States receive nothing better than
cent of our population must do the
work, do the business, solve the prob
lens and pay the bills; they should
and can have something to say about
and they should be drilled and well
founded in the fundamental principles
of an education that will teach them
to do life's business. 1t may be signi-
an American citizen in school in the
year 1900 was 80 days, or about one
half year for the average school ) ear
is 15S days; the ACREAGE life of an
1857 days or a little more than six
years, and our United States commits
sioner of education says we can never
boast of our rural education system of
years, and he says this in the face of
the fact that the great problems of
this nation were solved by men who
were in the school room but SO days,
ty-fourth of the time the commissioner
recommends the school life should be.
1t is the judgment of your committee
that whatever there is wrong about
ficult to remedy for the entire mach
inery of our educational system is in
the hands of men of theory, honest in
their intentions, capable in their work,
bending every energy to increasing
salaries of teachers, lengthening the
life of the pupils in school and de-
creasing the number of children in the
school room. Seemingly they forget
learn the little things of life we'll" In
the last analysis, however, the people
themselves are to blame for it all;
they do not give the attention they
should to public affairs and especially
to the schools. Men and women of
affairs, who have made a success of
life, who have made a success of their
own private affairs, who pay the taxes
who have a human sympathy in the
child in the school room. must give
more time to public affairs and go to
the schools; they must make the sacri-
flee for the community they have help
ed to build and that has helped to
make them.

Montrose Investigates School Expense
After having gone over the matter
OF school expenditures in District No.
], City of Montrose. the committee ap-
pointed by the taxpayers for that pur
pose summed up its Investigations
as follows:
So far as the high taxes generally
are concerned. the committee does not
see much encouragement for relief. for
the whole tendency OF the times are.
higher salaries for public servants,
more commissions, more public office
holders. greater supervision over pri-
vate business and mighty little atten-
tion given to efficiency, and II our To-
cal levying boards reduce the rate OF
local taxes. our taxes are raised by
levying boards over which we have no
control. but 1t does seem TO members
of this committee. SO far as our school
is concerned, that the cost of our
schools could be lowered and the eff.
cheney and standard kept as high as
II Is now.
First. We find oar superintendent
of the high and district schools is paid

/ The Mountain States Telephone and Telegraph Co.

a salary of s1sI.7o 10 per month for
twelve months in the year, about three
months Of this time he spends in other
parts OF the state; rumor and the pub
lie press say he is teaching school and
drawing a salary there, while he is
drawing his salary here and dawing
another salary somewhere else, we
are paying a teacher to teach delin-
quent pupils and get them ready for
their grades at the beginning of the
next term OF school. What reason is
there that the superintendent should
not be required to do that work; We
are paying him for his time, why not
get the benefit of all of his time and
his best energies? The drawing of
two salaries is not tolerated in private
business. and is discouraged every
where in both public and private af-
fairs. and when ever 1t has been toll
Grated. II has bred insufficiency and
dishonesty, and as an evidence that
there is danger OF little Irregularities
creeping into our school affairs, the
superintendent in his report to the di-
rectors for the month of December.
The Delta independent., 1916-02-18

recommended to the board that the
railroad fare for himself and one 9TH
er teacher be paid out of the public
funds to attend teachers convention
to be held in some town in Northern
Colorado, and as an evidence that this
was not suggested by the board. Sec
retary Mcneil informed your commit.
tee that no attention was paid to the
recommendation.
Why should there be a principal in
each school building? The superin-
tendent teaches no classes, why could
he not visit and supervise each room :?
to that work. for the teachers are usu-
ally well qualified to look after their
own room, at least they should be. as
they are paid the highest salaries and
should be qualified to look after their
own room, and a general supervision
is all that is necessary. He has a car
and II is maintained out of the public
funds. why should he not use it for
their benefit.
The teachers salaries have all, or
nearly all been raised during the past
year from SIS to SIS per month: the
committee in conversation with Secre-
tary Mcneil. said to him,is there any
place these raises in salary will stop:
is there any limit to the expense of
our public schools? and he replied
there was and the limit had been
reached and that sS5 per month was
the limit that could be paid to grade
teachers. but when we called his at
tention to the fact that there were two
grade teachers drawing $50 per month
he explained that they were old teach
ers who had been here many years
and II that reasoning is correct, IL that
is good reason for advancing sal
aries, then they probably all will be
old teachers some day and that there
is no limit to the expense.
The tendency seems to be to reduce
the number of pupils in rooms, as sal
aries are advanced. where there used
to be from 40 to SO pupils, there are
now from 80 to 35. Whether this com
mittee has opinions on this subject. or
has no opinions, is not material. for
interviews with several old and sue
cessful teachers has convinced us that
where there is but one grade taught
in a room from 40 to so pupils can be
taught without lowering the standard
OF the school,
The committee is satisfied that the
State OF Colorado is not getting value
received for the money expended in
education. for It is costing the people
of Colorado 1854 more per annum to
educate pupil than the average cost
of educating a pupil In the United
States, $S4.5S more in Colorado than
the average cost In group OF the
Southern states; SIC more than in
