that through the education of the
youth of the nation regarding the
evil effects of the use of alcoholic
stimulants, the public school could
be made wonderful weapon against
intemperance. Through her efforts
the teaching of hygiene, with especial
attention to the evil effects of the use
of alcoholic stimulants upon the hui
man system, was made compulsory in
the various states Of the Union, and
from the time that the youth of the
nation, now educated in the laws Of
health, became old enough to take
part in the affairs of government
there has been a constant decline in
the liquor traffic resulting in national
prohibition.
The public school is the keystone
in the foundation of our government.
1t is the bulwark of the fundamentals
of democracy, for without the educa-
ton of it's people in patriotism, loyal
ty, integrity, morality, unselfshness
and the principles Of right and justice
in dealing with others in the affairs
Of life, all those vital problems that
affect its social, political and eco
nomic welfare can never be met on
the ground of equal rights and JUS
tice to all, and no government can
perpetuate itself that does not meet
it's problems on this ground.
Not only must the youth be trained
in that sense of duty that will make
these principles part Of him. woven
as it were into the moral fiber of his
very being, but also in him must be
developed that force Of character that
will cause him to obey and defend
the dictates of this sense of duty.
A river cannot rise above its
source, neither can our government
rise above the education of the ideals
of its people, and our schools will not
rise above the efficiency and ideals of
those to whom is entrusted the train.

ment will not rise above those who
are training the youth for citizenship.

The great big work of the public
school is in training the rising gen.
eraton in the ideals of American cit
izenship, and as an example of the
great power of the public school in
shaping the thoughts and actions of
the American people we have only
to refer to the wonderful growth Of
the sentiment against all alcoholic
stimulants in the United States. For
years various societies have fought
this evil. For this purpose political
parties have been organized, but with
little or no result in the suppression
of the liquor traffic.

TAXPAYER DISCUSSES
COMBINED SCHOOLS
YELM RESIDENT TELLS HOW
CONSOLIDATION WORKED
IN HIS DISTRICT

AS the father of five school chill
dren and also the heaviest resident
taxpayer in Consolidated District No.
sos, 1 feel qualified to discuss the
subject of school consolidation.
1t gives country children the slim
illus of competition, and also high
school opportunities, but these ad-
vantages are accompanied by undue
expense in many cases.
Our consolidated district was
formed from three old districts: the
Moorehead, John Longmire and Bald
Hill schools; and is known as the
LaCamas district. 1t is about 10
miles long and is situated in the
northeast corner of Thurston county,
consequently the roads are poor and
transportation difficult
The voters here were induced to
consolidate by various misleading
statements. The estimates for the
cost of a new schoolhouse were based
on pre-war rates, and we were told
that a new broom building would
take the place of the three old school
houses, thus saving one teachers sal
airy. The estimates for high school
attendance were based on the as
sumption that all the eighth graders
would continue through high school.
This is our third winter under the
consolidated school system. Our
school consists of q pupils and is
housed in an expensive 4-room build
ing. OF Is children at or near high
school age, two have married, nine
have gone away or left school, two
more moved in but one of them is
away, and four are in high school.
These four occupy room planned
for 80 or 40 eighth grade and high
school pupils. There is no eighth
grade this year.
We have had three teachers ever
since the first month of consolidation
We were promised yearly bonus of
$500, but as we never have had more
than six or seven high school pupils.
we did not receive it. Our district
is heavily bonded and on the verge of
bankruptcy.
Speaking from experience, l would
advise those who are contemplating
school consolidation to think twice
before they are misled by lot of
alluring figures which prove nothing
at all. It is not wise to do much
building under present prices for ma
terials and labor at present cordi-
tons
Consolidation gives the children
better educational opportunities, but
to- force city schools upon thinly
settled region is like compelling a
workingman to copy millionaire.
The money for big schools in remote
until we learn that extravaganza is
as great a sin in handling public as
we'll as private funds, there will be
no relief for the taxpayers.
Many believe that good schools
will attract settlers. but one Of the
first questions would-be purchaser
asks is about taxes. and fine schools
invariably means bonds and heavy
taxes.
The heartbreaking experience OF
the city of Olympia in the early nine
ties should be an example to everyone
of the way things work out in prac
tice. L. A. REICHEL,
