Esti- mated on the most conservative )ba- sis, Bismarck should have at this moment five more class rooms for the accommodation of its school children. For the lack of these rooms school children are not receiving the very -best service that is possible under Bismarck’s modern, educational sys- tem, and Bismarck taxpayers are pay- ing good salaries to. capable instruc- tors whose full capabilities cannot. be utilized. On the one. hand the school children are being “short-changed” to a certain ‘extent, while on the other tho taxpayer is not receiving the full , Worth of his tax dollar: In the Will school one of the city’s ablest, educators is teaching a com- paratively small class ‘because the only class-room available is a small chamber. formerly used for office pur- poses.

A decrease of enrollment in the kindergarten after school start- ted, September 2, made it possible to transfer the kindergarten helper from the kindergarten to this room, thus giving the teacher relief until a bet- ter condition can be provided later. It may become necessary to remove the kindergarten to the community room of the Wachter school building. Five dozen additional desks have been purchased to meet this unexpected in- crease, but it is difficult to find space where they may be placed. At least 35. may be expected to graduate from the eighth grade in January and these will enter the>high school, swelling the enrollment to nearly 300. The phenomenal growth seems to be dye to two causes. 1. A large number of new families have moved into the city to.make Bismarck their future home. 2. A large number of children of high school age from out of ‘the city are availing themselves of the superior advantages offered in the Bismarck high school.

It has been helpful in that very little time was Most because of wet weather and also for the reason that the small crops resulting from the drouth released for highway work many men who other- wise would have been engaged in har- i In 1918 during the harvest season it was necessary to abandon work on several projects altogether. On the other hand it has been increas- ingly difficult to work the hard, sun- baked earth, and poorer progress has been made than there would have been with an occasional rain to soak up the soil. The year has as a whole been sa factory, however, and the highway commission is _reasonably well satisfied with the results. Work is nearing completion on a number of the large projects carried over from last year, and a report on this work soon will be available. Practically every county in the state is co-operating with the commission in the construction of state or fed- eral aid highways, and there is fast rounting into ‘shape a network of trunk-line thoroughfares which will give every section of the state satis- factory service. A majority of these highways are dirt roads scientifically built which will form the roadbed for future improvement to consist of gravel surfacing or permanent pave- ments.
