fDRMER SUPER|N TENDENT
'C|TY SCHOOLS CHARLES
EVANS PAYS TRIBUTE TO
KATE GALT zAN|ES
An 1nspirer of Young Life

After closest contact through long
service In and study of the public
school system of America one pro.
found conviction will at least pre-
vail and that Is that the office Of
county superintendent of schools holds
more possibilities of real good to the
whole people than any other school
position.
The County Superintendent
More than 60 per cent Of all the
people Of the America live still in
rural districts. That more do not live
there adding to the producing power
of the soil and relieving the conges-
ton and menace Of crowded centers
Is the most perplexing problem this
country has to solve. The exodus from
country to town and city has de-
pended and will continue to depend
on the rural public school more than
any other thing. Oklahoma is seriously
involved in this big business of bal
ancing its rural and urban life. The
country people Of this state know
the worth of education. Their children
are dear to the mand they pray, sac
rifice and plan for them through the
years. The country school according
to the reports Of the state superin-
tendent Of education. has the least
money to hire good teachers, secure a
good school building, purchase modern
apparatus and develop childs educa-
ton Of any school in existence. The
result Is the rural people must get
real, constructive, inspiring educators
to lead them out Of this unfair school
condition or they will leave the farms
The county superintendent Of schools
is the only one that can right the
wrong.
Carter County's Chance
Carter county Is one of the richest
counties In Oklahoma, its oil wealth
this year bringing 1t alone more than
100000 in taxes. With competent,
untiring. inspirational leadership to
the pupils and patrons of the county
the schools of Carter county should
in every nook and corner become mod
els OF efficiency, attractiveness and
happy living, not only in the state
but through the nation. Carter county
cannot afford to be satisfied with any
thing Jess than the best. 1t is going
to get q chance this year to choose
q leader for its county children that
will give 1t a power and prestige that
will reach even outside the state, It
will be interesting to see what it will
do August in accepting the willing
ness Of Kate Gait Zanies to serve
as its county superintendent.
A Genuine Woman
Ardmore and Carter county compares
favorably with the oldest and most
cultured centers of all the land and
ar surpasses most centers of western
Ind young states in possibilities Of
education. This Is due to the fine
quality of the children. The child is

the basis OF all educational growth
and power. The settlers Of Ardmore
and Carter county come of sturdy,
clean-booded and courageous southern
stock in most part with enough OF
thrifty and strong blood from other
sections to give a cosmopolitan finish.
This gives a splendid pupil to the
schools. Kate Gait as girl In 1907
was clear type of high-minded
Ardmore high school girl. She was
in truth genuine woman. She at
tracted the attention of the entire
school by her fine thought and her
more than common ability to make
her tongue say what brave heart
felt. She feared nothing. Plain, unas-
suming. her companions gave her the
leadership in class-work, in debate,
in editing the school paper and such
things because they liked her and be-
lieved that she stood for their honest
views. The city Of Ardmore came to
hear her speak one night in the
Methodist church and they grew Justly
was girl just like their children
who In their schools had found an
eloquence, poise Of soul and a lead
ership that was Of the highest order.
Inevitable to Take Place In Schools
After that she was invited into the
city schools as a teacher You get
the word invited. The board of trus-
tees and superintendent invited her
to take place as 1t was stated
around the table because such q home
girl will be an inspiration to dur
children. Let II be understood that
word inspiration" Is the teachers
and school leaders, mightiest value
Learning, energy, control, diplomas
oh, yes, of course, but all petty ard
worthless without the ability to make
the young heart open, glow with hope
and steel its will to achieve. Kate
Gait in the schools as a teacher pos
sessed this power equal IL not above
any teacher the writer has known.
Boys and girls of 7th and Sth grades
under her guidance thought like men
in ways that was the marvel Of educa-
tional critics visiting them. In order
to get Kate Galt's influence ex.
tended through the schools a depart
mental plan was developed and she
was sent out Of her room down
through other rooms. The result was
splendid.
Needed Inspiration
Afterwards she went into the rural
schools. This was good. Carter county
the whole county needed such insplr
alton, such teacher such a leader
for a rural people. Her boys and
girls out there made themselves felt
in every school enterprise OF the
county. Only last year her superin-
tendent said, Mrs. Kate Gait Zanies
has a wonderful influence for good
upon this whole city system" Thus
the story goes. There Is an old couplet
which runs:
Men are only boys grown tall,
Hearts don't change much, after all.
This woman asking the voters of
Carter county to let her lead their
children in the schools wherever she
may touch their lives will not change.
She was born honest, fearless. clear
hearted and potent and she will re-
main so. Ardmore and the county
should not cast vote against her
The memory Of and the loyalty to
their children demand that a poor
