'BACK-TO-SCHOOL"
MEETING AT MILLER
Many Young People Have Dropped
School Work During War-Par-
ents Asked TO Attend Meeting

Miss Eleanor Hunter of the Chill
dren's Bureau. U. S. Department OF
Labor, will speak on the Back-to-
School Drive at 1880 on Thursday,
March 81 In
Miss Hunter has just completed a tour
OF Arkansas where she has been talk
ing III the interests Of the Rack-to-
School Drive which is being conduct
ed by the Children's Bureau and the
local Child Welfare Committees of the
Council. of National Defense.
THE Drive has taken hold amaz-
ingly," said Miss Hunter. at is now
, going on vigorously in SO states, the
District of Columbia, and New York
City The need Of such a drive is en-
Fphasized by some figures recently
made public through the Children's
Bureau. They reveal ar alarming
percentage of illiteracy among certain
| groups of working children. More
than on~e-fourth of the 1886 children
between Ia and 16 to whom the Chill
drens Bureau issued age certificates
i'm the administration of the former
Federal Child Labor Law could not
sign their names legibly. In 5 states
where Federal certificates were issued
1879 white children between IA and
is were certificated. or these chill
dren SO per cen had not reached the
| eighth grade in school. Ninety-seven
per cent OF the 1855 colored children
who received certificates had not
reached the eighth grade. South Da-
| kota in 1910 had 1880 inhabitants 10
| years OF age and over who could
neither read nor write; North Dakota
had 1900.
"The first objective of the Back-to-
School Drive" Miss Hunter contin-
ued. "is to get the children who have
left school prematurely for work to
return. and TO urge the children now
in school to stay there and complete
their courses. The second objective
is to- make the various committees
realize that education pay moi only
the child but also the State in dollars
and cents. To the child, education
means the chance for better jobs and
more wages; to the State, it means
increased production and better citi-
Gems"
"As a result of the Back-to-School
Drive communities are looking up
their child labor and compulsory
school-attendance laws, and many are
finding them inadequate or poorly en-
forced. and are taking steps to have
them bettered. At the present time
the majority of the AZ states whose
legislatures are in session during 1919
are considering further laws for child
welfare"
Miss Hunter is a graduate of We'll
lesley, and was a member of the re-
| search department of the Chicago
School of Civics and Philanthrophy in
1917-191S For some months she was
vocational advisor to handicapped
children in the Chicago public schools.
During this time she made a study Of
the special problems confronting the
handicapped child who leaves school
for work, and of the opportunities in
industry open to him. Miss Hunter
has also been actively concerned in
the administration of the child labor
law in Chicago.

HAIL INSURANCE
Law EXPLAINED
Hand County Placed In First District
Insurance VIII Cost 35c Per
Acre

South Dakota is the most progress
sive state in the Union. 1t is purely
IN agricultural State and looks al
ways to the interests of that part of
her people.
In 1915 there was enacted the first
workable Bank Guaranty Law ever
placed upon the Statute books; in
1917 the first workable Rural Credit
Law ever enacted was written, and
the session just closed placed on the
Statute books a Hail Insurance Law
that is to provide hail insurance to
the farmers of the state at actual cost.
Since 1909 the people Of the state have
been asking this kind of legislation
but on account of the Constitution
such a law could not be passed until
the last session after the Constitution
had been amended by the people at
the election on November 5th, 1918.
The farmers of the State have had to
pay formerly for hail insurance all the
way from ~ to 1914 per cent, and in
1918 the farmers Of the state paid in
premiums ST. ,217.27 and received in
losses paid $659, 1894 or a gross pro-
fit in favor of the Companies writing
hail insurance of 1890. 924.12, for the
year. This latter mount under
the state hail law would have been
deposited to the credit OF the farmers
of the state in the office of the State
Treasurer i'm the Hail Insurance Fund
as a reserve fund for the payment of
future losses. The insurance COM
panies made money in every county
in the state but six, I'm Hand County
the farmers paid for hail insurance
premiums $27.O17.67. the company
paid in losses $5,393.43, making a
gross profit for the companies of $21,-
677.2
Under the hail law passed at the
recent session of the legislature the
state purposes to insure the farmers
for a maximum of $1,000 per acre at
the rate of from 3A per cent in the
most favorable zones to Az in the
ones most liable to hail losses, or for
less than half the rate formerly paid
by the farmers of the state for hail
insurance. The furnishing of hail in
-uropca IN tho 20 rp,arc OF ooct will he
the mean of increasing the value of
very acre OF agricultural land in
South Dakota. Certainly any land
buyer who knows that he will be able
20 get hail insurance at actual cost
will be willing to pay more for land
than otherwise
The law provides hat the agricul-
'ural land benefited pay for the pro-
'""tiOn provided and 1t is made the
duty Of the Assessors to list every
acre of agricultural land in the coun-
", all farm land must be listed by the
assessor and the Assessor will leave
blanks with the farmer that can be
filed by the farmer with the County
Auditor and by use of the proper
',lanks the insurance may be reduced
TO $500 per acre Or he can exempt
himself from the provisions of the
law entirely. or. should he so desire.
can insure only a part of his crop
For t,ckvao .h1.,Il H. c- 1890
everything but his flax he. can do so.
Certainly every farmer in the state
should avail themselves of protection
against hail when they can get this
protection at actual cost.
