REMARKABLE GROWTH OF THE

Nearly Every County in Tennessee Will Soon Have One
During the Past Year Nineteen Counties Have been
Added to the List, Making Total of 63

hand, it is expensive not to have high
schools. | have made study of the
Tennessee counties and find that the
six which levied the highest taxes for
schools during the last decade gained
population, and of the six which levied
the least, four lost population and two
barely held their own. OF the unfor.
tunate thirty-seven Tennessee coun.
ties which lost population in the last
decade, three-fourths were those which
have levied under the average for
school tax. Do you want to know
why? Because people move out o:
counties with poor schools to go to
counties with schools. l have found
that true all over Tennessee. When
ever people move out of a county, it
is just that much poorer. So it Is
economy and an investment for q
county to levy taxes for good schools
and good roads, because such coun-
ty holds its population and draws
more.
Another objector says: "If we vote
a high school tax. the high school will
60 to some one town" That Is not
true. The whole county does get the
beneflt, and have received numbers OF
letters from men who say that their
country schools have better rural
teachers since the high school began
to train them. Others say that the
whole county has benefited by the teach.
ing Of agriculture in the high school.
Other counties figure that the whole
county has gained, because the high
school cost only $4,000 year. and ii
kept thirty pupils from going away
from that county to private schools in
other counties. They would have
spent an average of $500 apiece or
$4,000 year, all of which would have
been taken out of the county and lost.
So the county has made a profit OF
$4,000 on the high school. This doesn't
vantage of the free high school educa
ton in their midst and who otherwise
would never have been aroused to
take an education. Finally the whole
county does gain, because statistics
show every year that more pupils at
tend the high school from the rural
sections than from the towns in which
the high schools are located Taking
the state as whole there are about
LOO more pupils from rural sections
than from the towns in which the
county high schools are located.

MEASURING THE EARTH.
The Pole Star ls the Guide to the So.
luton of the Problem.

The Pole Star ls the Guide to the So.
luton of the Problem.
As the earth is a sphere, its mag
nitude will depend on the length
Of its diameter or its circumference.
But how can the length of either
be ascertained? We cannot follow
a line through the center of the
earth to the antipodes, nor can We
even travel around the surface of
the earth in a great circle to meas
ure the circumference, nor is it
necessary to attempt either. As
the circumference of the earth, like
the circumference of every circle, is
conceived to be divided into $50
equal parts or degrees, it is evil
dent that if we can ascertain the
length of any one of these parts we
have only to multiply it by $50 to
find the length of the circumfer-
ence. And if we divide the circum-
ference by 3 II we get the diam
eter. To illustrate:
The latitude of Philadelphia is 80
degrees 81 minutes north. This is
the altitude of the north pole of
the celestial sphere. Now, the polar
star is not at the north pole of the
heavens, but near it. The pole
star is l Il degrees from the pole
and describes IA small circle around
it. Such stars are called circum-
polar. The pole star is selected to
find the precise position of the
north pole of the heavens. Its up
per and lower EXAMINATIONS (higbest
and lowest points, are accurately
noted The point midway between
these two positions of the star is
the pole of the heavens.
Knowing the altitude of the pole,
not of the pole star, if we travel
due north or south till we find that
the pole has increased or decreased
a degree in altitude, it is evident
from what has been said that se
have travelled a degree on the
earth's surface, and if we measure
the distance in miles Travelled over,
making due allowance for elevated
ground, ETC., we have the length of
a degree, and if we multiply this
length by $50 we have the entire
circumference, and if we divided
this circumference by 3 ~ we get
the diameter. The length of a de.
gree of latitude on the earth's sur
face is found by actual measure.
ment to be 60 10 miles, which,
multiplied by $50, gives 24,s76
miles in the circumference of the
earth, and which distance, divided
by 3 ~, gives about 5000 miles di-
ameter. The exact student would
divide by 3.1416. The mean diam
eter of the earth is nearly 1856
miles.-Philadelphia Telegraph.

Weary Widowhood.

The death of the husband not
only blights the life of a Bengal
widow, but makes the rest of her
existence a state of unmitigated
misery and privations. She is re-
quired to fast on every eleventh
day of the moon, when she is de-
barred from all sorts of food and
drink for twenty-four hours. Her
sufferings from thirst on hot days
Of summer are extremely painful,
but she must go through them.
The widow must live OH one meal a
day and eschew meat and fish. She
must renounce ornaments and all
sorts of Injuries. The idea of such
a state of misery of his widow keeps
a man from hazardous enterprises,
not because he is afraid to die, but
because his death means SO much
misery to his wife.--East Indian
Mirror.

HE past twelve months
has seen the most re-
markable growth of
- county high schools in
s51gNMlN2 our history, and the
kSElNNJ wonderful interest taken
in them shows that it is
inevitable that every county in Ten
nessee will soon have one. In April,
1913, there were forty-five Tennessee
counties with high schools. During
the past year nineteen new counties
nave been added. .....
In this movement East Tennessee
has led. A year ago twenty-five of her
thirty-four counties had high schools.
Sequatchie, Blount, Meigs, Granger.
Greene, Hawkins, Carter. Unicoi have
been added this year. So you see East
Tennessee is nearly solid for high
schools. A year ago one-half the West
Tennessee counties and one-third the
Middle Tennessee counties had high
schools. This may surprise some peo-
pie after all they have heard of the
boosted culture in Middle Tennessee.
However, Middle Tennessee has moved
faster this year than West Tennessee.
IN Middle Tennessee eight counties
but in West Tennessee only three
counties were added. 1t is surprising
to see wealthy counties like Bedford,
Smith, Wilson, Robertson, in Middle
Tennessee, and like Gibson, Carroll,
Weakley, Hardeman. Benton, in West
Tennessee, that are still 30 unpro-
gressive. .. FL. .
Since this movement Is sweeping
the country, what argument can pos
sibly be advanced against county
high school levy? OF course some
people will raise the old cry OF cost.
I made a study of the high school tax
in Fayette county and fund that PSI
tax payers paid less than dime, $50
less than quarter, 1922 less than fifty
cents, 1859 less than one dollar, only
1888 between one dollar and two dol
lars, only thirteen between two dol
lars and three dollars, and only thirty
two paid above three dollars. This
does not count those who paid only
q poll tax The above represent the
real property tax payers. One-half of
these, you see, paid less than fifty
cents. Surely any man with property
would give that much to any good pur-
pose, to the church or the school or
the poor Expensive? On the other

of the large number of these trade
high schools Germany has taken
away much of England's trade. So the
North is hastily following Germany's
example and is creating these schools
in large numbers While / believe
thoroughly in the need of agricultural
education, and while every one is at
present talking on that subject, let
me prophesy that few years from
now, when We begin to build up our
Tennessee manufactures, every one
will be talking for trade high schools
just as diligently as they now advo
cate agricultural high schools These
trade high schools will be especially
needed in counties like Grundy, Van
Buren,, Hickman, Sewer, Cooke, Sulli-
van and Union, which, owing to their
mineral resources and water power,
will some day be great manufacturing
counties. Those counties should
make a start now by organizing high
schools in which both agriculture and
woodworking will be taught. These
woodworking courses could later de
velop into trade courses. The agri.
cultural and college preparatory
courses should be taught alongside the
trade training and in the same school
II they were taught in separate

tions can not be permitted in de-

A group of men in West Tennessee
were discussing this very question.
One man said: Education is an in
vestment. have spent $4,000 in send
ing my children away to school. Their
combined salaries now amount to ST.
600. Where could | have found a
$4,000 investment to leave them when
die on which they could get interest
ut $50 per cent? That is what $500
yearly means on my investment of
$4,000" Another man spoke up:
Yes, and look at old man W. He
never accumulated any money, but he
did manage to educate his five girls;
and now their combined income is
$4,000 a year. At six per cent it would
take 1000 to yield $4,000 yearly, and
cid man W never could have saved
hat much" Yes, education is an in
yestment, and one which shrewd ras-
Gals never can take away from your
children.

Education is such good investment
that an investigation made at Brook
iyn shows that boys increased earn
lngs as result of taking high school
education are so great that they
amount to paying him wage OF $40
for every day he goes to school. That
sounds surprising, but you can see it
Is true from this: Upon investigating
in that city the average earnings OF
digh school graduates through life, the
committee found that the young men
averaged $1,253 year and that an I'M
educated day laborer averaged $3.50
year through life. The difference each
year Is over $500. In thirty years this
would make $4,000 more earned by the
high school graduate. To get his high
school education that boy went to
school twelve years for 1870 days
each or 2,16O days. Divide 2,16O into
$4,000, and you will see that the
world paid that boy over $40 a day
wages for every day he went to school.

Of Philadelphia, estimates the earning
