pleased with the almost instantaneous
relief afforded that We discarded the

we bad her completely well, and there

Rev. w. B. Beauchamp in an address
before a local association in TIdewater
Virginia. emphasized the Importance OF
such: associations in the educational
work Of the State. He said:
In the development OF better schools
In the historic Commonwealth OF Viz
gInla, the local association Of citizens for
school improvements must be a perma-
nent factor. The Macy educational cam
paign had its great value, but there must
be developed local and intelligent edn-
cat!onal organization to put Into active
reality the Ideals Of the leaders In this
great movement. These local help
leagues may have for their purpose %
the reinforcement OF county superln-
tendent and local teacher; az CONSOLE
da ton OF scl1ools go increase Of local
school tax;t(4) improvement OF school
houses and grounds, or any one OF these,
or all OF them, or something different;
but whatever the specific purpose, we
must have the organization Perhaps
the greatest fact to ho reported ct THIS
convention is the organization OF some
three hundred local leagues during the
current year In our State, We must get
the nelghborhood interested IN their
school, and willing to sacrifice tor ~,
or at least to give fair part OF their
time or talent or money to forward the
work OF the local school, There Is q
growing sentiment for better schools az
over our State, but that sentiment must
be intelligently organized In order to
be effective tor good. lsthlnk those VINO
are keeping In, touch with this new era
in educational affairs In Virginia VIII
see that the local citizens association
is a real NECESSITY at the present time.
There will be need OF much patient en-
deavor to accomplish this work. for
every, neighborllood has Its own peculiar
notions and prejudices These must be
met and overcome. There arc always
local leaders. These We must FIRST reach
and enlist in the movement We shall
not be able to do all that we would do
in a day, but the end in view is worthy
OF many days, and much toll ana real
sacrifice, Our worthy enthusiasm IN TINS
forward movement must be tempered
with genuine sanity, Why are these
local associations worthy Of our pest
efforts, and how shall we appeal TO the
citizens OF the different nelshborhoods.
T answer, 1rat, because OF the Ealue OF
the child and the claim Of the ch!aTen

ance and allowed to labor. Recently went
through some Of the great factories OF
st. Louis to Investigate the workings OF
this law. While the child labor law 10
enforced, I found many instances OF little
girls and boys of nine, ten and eleven
years of age at work. In each OF these
cases it was claimed that the child was
the only support OF a parent. Experience
has demonstrated that the majority OF
claims for exemption are not bona noe
and are the product Of parental aVhrlce
rather than necessity. However that
may be, believe # a paren Is So poor
that he must depend for support upon
the labor of an infant child he.is poor
enough for the State to support him as

destroy the child mentally, physically ana
morally as is the usual result when chill
dren are permitted 10 work in factories
AT such tender ages. II is far more m
variant that the child should be given
an education and be made useful clll-
