Bro. Absten states that they had
an average attendance of 12 students
In their high school last year. Thus
the cost per scholar on that basis
was $1(M.
I suppose Bro. Absten will say that
part of the principal's salary should
be dedu-.-ted for supervision. But I
Imagine that with 12 high school
recitations, while the average high
school teacher has but six the
Frankton principal has but slight
time for supervision. Supervision of
necessity Is very, very limited.
I frankly admit that you have an
excelleut principal nt Frankton. But
your people do not appreciate his
efforts by paying him $12. mt month
to try to do more than the work of
two men.
Before this controversy Is over I
think It will Is proved that the con
solidation Idea Is not ouly better for
the pupils and teachers, but also
cheaper for the taxpayer. I hoe
that we all can think this matter
over can-fully and see If we can co
operate In securing one of the Unt
school systems In the state.

Answers Mr. Absten
Editor News: Bro. Absteu's ex
ceptions to the plan for the consoli
dation of our schools for high school
work are interesting. I have not
time to write an extended article,
yet must offer a few thoughts for
Bro. A listen's consideration.
He says it is a physical Impossibil
ity for the high school children from
bis district to be transported to
Hood Klver. But he does not stale
why. The Frankton school building
Is but one and a half miles due west
from the Hood Klver high school. If
the roads are Impassible application
to the county court for relief should
ls made. I saw small grade children
as well as high school boys and girls
transported a greater distance In
Indlnna last winter, where they had
to throw down the fences and go
across fields on account of the nw
illfts. Vet the resident there can
not say too much In praise of their
consolidation of schools.
Brother Absten thinks I am wrong
In my statement last year that
Frankton's high school work cost.
them over 100 per student. I have
lost the figures given me n year ago,
