FOR BOYS AND GIRLS
Our Public Schools Trained to
Serve Interests of the
Numbers.

Our public schools are ma :ntained
primarily to serve the interests of
the greatest numbers The demand
that subjects be taught which have
ii direct bearing up on the activities
Of life, is natural result Of OUR free
school system and popular education
The greatest problem before the
American people at the present time
is to readjust our educational sys-
TEN to meet these new demands. The
new education or tile education which
will fit young people for the duties
Of life is coming, but in many parts
Of West Virginia it is coming all too
slowly. In the meantime our best
young blood is being drawn to the
city. We can expect little else when
we examine the work which is being
done in many Of our schools. The
average high school teaches top: ,s,
holds up ideals which will necessar-
lily leave boys and girls to sigh for
the city life. Who is to blame for
this condition. You answer, those
who make our courses Of study. No,
t is only necessary fo- the parents,
taxpayers, and those who have the
interests Of our boys and girls at
heart to demand that an education
that is SO old that it is musty be sup
planted by one that fits for life.
The city movement can be most ef-
fectively checked when we give the
same attention to such subjects as ag-
riculture, manual training, domestic
science, and domestic art as we are
giving the dead languages and an
| cient history. Less than s per cent
Of the boys and girls who enter the
public schools ever take a college
course, yet our high school courses
are arranged to promote the interests
of this email number and the 95 per
cent are sacrificed. At the present
| time teachers are being engaged,
courses of study arranged-let us con-
slider the boy and girl who will never
attend college.

EXODUS OF AMERICANS
FROM NORTHERN MEXICO
Terror-S trickent Refugees Hurry
Across Rio Grande,' Fearing V;o-
Ience From ConstjtutionaiiStS


Ell PASO, Tex, April PA gen
eral exodus of Americans from N0r>!t-
ern Mexico set out yesterday. A train
load Of terror-stricken refugees from
Chihuahua and Durango arrived n
Juarez and the passengers hurried
across the Rio Grande. There were
sixty abroad, including a few Ger
mans, Frenchmen, and Spaninrds.
They reported that all mines in
the Parral and Santa Barbara dis
tricts had clo5eu down, and that all
the American employees were en-
route here, antic: pating that the con-
stitutionalists will unite with Huorta
agains the United tates.
According to a story told by Amer
lean refugees from Torreon, al
American known IS Maj j." McDOn-
aid, an officer in the constituencies
army, was captured b. the federals
and cruelty tortured According to
the story, Mai Mcdonald, who is a
native Of Berkeley, Cal, was with
Benavides' column wheI. j. was dis
patched toSan Pedro. He was said
to have been captured by the federals,
the soles of his feet cut Off, then
marched through the streets and fl
nally shot and burned at the stake.
Maj. Mcdonald figured once before
in an adventure in Mexico which
proved to have no foundat on, and
the latest story finds few believers.
The Texas civil authorities will ap-
peal to the military officials for the
removal of the $500 interned Mexi-
can prisoners at Fort Bliss to some
other point far inland. They assert
that the presence Of this Mexican
force near FL Paso is a constant men
ace, which would become much worse
if any Of the troops guarding them
should be withdrawn because Of war

RURAL CHURCH DAY

port Of the committee composed of
eaders and officials Of the various
religious denominations of this state.
A letter has been issued by this COM
mittee to all ministers and Sunday
school superintendent asking that
every church observe this day with
suitable service.
1t is now recognized that the rural
church may take position Of leader
ship in the development Of better agri
culture, better roads, better schools,
better homes, and better citizenship
in the community which it serves by
infusing the spirit Of Christian SER
vice into this community develop
ment. Only by thus arousing reglig-
ious motive can this government be
placed on a secure foundation and
permanent success be assured.
1t is hoped that all Of our country
people will consider hoy their church
may help the community and tbat
they will enter heartily into the spir-
it Of the day. .aeks aA,
