PAGE SCHOOL BILL
PASSAGE DESIRED
And School Men of This State
Are Urged to Give 1t
Attention.

CHARLESTON, w. Va. Dec. 2S.-
Those interested in the advancement
Of the high schools of the state are
giving some attention TO. and Prof. L.
l. Friend. supervisor of schools of
the state, is sending out letters to
principals Of schools urging them. to
become active in the movement for
government aid. At the first session
of the Sixty-second Congress a bill
was introduced by Senator Carroll S.
Page, of Vermont, entitled "A bill to
cooperate with the states in encou,-
aging instruction in agriculture, the
trades and industries nd home eco
nomics, in secondary schools in main
taining instruction in these vocation
al subjects in state normal schools;
in maintaining extension departments
in state. colleges Of agriculture and
mechanical arts; and to appropriate
money and regulate its expenditure. :"
To carry out the above provisions,
the bill provides for an appropriation
of 100000 beginning with the fis-
cal year ending June 30. 1915. This
amount is to be apportioned among
the states and territories in propo.-
ton to population.
This bill would mean much to West
Virginia, where the appropriation
for school purposes has not been
large and where from $4,000 to $780,
900 a year would be of wonderful
help. The West Virginia representa-
lives in congress- will be urged to
give the measure their hearty sup
port
Mr.. Friend is also sending out the
high school reports for the years 1911
Il, covering the period between Sep
TENDER, 1911 and June, 1912. and an Ell
fort will be made to have the stats
dts compiled as soon after the close
