writer of that letter, as boy, to think
that way? To insert bitter thoughts
and mean ideas in your neighbours
mind is about as bad a piece of wick
edness as can happen. Love your
neighbor" is a command as much for
the non-Catholic as it is for every
Catholic. Whoever taught that boy
to think mean of Catholics was an en-
envy both to God and the American
nation. Catholics fought for the
United States in the Revolution, Civil
war ION both sides), Mexican war,
Spanish war, and would fight for the
U. S. in any coming war.
The chief difficulty about all these
religious controversies is there is not
enough truth, and there is too much
bitter thought and mean speech. 9th

THE PUBLIC SCHOOLS. - The
school fund deficit referred to by w.
H. Wallace in The Day Book looks
like one more step in the plan to,
make as ineffective as possible our.
public schools. While not connected

terested in them, as all citizens
should be, and for some years past
have watched the antics OF the board
of education as closely as l could.
The course of study for the gram
mar grades ought to be made the sub
ject of serious thought by. every. pat
ron of the public schools. It is a
masterpiece, if lack of thoroughness
is the result sought. Some of the
textbooks are unfit for use in any
school Early in 1914 the Record
Herald published several articles an
alyzing and exposing the weaknesses
of the course of study, also some of
the most undesirable textbooks, nota-
bly, the text on English. The inten-
ton was evident to go through the
list of poor textbooks, but the article
suddenly ceased, and one could only
infer that sufficient pressure had been
brought to bear to "ca1 off, the Her

tracing from the efficiency of our

4-CUtting short the school year
to the detriment of the children for
whose benefit the schools are main
tanned, and breaking faith with the
teachers who have every right to the
time and pay for which they are en-
gagged.
So far as l can learn, no analytic
statement has ever been published
showing the exact disposition of
funds by the board of education. The
peculiar part is that funds are always
available for anything the board
wishes to do, even for pleasant junk
cts abroad by the highest-salaried
members of the force, who are the
most able to pay their own expenses. .
p, Let the taxpayers insist that their
money shall be used only for what
makes for efficiency in the teaching
Of their children, and this certainly
includes the normal school year of
ten months and the paying of the
teachers what is justly due them.
Now that we have a free press in
The Day Book, will not some of those
who know give US information on any
matters concerning the schools that
the public should know in order that
it may insist on abuses being righted?

DUBUQUE HAVING

there is intimation the whole affair

declared by the county board of super

SIGOURNEY SCHOOL
NEEDS MORE ROOM

SiSourney, Jan. 27.-The Sigourney
school board is in Quandary on &C.
count of insufficient room for schools.
One years ago the board completed a
new north ward building and 1T was
thought then that the new building in
addition to the other two buildings
would afford sufficient room to accom-
modate the school population for many
years to come. Under the law enacted
by the last legislature the school
board this fall installed domestic
science department in the high school
at a considerable expense to the dis
trict. Now it is found under the same
law the board must also install manual
training after July /. The present
school buildings are now occupied to
their full capacity and there Is no
room suitable for this purpose that can
be leased in the city. So the board
is up against the proposition Of build
ing another building TO accommodate
the manual training department.

SUPERINTENDENT IN
WARD LINE RULING

Iowa Falls, Jan. 27.-Miss Blanche
Stoddard county superintendent OF
schools has announced her decision in
the appeal from this city, and advised
President A. J. Bowman of the board
of education that she had sustained the
action of the board. When school
opened last fall, the school board OBJ
liberated the ward lines and pupils
were allowed to go to the north ward
school or to the central school. So
many attended the new high school
building that it was found necessary
to remove two of the teachers and
some Of the seats from the, north ward
school to the vacant rooms in the new
school building. Exception was taken
to this action by several patrons liv-
ing near the north ward school and
an appeal was taken to the county
superintendent by these people.
hearing was had several weeks ago and
Miss Stoddard reserved her decision
until later date. The board felt that
it had acted for the best interests of all
concerned and defended it's action at
the hearing on the appeal and it ap-
pears that the county superintendent
thinks the action of the board was
consistent under existing conditions.

lieving the congested and inadequate
condition Of Madrid's present school
facilities the board of education hasde-
cided to call special election for the
purpose Of securing funds for the cree.
ton of new building or an addition
to the present one. The board has as
yet proceeded no farther in the devel-

on putting the matter up to the voters

Des Moin.s, Jan. 27.-The senate
ways and means committee Will meet
this afternoon to take UP informally
the matter of revenue for the state and
to consider the millage taxes and
similar matters. The governor and
the board of education have recon-
mended that the millage taxes that
have long been levied for the perma-
nent improvements at the state edu-
cational institutions be reduced to cor
respond with the increased valuation
of property in the state. 1t will be
the duty of the committee to plan the
bills for such reduction. 1t may be
that because of this reduction, there
can be and will be made some other
slight millage taxes to meet the nee
essities of the state.
Quite a number of tax measures are
before the legislature already. There
Is q bill to abolish the special rate on
moneys and credits so that this class
of property will pay as other classes.
A bill has been presented to permit
corporations owning stock In other
corporations to deduct so as not 10
make a double taxation on some or the
corporation stock. There is bill to
increase the exemptions as to FLOODED
live stock. The bill for tax commits
sion will be presented in due time
and will receive some consideration.
The fact that the state now has virual-
" tax commission, but without the
power necessary for 1t to get the real
facts, is of much importance in this
connection. A bill for terminal taxa
ton of railroad property separate from
the general systems is ready. 1nen
there ia the amendment to the consul
tution which looks to an adjustment so
that such property as railroad properly
will be taxed by the state alone anu
there win be no general state tax levy.
All these things give the ways ana
means committee material for real
work.
Mr.. Hinshaw. state game warden,
