SCHOOL NOTES.

Missouri employs lG, ,C0o public school
teachers, cnrolls 10000 children in
the public schools and pays the teach
crs 50, 200, 900. Sixty five per cent
of the teachers are in the rural schools.
They instruct liity.ninc per cent OF the
children and receive forty per cent Of
the pay.
There are 2j2 Catholic schools in
Missouri, employing 1860 teachers and
enrolling SO, 23G pupils. OF these, 81
are academies ami colleges, employ
ing j1i teachers and enrolling 450i
pupils This leaves 1919 parochial
schools employing 74G teachers and
enrolling 3l,732 pupils.
There were in round numbers Sj0,-
600 spent for rural school libraries
last year. This is n substantial in
crease and indicates tha: the schools
are in excellent hands. This is about
50 per district and ten cents per child
enrolled. About one half of the dis.
tricts failed to purchase. When they
are interested, the amount spent each
year will be 500, 900, or about $40
per district.
The State Teachers Association
unanimously endorsed county super.
vision of rural schools and the Rubey
constitutional amendment, which pro-
poses to levy cents state tax, to be
distributed TO the districts as other
school moneys are distributed, for the
purpose of supplying text books for
free use in all public schools.
Hundreds Of rural teachers arc pre-
pairing Somcthin. for Missouri's cdu-
cational exhibit ut the Worlds Fair.
The best display will be that which
represents the entire work of an in

fortunate in having so many who are
willing to supply him with the best.
Again the library fraud is opcrat-
ing, this time in the "kingdom Of
Callaway.n When will school direc-
tors learn TO avoid the smooth ton
gucd stranger and put confidence in
their local teachcrsP Several school
districts in Galloway County have had
their warrants for $50 cashcd at the
banks and have nothing to show for it.
Patrons should see to it that directors
who are so easily dupcd be held per.
sonally responsible.
From statements made by the Coun-
ty ommissioncrs OF the State, il is
shown that there has been great Cd
ucational awakening along the lines
of better school buildings, better sal
aries and longer tenure of position for
teachers. While more attention is
given 10 subjects that lead directly to
better home making and better social
and moral relations it is evident that
the schools teach reading, spelling
and arithmetic better than ever.
