AUDRAM's SCHOOLS.
County Superintendent Shobe
Makes Suggestions.

The 60th annual report of Mis-.
souri, schools was issued recently
Audrain County is shown to have
the following white pupils: male
1862; female, 1900; total, $3.50
There are 300 male negro chill
dren and 30S female, in all, Cos.
The grand total is $500.
The number of pupils from
rural graduating last year was
SO; 20 male and sc female. The
number of graduates now in high
schools is 20; 8 male and 10
female.
Mcmillan High School of Mex
leo is one of the lis schools in the
State classed among the first
with four year courses.
In the report above referred
to County Superintendent of
schools, j. l.. ShObe submits the
following plan for the betterment
of the schools of Audrain.
l. Improvement of the teach
ing force:
GAY By organizing the teach
ers Of the county into a working
unit, that each may profit by the
best thoughts and plans of the
others. To accomplish this we are
having besides the teachers ,
meetings provided by law, regu-
lar monthly teachers meetings
in different parts of the county.
(b) By encouraging teachers
to better qualify themselves for
the work by attending summer
schools, reading good books, such
as the Reading Circle Books,
Helps, and so forth.
2. To spiritualize the country
schools through environment:
(a) By making the school
houses and grounds more COM
Portable and attractive.
(b) By enriching and follow
ing the Course of Study.
(c) BY supplying more good
reading matter or increasing the
Libraries.
3. To promote more regular
attendance and interest.
(a) By attendance certifi-
Gates.
(b) By entrance certificates
and diplomas for rural graduates
To summarize, we are endeav-
Cring to organize and direct all
the educational forces; to create
and enthusiasm in school work
that will reach each teacher
pupil and parent; to stimulate
the teacher to loftier motives,
help them to select taa best pro,
frSSi ma books and jou mails; II
inspire each pupil, by blazing be,
Core ii NJ higher ideals, that Il,
Lay ctGde to enter a higr S"ilH }
or college; to interest the parents
that they may assist and en-
courage their children to OBJ.
tain a higher education.
We have already seen some
marked results in regard to i'm
proving the school property, an:
increased interest of the chill
dren's efforts to complete the
Course of Study. AS to the results
of the other plans, time only vii
tell.

would should he drop into the Me
tropolitan Opera House and find him
self hearing Wagnerian opera from a
seat in the midst of seasoned Ger.
man opera-goers. He hears a Ian.
guage that is new to him. The man
at his right can tell more about the
first baseman's peculiaritieS than he
could tell about the manners of his
own wife. The man at his left has
trouble remembering the size collar
he wears. but he can name every
man in every club of both the major
leagues, tell the age of each, give the
complete table of batting records off
hand, and recite, item by item, every
feature of every game played on the
home grounds during the last five
years, That is why baseball is our
national game. We love the game
rot because we are Chicagonans and
the Chicago nine wins, nor because
we are Pittsburgers and the Pittsburg
nine is winning. but because We are
educated in baseball and like to see
good game played by the best men
in their field that can be found in the

The requirements are so stringent

CONFETTI NOT THE WEAPON.

Ii has been suggested that wave

The Commoner says:
The American people can not fight
the great trust system with confetti.
Real representatives of the people
fight this system under great disaa-
vantages and they must make every
blow couns This does not mean that
any element of personal hatred shall
enter the battle. One may look ten

OF the speaker. his marked ability. the
great endurance he displays for one
of his age, his genial personal cnar-
