SURVEY OF ITS COUNTY SCHOOLS
Inspection Now Being Made i'm
Saline.

Saline.
Prof ]. d. Elliff of the School of
Education is making survey of the ru-
raj schools of Saline County. He
began visits September 1, and expects
to have all data compiled by the mid
die of October.
A school survey is a careful and
comprehensive examination of a
school building and its equipment, and
contains all available knowledge
about the pupils-their environment
and their physical, mental and moral
conditions. The number of windows
in each room, the number of panes of
glass and the size of the panes are
some of the data noted by the visitor.
Methods of cleaning the pupils states,
the number of tons of coal burned in
the schoolhouse stove last winter and
the condition of pupils eyesight are
other things noted by the investigator
which serve to show the scope of the
examination.
Saline county was chosen because
it has the wealthiest rural school dis
tricts in the state. The results of the
survey will be presented to the leg
islature as a part of the annual re-
port on rural schools.

HONOR.

In the early part of the war when
there was a call for Belgian volun-
teers a Belgian merchant who owned
a small shop answered the call. He
did not close his shop. Instead he
left the door open and put sign in
the window to this effect, Il have
gone to war, walk in, buy your goods
and put the money in the cash draw
er." Not an article was stolen and
all paid for what they got.
In a local confectionery store the
cashier was called away from the cash
register for a few minutes. 1t hap
pened while he was gone several GUS
toners came to pay their check. They
waited a minute and then put the
change and the check on the counter;
those that did not have the exact
change took it from a pile that had ac
cumulated. Two customers who had
an account on the day book wrote
their names and amount of goods on
the book.
And yet We have people who say
he world is growing worse.
