RURAL SCHOOL
IS A LAGGARD
Main Educational Effort /
Conferred IN The Civ
Schools

"The rural school is the one lag
gard in the educational procession"
declares E. T. Fairchild, Kansas state
superintendent Of public instruction,
in a monograph just published for
free distribution by the United States
Bureau OF Education.
This condition is due, among other
things, to the fact that the emphasis
of educational thought has been
placed on the city schools, the high
schools, and the colleges, at the ex.
pense Of the rural school. Mr.. Fair
child also finds that 'the ever-in-
creasing trend of population toward
the cities and the growing per cent
of tenant farmers, have had dis
tinct and deterrent effect upon our
country schools
1.-The following is a true, though
not full Indictment" continues Mr..
Fairchild. 'tOf the 12,000,O0O rural.
school children, constituting a clear
majority of the whole number of the
youth Of school age, less than Is
per cent are completing the work of
the grades. The teaching body is i'm:
mature and lacks proper training.
Terms are short
School buildings are poor, insani-
tary, and ill-equipped. The school
enrolment is constantly decreasing.
The supervision is wholly inadequate.
Cost Of instruction is higher than in
the grades. ,high-sch0ol privileges
are denied the great majority Of these
boys and girls.
"The strong, virile, rural school Of
a generation ago has gone, and in it's
place is a primary school weak in
numbers and lacking in efficiency.
The country boy and girl Of this
strenuous and complex twentieth
century are not Afforded equal educa-
tional opportunities.

A town is in some ways like a
person. Ii it amounts to any
thing it must be largely self made.
The town that drifts, like the per-
son that drifts, or the ship that
drifts. is not likely to come to the
right harbor. If prosperity is
the haven desired. it will not de
reached without determination
and self-guidance.
A town is a problem like
child. 1t should not be left to
grow up by itself, Its destiny
should be guided by the wisdom
of its elders. There is no lack of
elders in any town who have op-
inions as to what is wrong with
it. They are to be found at the
grocery store, the cigar store, and
every common meeting place. IF
these wlseacres would exercise
their perspicacity in figuring out
what was good for the town, and
then would all pull together in
trying to bring that good about,
the result would be such a matter
of local pride that nobody would
want to talk about anything else.
The destiny of a community,
like that of an individual, can be
controlled; the possibilities of de-
velopement and improvement are
almost Unlimited; and it is not
only wisdom but money in the
pocket for citizens to take their
town in hand and try to make it
amount to something.

For State Treasurer.

w. ID. McReynolds Of Boise has
authorized the announcement of
his candidacy for state treasurer
subject to the Republican pri.
m aries of the state. Mr.. Mercy.
nolds has been resident of Boise
for l9 years, coming here in 1892
from Chattanooga. Tenn. He was
engaged in the sheep business for
six years and was a deputy in the
Office Of the county clerk and re-
corder for six years. Two years
ago he was selected as chairman of
the Republican county committee
and made most successful fight
IN this county, carrying it for the
entire Republican ticket in spite
of the certainty felt by the Demo-
Gratis that Hawley would secure a
majority. He is also serving as
chairman of the Republican Gen.
tral committee of Boise City.
Mr.. McReynolds for the last two
years has been engaged in the real
estate and insurance business. He
has always been Republican and
has been jealous in his devotion
to the party's interests in this Sec
ton of the state. He has a large
circle of friends both within polit-
ical lines and outside and will
make a strong race for the namin-
alton.

Building the New Road.

Contractor Gossi, who has the con-
tract for grading the new Boise
Valley road west of Meridian, came
into town this week and established
a camp here. Dirt will fly from
the suburbs OF M eridian west to
the intersection Of the old line. as
fast rs fifty man with teams can
make it. After the grading is done
and the track laid the work of
building the new Meridian depot
will be started. There was rumor
in town few days ago that the
depot would be placed over in the
south part of town, but this is an
error, caused, no doubt, Ly the
activity of the company IN securing
right of-way for a freight spur in
that part of town, and has nothing
to do with the passenger and
freight depot, which will probably
be located on the lots mentioned
in The Times several weeks ago
on the corner of Meridian and
Idaho streets. ...
On account of the growing i'm
p ortance of the fruit shipments in
this territory the Boise Valley
company is determined to get its
share of the business. Last year
there were some growers who
h auled their fruit to Meridian
rather than trust to the uncertainty
of refrigerator cars being sent out
on the Boise Valley promptly, and
as few hours delay in harvest |
season may mean loss, the Boise
V alley directors have decided that |
all fruit in this vicinity entrusted |
to their care will be given prompt |
erVice from now on. To that end |
spur will be built in the south |
part of town, leading from the
Boise Valleys new line to the 0.
5. l.. railway tracks. Under this
arrangement the necessity of run
ming the fruit cars, loaded on the
Boise Valley, down to Boise and
then on to the Short Line tracks,
will he done away with. All this
means a convenience to the fruit
growers, as we'll as being of benefit
to Meridian's shipping interests.
This is just a starter in the ben
efts that are bound to accrue to
M eridian through the building of
the new electric line.
The Times, during the agitation
three months ago, ventured the
prediction that the decision of the
Boise Valley people to build the
main line through the town, would
be the best thing-outside of the
completion of the water works
to happen to Meridian in years.
Time will verify this prophecy,
some wiseacres have
sought to minimize its Importance.
Of course, for the town to prosper,
the people generally will need do
their share of the boosting, but
this will be done, and the future
and prosperity of Mer-
dian is practically assured.

In the first quarter the battle ragged
