er, and to accept school books for
their children from any private fund
would never be considered for mo-
ment; but the states of the South,
those which exact payment for
school books (and in which white il e
literacy predominates) must surely
be able to devise means for provid~
ing the necessary books. The adop-
ton of this rule would doubtless de-
prive many school officials and num-
bers of presidents of boards of edu-
cation of snug little sums of money,
but it would lower the rate of illit-
eracy among the white children of
these states.
We have long, expensive legisla-
ture sessions in all our Southern
States; many questions are wrangled
and argued over, but it is time this
important matter Of educating our
coming men and women was set
tied.
We are fast building a chain of
elaborate school buildings, develop
ing curriculums which provide in
many branches that little knowledge
which is so dangerous a thing and
we are turning out hundreds of Wis
ionary, impracticable youths and
maidens whose speech is anything
but perfect English.
We are, in the oSuth, striving for
that academic" finish in so many
cases. which seems to unfit the re-
cipient for practical living or the

Perhaps if we have fewer pro-
fessors, less "special'~ work, less
architectural effort, less of the
higher" and more of the practical
education, we would find the devel-
opment of the South along every line
would be on par with that of the
northern and western section

OUR PUBLIC SCHOOLS AND THE
SOUTH'S WHITE ILLITERACY.

LIVERY section of a country's
III progress is measured by the
IL !. percentage of educated peo-
III pie enrolled from year to
year.
The subject of public school edu-
cation is always an important one to
the tax payer, and there are few
citizens who are not progressive
enough to gladly give their pro-rata
for the development of the public
schools of their section.
The census. which has recently
been completed, did not deal specif-
ically with the enlightenment nor
learning of each community, but the
figures giving the foreign born are
interesting to note.
Statistics of the public schools
show, in northern states, that the
percentage of foreign born children
or children of foreign parentage form
the largest part of the beneficiaries
of the public school bounty.
In the south it is a marvel to
many to note the very large number
of negro children who attend the
public school during the entire ses-
sion.
1t is safe to assume, from the sta
tistics published officially, that the
decrease in illiteracy among the
negroes Of the south is more rapid
than that among the white children
of the same section.
There are many answers to this
argument, and it will be necessary
to digreSS somewhat to make some
points clear.
recent investigation in Balti-
more, Md, showed a discrepancy of
some thousands of dollars in the ZAP
propriations" for public school prop
erty improvements and the actual
amount paid.
=, Baltimore, like all nothern cities,
furnishes free books to the children
of her public schools. This disposes
of the opportunity for graft in
the public schools in so far as the
children are concerned, but the trail
of the CRATER led to the "discrep-
ancy' between the appropriation and
the actual amount for the needed
improvements
This brings us to the South.
The gigantic possibilities of graft

books, which seem to be changed as
often as the concern furnishing the
books feels the need of ready money,
is the real true reason for the great
prepOnderance of white illiteracy in
the South.
A family in a small town in Geor-
gia had six children of school age,
ranging from girl in the high
school, to two younger ones in the
first grades: the father was incapaci-
tated for work and the burden fell
on the mother.
When the girl entered the high
school her books cost $40; those
needed for the other children footed
$40. Besides this there were Eek
tras" and 'sincidentals" which aver
aged over a dollar every two weeks
Will it surprise any one if this
woman takes her children from the
school before they graduate and
lets them enter the wage earners'
ranks?
And that brings this question
down to the final analysis, and we
find politics at the bottom of it,
There are three tremendous mu-
nicipal institutions which should be
absolutely free from the domination
of municipal politics.; they are, first,
the public schools; second, the police

placing the country doctor on the shelf.
1t is an easy matter today, with the
aid Of the rural telephone, to summon
physician from the city and have
him at the side of sick or injured in
less time than was formerly required
to ride to the village, get the doctor
and return with him. This does not
mean that the need for the doctor has
in any material way lessened. but sim
ply signalizes the passing of that good
old character who has been SO much
