AN EDUCATIONAL DAY IN MARYLAND

hold such rallies in every county be
fore the next meeting of the legisla.-
ture. The State Board OF Education is
especially anxious to create sentiment
which will result in favorable action
by the state legislature on the follow
ing measures:
l. An increaser state appropriation
fer common schools.
2. A state supervisor of rural
schools as an assistant to the State
Superintendent of Public Instruction.
3. A statewide compulsory educa-
ton law
4. A minimum term of at least ser-
en- months for all colored schools
5. Teacher-training courses in ap-
proved high schools under the auspices
of the State Board of Education
6. A state supported summer school
for rural teachers.
These educational rallies are doing
much toward building up the needed
sentiment The State Superintendent
explains to the audiences at these
rallies the condition of the schools of
the state and what is needed for i'm
proyement An outside person is OBJ
tanned for each meeting who can con
trast the strength and weakness of the
Maryland public schools with those OF
other states and who can also explain
how the proposed plans for improve
ments are working out elsewhere.
Each meeting is in charge of the
County Superintendent. Success de-
ponds largely upon mis- ability to get
people to attend.

RAILROADS ENDORSE THE Y. NJ A.

In an interview with a representa-
tive of the Associated Press, ex-Presi-
dent Finley, of the Southern Railway
declared that the work done by the
Railroad Young Mems Christian Asso-
citation was just as important an econ
omic in railroad management as that o.
the maintenance of the road-bed, the
provision of trackage, terminal facil-
tiles, and equipment
President Finley had himself
watched the growth and work that had
been done by the Association along
other lines, and had come to realize
the Importance of this work in improy-
ing the personnel of the employees
who spend their lay over time at the
Young Mems Christian Association, re
turn to their work in good physical
condition and with a clear head, AMI
that both men and company by which
they are employed are benefited there
by.

we'll spent was strikingly illustrated in
the last panic Nineteen Hundred and
Eight was a year of diminishing rail-
way gross earnings and in some cases
of vanishing income. 1t was year Of
drastic economics, in which railway
managers, having saved every dollar
possible, looked about for opportuni-
ties to save pennies.
Yet, in all this reduction in which
appropriation for many urgently need
ed betterments were scaled down or
postponed and in which in many cases,
dividends were reduced or discounted,
not a single railroad cut off its appro-
priation for its proportion of the cur
rent expenses of the Railroad Young
Mems Christian Association. The con-
tnuation of these appropriations dur
ing this period of depression was a
distinct concession to the work Of the
Association in recognition of its econ
omic value. That its employees shall
properly care Tor themselves out OF
working hours is fundamentally as i'm
portant to a railway company as that
its locomotives shall be put in order at
the end of a run. The contributions o.
the companies to the railroad Young
Mems Christian Association are made
because it has demonstrated its useful
ness as an emergency for aiding men
to care for themselves and increase
their efficiency

bot County, Maryland, recently held Ut
t.aston. the county seat illustrates the
value of this method of arousing in
terest in the needs of the schools. Ev-
cry school for white children in the
county sent pupils; some schools sent
their entire enrolment Over 1900
out Of 2 500 children in the schools for
white children in the county were
present, accompanied by teachers, pa
rents, and others interested in educa-
ton All Of Easton turned out to as
sist, and approximately $500 adults
from outside of Easton we're present
The program for the day included
athletic events, a spelling match, q
luncheon provided in part by the do
nestle science department of the Eas-
ton High School, a school procession
a pageant, and addresses by promin
ent educators.
The school procession was an in
spring sight The 1000 children, their
teachers, the local school trustees, the
county beard of school commissioners,
and the prominent visitors were in
line. The procession was headed by
the principal of the high school as d
mounted marshal and with him rode
Uncle Sam Following came pupils
in costume, who later took part in the
pageant, and the children in school
groups. Most of the girls wore white
dresse and carried American flags. The
toys also carried flags. Each group
marched under a banner giving the
name Of the school. The school trus-
tees, visitors, etc, rode in decorated
automobiles following the children.
The parade was over a mile in length
and was viewed by many thousand
people from Easton and all parts of
the county.
The historical pageant, entitled The
March of the Centuries" was present
ed by pupils of the Easton High School
1t was devised and staged by the prin-
cipal of the school The first scene
showed a group of Indians crouchins
on the platform in front of woodland
scene. TWO Indian maidens sang m
Indian song. This was followed by
the entrance of Columbus and his fol-
lowers. The remaining tableaux pic
lures the landing of the Pilgrims
George Washington and the Coloni:.l
Danes, the surrender o. CORVALLIS.
the death of Perry, the war with Mex
leo and Lee and Grant shaking hands
For a final scene, all of the charac-
ters were grouped en- the stage on
either side Of Uncle Sam and Miss
Columbia. Following the tableaux
were speeches by the State Suporin-
tendent Of Public Education, a repre-
sentative of the United States Bureau
of Education, and the Congressman Of
the district in which Talbot county is
located.
The purpose Of the rally was to stir
up interest in education in order to
secure legislative action for the i'm
provement Of the schools OF the state
and especially those located in rural
districts Similar rallies are being
held in other counties of the state. /,
