is considered legitimate.

the schools in our villages and
small towns makes it impossible for
those places to offer such prepara-
ton as is offered by this big state
school. Many realizing the ineffi-
cheney of local facilities spare no eX-

private academies in the older states.
If the people understood the condi-

send their children here: if they al

tuition, they would save their money
and give their boys and girls the
superior advantages of a fully accred-

are of the opinion that it will remain

that he has been a very busy man for

there is hardly another country on

for growing two crops in the same

Oklahoma's Unique School,
Aong before the advent of state
God. Oklahoma had developed a
reat public school system. Under
he rev conditions she is extending

ming more consistently the func-
ons of the various higher institu-
ons already established, and is
iding to the facilities for the train
X in agriculture and the practi-
hl arts.
One really unique feature Of this
.atc.wide system is the University
preparatory School located at Ton
ava in Kay county. The provi-
on for this institution is peculiar
that it offers secondary training
state expense. There are only
40 other schools of its kind in the
ntire world, so far as we know

I Pocatello, Idaho. The Idaho
,hocl and the Tonkawa school were
,unded the same year, 1901.

IA, which shall be located within

sAcCording to this act a building

mber, 1902, with : teachers and

lere not adequate for such an en-
bilment. Since that time the school
bs increased so rapidly that today
boasts of of the most modern
hOol buildings in the entire South
(ist, and jan enrolment of more
ban 500 students.
From the foregoing it has been
ben that legislative appropriation is

hratory school. But It is not the
bly, one. The preparatory school
