In March, 1903, an excellent permits

union of school districts in California.
The way to organize for these union
district schools is to write to the State
superintendent of Public Instruction at
Sacramento for a copy of this law and
to obtain his suggestions, secure, il
possible, the personal aid of others who
are familiar with the subject, agitate
the matter increasingly and in due

When God had created Adam he
saw that what man desired more than
anything else was a helpmate. He
therefore created woman for man
namely, Eve. He didn't take part of
mans brain to create her. If such
would have been the case woman would
have been superior to man. God didn't
want that. Neither did he take a part
of mans feet to create her, for if such
would have been the case man would
have despised woman. God didn't de-
sire that. But we find that God took
from man a rib and from it created
woman. We all know that the ribs are
located close to the heart. and ne did
that so that man should love woman.

ifornia. This IS to come through the
establishment OF what rs sometimes
called the centralized school. Its nu-
merous benefits are to be secured by
disorganizing several adjoining school
DISTRICTS. consolidating them into a
union district graded school and daily
transporting all of the children by
hired carriages TO and from their
homes.
There are two distinct purposes in
view for this plan. One of these is for
a financial and the other for an educa-
tional reason. Taking up first the edu-
cational feature as the most important
one to be considered. it may be seen that
that the plan contemplates the organ
ization Of strong union school to be
held in three or four room schooihouse

with modern ideas Of ventilation, sani-
tation. light and heat The old school
buildings can be sold or kept for neigh

VIII be wanted, but superior ones will
be required and their services will be
more permanent. Each teacher viii
teach two or three grades only, with
far better results than when caring for
eight or nine grades. OF course. one Of
the teachers will be the supervising
principal. In such a school special
studies of music drawing and nature
work can often be thoroughly taught.
There viii be more professional enthu-
siasm among the teachers, with the sure
result that school becomes much more
interesting to the older boys and girls,
and they will no longer quit it at an
early age. Longer terms viii be held.

six miles distant, with transportation
provided brings higher value to a
neighborhood than a weak district
school half a mile away.
The fiippant remark of city residents
is occasionally heard to the effect that
they have no interest in what the coun-
try schools are doing. No greater mis-
take can be made, especially if the in
different man is a taxpayer At least
half of the best blood of the cities comes
from the strong, resolute manhood of
the country. The cities have deep,
vital concern in all that relates to the
upbuilding and advancement of rural
educational interests.
1t is now time to speak of the birth
of this new idea. Long ago it passed
the age when it might be deemed a
bantling. In 1859 the State of Mas
sachusetts enacted a law which al
lowed the local school committees to
expend money 'in their discretion. in
providing for the conveyance of pu-
pills to and from the public schools" "
The result has been that hundreds of
small, outlying schools in that State
have been closed and more than 1000
scholars are now daily carried at pub
lie expense to and from centralized
schools. Eighteen other States have
passed laws providing for the consoli-
dation of country schools, these
eighteen containing nearly half the
population of the United States. The
is strongly in favor of Capitalization.

children from a central point, by the
carriage passing through the main
road only, or by the carriage calling at
all the homes in the neighborhood. The
third course is the most convenient
and proves most successful of all. Cow
cred carriages are provided; equal care
with the selection of teachers is be-
slowed in engaging drivers; routes are
let to the lowest approved bidder who
is under bonds and the conveyance is
made on schedule time. Hardness at
school consequently disappears from
the list of school annoyances.
What objections are urged against
the centralized school? A great many.
but it is noticeable that they are al
ways made before such a school opens
and rarely afterward. 1t is sometimes
alleged by patrons in opposition that
walking to school is good exercise for
the children: that four or five miles
distance is too far to send the little
folks; that associations in the carriage
and at intermission at school are not
always favorable: that property will
depreciate, and, finally. that the pro-
ject is impractieable. Replies are made
that farm children seldom suffer for
want of exercise; that a few miles dis
tance cannot be hurtful when a child
is carried drivers and teachers are re-
quired to be watchful in all these ar
rangements; and that the experience
in many States proves the almost un-
qualified success of the plan The OBJ
lection of depreciation of real estate Is
not sustained as the facts are other
wise. A school house confers no value
of itself, and a superior graded school
The San Francisco call., 1904-12-25
THE ADVANTAGES Of THE CENTRALIZED SCHOOL

More public interest is manifested in
the larger school and better men are
elected trustees. Closer ties will pre-
vail in the community. Courses of lee
lures and entertainments can be sus-
tained. In short, the centralized school
can be made the intellectual and social
center of the whole territory that it
dren no longer receive the smaller bene-
fits Of the isolated school, but obtain all
that belongs TO the thoroughly organ
lied, well disciplined and amply equip
ped town school The advantages of
country life and town life are in this
manner combined
Besides these signal educational inn
provements, the centralized school fur
nishes its superior advanta ges, includ-
ing transportation charges, for less
outlay than is required by the employ
ment Of larger number of teachers in
four, five or more districts and the in
evitable annual repairs on all the sepa-
rate school buildings. This assertion

the economic view merits most careful
attention.
1t will be readily seen that the strik-
ing features of this radical change Is
the transportation of the children. The
school no longer goes to the children
the children go to the school. 1t cam
not be called a twentieth century idea
successfully adopted for many years.
1t Is in line with that other popular
modern innovation-rural mail delivery.
How is the transportation managed? ?
In one of three ways. BY taking the

% HERE are tremendous posi-
bilities for good in the evolu-
ton OF the country schools Of
California. For many years
past there has been but
little change in their general
condition. II is true that the quaiirica
tions required Of the teachers are
higher than formerly. that there is
closer sympathy and cooperation in
the teaching profession and that in
some parts Of the State more liberal
views in the community have brought
ampler equipment and better school
houses.
Nevertheless adjustment TO modern
conditions has not been made. for the
average school district remains as it
was nearly a generation ago. The old
and still prevailing thought was and IS
that The schoolhouse must be near the
scholar on the ranch. hence the crea-
ton and maintenance OF numerous
school districts with an average at
tendance IF fifteen or twenty scholars
or less. Whether these are graded or
ungraded schools. they suffer by rea-
son Of their isolation, their inferior
equipment and particularly because in
50 many cases The available funds win
only justify short terms of school
and the engagement Of ordinary or
inexperienced teachers. Small schools
are also at a disadvantage because they
always lack the vitalizing force which
comes through the competition of many

with those Of the average mold.
