Sands felt at home among his fellows and expressed himself very emphatically as proud of his native township. He urged Kankakee township consolidated schools should show growth as the school grew larger. Mr. Sands was followed hy County Agent Learning, who spoke in a pleasing manner about the merits of the school auditorium as a socializing center. The speaking closed with Trustee Dug.who kept his audience in continnousViaughter with his puns and Trustee Duggleby catered to fie suggestions of Mr. Sands by snowing that the greatest present need of the school at Tefft was roami for home economics and land for agricultural and school gardening experiments. He advised the taxpayers to purchase the several lots adjoining the school grounds which could be purchased very reasonably from Ex-trustee Elwood Davis. After Trustee Duggleby had spoken upon the point the county superintendent called upon several of the taxpayers, who responded unanimously favoring the proposal submitted by Mr. Duggleby. Some of those who responded twere Messrs. Maloney, Fitzgerald, Turner, Albin, Stalbaum. Besides these were Misses Peregrine, Jones, Seegrist, etc. Prof. Ashby estimated 125 'patrons present who favored the project without any opposition from any angle. There is a fine school spirit among the citizens of Kankakee township who are willing to do anything to keep their school efficient and set an example to the tardy townships. ~ The next rural educational conference will be held in the west court rooim' at Rensselaer Monday, Feb. 2. This conference is designed to get the impressions from the taxpayers of Newton township relative to the construction of a centralized school or the rebuilding of the one-room structures as they now are and have been for the last 5 0 years. The cost of either runs about the same.
