No MORE THAN LAST YEAR,

NO HDHt AN LtNI ran
We observe that one of the women
who went TO Albany 10 protest against
votes for women" began her remarks
with the words The philosophy of the
"woman's suffrage movement rests upon
two main propositions. both Of which
are fallacious' Did she suppose that
the women who were listening, or the
men who were going 10 decide the ques-
tion. cared a-what was that fine word
one of Mr.. Sheehan's literary friends
exhumed the other day?-a "bodle about
philosophy? The women will vote or they
will not vote without regard 10 what
philosophy has 70 say.
Likewise the magazine writer who re-
lated what he had observed in the states
having women suffrage, how their
vomen's employment legislation Jagged
behind that in the Eastern common
wealths. for eXample-the facts he pre-
sented were interesting, but did he sup
nose that the suffrage would ever be
awarded or withheld upon the produc-
tion of statistics showing that it would
or would not "do good And the
women who reiterated their historic ar
plments against sex aristocracy.' did
they suppose that arguments would ever
settle the question? The real issue IS,
DO the women want 10 vote? When they
do philosophy may go whistle. But the
suffragistS are so far from proving that
they represent the wishes of majority
of their sex that the legislative commit
tee listening to them may safely survey
the general situation and conclude that
the last year has produced no apprecia-
BILE change.

Good Points.

Governor Vardaman developed
great strength in the rural dis
tricts in the recent senatorial pFi-
mary in Mississippi. To illus
trate that they were not keeping
up with the industrial procession
he held the mirror up to nature
this style:
What we need is to raise more
produce at home and stop buying
so much from the Northern
Stats. Take the average Missis-
sippi farmer; hh buys canned and
dried fruit, and other canned
food. He gets up at the alarm of
a Connecticut clock, fastens his
Chicago suspenders to his De-
troit oyeralls, washes his face
with Cincinnati soap in a Penn
sylvania washbasIn, sits down to
Grand Rapids table, eats Indiana
hominY, fried with st. Joseph
lard on St. Louis stove, and puts
a St. Louis bride on a Tennes-
see mule. He sits down at night
TO read bible that was printed

ers himself with a New Jersey
blanket, only to be disturbed all
night by the bowling of his dog
which is the only home-raised
product on the place.

Bring School And Life Into Closer
Touch.

The State Department of Edu-
cation, under the lead of the State
Superintendent, is trying to help
the rural schools.
The effort is made to bring the
elementary school into closer cor
relation with the work of the
farm and with the government.
The teaching of elementary az
riculture and civil government is
made mandatory. Nine-tenths of
the pupils are interested in the
farm. The pupil comes from a
home where he hears of ''fertiliz-
err" planting" ''cultivating, I"
COWS, chickens" and stock"
The agriculture text book is an
appeal to the intsrests of the pu-
pill.
Thes as the children are to be-
come citizens, it is important
that they learn somethink of the
nature and offices of our govern
ment. Teachers should take
hold and fall in line with this eff
fort of the State Superintendent.
In some counties the formation
of Boys Corn Clubs is doing
much. Alachua county showed
more vhan eight hundred boys
and girls contesting for the priz-
es for the best wed OF corn from
an acre.
The Farmers Unionin DeSoto
is working along this line and ask
the cooperation of teachers.
A State Inspector of Elemental
ry Schools has been appointed.
Capt. G. M. Lynch is filling this
position. He will try to work
through County Superintendents
and teachers. 1t is his aim to
bring about a simplification of the
course of study in the elemental
ry schools. In some states bet
ter results are obtained. Pupils
are developing a better knowl-
edge of english and more power,
skill and ambition.
All forces for betterment
should pull together.-DeSoto Co
