II we take the school out OF the isolated
district OF only three or four pupils, we
deprive those children Of educational
advantages, for where is the parent
who is willing to send little children
away to be cared for by strangers dur
ing school year7 And even if they
were willing to do so the cost would be
more for three or four pupils than the
maintenance Of school. Consolidation
is impossible in some Of these districts
on account of the condition OF the
roads in winter.
When we take the school out OF the
rural community we stop the progress
Of that community. AS social center
the school means great deal to the
people. 1t is often the only place for
gatherings OF an educational or moral
influence, and shall we deprive the
people Of these? The rural school
with a wide awake teacher means a
great deal more than just the education
Of few pupils. In certain school
three years ago there were four pupils.
One of those is now becoming one of
the countys best teachers, another is a
junior in the Leavenworth high school
with an ambition to go through college.
Had there been no schools there that
year, the education OF those two would
have stopped at the seventh and eighth
grades. Was that money wasted7
When there is a greater effort to build
up the rural communities, and make
life more desirable then, there will be
fewer people f1ocking to the cities and
towns.
II we look closely into matters we
can find more evidence of waste OF
money. than that expended for the
rural school. Let US try to have the
right appreciation for things Of real
value. Good citizenship first.

The method Of swearing by the Bible
came into use at very early period,
practically with the establishment Of
courts of law in Christian countries.
1t was the ordinary method of swear
ing when America was settled by Eu-
ropeans and was naturally adopted
here. Oaths were common before the
Christian era, and any form may be
used that conforms to the religious be-
lief of the person to be sworn. He
brews are often sworn on the Penta-
touch, keeping on their hats, and their
oath ends with the words, $50 help me,
