tended the meeting of the Western Dis
trict Association of County Superin-

sion held Wednesday and Thursday.
And while only eighteen delegates reg

into Constellation that each one of
/. these delegates controls an average
of a hundred teachers, reaching thou
sands and thousands of white children
all through this section the import

ers' training department and A. s..
Brewer, general statistician of the
State school board. These men took
prominent parts in the meeting, and
the decision to increase The work Of
the moonlight" schools in this Sec
ton is due to a suggestion made by
Mr.. Joyner. The State superinten-
dent, after praising the work of the
..'mOonl+g +ghT" schools in the west, de-
clared that system would make the
schools still more beneficial and sug-
gested that each superintendent pick
out six schools in his county. deSig-
nate them as moonlight" schools. and
personally supervise the work of each.
He also suggested that each county
set aside a month to be known as

suggestion also met with heart. ap-
proVaI from the superintendent.

would set aside a certain month for

ignate six schools as moonlight

One of the very strong features of
the Federal loan act is the amorti-
2ation plan. by which the borrower
is required to reduce his debt little
each year after the first fivc-year pc
Rod. The loans can be made for
from five to forty years, but the in.
terest must be paid annually, as we'll

The farm loan act will mean bet

The bill is so drawn that its benefits
go only to the working farmer. No
man can borrow money under this
system unless he is going to use 1t
on the farm he is working. He must
spend the money either for buying
for paying off debt already upon
his farm; for the purchase of ferti
lizer, or livestock, or for the cree
ton of permanent improvements.
This section of the bill is one of
its very strongest points. 1t means
smaller farms and more intensive
farming. 1t means that the money
will be expended to make acres more
productive. 1t means that tenants !
will buy farms of their own, and it |

and the absentee landlord. 1t ought |

operates a small farm but who has
it well stocked. well fortified and |
well improved, is better citizen
than the man who skins a lot of
acres. And community that con-
tains lot of good, permanent farm
ers is better community than one
which is made up of tenants and
soil robbers.
