Careless
with MOney

teaching some of our country schools
right now. 1t is quite possible that
she slid thru school called a High
school. Of course she can do the
multiplication tables, and so forth,
but what chance has she of instill-
ing a love of higher education into
the mind of your young child? The
acquisition of knowledge is becoming
a bigger and vaster task every day,
and the few who remain ignorant
appear twice as much so as they did
twenty years ago. The taxes should
never be too high to support a good
High school and efficient teachers !;
if not for your town alone, then for
a consolidated school. And a pre-
possessing High school building will
be a big factor toward inducing new
residents and industries to locate in
your city.

BOARD RAISES
TEACHERS PAY

In order to aid the pretty school
teachers of the city to defy the high
cost Of living, which has been making
a considerable hole in their slender
salaries each month, the Grand Rap
ids Board of Education voted Monday
| night to raise the minimum pay from
| $75 to $50 per month.
Some time ago the teachers pre-
sented petition for increased pay
and by granting this petition the board
effected the desired raise. At the
time of the presentation of the paper
there were some rumOrs current in
the city to the effect that the peda-
gogues had threatened to back up their
request with a strike in case the board
did not look favorably upon it. But
no such radical measures were used
and at the time of the presentation of
the petition President Guy o. Bah
cock declared that he was in favor of
paying the teachers all that was right
and proper and that he did not believe
that Grand Rapids, should pay any less
than other cities of equal population.
Previous to the meeting the Do
nestle Science class entertained the
members of the school board at six
o'clock dinner.

PROPER EDUCATION

Every town owes its young people q
good High School which offers them
courses, required and elective, that
are adequate to the needs of today.
Every young person needs some gen.
eral information on History, Gram
mar, Civics, Mathematics and Science,
whether his particular bent happens
to lie toward agriculture or engineer
ing. Tho it is possible to succeed in
a profession without a general back
ground of knowledge, it is fifty per
cent harder under those conditions.
