An organization has been incor-
porated at Louisville called the IAN
ti-tuberculosis league" some of the
best citizens of Louisville being
members. Its object is to fight the
"white plague" something the neces-
sity of which is being rapidly recog-
nized all over the world. The first
thing such societies or organiza-
lions do is to inaugurate cam
paign of education, teaching the
people the causes of the disease and
its spread, and the proper steps TO
take in incipient cases. Ultimately 1t
hopes to found hospital in Ken

ject is a worthy one. IL the people

The most essential thing to do is to

THE SCHOOLS OF KENTUCKY.

State papers are discussing the
school question. which Is good sign.
The best of them seem to agree with
Gov. Beckham, VINO saws we need
"fewer schools. and better schools"
Glenn's Graphic says of TIE recent
meeting at Frankfort, that THE men
who met to devise ways ami means
for the improvement of the public
schools know as little about the actu-
al needs and workings of the public
school system as IIottentot belle
does of the Paris millinery styles"
The Greensboro Inquirer agrees,
and seems to favor a plan suggested
in part BY Supt. C. NJ Leib, of the
Paducah schools. and already being
put into effect as rapidly as possible
here. Says the Inquirer
"The schools have been tinkered
with by educational politicians until
they are nearly ruined. The standard
of qualification on the part OF teach
ers has been raised to some extent,
but by the extension of the school
term without providing for an in
crease of pay, the efficiency of the
body of teachers has been lowered.
A school term of three months with
a good, well-paid teacher, is better
than one of six months with the sort
of teacher who will work for poor
pay.
"The remedy for the present weak
ness of the schools not In extension
OF the school term. The state should
provide district normal schools. and
every teacher should be required TO
attend These schools should devote
themselves to teaching teachers how
TO teach and not TO CLOSING over their
requirements until they can pass an
examination and secure a certificate,
The state should then require every
district to levy tax TO supplement
the state fund, not leaving II optional
with the district. but compelling the
levying and collecting of the tax. The
standard of requirements of teachers
should be raised and the placing OF
teachers In schools should be graded
according TO their qualifications and
experience, or, better still, a regular
salary should be paid to teachers on
the same basis. There is no reason
that an excellent teacher, because he
is modest or has no pull, should be
forced to teach In small, unremu
neratiye school, while his neighbor
not nearly so well qualified, but pos
sessing more brass or stronger pull
shall teach an adjoining school FOL

machine is putting in its candidates
everywhere, and 1t is predicted that
Blackburn will be so badly defeated
before the next legislature meets
that he will not allow the use of his

of the results of machines such as
Blackburn has for many years help

trouble now is that the machine is
