VIRGINIA AND HEB CHILDREN.

In variety and richness OF material
resources, Virginia holds the brst
rank among the American States. Bot
a STATES wealth lies not In material
things bat in men, aud Virginis's rich
eat asset is not her mines and forests,
her corn and cattle, bat her great army
of children. Ia the boys and girls OF
today are the seeds of the manhood and
the womanhood that are TO constitute
the strength of the state In the next
generation.
In recognition of this vital fact Vir.
ginia forty years ago established sys-
tem of public schools. 1t Is the busi.
ness of state education to make good
citizens and capable, efficient trust.
worthy workers. For this the state
schools exist and this is their only res'
SON of being. There is no other justifi.
catioa of taxing one man to school
another mans child. 81 look" says
Mr. Jefferson, "to the diffusion OF light
and education as the resource most to
be relied on for ameliorating the con-
ditiop, promoting the virtue, and ad-
yanciug the happiness OF men. Edu.
cate and iuform the whole mass OF the
people. No other sure foundation can
bs devised for the preservation OF Tree.
dom aud happiness"
Education means more than learning
the three BIS. To give the child these
is only to give him certain tools that
he may use In gaining 80 education.
These tools are of value only as
they open up the realms of nature
aad humanity. Through the agency
of good books they give access to the
accumulated experience of the race BY
which the life of the individual is en-
ricbed.
"It 1t is the duty of the state to see
that its citizens know how to read, 1t is
no less Its duty to ace that they are
trained to do the right kind of reading;
otherwise the ability to read may be
harmful rather than beneficial, both to
the individual aud TO the state;" for
bad books stand second to bar.rooms
only as a source OF vice aud crime. If
the state will only save the boys, the
boys will save the state. The reading
habit and the taste for good books can
never be developed without access to
books of the right sort, and this access
it is the business of the state to provide.
At its last session the general as.
sembly of Virginia made a somewhat
tentative appropriation for sending out
from the state library small travelling
libraries that the country people might
get some share In the benefit of that
institution. Results have 30 amply
shown the wisdom of the experiment
that there can no longer be eny qaes
ton about the wisdom of increasing the
appropriation. The movement has
found most hospitable reception with
me couotry people and no enlarged ap-
uf public funds is likely to
be received with greater favor than one
for sending out good books to every
ueighhorhood of the state. Aud no sp.
will do more 10 the way OF
securing good and lasting returns for the
millions We are investing in public
school9. Surely mis- is one appropriation
for which every legislator may we'll
afford to be s'rong. [-Fsuquier Demo-
