WHY NOT RURAL HIGH SCHOOLS!

One bill i'm the Missouri Legislature
at the present session provides for
the establishment of high schools in
joint rural districts. The young peo-
pie of the rural districts are seriously
neglected under our present education
al system Many of the districts are
small and the funds at their disposal
are inadequate for providing compe-
tent instructors.
In these days OF great stress on edu-
cation the rural youth is placed at a
great disadvantage compared with the
youth who live in the city. He is
poorly equipped without a high school
education. To get this education now
he must leave home and go to the
city.
The problem CT educating his chill
dren is the biggest problem the farm
er of today has to solve. He wishes
his own children to have equal advan-
tages with other young persons and
this means that the children must
either leave home and go alone to
the city or that the farmer must leave
the farm and move his family there. |
With these conditions existing is it |
any wonder that our rural districts
are becoming depopulated and that
great numbers of farmers are moving
TO the city?
The consolidation of rural school
districts and the establishment of
high schools would largely remedy
this condition. The rural high school,
together with the existing convent
ences of the telephone and the rural
delivery. would be a powerful factor
in keeping the young people on the
farm.

Shall Women Vote!

Editor the Missourian: The Gen.
eral Assembly of Missouri is now con-
sidering proposed constitutional
amendment that will give women the
right to vote in Missouri. The COM
mittees on constitutional amendments
from the house and the senate have
passed fayorably on the proposition.
If the General Assembly approves the
measure it will be submitted to the
voters of the state for final decision.
Will the electorate of Missouri be
more efficient and expedient with
women at the polls? That is the chief
issue. 1t is not a question of rights.
Political scientists agree that voting
is a privilege, function of govern
ment and not a right. Who shall ex-
ercise this right is wholly a question
of governmental efficiency.
The exercise of the ballot will not
take women from the home 1t is
but the power to pass her opinion in
disputed governmental issues. The
factory work of Missouri is done chief
ly by men. But women are large
property holders. They are educators.
They have leisure. They can master
political problems. They can judge
character as well as men.
The questions of state are largely
questions of internal improvement.
social and moral progress. There is
no more progressive or moral body in
Missouri than the women.
But there still remains the fact that
many of the women are illiterate, i'm ,
practical. and uninterested in govern
ment. Is it wise to extend the ballot
to these? 1t is a question of the total
efficiency. Is the personnel of the
Missouri women superior to the pres
ent voting personnel?
Unless in extending the ballot to
women the state of Missouri is assured
of improved governmental efficiency,
it is best to call halt. 1t is best that !
a scheme for the elimination of the !
voter be carried before |
the ballot is extended. There are too !
many questionable voters among the |
men. The real problem of Missouri
is to eliminate this irresponsible voter,
regardless of race or sex, and give |
the ballot equally to those who can ;
qualify to fill this function of govern
ment H.B /

THE MAJOR BILL.

The Major Public Utilities Bill, mod
eled on the New York and Wisconsin
laws, creates state commission of
five men at salary of $500 a year
each. These commissioners are to be
appointed by the governor. They are
to have supervision over all public util-
tiles, such as railroads, telephone and
telegraph companies. electric lines.
gas, electric lighting and water COM
panies.
The commission will have the right
to control service and to provide for
just rates, to prevent dishonest cap
italization to see that no franchises un-
favorable TO the people are slipped
over" by the companies. IL will have
the power to appoint expert investi-
gators and to compel publicity of ac-
counts of public service corporations.
The commission will keep a public.
utility from becoming a public boss.
Many corporations are too big for a
city to handle. A railroad, with
shops in town can bully the town into
anything by threatening to remove
those shops. A local electrict light
company may say, "If you don't like
our rates, we'll cut you Off"
Under such a commission, however.
If the people have just cause for
complaint, they will have an oppor-
tunity to compel fair treatment.

She was seldom at home, day or night and conse-

known what it to have the true companionship

stay home evenings but after awhile he too fel, the

pleasant for the young folks at home he soon began
to spend his leasure moments at the saloon or at
clubs. The boy lad of sixteen, was with two
other boys OF the same age, arrested day for

then that Minnie Hallen determined to leaye the
home which offered no protection, no comfort and
parental love.

MOTHERS, HERE'S A LESSON FOR YOU

HERE is pathos in every line of the story
told by Minnie HalIan, the eighteen year
old girl recently arrested III Pittsburg; a
story which clutches the heart strings, and
serves to bring to mothers realization of
the necessity of throwing about the home
the protecting influence of their presence,
rather than devoting too much time to So
clal activities or matters pertaining to tie
publication of municipal conditions
The girls story Was brought TO light af-
ter she had been rescued by the police from
a brothe. She said she had run away from
