nsolidate.

A number of schools near Spring dale could. to the advantage of both. be consolidated and prove an economy to both. When the average daily attendance of a school runs so low that the cost per pupil runs up to s to $6 per pupil per month it is high time to consolidate.
 One of the first arguments to arise against consolidation is that 1t will benefit the town Well, all right, let them get all the benefit possible out of it, providing our children are also benefited.
 A very small school is the most un- successful school from nearly every standpoint. Cost, interest manifested, grade of work done, and morally. l know many will disagree with me oil the latter point, but from nearly if teen years experience in country and city schools 1 am confident that there is as much, if not more, pure cussedness learned in the small country school as in the city school.
 have seen many schools consoli- dated and under various plans both good and ill l am not much in favor of the wagon plan, but the mileage plan works excellently and more cheaply.
 I honestly believe that consolidation would not only help very much in the Springdale problem, but would be be a great benefit to the small school surrounding and an economy to both
 The farmer will lay aside his over supply of independence some day and combine, consolidate, monopolize, form a trust, etc, etc, for his own good, and quit biting his nose off ey- cry day or so just to show folks he is still independent. The order Of the day seems to be to get togeth- CT" Why not?

The place to take q true man measure is not in the market place or in the amen corner, nor in the forum or the field. but by his own fireside. There he lays aside his mask and you may learn whether he is imp or angel, king or eur, hero or humbug. We care not what the Worle says Of him, whether they crown him or pelf him with bad eggs; We care not copper what his reputation CT religion may be; if his babies dread his home coming; fl his better half swallows her heart every time she asks him for five dollar bill hes fraud of the first water, even though he prays night and morn untflhe is black in the face and howls hallelujaf until he shakes the eternal hills. But if his children rush to the front gate to greet him. and loves sunshine il- luminates the face of his wife when she hears his footstep, you can take it for granted that he is true gold, for his home is a heaven and the hun bug never gets that near the great white throne of God-F,X.
