OKLAHOMA NEEDS HIM AGAIN

While the policy Of limiting state
officers to two terms is democratic
and, generally speaking, should be
adhered to, there are certain offices
requiring special experience and
technical knowledge, which may well
be made an exception In the case
OF an office which, properly speak
= ing, is non-political, the argument in
favor of waving objections to a
third term becomes compelling one
These observations apply with par
ticular force to r. H. Wilson, who
for the past seven years has been
at the head of the public school sys-
TEN Of oklahoma Mr.. Wilson has
signified his willingness to accept
the office again and he should re-
ceive the nomination without a con.
test. Since he went on the job as
state superintendent the public
schools of the state, including rural
and city schools, as well as the high
er institutions, have gone forward in
a manner that has attracted national
attention till today Oklahoma stands
in the front rank in education. Dur
ing these seven years Mr.. Wilson
himself, no less than the school sys
tom to the progress Of which his en-
e1gy and ability have so vitally con-
tributed, has grown steadily n his
grasp of the problems confronting
him as an educator, demonstrating
his capacity for dealing with them
in the practical manner which pro.
duces results. No man, regardless
OF how well qualified he might be in
a general way without his experience
in the duties Of state superintendent
could step into his place and carry
on the work with equal efficiency.
AL educational authorities are agreed !
that when a teacher makes good in /.
his or her position it is to the in.
terest of the school that he be re-
tanned as long as possible and the
same logic applies to the man who I
j. given the general management Of
the schools of state. Efficiency is
the one object to be Sought in such
a matter.
During the year that has elapsed
The Chickasha daily express. (Chickasha, Indian Territory [Okla.]) 1899-current, 1918-05-01

since America became a participant
il the world war, Mr.. Wilson has
been incessant in his activities for
the promotion Of patriotic sentiments
and service, seeking to make every
school house in the state a seething
center Of patriotism, and his efforts
In this direction have been remark
ably successful He has planted the
Win-the-war determination firmly in
the hearts Of the school children and
teachers Of Oklahoma, and the good
work which he has been doing is
still going Mr., Wilson believes that
the public schools should be made a
powerful agency in the support Of
the government, contributing directly
to the triumph Of the nations arms,
and he~is laboring constantly with
this end in view. There is nothing
to be gained by replacing him with
an upuied man NJ such a critical
time The educational interests Of
the state, as wen as national welfare,
VIII be subsarved by keeping him at
the helm.

LEND TO THE GOVERNMENT

Lend more than you thought you
could.

done all you can, there is always a
chance to do little more.

not yet filled for you will find that
you can still add a quart or so of

round or more of sugar; and when
the pail is full to the brim there is
