RJRAI. SCHOOLS FOR COUNTRY
LIFE

Watchword-The country school OF
today for the country life of tomor-
row
Statement of Facts.-American life
can be no higher than American coun-
try life.
America is doomed if the city sets
the standard of life for the country.
When the country feeds the cities
at the top all goes well. but if ii feeds
the city at the bottom il is all wrong
for both city and country
Country population is decreasing in
all sections OF the country This will
not matter if the loss is at the bottom
Of society, but if the loss is ut the top
all is wrong
Children used to stay in the coun-
try school until they were well in their
teens; now they very generally leave
at the eighth grade.
Country schools used to be taught
by country girls and young men who
knew and loved the country. Now
they are too frequently taught by city
and town girls who come for little
experience and mourn for the city
while there. They usually go to the
town for the week end.
Schoolhouses in the country are less
attractive inside and out, less sani-
tary. and less well appointed and
equipped than city schoolhouses.
Parents are more critical of teach
ers more quarrelsome and mischief
making in country than in city
1t is more difficult for teacher To
remain in "A country school than in a
city school More of the teachers
time is wasted by out-of- school fric-
ton.
Farm arithmetic, farm geography,
farm school readers, country focused
literature must pervail in the country
schools.

SECY. BRYAN ON TIE LIQUOR
QUESTION

In Il letter published last week Sec
rotary Bryan has shown the demo-
cratic party how To take advantage Of
the prohibition wave without commit
ting itself to prohibition either MS a
national or as a state issue.
In states whore prohibition is an
issue, Secy. Bryan declares that his
party should support prohibition.
lie says; The brewer, the distiller,
and the saloonkeeper are in conspir-
acy against all that is pure In society,
against all that is sacred in the fam
ily, against all that is good in industry
and desirable in government. do not
mean 10 say that every brewer, every
distiller, or every saloonkeeper is con-
Sciously conspiring, but the business
in which these men are engaged is the
enemy of progress and civilization and
they are not in position to oppose the
influence that dominates it,
Those who represent the liquor in
terests are constituencies in their
methods. they debauch the individuals
through whom they act, and any par
~ TO which they dictate The demo-
cratic party can only hope for success
when IL gives expression to high ideals
and makes itself the champion OF the

raised, therefore. there is but one side
to il, unless the party is willing to sell
its soul for a support which cannot

THE BEST LETTER

You may write a thousand letters to
the maiden you adore.
And declare in every letter that you
love her more and more,
You may praise her grace and beauty
in thousand glowing lines
And compare her eyes of azure with
the brightest star that shines.
If you had the pen OF Bryon you
would use it every day
In composing written worship TO your
sweetheart far away;
But the letter far more welcome to an
