WHERE DOES THE MONEY GO?
Too Much Of Our School Money In
Spent for GENERALIZATION Little
for the Army.

Editor The Caucasian: notice
Carolina has only half a chance of
an education when compared TO chill
dren of other States. 1t may be, the
children in the State are not well
provided for, in the amount of mon
ey which goes 10 them. But | would
like to know what State spends more
on its superintendent Office than
North Carolina.
Think of it, Drs. Joyner, Bivins,
Mebane, Brogden and Conner are
connected with the State Superin-
tendent's Office! 1t would be inter-
esting to know how they all became
connected with this one Office and
how the State can profitably employ
such a layout of heavy weights.
These are high priced men and do
not serve for naught. 1t looks very
much as if the State was paying too
much for generals in this fight,
against ignorance, and too little on
the army of children to be educated.
AS another evidence Of this tend
ency, the Wake County Treasurer s
books show that the County Super
intendent's Office costs the people OF
Wake county practically $4,000!
This is more than the State Superin-
tendent's office cost in the admins
tration of ]. c. Scarborough.
II this sort of thing prevails
/ ic nj in
why the children have such poor
chance to go to school. AS matter
| OF interest to the taxpayers and tC
| those who would like to see the pub
lie school improved, it would be vel
| to ascertain first how much money
is expended before any is realized by
the children for whose benefit the
school system was created.
ALfQUIS.
1.-THE above article is contributed
| by a prominent Democrat. He calls
attention to some facts that were
pointed out by The Caucasian during
the last campaign, but the good gov
eminent campaigners termed it
|
that this State is spending more
money on education than we are get
ting in result, and it is up to some
one to explain. They have in man!
/! instances built one school house and
torn down two, making the distance
so great that some of the children
cannot attend, and now the Demo
cratic officials want to tear dowI
more school houses, make the dis
lance greater, and haul the children
to school in order that they can Civ
a few days longer school term il
certain localities, or possibly give
four months school as they has
promised to do even before our tax
es were increased.-Asso. Ed. TIL

tage In numerous ways by wearing

Queen Elizabeth of the Belgians a
woman of rare tact and intelligence ID
appealing to her people in a manner
which is doing much to endear her to
them. She lends her energies to King
Albert's efforts to remove the dark
stain caused by Leopold's countenance
OF the Congo atrocities. Her last birth
day was generally celebrated as Rose
day, and the sale of the queens birth
day roses realized $4,000, which was
given to the tuberculosis relief fund.
On her next birthday the edelwelss
will be substituted for the rose. and
the proceeds from its sale viii be de-
voted to combating the sleeping sick
ness in the Congo.
Miss Ellen La Motto was appointed
a tuberculosis nurse In Baltimore ave
years ago. When the work was taken
over by the city health department
she was made nurse In charge. she

ton who make about 200 visits a day.
