School Notes From Superin-
tendenf CarriHgt0n.

Missouri employs $4,000 public
school teachers. enrolls 720, 600
children in the public schools and
pays these teachers $4,000
Sixty-fve per cent of the teachers
are in the rural schools, They in
struct fifty nine per cent Of the
children and receive forty per cent
of the pay.
There are 252 Catholic schools
in Missouri, employing 1,2G0 teach
ers and enrolling 1926 pupils. OF
these, So arc academies and colleg
es, employing 514 teachers and en-
rolling 1901 pupils. This leaves
199 parochial schools employing
TAG teachers and enrolling 3l,732
pupils.
There were in round numbers
$4,000 spent for rural school libra
ries last year. This is substantial
increase and indicates that the
schools are in excellent hands.
This is about SIS per district and
ten cents per child enrolled. About
one half of the districts failed to
purchase. When they are interest
ed, the amount spent each year will
be $1O0,G00, or about $40 per
district.
The State Teachers Assocsation
unanimously endorsed county SIT
pervIsion of rural schools and the
Rubey Constitutioal Amendment,
which proposes to levy 5 cents
state tax to be distributed to the
districts as other school moneys are
distributed for the purpose of sup
plying text books for free use in all
public schools.
Hundreds of rural teachers are
preparing something for Missouri's
educational exhibit at the Worlds
Fair. The best display will be that
which represents the entire work of
an individual school. Supt. Buch-
anan is fortunate in having so many
who are willing to supply him with
the best.
Aguin the library fraud is opera

it is shown that there has been Il
great educational awakening along
th, lines Of better school buildings,
better salaries and longer tenure OF
position for teachers. While more
attention is given to subjects that
lead directly to better home-making
and better social and moral rela-
tions, it is evident that the schools
teach reading, spelling and arithme-
tic better than ever before.
