COUNTY HOARD PI~OCEimiNGS 17

'l~o the Conr1ty Bour!l i>C Portage County: The Stat'e Highway Commission at its meeting held lllay H, 1924,

pursua1it to a rmblic hearing held in the court house in SteYens Point on Ma.y 2, 1024, after due 110tice to the localities concemcrl of the proposal', took action to change the state trunk highway system in Portage county, by removing from said system certain roads and substituting others in lieu thereof, as hcreinaUer described.

'l'he portion of State Trunk Highway No .. 161 so removed is described as follows: ·

"Beginning at a point in the State 'J:nmk Highway on the north line of section 5, town 23, range 10 east, at or near the uorth quarter section corner of said section 5, thence west along the section line to a point at or near the north quarter sc<:tion corner of section 6, said town and range, ;:wd. southwesterly a<:ross the said section 6 to a point at or near the west quarter section corner thereof."

The 1wrtinn of Stnte 'l'nmk Highway No. 18 removed ft·om the state trunk highway system is described as follows:

, "Beginning in the State Trunk Highway in Amherst Junction -in section 17, town 23, range 10 east, thence northwesterll' along the north side of the right of way of the llfinneat1olis, St. Panl and Sault Ste. Marie· Railwlll7 com11any, through sections 17, 18 and 7 of town 23, range 10 east, and sections 12, 1 and 2, town 23, range 9 east, to the cast and west quat'l:er section line of said section 2 at a point near the <:enter of said section 2." ·

'l'he new route of State Trunk Highway No. 18 added to the system iu lien of the portion so removed, is as follows: ·

"Beginning in the State 'l'runk Highway in Amherst .Tnnction at the 11oint of cliscontinnance in section 17, town 23, range 10 east, thence iu a northerly direction through sections 17 and 8 and into section 5 to a point opvosite the bridge o,ver the \Vanpaca river in said

. section 5, thence northwesterly along the laid out road to a point on the· cast anll west quarter section line through said section 5 and 6

westerly throngh section G of said town and range and continuing westerly through sections 1 aml 2 of town 23, range 9 east to the point of Lliscontiunance near the ccntet· of sa'id section 2."

'.rhe connection for State 'l'runk Highway No. 161 througl! Nelsonville is described as follows:

"Beginning at a point ou the nort11 line of section 5, town 2..~. range 10 east, near the north quarter section corner of said section 5, thence southeasterly along the laid out road to the village of Nelsonville, thence ;;outhwesterly across the \Vaupaca river to a connection with the State Trunk Highway already laid out 'from Amherst through Amherst Junction to the point .near the center or sec--tion 2 of town 23, range {) east." ·

Since the foregoing changes more than five miles of the state trunk highway system, the action of the State Highway Commission must be referred to the county board of Portage county in which such changes are situated, and approved, before such <:hanges can become effective.

Your honorable boLly ·is therefore requested to act iu the matter at the first convenient opportunity and cause a report of your action to be made to the State Highway Commission as 'soon as lli'acticable thereafter.

Yours very respectfully, 'YISCONSIN HIGHWAY COMMISSION.

Mr. Chairman and Gentlemen :-I hereby heg; lea,·e to submit my fourth annual report of the work done in the interest ol' Portage county schools for last year. There were 153 teachers in Portage connty during 1023-24 teaching in 125 builclings. 1.'here was n tot·11l of 117 rural school buildings where 110 teachers were employed. High schools are maintained at Alm·oncl, Amherst antl Bancroft Cof1. 1. First class grncled schools are ri1aintained at Hosholt and .Junction City, nnrl second clt1ss graded schools at Amherst .Jnnction and Nelsonville. Ten teachers taught in high schools, seven in grades l.>elow high school, and seventeen in graded schools. .Forty-Jive ver cent of the teacher!'l in the schools of Portnge county are serving their second term or more in the same school. Forty-three per ceut of the rnn11 teachers and 50 per cent of the other teachers in the county are employed in the same school. '!'his is the greatest number of: teacher::: in the history of the county who are employed in the same position. '!'his is a distinct advantage to the district where the teacher is n successful teacher.

Cnster again mnintained a one room rural school, Plover a tworoom ·rural sehool, aml "'hit:ing employed two teachers; Almond 7 transports to Almond. A '·practice" school for prospective tenchcrs in the rnral department of Stevens Point Normal was conclucteli in Hnll 4, and Stockton i'i is fortunate in having the demonstrnt.ion school, where rnra I stmlents spend n week of observation nnrl t.eac!1ing;.

No new builrlings were erecterl last yenr. Amlu;rst complete•l its new High school hnilding: A model rural school was erected on the

. Normal c:ampus, where an excellent teacher who is a graclua te nf I: he suvervising teachers' course ·at the Stevens Point Normal, and 11as hnd snccessfnl teaching experience in rurnl, state graded schools, and as a o;upervising tenciler, is employed. Students of tire rum! crmrlic take their observntion and J)rnctice teaching in this rnml school under the S1111ervision of this rural teacher.

Tenchers' examinations were conducted as usual. Diploma exnrninntions for rural pupils were conducted at Rosholt. Bancroft, Alnron<l, Arnherst, Junction City, Kellner nnrl Stevens Point. Graded sclrool examinntions were held at Nel~onville.' BaneroU.. Hosiiolt. . AmlH.~r~l·. .Junction and Junction City. · · ·

Diplomas were grunted to 1DO pupils from nun! ;:chools anti -ll JIU[)i!S from graded schools. Forty-three pupils fnilcd to pass. l~ailnres were largely clue to poot· attendance where pnpils fnile<l to enter nt the very beginning of the year. A marked impro\'ement in l·he work of the eighth grade pupils is noticeable. This is due to sc,Yern l rea,:;ons, the following being largely responsible: (a) SeYeHth grnrle pnpils are 11ol: nllowed to attempt seventh nncl eiglrth 1>!-·acle work in the se\'enth yenr. "'llile in the :>e,·enth r;mde they wriw fiual exnminntions in two subjects, which gives them more time to flevote to the remaining subjects of the year. (h) Short tests covering the work for six weeks or two months are prepared in thi;; office and given to ei;;IItii grntle PUl)ils. (c) Supervising teachers carefully observe the work O"f these Pl!lli Is 111111 giYe the teuchers assistance in presenting; rr.•mc<linl men~HrPS

In. conclusion pennit me to say we have found the people of Portage county int.erestetl in the \\'elfare of the schools and they llilve done much this la:;t year to make needetl improven1ents and purchase snpplitos and erJtlipment. By coot•eration and mutual helpfulness on the part of 11urents, school IJrmnl memilcrs, teachers ami members of this Mlicc we hope to increase the efficiency of the Portage county schools.
