Old Lodi Defends School Funding Against Dillenger Criticism
W E Jeffers writes to The Daily Messenger defending Lodi Township schools. He notes fourteen to fifteen teaching staff, eight month terms funded at about 37 dollars monthly, and about four hundred dollars owed to teachers slated for August 20 1907. He explains Lodi has eleven sub districts and thirteen schools, with funds insufficient to raise monthly pay or extend terms, and accuses Mr Dillenger of misrepresenting the township.
