ARTS-7b NAMED GAP · SETTLER NAMED

Who taught art to Walkerton's schoolchildren, decade by decade, is not in any record this section could reach, and the item prints the gap rather than a guess. The banked schools record carries the Glenn system's courses at institutional strength, and this section's reads — the county histories' school passages (which name principals and grade teachers of 1880: Prof. J. A. Jones, Mrs. C. M. Poffenberger, Miss A. Millard) — reach classroom names only for the graded school's first generation. The art-teacher line lives where such lines live: in the John Glenn yearbooks' faculty pages, year by year, a source that exists in runs at the school and the library but stands in no online form this seat could open. The gap is printed with its settler: the Glenn yearbook run, read for faculty pages, would carry the succession whole in an afternoon's work by whoever holds the volumes.

Principal sources: Chapman (1880), Lincoln Township schools passage (the 1880 faculty names); the negative run of this section for the modern succession.
