Civic League For Malta

The ladies of Malta are talking of
forming Civic League and if prop
er interest can be aroused in the
minds Of large number of the wo-
men, then the organization will be
one of the very best ever formed in
this community.
A Civic League would be the name OF
an organization that would have for
it's object the identifying Of the
town-this civic beauty would re-
suit from cleanliness and artistic re-
lations. Cleanliness is the watch
word that brings beauty to towns,
homes and individuals, which when
aided by artistic relations, results in
JOY to all it's inhabitants.
The educative effect of beautiful
place, or an effort at creating a
beautiful home, is great and con-
slant. You become more beautiful
by identifying your surroundings.
This is really the object of the whole
thing-to make better, to uplift-
anything that helps to uplift you and
those you come in contact with, is
worth much more than bank accounts
or broad acres of land.
This coming close to nature, this
opening the eyes to see the beauty
with which the Creator has so abund.
antly supplied this world, is a real,
great blessing, and is as necessary
as any other work, if we want to be
broad minded and happy.

TEACHERS HOW WOULD YOU
LIKE 40 90 TO THE PEN2
Attorney General Says supplemental
Books Must Not he Used.

| Mr.. or Miss Teacher and Mr.. Mem
|ber Of the school board, how woult
you like to lose your Job, boz fined
from 500 TO $500 and then spend
Ia year In the state penitentiary?
That is what the state law says in
regard to the use Of supplemental
books in public schools, so II you
are using these supplements-be-
ware.
County Attorney Rugh has receiv-
ed from Attorney General Dawson a
letter directing that the use Of sup
Elemental text books in the COM
mon schools Of the state must no
longer be permitted. The attorney
general holds that under the recent
court decision only the books adopt
ed for use in Kansas by the State
Text Book Commission may be used.
In looking UP the law on the sub
ject 1t Is found that a very severe
penalty attached for the use Of sup
Elemental books in schools. The
law states plainly that the text COM
mission shall decide as to what books
shall be used and adopted.
One section Of the law provides
that additional or supplemental books
shall not be used. Another section
Of the law provides that none Of
the specified books shall be ignored.
For either case the law provides a
penalty for members Of the school
board or teachers responsible of a
fine from 500 TO $500, a prison sem
tence not exceeding one year and
forfeiture of office.
1t seems the abuse of the law has
been general, the attorney general
will only ask that the supplemental
books be dropped at this time but IL
they are not, the county attorneys
will be asked to prosecute.
When County Superintendent Steen
was informed Of this today he said:
Il think 1t 10 unfair. So many Of
he state text books are inferior to
Jome Of the supplements. They do
not have enough material in them
ind many teachers find 1t necessary
o use supplemental text books. II
am mot mistaken, the high school
lere at Abilene is using supplements.
think the law is good; but the trou-
lie believe lies with the state text
,ook commission. 1t contracts books
or certain price, which Is very
ow, and the book publishers are
ompelled to leave out material in
