact department” of the system. It adjusts local problems and moulds local units into the State program. Work Is Coordinated The license division issues all teachers’ licenses and permits and advises teachers as to the course they should take to obtain permission to teach. ' The attendance officer coordinates and directs the work of the ninetytwo county attendance officers. “No division of the State superintendent’s office is more intimately related to the welfare of the child than this division,” Gladden said. "It is a social welfare department in which the rights of the child are paramount to all others. It seeks to have every child of legal age attending school.” The rehabilitation division is a development since the World War. It was founded to assist returned soldiers to obtain further education. Later, broadened to include civilians, the division aids those physically unfit who might become a charge upon the State to get an education and aid themselves. Six Divisions in Office Agriculture, home economics and industrial arts, with a separate director for each, are included in the vocational division. Teaching of practical subjects to those who expect to begin earning their living at an early age is the aim of this division. The six divisions connecting at one end with the State superintendent and extending at the other into the smallest township school are responsible for the improvements in public education in the State in recent years.

They extend north to the high and grade schools and Broad Ripple Park, and are only four squares east of College avenue. They are In the high-class North side residence district, in the direct line of the city's greatest and best growth, and are on the city car line.

North Side Profits It is hardly necessary to call attention to the fact that twenty-live years ago there was little nor;h of Sixteenth Street, except cornfields, while now many of the finest residences are between Fortieth and Sixty-fourth Streets, and several are out even to Seventy-fifth Street. Many lots which ten or fifteen years ago could be bought for from SSOO to SI,OOO are now worth from $2,500 to $5,000. Those who are wise buy a little in advance of the big improvements. There were doubters then Just as there are today, hut they have only regrets now, while those who took advantage of their opportunities and bought made the big profits Just as you can do today. Millions of dollars have-ieen made in north side real estate, and there are greater opportunity today than ever before. What are you going to do? Are you going to be a doubter nnd drift along, or are you going to act at once and get one or more of the Northcliffe lots while you can get them at <ujr low prices, and realize some of the big north side profits yourself?
