Hurlsy's Reason For Painting Costing
Too Much

First, You try and get the cheap
est man. 1t makes no difference
whether he Is an experienced paint
err or not, you let him do your work.
IL his business has gotten slack in
the mines, carpentering. trimming,
plumbing, farming, ditching, or
whatever his trade may be. If he
can hold brush straight, people
have drawn the idea that he is a
painter. And IL he bids three or
four dollars cheaper he gets the
work, regardless of how long the
man has been in the painting BUSH
ness, who is just little higher.
Then the next year you are ready
70 paint again, and say the paint
you used last year was no good at
all. 1t is not the paint that goes to
the bad. II is the man who mikes IL,
that causes IL to fail, He does not
know how to mix his paint. He
goes ahead and uses enough Japan
Dryer and Turpentlne TO burn up a
town, much less house. The tur-
pentine and dryer of course are so
strong that trey kill the oil and
then evaporates, leaving the lead so
dry that It comes of in flakes, or
powders of, leaving house In a
worse condition than If 1t had never
been paInted.
Second, you are cautious about
who mixes your medicine. Now,
think about your paints aud painter.
He should be as we'll MP in his line.
Do not pay $25 90 Tor your paint and
$1,000 for your painter. and the next
year the same thing over; but get a
man who knows how TO make IL
last about four years, for little
more money. The people of Earl
ington'have been fooled long enoug b
by being LED to believe that the
black damp causes failure in house
paint aud colors. There 10 nothing

Third, the new painters ideas of

GOOD ROADS AND SCHOOLS.

GOOD ROADS AND SCHOOLS.
The rural population is more
willing to support better schools
today than at any previous time.
Itis being realized that all edu-
cational activitiesor agencies
must be more or less correlated,
and, more than all else, that they
must be made accessible to the
children. La many counties here
bad roads prevail, most Of the
schools are of the antiquafed
one-room variety. They are ps-
ually located along bad roads,
which-durip the winter, whtn
the schools are usually in SEES
sion, become so nearly lmpossi
BILE as. to make 1t difficult for the
children TO reach them. This
condition causes irregular at
tendance and restricts the edu-
cational opportunities of the
child. Not only this, but it Of
ten impedes the economic con-
solidation of these smaller schools
into larger, stronger graded
schools, with high school courses,
directed by competent princi-
pal and corps of teachers, ac-
cording to the Office of Public
Roads, u. S. Department of Ag-
riculture.
On the other hand, III counties
which have improved their roads,
schools are easily reached, the
average attendance il greater,
the efficiency largely increased
and economic consolidation made
possible. Regular attendance at
school lmeans consistent and
regular growth of both school
and pupil, and consolidation of
scho0ls means maximum effici
ency at a minimum of cost. 1t
is also noteworthy that there is
a marked tendency for the con
solidated school to become the
social aud intellectual center of
the community. Most Modern
rural school houses are so con-
structed AS to serve the COM
munity as gathering places for
various kinds of public meetings,
and where vans are used to con
vey the children to school during
the day, they are frequently
pressed into service TO haul
farmers and.their wives to insti-
Itute work, lecturers, or enter
tainment at the schoolhouse. TLe
consolidated school becomes a
sort of community center to
which all educational and social
activities converge, and in order
that lit may properly perform
that function all of the highways
leading to 1t should be improved
as to render it readily accessibl.,
throughout the year.

Some CONSERVATION was developed
among the state officials on report
this week to the effect that the eNecu-
tive council had directed that the
printing in the case of matter going
before the interstate commerce com
mission affecting interstate rates
should not be paid for by the state out
of the ordinary printing funds. but
must be paid for out of the appropria-
ton for rate matters. There has been
great deal of this printing done both
by the railroad commissi IN directly
and the commerce counsel department.
If 1t was to be necessary 20 have the
printing paid for out OF the special
fund for prosecution of interstate rate
cases 1t would seriously affect the work
Of the department.
But it was also found that if this
has been ordered, three briefs in very
important cases now in the hands of
the printer, would be delayed until
too late for use at Washington.
1t was found. however. that no such
order has been made and will not be
made. The printing for enc depart
ment is on par with that of every
other. Very likely the amount of the
printing in interstate rate cases Will be
reduced the coming year. as 1t Is not
anticipated there will be other cases
as important as those the past year.
