Melrose Petition To Join Consolidated School District Approved Dy Boundary Board By HAZEL 8. MARSH Looklnaalaes Correspondent ' Appearing before the county school system boundary board Monday were members of the West Melrose district with a petition seeking to be admitted to the newly consolidated school district com. prising Cleveland, Elgarose and Melrose. The request wss granted and this group with some 30 school children will be added to the Mel rose district. A new building is now under construction to accommodate the consolidation. ... A number of years ago this terri tory waa admitted to the Looking, glass school district, in order to provide transporation for their pu pils when the bus line wss put into operation. It was deemed feasible to make this change now approved for several reasons, among them being the shorter-distance in trans portation for this group of children. Cutting down the enrollment In the Lookingglass district will like ly' reduce the number of teachers required to meet the state stand ards in this school. This will pro vide a unique situation among the schools of today in that the dis trict will have school buildings with ample space to carry on the work with no crowding. County records came up with the information that a school district was in operstion in Lookingglsss in August 1853. It was designated as district 13, which number still stands. At that time the districts were numbered in the order in which they were organised and the county school superintendent's office advises that the records do not indicate how long the schools msy hsve been operating prior to that date. At that time a one-room building was provided for Diatrict 13. From time to time as the popu lation increased additions were made and the original frame struc ture wss eventually enlarged to a County Road Plans Include Several Bridge Projects Seversl bridge projects are on the slate of the Douelas county road building program this spring ana summer, announced Koadmas ter F. C. Freer. Two projects are already under way. One is a 75-foot span across Deer Creek south of Dixonville on the Dixonville-Csrnes road 18. The other is an 83-foot span across Champaign creek at Melrose. Both of these bridges are 24 feet wide, and will have concrete decks built on pressure treated creosoted piling and with creosoted lumber used for construction. Most of the older county bridges are 15 feet in width. The construction is being car ried oh without closing the roads. The old bridge is being sawed in two. Half of it is torn out and hslf of the new structure is erected. Then the second half of the old portion is removed and the new one completed. Other projects on the summer program include a 45-foot span 24 feet wide across Deer Creek at the Dixon place east of Dixon ville on road' 17; an 85-foot span with 22-foot width over Tenmile creek on road S, a mile and one- half northwest of Tenmile, and the largest Span, 113 feet by 22 feet wide, across Lost creek, about 18 miles below Umpqua on road 33. While the present work is be ing done by county crews, some of the later work may be let to contractors on bids, said Freer. The bridges being rebuilt are nar row and badly in need of repair, he said. He estimates the cost at about $100 per lineal foot. Additional bridge construction 16 being mapped, and considerable placing of culverts with dirt fills is scheduled. The county hss adopted a policy of placing cul verts wherever possible to avoid the upkeep of bridges.

During the past yesr a modern heating plant was installed with boiler room adjoining the west side of the building. In 1920 the school was expanded to include a one-teacher high school, which was conducted in the second story of the lodge building then owned by the church group who used the ground floor for re ligious services. Eventually in the growth of the high school program, accommodations were made In the grade school building, and later a tine new building was constructed with space to maintain a standard three-teacher high school with some 80 pupils. In connection win this building, the district erected a large gymnasium with standard floor and bleacher spsce. This equipment was all turned over to the grade school system a few years ago when the high school group joined with the Roseburg high school. The school system now includes the two sets of buildings with ap proximately eight acres of ground for recreational purposes. Parts of the grounds are shsded by large trees, which were set out as very small trees by the ladies of the valley in the early days shortly after the -school property was ac quired.
