AT Recent Meeting Of Mothers

request OF some who heard 1t:

Now facts have been called "stub-

things do not appeal to the average
person, and the eye hurrfes over
them as quickly as possible.
The fact that thousands of young
children were employed in the fac

protest until Mrs. Browning wrote
her Cry OF the children" showing
how preferable were the lives of the
beasts CT the field compared to this
child life slavery, and reforms were
instituted at once. Tolstoy, b.

AN EXcELLEN PAPER

of hands. Now. If i even had the
power to tell you of the state of af-
fairs that exists in the school life OF
our children today, would be cen.
sured for besmirching the fair name
of our city; SO, before state the
facts, must tell you why they ex-
ist.
Fifteen years ago clarksburg
built a new school on the site of the
old Northwestern Academy. 1t was
thought to be noble building, per-
fectly adequate to the needs. All
AT. once for reasons only too obvious,
we began TO grow by leaps and
bounds, children seemed to be rising
mp out of the earth, and as If led by
some Pied Piper, they were heading
for the high school. The school
board grew desperate-called for
money, and more money. They built
new school houses in the suburbs
Iand additions, east and west, think
ling to stay the current. but still the
tide OF humanity kept pouring in,
They rented rooms over groceries
and billiard rooms, rented private
houses and hotels, churches and
Offices, they divided the large rooms
Of the high school by partitions,
and still the situation is just as de5-
Iperate today; the congestion just as
lunrelieHed as though no effort had
been made. In the last year 500
arritional children have been emu
lmerated until the list now numbers
1880. So insisting were the num-
bers of boys and girls who had ad-
vanced to the high school age, that
nearly all OF the lower grades had
to ne turned out of that building
erected fifteen years ago, and today
a tall boy OF sixteen is cramped UP
lin seat intended for a ten-year-old
! child, until in his torture he little
cares whether Caesar conquered
Gaul, IL he could only stretch his
legs or straighten his backbone.
There is an impression nowadays
that the pupil should be given indi
vldual attention, and Presiden
Woodrow Wilson instituted the small
class system into Princeton. VIVA
would Woodrow Wilson think OF Ii.
here il he would see an averag,
built young woman attempting L
give individual attention to sixt!

vidual" attention. each with pri

state institutions to be placed in our
.neighboring cities, SO that now it il
our only recourse to prove that we
are able to take care of ourselves,
and to establish a seat Of learning
that may be pointed to with pride.
The present high school building
makes. a good grade building, and
every room in its is needed for the
children in the center OF town, but
on account OF its size, is totally un-
adapted for modern high school.

Now, as this is highly improbable,
let ns consider. what we can do. We
must expect no help from the OUT
side, but must depend upon our
selves. There is hut one way open
to US, and that Is, a bond issue. 1t is
the plan Of Mr.. Thorn and
his capable colleagues to ask for all
adequate amount both for a high
school and grades buildings.
The thorough equipment Of q
/ modern high school is no triaing
matter. To provide the requisite
famount Of grounds, gymnasium, a
manual training school, a domestic
tscience depar tRaeHts a, proposed busl-
ness course, a probable art and muS
sic department. library and Offices OF
administration, win take no small
sum. Before deciding upon the
plans for such an Institution the
board of education will visit such
.up-to-date schools in other cities as
are recommended, and will make a
composite of the best in each. 1t is
the intention to hold the books of
expenditures open TO the public so
that they may be- examinedsa at any
time.
The tax viii not he an excessive
one-1S cents on each hundred dol
lars with gradual liquidation Of
the bonds-to extend over a period
of thirty years at most. But even
| this payment has no frightening
features connected with it, for at
present there is no prospect of prop
Ierty values ever declining here, and
every prospect that they will stead
lily increase in value, Our coal and
Jour gas are seemingly inexhaustible,
and few years, too, will see a
marked change in the added attrac-
tiveness of our town When we see
sky-scrapers towering at every cor
ner, apartment houses spring up
like mushrooms over night. as ii
were, we must wake up to the fact
that we are no longer a village Of
five thousand that we We're fifteen
years ago. We are city with a
city's needs, and we must rise,to our
responsibility.
