Every recurring Legislature digs
further and further into the rights

The present Legislature has up to
this time designated the times and

be no unnecessary delay In getting

AN IDEAL COUNTRY SCHOOL.

High ideals in sanitary require
ments for rural schools are proposed
in a bulletin that is distributed
through the United States Bureau OF
Education. The bulletin comes from
the Joint committee on health prob
lens in education, composed OF mem
bers Of the National Education Asso-
citation and the American Medical AS
sociation.
The general ideal proposed Is that
"the country school should be as sani-
tary and wholesome in essential par
ticulars as the best home in the com
munity."
1.-THE school should be located in a
healthful place" declares the commit
tee. Noise should be eliminated:
children should not be obliged to walk
farther than two miles or ride more
than six: Fairgrounds should be
ample and well drained; and the
school ground should include a real
garden OF experimental farm. with
trees and plants grouped artistically."
The school house, according to the
bulletin, should be as nearly hreproof
as possible Doors should open out.
ward. A small room for consultations
and emergency purposes, and one for
workshop. instruction in cooking and
preparing refreshments should be
provided.
In the matter Of ventilation and
heating, the bulletin gives specific
suggestions. Fresh air should be
provided through window board venti
lators except where the furnace OF
jacketed stove is used. in which case
adequate inlets and outlets should be
provided. Every school should have
a thermometer and temperature in
cold weather should be between sc
and 6S degrees Fahrenheit"
Light should be abundant "ThC
best arrangement says the bulletin
lis to have the light come only from
the left side Of the pupil and from the
long wall Of the class room. The
school room should receive direct sun.

the main windows should not face di,

windows dark. ones should be used
at the top of windows to control light

There should be no dry sweeping

Floors and furniture should be clean.

sTEFANssONs MESSAGE

Just now, says the Cleveland Leader, when some of Us are in clined to be downhearted-when faith in the future sometimes droops --there comes to Us a clear and ringing call from the north.
 It $ a bugle call as stirring as ever Quckened the pulses of weary soldiers and set their faces with re- neved courage to the front. It is the call of yuhialmar stefansson' crisp and cxhuirattng as the frozen north f,om which it comes, and it bids Us 70 be brave, and constant and of unshakabIe faith.
 The voice of Yilhjalmar Stefans- son came as from the dead. But it was not like that of the dead SteIaussOu started north through the Berin, straits early in 1914 on a voyage of Arctic discovery for the Dominion of Canada Word was r. eeiyed from him early in the following April when he started with three companions on long and dangerous journey oyer the ice. Months passed and no further udings came. \ year went by, and still no word. The world gave him up as lost and added another name to the roll of the heroic dead that sleep beneath the ice and snow be- yond the north polar circle.
 Bu. enc day last week a battered steamer from the Arctic came into the hartor of Nome. It carried message from stefansson. Was that message Q call for help? Was it wall of Encouragement? Was it a tale oG piteous suffering and heart breaking struggle? It was none of these things. Hardships he had undergone and for more than a year he had been ,uI off from man. kind ill the deadly Arctic sOlitudes, but be was joyful because of what he had accomplished and he looked forward eagerly to other successes. As he started away again oyer the frozen wastes he remarked that he might not return to civilization and safety for several years yet.
 And yet here are we-at least some of us-with only crumDled rose leaves to discomfort us, and We are discouraged, and of little faith. The message from Stefans- son was needed.
