school in a neighboring township for two years and had become
'so thoroughly converted to the new plan that they voted to bond
the township for a long term oi years to erect a $6,000 modern
-'and up—to-date school building. This building stands in the center
of the township eleven miles from one railroad and six miles
from another. The building contains six schoolrooms, with two
additional rooms. one of which might be uséd for a library room .
and the other for a reception room. It is heated by steam and has
a basement under the entire building, part of which might be
utilized for laboratories. gymnasium, etc. To this building are
brought all the children of the entire township. The enrolment
the first year was 180, an increase of thirty over the last year in
the scattered schools. Eight wagons are employed in transporting
the children to the central building. The school grounds com— ,
prise about three acres, much of which is now used for gardening
and elementary agriculture.

schools has increased from 2510, in 1904, to 4.18 in 1908. while the
number of children transported has increased from 5.356. in 1904.,
‘to 16,034, in 1908. The cost per day at the present time, April.
. 1908, for transportation of pupils in Indiana is $1,749.24. while I
the cost per wagon per day is $1.87. Such has been the progress
‘of the consolidated system ‘in Indiana in the last four years and
i even greater progress will be made in the immediate future owing ,
to the large ntunbcr of small, one—teacher schools which still exist ’
in the state and the recent enactment of a law by the last legis—
lature which went into effect .\pril 10. 1907. At the present
time there are 387 scluols in the state with an attendance of fewer
[than twelve pupils, and 699 schools with an attendance of fewer
than fifteen pupils. . '
The legislature of 1907 enacted a law making compulsory
__ the abandonment‘of all schools in which the average daily attend—
vance is twelve or fewer. and gives the trustees the authority to
!abandon all schools where the attendance is fifteen or fewer:
provided. the conditions as to roads, streams and bridges permit
Of such discontinuance. The law provides further that
it shall be the duty of the township trustee to provide for the education
of such pupils as oarc affected by such or any former discontinuance in
other schools. and they shall provide and maintain means of transporta-
tion for all such pupils as live at a greater distance than two miles, and
' for all pupils between the ages of six ((3) and twelve (12:) that live less
than two miles and more than one mile from the schools to which they
may be transferred as a result of such discontinuance. Such trausporta- ‘
‘ tion shall be in comfortable and safe conveyances. The drivers of such
conveyances shall furnish the teams therefor and shall use every care for
the safctv of the children under their charge. and shall maintain discipline
in such convevanccs. Restrictions as to the use of public highways shall
not apply to “such conveyances. The expenses incidcnt to carrying into
letifcct the provisions of this act shall be paid from the public school funds.
