Those Jackson Township Brick School Buildings

ONLY 50 CENTS IN DECEMBER

OUR STORE FOR

At a recent luncheon of a party of representative educators of this and adjoining counties, one of our local after-dinner speakers in the course of his remarks alluded to the management of Jackson township affairs, alleging that some of the trustees elected in years gone by were incompetent to cope with conditions incumbent on men serving in this capacity, as evidenced by the school houses erected during their term of office, wherein they had allowed the efforts to economize to interfere with proper accommodations for the school children. The remarks seemed to center espedially on two trustees, who erected school buildings almost a quarter of a century ago, all of which are still standing in apparently good condition, except one which was damaged a few years ago by a very high wind. This latter building was located and built largely on the recommend actions and approval of two of the prominent citizens of the township at that time, Mr. George Washburn and Mr. Quin Kirkpatrick. These buildings were no doubt a fair average of the school buildings of that time. That was long before the consolidation of schools was thought of. Will our present school facilities and efforts of our present school officers suffice 25 years hence? The speaker farther criticizes the management of DePanw in not better fitting him for business. Perhaps DePanw was not entirely at fault.

In all probability this year sees the last one-room country school, the last “deestrict schule” in Coal Creek township. Center school, now the only one-room school in the township, now has an enrollment of 12. By law a school with an enrollment of 12 to 15 “may” be discontinued by the township trustee. With an average daily attendance of less than 12, the law says it “must” be discontinued, and the county superintendent is given a hand if it is not. It is not likely that Center can maintain its average daily attendance of the necessary twelve.
