Barksdale Hamlet. of Christian
County, the leading candidate for the
Democratic nomination for Secretary
OF State, declares for Kentucky a sew
en- months school term. with a per
capita of $5.25, an increase of 75c
over last year
The establishment of seven
months school term with the increase
Of the teachers salaries, and without
an increase of taxation, is the greatest
| educational achievement in the history
| of Kentucky, as well as the greatest
| financial achievement. The man has
| taken rank as an expert-a wizard
of finance among the leaders of the
Commonwealth.
When he went into Office four
years ago, there was a deficit of sew.
eral hundred thousand dollars in the
treasury of the school fund. He re-
adjusted completely the system of
school finance in such a way as to
pay off the deficit; to increase the per
capita from $500 to 1925; to pay the
teachers promptly every month";
thing never done before in the his
tory of Kent1cky; and to accomplish
the end for which he has labored for
eighteen years. that of giving to the
people of Kentucky a permanently es-
tablished school system with a term
of seven months.
While State Superintendent of Pub
lie Instruction, he has established new
presidents, serving personally as a
leader in the field. He has given to
the people OF Kentucky a school free
and accessible to every child, in
every rural district in Kentucky. His
personal leadership has brought about
improved facilities In the Office OF
every County Superintendent in Ken
lucky.
He secured a rational and effective
compulsory attendance school law, by
| which the attendance in the public
i schools of Kentucky has increased
more than 35 per cent, placing Ken
lucky in the foremost ranks of the
| States of America for educational ant
industrial progress.

Bird Calls and Their Names.

Bird Calls ana Iheir Names.
Most of us know the chickadee when
we hear him calling, over and over,
"Chick-a-dee, dee dee. Chick-a-dee. dee.

whistling note, phoebe, Phoebe" We
are likely TO mistake him for the
phoebe bird. The chickadee stays In
the North in winter, and the phoebe
does not come North till the early
spring. The phoebe bird sings its
name over and over. a very sweet but
penetrating sound. The peabody bird
says, Peabody. peabody. peabody"
over and over, In rather senseless
way as II he went round In a circle.
Another bird that sings his name 10

says Poor Bob White!" His notes
go up and down. and are stronger than
the notes OF the smaller birds and may
be heard at long distance. OF course

not only of Kentucky, but for many
other States.
He has accomplished the establish
ment of county high schools accessi-
bly, located in every county In Ken
lucky.
He has stood for and promoted the
employment of and accomplished for
the schools of Kentucky the services
of teachers of the highest scholarship,
character and personality.
Under his administration of the pub
lie school system of Kentucky, there
has been a vital cooperation of all
factors looking to the improvement of
Kentuckys industrial conditions.
He has lent his best efforts to the
building of good roads and to secur-
ing the consolidation of schools where
ever and whenever practicable, that
the greatest good might be accom-
plished at the least possible cost to
the people.
One of the chief functions of the
Office of Secretary of State is men,
bership on the State Board of Educa-
ton. In this capacity he will cop-
tinue to give his best efforts and serv-
ices to the cause of education. :,
AS a member Of the State Board of
Valuations and Assessments, as a
member of the Sinking Fund Com
mission, and as member of the State
Printing Commission, Mr.. Hamlet
will serve the people and conserve
their finances as he has done in the
management of the school funds of
the State, and If the people will elect
others like him on these boards, Ken
lucky will soon be out of debt and
her finances be in most prosperous
condition.
A young man at the age of thirty
six, having served faithfully for four
years in one of the most important
positions of trust in the gift of the
people of Kentucky, he now seeks the
endorsement of his party If the peo-
pie think he has served them well. If
his record has been good, if his serv-
ices have been worth anything to the
State Of Kentucky, then the people OF
: Kentucky will certainly elect him SEQ
