Brayton school will be discontinued next fall. Named for the woman who taught the first A C's In this city, standing In the heart of what at that time was called Madison village, built In the 'year 1857 at a cost ot it has woven around and about itself the traditions and memories which make it today one of the real hLstorlc landmarks. Brnvton has always been a progres sive school, and It was there that birth given to the idea which has developed into the Parent Teacher association. According to a report made by this school in 1863, it is evident the necessity for a closer bond between parents and school teachers was deemed not only advisable but necessary.

The following fragment, will show the strong feline on this subject even at that date: "Too Indifferent" "The school is pleasantly located and the building Is in good repair. Many parents, however, hare been too indifferent to the interets of the school, and have not exerted themselves to keep their children in school nor have they visited the school themselves. "A clerk employed In a store, or a that the work may be satisfactory, but. children, to have their mind. developed, heir characters molded, are entrusted for months to the care of pawns not even known to the parents." During the last few years It has been more and more difficult to enlist children for a school situated almost in the heart of the down town district, and it has therefore been deemed advisable to close the doors of Brayton and distribute its brood to the kindly cave of Lincoln, Dnty.

and Washington schools. Most probably, being young, the children being transferred arc conscious f'mly of a thrill of excitement at the thought ot attending another school: hut to those children, now grown up and transferred to the higher grades in the school of life, the parsing ot Brayton awakens old memories, brings back 1 he days of childhood and happiness, and they hear in fancy the tolling of the old school bell. The fact that many will mourn its departure, the fact that the dreams and memories about the old brick building unrfiv on offi ttnn itfi the that it v. ill remain fore; tor in the history and traditions of Madison, is the best tribute which can paid to the school which harbored men and women who number among Tt worthiest citizens of our city.

Guided Mrs. Norris, teacher of dramatics and auditorium supervisor, the various classes gradually assembled with clever' technique, a playlet of exceptional nerit. Not imlv was the idea for the whole performance concocted by the pupils, but the costumes worn, the music and stage setting were likewise of their creation. "The Magic Whistle," a whistle hidden by the fairy queen at the end was found by Tom and, when blown upon brought to his presence, the 'fairy: queen. herself.

She explained to him that. the. whistle had a magic power if blown by him, it would, reveal, bits of her or something of beauty, at ail times, but by no means was he to give this charmed object to any other being. Tom, quite thrilled, tried at once to test the. effects of.

the fairy's prophecy. hietr and the woodland fairies an swered in dance, he blew again and, wayside flowers were brought into life. Jack, Tom's pal, and Tom nrnufilv diSDlavs his new found treasure. After having seen several of the wonders which the blowing of the whistle call forth, Jack begs for permission to blow it just once." Tom, convinced the fairy could never know, permits Jack to fulfill his wish, jack blows and blows; nothing happens. Despondent and repentant the lads stand gazing hopelessly at the queer little object, when once again the fairy queen approaches them.

"You nave been. disobedient," says she, "and. the charm is broken."

The fact that Brai'ton school will be discontinued, will result in the transfer of those attending there to Lincoln, Doty, Washington schools, and Central Junior high school.

The school for crippled children will be removed to Longfellow school, and at this school another nutrition center is to be opened. Washington, Draper, Randall, and Longfellow schools will discontinue their junior high classes, seventh and eighth grades, dividing the attendance of those classes between Central and West junior high schools. This will end the. serious condition of congestion in many of the schools and will, at the same time put all schools throughout the city on a scale of equality, grading from kindergarten to sixth grades, it Is hoped that this change will ultimately result in the platoon system being adopted by all the larger schools. These changes in the school system, and the building and completion of the new high school have brought with them various changes in school jurisdiction.

V. G. Barnes will continue as principal of Central high school and will also be controlling principal of high school. He will be assisted at Central high school by Miss Zilla Wis wall for the junior and Leonard wachler for the senior high school. Ralph ChristofTcrson will be his assirt ant at West high school together with Miss Florence Dodge.

Alice Rood, present principal of Marquette school, will shift to Randall school next year, and Emily Parsons will take over Marquette together with Harvey school, of which she now if the principal. Delia eighth grade teacher of Washington school, will fill the position of principal Doty school, heretofore held by Mis' Wis wall.
