Mr.. Pages Interview.

Mr.. Thomas Nelson Page has given
The Dispatch a striking and st,m-
ulating interview on Southern education,
which We print elsewhere. Mr.. Page
spares no feelings and minces no words
In his description of our present capacity
for educating the children In sequestered
country districts. We realize our incf-
ficiencies. and have for the past foutr
years fought In season and soutseof asea-
son for the betterment Of those condi-
tons, and not without success n # =
Three years ago, we recall hearing d
prominent political leader who was speak
ing at an educational. meeting, argue viii,
great vigor that the war, reconstruction
the tariff and all the other burdens undo,
which the South had abored were solely
responsible for our educational condi-
I4tions. That day is gone, and today, with
out in any way minimizing the effect OF
the past the present generation has set
itself to work to build for the future with
the material. the spirit and the courage
that produced such giants in Virginia in
other days. Virginia needs mot that the
example Of .Massachusetts be held up for
her encoura gement.. e The hril!ing call for
better schools with all that 1t Implies
has gone tingIing to the farthest cor
ncr of the State. On every side we get
reports Of new consolidated and graded
schools replacing old one-room ungraded
ones.
When a man, be he politician professor
or philanthropist, gets up to speak to-day
on education, he needs no apology for his
subject, and no beating of bushes for Ills
audience. This spirit is militant agrees
s!ve and proselyting The new crusade
cates-and the political leaders who dis
cuss the signs Of the times will be found
on the side of the school teachers and
the people. As to Mr.. Pages suggestions:
First. and foremost. we need more school
taxes In order that We may pay our
! teachers commensurate!y with the work
they do and the ends We desire, and 10
secure for the State the best teachers
possible. No money ever spent brings
such sure and splendid returns. Next In
order follows good roads. in order that
the children may be transported to tha
gchools.
For methods and subjects Of educa-
ton We may well await future needs and
developments. We do not think the pub.
lie mind Is ripe for compulsory educa-
| uon, nor that 1t will adopt ouch policy
for many years, II at all Yirginians nre
very conservative, jealous OF Individual
rights ard slow to Interfere with parental
ianlnorlty. TO us the better way seems tc
be In continuing the campaign Tor ed,l-
eating the public 10 need Of education
