enthusiastically endorsed by the high

the common people as ten times as
quick and effective as whiskey, rock

remedy they have ever tried.
All drug stores are now supplied
with the wonderful new elixir, SO all
you have to do to get rid of that cold
is to step into the nearest drug store.

board, the appearance is more like
that of dilapidated barn or discard
ed tenement house. In the public
school houses of Tennessee today,
there are hundreds, yes thousands,
without adequate accommodations to
provide properly for those who are in
attendance. The sanitary conditions
are poor and no provisions for con-
veniences whatever beyond those that
nature has so kindly provided. But
these hindrances as serious and gross
as they are, fade into insignificance
when we raise the curtain and behold
the personnel of our teaching force.
Does Tennessee know the true con-
ditions here or is this fact confined to
the better and more experienced
grade of teachers and held in trust
by them as family secret? 1t makes
the cold chills run through the body
of all interested in child welfare
when they learn of these true con-
ditions. We sometimes wonder if I'M
der these circumstances it would not
be better for child to commune
with nature, drinking in the pure at
mosphere and developing strong
and robust constitution, with expe-
rience as teacher, that it would
be to have it sit in stuffy and I'M
kempt room with ignorance and stu
pidity as the instructor and guide.
Surely there are other problems fully
as important as the compulsory school
law that need our attention and of
these we must not lose sight. Let
us therefore speed the time when
these conditions may be so improved
The Parisian. (Paris, Tenn.) 1907-1962, 1919-11-21

that we may not feel embarrassed
to ardently support the rigid en-
forcement Of the compulsory law ev-
en- in the more remote rural districts |
and not be satisfied until all has been !
accomplished for which true educa-
ton stands.
The object of every successful en-
terprise is to get rid of all surplus
waste and dead material and the less
of this it has to carry the greater will
be its progress. Illiteracy is dead
weight to any intelligent and pro-
gressive people and the more of this
it has the heavier the burden, and the
heavier the burden the slower the
speed. Ignorance is dead weight,
a burden that the intelligent must
bear but even the load of the intelli-
gent has its limitations. For this
reason the less dead material it has
to bear the more new material it can
take On. Tennessee is striving dill
gently and earestly to rid herself of
ignorance-this dead material and
to accomplish she maintains her edu-
cational institutions-in sup
ported by the progressive element of
her people-and surely they have a
right to oppose in an organized way
any opposition to these progressive
ideals. No class Of peple have the
moral right to let their children waste
their time and opportunities for sue
cess in life and youth and force them
to become menace to society few
years later. The children are help
less. They know no better and for
this reason they have parents-teach-
ers if you please-to direct their
course otherwise our great Creator
would have had them spring into life
intelligent, skilled and fully developed
as Minerva from the brain of Jove.
But not so. How slow and delicate
is the process. See the infant for
weeks and months and even years as
helpless--yes, as helpless as an in
FAINT. Why? May / ask again, why?
Search for the answer and deter
mine the responsibility of the teacher
as well as the parent. Let us not
shirk our duty nor grow weary in well
doing for whatever man soweth that
shall he also reap. And when he COM
eth home he calleth together his
friends and neighbours, saying unto
them, Rejoice with me; for / have
found my sheep which was lost.
i | say unto you, that likewise joy
shall be in Heaven over one sinner
that repenteth more than over the
ninety and nine just persons which
needeth no repentance.

brain? If these are rights who can
deny the authority of the state to-
say that the child must conform to
such rules and regulations as will
make it possible for the state to car
ry out these inherent principles?
( If the state is expected to protect
the general welfare of her interests
and these interests are made up OF
the combined fortunes of her citizen
ry, surely she is entitled to voice in
not only the physical but the intellec-
tual development of that citizenry
and not only the right to say ne must
receive intellectual training but to do
less would be construed as not a
right even upon the part of the state.
AS we look upon this great question
we can see that it is but another step
in the direction of logical conclu-
sion. In other words, mathemati-
cal proposition.
The people make the state and for
this reason no state can rise above her
people, any more than stream can
rise above it's source. There are es-
sential qualities that must go to make
up a people such as vigor, honesty,
truthfulness, morality, sociability, in
dustry, skill and ability. To develop
these qualities to the degree of rec
ognition, the state has enacted the
various laws of sanitation, founded
her constitution on the moral law,
given protection to the various phas-
es of industry, placed premium upon
skill, and donated one-third Of her
revenue to the encouragement and
development of intellectual capacity.
After all this has been brought out,
can anyone question the right of the
state to adhere closely to these prin-
,ciples and throw every safeguard pos
sible around the development Of each
of these essential qualities? Why
deny the right of protection to one of
these qualities and at the same time
not only admit of but demand the
protection of the others?
There is no question as to the le-
gal right of a state enacting a COM
pulsory school law nor is there any
question about the truthfulness of
our subject-Your Child Is Safe
When All Are Safe-however it might
be we'll for US to stop moment and
analyze carefully the adverbial clause
of this subject. Under present con-
ditions are we justified at all times
in saying that all are safe? Let us
for moment look at the other side
of the question. When we consider
the question of public education and
especially the enforcement of the
compulsory school law, there are
three things that we must consider.
The equipment, the accommodation
and the personnel of our teachers.
There are many so-called school hous-
es that are absolutely void of equip
ment even to the extent of not having
as much as one respectable black

min sTA66A RD Studs

TINE longer life of Republic Tires is now
generally accepted.
,~a%
The greater anti-skid effectiveness of Stag
gard Studs is another quality for which these
tires have become famous.
The reasons for this longer life and better
non-skid qualities are easily explained.
The first is due to the Produm Process,
which toughens the rubber; the other advan-
tage comes from the long, oval studs, the
studs which scientifically give maximum
grip with minimum friction.
Their economy is so obvious that owners who
have once used Republic Tires are never
satisfied with any other make.
