A School Scrap

The trouble over the contract of Miss Margaret Rea as teacher in school
district, No. 1, in Fredonia township is creating lots of bad blood between
residents of the township. It seems that Miss Rea was hired by W.L. Freeman,
the old director, just previous to his removal to Minnesota, for a six
months term, but that the president of the board did not sign the contract
as required by law. After the election of W.S. Darville, as director he
hired another teacher for the school and an injunction was gotten out to
prevent Miss Rea from teaching; but it appears that she paid no attention to
the injunction, but continued to teach the school under her contract with
Mr. Freeman.

The signing of teachers' contracts by the president of the board is not
closely observed in many townships it being considered sufficient to have
the sub-district directors' signature and this case will assume something of
the nature of a test case. On account of the non-observance of the
injunction, a suit was necessary to test its validity and it was heard by
Judge Gaynor Saturday night.
