WILKINSON ACCEPTS
FEDERAL POSITION

Many of Oklahoma's prominent men
in agricultural and educational work
during the past year have been called
to other states that were willing to
pay them better salaries. one Of the
latest in this list is John w. Wilkinson
who has been actively Identified with
the educational work of the state for
the past 20 years. On his retirement
from the editOrship of the Oklahoma
Farmer ne was elected dean of the
School of Agricultural Correspondence
Courses in the Louisiana University
and Agricultural College at a salary of
5000 month. His duties there will
begin sometime IN January This is
Il new position created under the pro-
visions OF the Smith Lever bill and
will be a branch of the federal work
of the United States department Of
agriculture.
Mr.. Wilkinson in a way may be re-
garded as one of the educational pio
necrs of this state He, with the as
sistance of Claude Weaver, now post
master at Oklahoma city, and Judge
j. b. Thompson, now Il member of
congress established the first free pub
lie school for white children in the
Indian Territory at Pauls Valley about
1896. II was the first experiment of
running school by taxation in the
Indian Territory, but it succeeded be-
cause determined men were behind
the project Other towns quickly fol-
lowed suit and in short ume public
schools were established all over the
Indian country.
As assistant state superintendent of
schools In the first administration, Mr..
Wilkinson took an active part in franz
ing the constructive school legislation
of oklahoma that has since proved so
satisfactory that it remains unchanged
today. He was Il strong advocate of
the teaching or agriculture and do
mcstc science in the public schools Of
the state and strongly insisted at all
times that the provisions of the state
constitution and the laws of OkIaho.
ma be faithfully observed by the
teachers i'm the public schools Mr. VIII

lege standards should be, and colleges
are trying more and more to adjust
themselves to these standards. This
is made easier by the constant i'm
proyement of the public and private
high schools and especially of the
public high schools.
"The elevation OF the standards OF
professional schools is due largely to
the demand for higher standards in
professional life. This has been ac-
celerated by several surveys Of pro
fessional schools made by some of the
great educational foundations"
Surveys.
"The demand for intelligent and
comprehensive surveys of the equip
ment. administration. and work of in
diyidual colleges and schools and Of
state, county, and city systems of
schools continues. The purpose of
these surveys is not to find fault, but
to make an intelligent accounting Of
the schools and their results to the
people who support them and are
served by them, and if possible TO
discover means of improving them
and making them render a fuller
measure of service Within the year
several very valuable surveys of this
kind have been made, and more are
now under way The reports of these
surveys already constitute a unique
and valuable body Of educational lit.

8 Same Here!''

Itta Bena Miss Times: The sentiment
is growing overwhelming in this State in
favor Of allowing the verdicts of our courts
in murder cases to stand, especially in cases
of white men for whose crimes there was
10 palliation whatever. Every body knows
how hard it has been in Mississippi to con-
vict white men who can hire good lawyers
and array some influence in their behalf.
Ii the Governor wants to hear some real
genuine applause the remaining months of
his administration let him take firm stand
against pardons for murders.
