SCHOOLS IN DENMARK.

SCHOOLS IN DENMARK.
Thirty years ago Denmark was one
of the poorest agricultural countries in
Europe. Not because the soil was poor
but because the soil had been cropped
for so many years in an unscientific
way that the return per acre became
very low. Much of Denmark is below
sea level and dikes and forest hedges
are built to protect and preserve the
soil. just how to bring back this soil
TO high stage Of productivity again
was the problem that confronted the
Danes, and it was not until the scienti-
fic educator and the schools came to
their rescue.
The Danish farms are we'll organized
through the school system. To show
that the high stage of effective farming
now again carried on in Denmark, it
might be well to note that there cer-
tainly must have been and still Is
close relation between the school and
farming, when only one tenth of one
per cent of the people are illterate,
that is can't read or write.
In Denmark all the children must
enter school at seven and remain in the
elementary school eight years. Many
OF the schools are just one department
schools like ours, but most of them are
consolidated that is several districts
combine and build school house of two,
three or more departments Children
that have far to go are transported to
school by wagon, 1--WE have number
of such consolidated schools In Wiscon-
SIM
Most teachers in Denmark ere men.
In the United States only 1915 are men.
The teacher lives in house located on
a ten or twenty acre plot near the
school house. Here experiments are
carried out in nature study and agricul-
ture. The proceeds from the farm be-
long to the teacher as part of his sal
ary. The school buildings of Denmark
are fine architectural structures, and
usually contains rooms for the teachers
lodging should there be no home speci-
ally built for them.
From the ages of Is to Is most child
rem do not go to school but at this time
are taught to work. For this purpose
they enter government inspected
homes, where the work Is of the kind
that makes for physical growth, gen.
orally ordinary farm vocational work.
AT the age of Is they again enter the
Folks High School for year or two
which in general ends their education.
In this High School, however, people
of all ages are found. Old men or wo-
men enter this school at any time when
they think they care to, and when they
think they may profit by their attend
ance. The subjects taught in the Dani sh
schools are not exactly all of practical
nature, but generally more of the cul-
tural nature that tend to make the
Danes real thinkers. Education is
strictly compulsory there. To-day
Denmark raises more per acre than any
other country in the vor,d and Trey do
not hesitate to admit that their schools
have in large measure been RESPONSE
BILE for the re-awakening.

WHY DON'T He GO?-Senator Har-
ris has introduced resolution in the
Wisconsin Senate, denouncing as cow
ards and traitors those who have fled
to Canada to avoid the draft, and in
structing the judiciary committee to
inquire If there is any way of punish
ing them. We do not know who Sena-
tor Harris is, or where he came from;
but If he, and men OF his ilk, wonld join
the army, instead of wasting the peo-
pies money in introducing frivolous
and nonsensical resolutions in Madison,
they would save the taxpayers thou
sands of dollars, as well as preserve
many of our brave soldiers bodies from
rebel bullets.

Ornaments last longer than any
thing else that man makes. There are
brooches and necklaces In museums
more than 40 centuries old. Moal
ments, perhaps. stand second, and
houses third, Tks life OF furniture Is
shorter still. There is very little fur
niture In England which dates be-
yond the year 1900. Pictures last long
er than furniture. and there are saint-
ings still In fair condition which have
