Newspapers Are Textbooks
In the Schools Of Missouri

SPRINGFIELD, Mo-, Nov 3.-Pro-
lessor William II. Lynch, field repre-
sentative of the Springfield State Nor
NAL School, and for fifty years in the
service of Missouri schools, has sub
scribed for eighty-six newspapers,
many of which are metropohtai,
dailies.
Professor Lynch is given credit as
being the first teacher to introduce
the newspaper as an English text
book in Missouri schools, IL not in the
country, his first experiment having
Il cen made more than thirty years ago.
He has steadily increased the number
oil newspapers that he subscribed to
until he expects ultimately to read one
Hundred newspapers from various
arts of the county each week.
Professor Lynch says in this study
he has his pupils pick various articles
and then discuss questions OF gram
/. atical construction.
"The newspapers and the public
schools are the universities of the
world,'' said Professor Lynch.

Between
Ourselves

The First Town Meeting
House" tablet is to be I'M
yelled today at the corner of
Broad street and Branford
place.
We are indebted to the
Schoolmen's Club and to the
children of the public schools
for this and two other CON-
memorative tablets elsewhere
in the city.
These tablets are splendid
things and the pity is we have
not more of them. Newark
is particularly rich in histori-
cal interest-richer, in fact,
than the average city--yet
there are fewer tablets here
than you find in other East
ern towns and cities. Boston,
for instance, has hundreds OF
tablets and SO has New York
and Philadelphia. Newark
has three or four. Are we
ashamed OF our ancient and
honorable lineage or is II
simply that we are all too
busy making money to care?
BY all means let us mark
the spots where Newark's
first buildings stood, or, bet
fer still, mark the original
buildings themselves. There
are many very old structures
In and about Newark.
