Temporary quarters have been secur-- ed for the remainder of the year. IMPROVE OLD BUILDOINGS Not only in new buildings has an improvement been made but a aum ber of the old buildings have been remodeled or added too, making them very well suited t> :. ; needs of the communities they serve. The Rose crans School has been much improy-- ed by the installi=z of new indoor tollets and a new furnace. The Mono ville School has new indoor tollets and some other changes. The Sand Lake School is a bribht spot with its shining white sdies and r'el roof but that is not the most import-- ant consideration from the stand-- point of the children for the interior has been changed and made attrac tive and an addition put on. It has a new convenience, a telephone. For this the district must/thank the big hearted president of the board, Geo, McCredie. The Wright School has been moved to a new location, but a few feet away, a basement, new furnace and indoor tollets being add-- ed. This is now a comfortable and convenient bwilding. The Ivanhoe Apr--étiepe building is ch:r; heating plant; thke and the school equipment, such as books, maps, and charts. The Bennett School just north of Lake Zurich is greatiy tnanged. Once it was a desolate looking place. Now it is clean and its new coat of paint, however, the great improvement is on the inside. The Flint Creek School has beer improved by changing the Anterior arrangement. An addition made it possible to install tollets and & new heating plant. The Fairfield and Murray Schools were remodeled and are now serviceable and comfort-- able buildings.---- The new buildings and> changes that have been made in the old ones released to districts the funds that had been withheld because buildings did not meet the requirements of the state building code. To .a great ex-- tent the funds were sufficient to meet the exrpense of making the improve-- ments and thus the districts bave been able to have the conveniences with but little expense direct to the taxpayers. 'There are now but about wtenty--five districts in the county that have funds withheld.' In many cases but little needs to be done, changes in heating arrangements or the providing' of suitable tellets, al though the funds witheld would pay the expense, and more, some boards are delinquent and show little inter-- est in their charge. URGES GREATER PROGRESS8 -- AAew districts yet have buildings that are entirely inadequate, unsant tary, poorly lighted, heated and ven-- tilated. Fortunately for the children the number is few and the time is not far off when every child in Lake county will have a chance to attend school in a buildifig which is at least clean and sanitary, | Cnfoady mb ou Time Pine--Tar Honey There are but twenty--three dis tricts in the county where outdoor toilets are used, not one--quarter of the rural and village schools. A few years more and this unsanitary relic and --demoralizing influence will have ceased to be. Communities are giving greater attention in these days to the appear-- ance of the school houses, nearly all are well painted, many are fenced. This year has seen many enclosed with attractive woven wire fences. It never was a sign of good community spirit or progress to tear away the front fence of the school yard and now many districts are realizing that a mistake was madge by so doing. There are many districts that should give heed to the appearance of the school yard, too many are without trees or bhave but few and some have uneven, sCarred surface to the playground. What is more de-- lightful to the eye on a pleasant day than to drive past a country school the building neatly painted, trees and shrubs in the yard, a good play-- ground properly fenced, the flag ov-- er children at play? With the improvement in material conditions has come a change for better teaching, better opportunities for the boys and girls.
