SPLENDID service has been done to education
"A in the rural districts In this state by the hon
est and unyarnished criticism made relative to the
condition of the schoolhouses in Kent by the School
Commissioners Of that county. They hold to the
declaration that in OF the districts the cattle
housed much better than the school children
That is commentary shameful It is true. It
reveals condition which is a standing reproach to
the parents Of children because they are respon
sible for the fact that the buildings do even ap-
proxmate what they ought to be.
It is well for Kent county that the frank criticism
comes from within its borders end that the men who
make it know from personal observation that they
speak the truth. Now that the revelation has been
made and published broadcast the world what are
the men and the women in Kent county going 70 do
about IL? Are they lost shame that they will
sit complacenty beneath such a ashing as has been
inflicted upon them by their school commissioners and
permit things to drift they have been going?
The man or the woman who deliberately staryes the
mind Of child is almost as bad as one who staryes
its stomach The the woman who quarters
horses and better than he or she quarters the
schooboy the SCHOOLGIRL should kept beneath the
lash OF public opinion until the purse-strings are
loosened and better educational accommodations sup
piled
II only is fair to Kent county to say that it is not
the only offender in this State in this highly inn
porant matter. There rural districts in New Cas-
tie and Sussex counties In which the same spirit Of
parsmony prevails and in which the school buildings
are disgrace TO the taxpayers. All such places should
be listed posted. and kept posted until shame, if
nothing better impels the parents Of the schoolchl-
dron to do their duty toward them Il is not an in
spiration 10 a child to know that the horses and COWS
at home supplied with better accommodations than
the school children There many parents in
rural districts who have met their obligations they
should be met There many others who have fail
ed to do Friends of education in Delaware should
discriminate closely between the two classes and fight

girls in the rural sections educational debase-
