WHAT OTHERS ARE DOING.
Figures Showing What other States and Territories are Doing In
 the Way of Libraries.

Arizona gives $50 a year to the school library of every district hav- ing one hundred children. Colorado gives one-tenth of mill school tax to its rural libraries. Illinois allows an amount not to exceed two mills, Indiana one-fourth to one-third of a mill Iowa one mill. Kentucky gives S10 to each district, if the people raise S10. Maryland gives S1o, if the com munity will raise S10. Massachusetts gives $15 to the district which gives $15. New Jersey appropriates $2O the first year and $10 each wear there after. The constitution of Michigan as does that of Minnesota, provides that the legislature maintain q library in every township. Libraries are sup ported in Kansas, Nebraska. New Hampshire, the Dakotas, Oregon Pennsylvania and Vermont. Wiscon- sin sets aside for district libraries ten cents for every child enrolled.@ In all twenty-nine states of the union are appropriating money every year foI the support of rural school libraries Nine southern states, Alabama, Ar kansas. Georgia, Louisiana, Mississip pi. South Carolina. Tennessee, West Virginia and Virginia, along with the western states, Arizona. Washington and Nevada, are doing nothing.

Education nnd Earning Capacity.

Mir D. A. Tompkins. of Charlotte, \. C., has recently published figures to show that at thirty-fve years old the earning capacity of a man with common school education and special training for his work is twelve and a half times greater than that of an iliterate. untrained man; that the earning capacity of man with high school education and training is twenty-five times greater than that of the illiterate and untrained man; that the earning capacity of man with college education and training is thirty-seven and half times great CT than that of the illiterate and un- trained man, and that the earning ca- paeity of man with university edu- cation and training is fifty times greater than that of the illiterate and untrained man. So that the value to the commonwealth of the man with university education and proper training for his business is fifty times greater than the value of the illit- crate and untrained man.

SOUTHERN EDUCATION
SCHOOL CONSOLIDATION.
Some of the Probabilities of the Con- sOIidation of the Public
 Schools of the South.

If the country schools were consoli- dated so as 10 make one school to ev- cry 20 square miles in each county, few children would need to walk more than two miles and none more than two and a half or three miles. There are 23 counties in Virginia in which on an average from two to three schools would be made into one; g counties in which from three to four schools would be made into one; 15 counties in which five to six schools would be made into one; one county in which from six to sev- en schools would be made into one; two counties in which from six to eight schools would be made into one, and one county in which ten schools would be made into one.
 The rate of consolidation in other S, uthern states would be as follows:
 North Carolina: Thirty-six counties in existence. It has paid out-ree widows and orphans, here, $91 oY oy GOO; and now offers special int ducements to new members. NVo initiation fee is charged, to joi !. and the rates of insurance. to nen- is very low. vo

\ Present Duty.

Our duty to the new time in the south is the duty of educating all the people. It is the task set by Jeffer- son for Virginia in 1779, only changed and made more urgent by the exten- sion of suffrage to another race. This is the real southern problem: How shall we educate and train the peo- pie? It is the problem of the whole country. in fact. How shall we edu- cate all the people for intelligent citizenship, for complete living, and the true service of their God and fel- lowmen?
