Jackson Township Schools

The schools in Jackson Township opened on Monday morning with a fair attendance 
in each school.  Although the enrollment was not as large as in former years 
many more pupils will commence their studies after the fall work on the farm is 
finished.  The township put the various buildings in first class condition for 
the opening by having them thoroughly cleaned and repaired.  New black-boards 
were installed in the schools, while the interior of the building were painted 
with alabastine.

The schools opened with the following instructors:  Menges Mills, Allen E. 
Jacobs; Thomasville, secondary, H. E. Eyster; primary, Miss Mabel E. Moul; 
Nashville secondary, Harry Hoke; primary, J. N. Falkenstine; Picking’s, Harry 
Lauer; Moul’s, Miss Edna Strack; Roth’s, Miss Ruth Jacobs; John Mummert’s, 
Clarence Myers; Henry Mummert’s, Norman Moul; Rearich’s, the Rev. George W. 
Welsh.
