NOTICE TO WHITE
SCHOOL TEACHERS

Beginning when school opens in
January, or as near thereafter as
possible, the County Board of Edu-
cation have deided to give the ignor-
ant white men and women ar op-
~portunity to get an education.
So for n hour before or after
school, if the teachers will teach
them, if as many as half dozen will
attend, men and women of any age,
we will pay the teacher for hours
work, n and one-half times as
much as they are receiving for regu-
lar work by the hour. And should
they have as many as 20 scholars,
we will pay twice as much per hour.
Report of this work must be made
by the teacher monthly and draw
their pay at the end of the school
year through the County Board.
All this must not interfere in the
least degree with the work of the
regular school.

population.
The Tribune sneers at the chill
men" of the South. Does it not
know that these hill men" stepped
out in front of the ~grape-shot in the
Civil War to fight for freedom?
Does it know that nowhere in the
United State are personal morals
higher and gracious hospitality to the
stranger more universal than in the
hills of the South? Has it followed
the progress of Missouri communi-
ties peopled by this same stock, and
the records of the young people who
have gone out of these hills to the
universities of the land, and then to
honorable places in the nations life?
Did The anarchist outrages of q
quarter-century ago prove Chicago a
nest of anarchists, outside of the pale
of civilization and beyond all hope?
Chicago has, in one sole respect,
shown herself quick to respond to
the growth and improvement of the
South. That is in the realm of
trade. Chicago is acutely conscious
of the value of Southern dollars, anX-
ious to onserve trade relations with
the region whose "rotten industrial
conditions and rotten social ideas = =
illiteraey, blantant self-righteous-
ness, cruelty and violence" are so
far unworthy of the city of Lorimer,
Hinky-Dink, Bath-house John and the
rest of Chicago's municipal saints.
But Chicago serves notice to the
world through her press that her
commercial relations with the South
carry with them no hint of good
great men and great movements, of
knowledge of the harvest of the fields
Of civic effort, education, social adj
vance, literature and art, in which
the South has labored.
Chicago's relations with the South
are on a revenue basis only.
