SOUTH DAKOTA SETS PACE

ey LuRA PHILLIPS MARkLEY.

W @OOV
A statewide drive for better country
schools Is now under way In South Da-
kOta. The campaign, under the direc-
tlon Of State Superintendent Of Public
instruction Fred L. Shaw, In c0-opera-
ton with Governor Norbeck. the Com
mercial Clubs Of the state, the county
superintendent and others. began
October n and will continue until No
vember Is. Eighty lecturers are
taking part and between 1900 and
1900 meetings will be held, every
county in the state being visited.
Prof. r. G. Holden. director Of the
agricultural extension department Of
the International Harvester Company,
and 4 number OF the expert members
and lecturers Of his staff are render
ing every assistance possible. The
campaign slogan is: "Ar equal educa-
tional opportunity for ALL"
Superintendent Shaw is a nan of
Visions man Of action. He believes
that South Dakota should have better
country schools, that the country boy
and girl should have as good an OPP
pOrtunity for an education as has the
city hoy and girl. He deserves the
commentator and support Of every
Citizen.
Bringing the School Into the Home.
There has been q marked educa-
tional growth in recent years; yet, as
q rule. our rural schools do not meas
urB up to the demands OF the hour.
The reason Is not hard to find. Too
often they face the boy or girl away
from the farm instead Of toward the
farm. They teach only dead words in

stead Of living things; they teach out
Of mans books instead Of out of ma
lures books. There Is no connection
between the lessons Of the school room
and what the child secs at home, on
the farm. on the way to and from
school-no contact between what he
studies and the things which form a
vital part Of his life.
Must Maintain Interest.
1t is absolutely essential, first to Gre
ate interest in the thing taught; sec
Ond, to maintain that interest. Upon
these truths is based Professor Hol-
den's plan for vitalizing the teaching
Of agriculture in the rural schools.
Vitalized agriculture creates con-
tact between the school and the home.
It arouses the interest of the child in
his school work. This interest spreads
to the home. All members of the fam
lily become interested. The home and
the school r drawn together, be-
cause the home itself-the cornfield,
the alfalfa patch, the xorkshop-be-
comes part of the school.
The rotation plan" maintains in
terest. 1t is the biggest factor in vital
izing the school.
Not books alone are used in vital
ICED agriculture. Last year when the
pupils wanted to find out which was
the better, the one-ear stand Of corn
or the two-ear stand, they did not rely
upon words. They went into the field,
gathered the corn, and weighed It.
Their fathers and the neighbors saw
them In the field and became inter-
ested. The children talked about corn
at their homes In the evening. Many
went into their fathers fields and got
corn and weighed it. Even the younger
children who were not in the agricul-
ture class gathered corr and weighed
it. There was contact ~there-direct,
vital contact.
New Things Are Taught.
What is the rotation PLAN? 1t is
teaching a new subject each year
through four successive years. Last
year 1t was Growing Things"-corn,
alfalfa, oats, weeds, gardens; with
sewing and removing stains for the
girls. This year 1t is Making Things
rope tying and splicing, cement
work. farm tools, fly traps; with home
~conveniences and cold-pack canning.
Next year 1t will be Live Things"
In the following year it will be "Soil
and Home"
Every child in school knew what
: taught last year. Everybody at
home knew 1t. But this year the things
taught are new. The interest is main
tanned. intensified. The children are
not weighing corr this year. They are
splicing rope, making halters, mixing
cement. Is 1t dull this year? Is old
straw being threshed over? No. 1t is
vitalized agriculture. That which
stands out fresh to every one is MAX
ing Things"
Vitalized agriculture does not mean
simply the teaching Of agriculture. It

just as South Dakota 10 doing it. II
must first be put OF il q few counties
and only in 4 few districts in each
county. This makes 1t possible for
the state superintendent and county
superintendent to give the necessary
supervision to the work.
In the second year the work is ex-
tended to other counties and other dis
tricts. In the following years still
others are added until finally every
country school in the state is included.
Do the teachers so into this work
without special training? Do the
county superintendent have no train.
ing? No. Special training is given
every county superintendent and every
teacher and during the school year the
county superintendent supervises, helps
and encourages the teachers.
Is the work introduced independent
OF the community? No. A community
meeting is held. The work is explained
and the people always express their
pride that their district, their children,
have been selected to demonstrate the
success Of the plan.
All this is essential to success. It
means complete cooperation between
the home and the school, the parents
and the teachers. Whenever the
work has been undertaken in an intel
ligent, sympathetic way. there never
has been any opposition to operate as
a stumbling block in the way Of prog
ress.
The rotation plan for vitalizing the
teaching OF agriculture has vitalized
whole communities in Missouri. It
has been adopted in Oklahoma. 1t will
put life into the rural schools of South
Dakota.
