 These well equipped rural high schools would become cen- ters of culture, social and com munity activity from which would "a diate sentiments of pro- gress and uplift heretofore un- dreamed of.
 The only reason that we do not have-at least shall not have in the future-good schools is because we do not want them. We have been deluding ourselves with the notion that we were too poor to pay the price of. better schools. Yet when cruel war throws it's shadow across our fair land, some of us have given to the Red Cross, the Y.M. c. A., and other beneficent institutions more in one year than we have paid in school taxes in three. Let none of us have given too much, few half enough. No true American would fail to SUD- port these noble organizations. We have opened our hearts and our purses because W have seen that it is our duty to do so.
 The average American is true and honest at heart. once the path of duty becomes plain. Surely we shall catch vision of the importance of better school advantages. We must realize that it is just as impor- tant to save our children from the thralldom of ignorance as 1t is to save them from the tyranny of the Germans,
 The states which have out stripped us in education, and most of them have, have all reached success through the route of consolidation
 Perhaps conditions growing out of the war would prevent an Immediate realization of this system. Just now the necessary buildings could not be had in the consolidated districts, but 1t is up to us to take an inventory of our assets. to plan wisely, and to be ready to take our places in the line when the or l der is given to go over the top.
