Although olive oil as food and

largely by other vegetable oils, there
are one or two technical uses, wool

WHAT'S THE MATTER WITH
OUR SCHOOLS

is asking everybody, What
the matter with our schools?'
Yet at the meeting called fol
the high school building las
Saturday evening by the BoarC
Of Education, there were less
than a dozen question askers
sufficiently interested to altenc
the meeting and learn from the
Board the situation as faced by
the Board. Those who were
present learned that the Board
is facing Tie financial problem
produced by the public demand
ing more school for the avail
able funds than those funds
will purchase.
Last year the district expens-
es were several thousand dol
lars more than the income
This year the work planned by
the Board and already con
lracled for will cost more than
the estimated income Of the dis
trict. Either we must have less
school more taxes, or run be-
hind still further. A sure road
TO bankruptcy for either an in
dividual or a municipality is 70
continually run behind in The
operating expense account.
The financial problem facing
the Shoshone schools is not a
local condition affecting ShO-
shone alone. 1t is wide spread
and general condition facing
the public system of the whole
nalion. So there must be some
general fundamental cause
producing such a general con
dition which varies only in de-
gree in various cities and com
munities.
There is but one way to cor
rect am evil of any kind and !
that is to first learn the cause,
then prOcced To eliminate the |
cause.
What, then, is the underlying.
cause Of this widespread con
dilion which is surely forcing
all our public schools into eth
err bankruptcy or excessive lax
alton?
Here is the opinion of the
Journal. The public schools
have been diverted from their
original purpose into a chan
mel which has no measurable {
limit as to its possibilities for {
useful activities, and each add {
ed activity adds to the cosa of
operating the system. i
The function of the public a
school originally, was to build e
he mental and moral founda- r
ion upon which the life acliv- e
ty of the child might be erected c
Some 20 years ago there Il
lrose a demand for the schools

'progresivism" conduct the @

the work of the !,

The pay check idea grad
ually gained strength and ha
forced itself into the schools a.
the chief basis of action. Ey-
cry city high school has devel-
oped a consuming ambition &c
become a complete technical
training school. Every one OF
them added to its course Of in
slruction just as many of these
ulililarian departments as the
various Boards OF Education
could be induced, or cajoled to
adopt. Each new department
added hundreds Of dollars tothe
operating costs Of the system,
with the result that practically
every city school in the coun-
try is facing bankruptcy, hav-
ing reached its limit of taxation.
Many Of them have voted an
extra special tax. What will be
done when these special levies
are exhausted no one knows,
for there is absolutely no limit
to the possibilities of expansion
of the system. Every line of hui
man activity may demand its
own department in the public
schools. They prod us with all
forms of stimulating reasons
for exerting ourselves more
and more. We are told that all
our neighboring cities are out
stripping us, that our schools
are not up to standard. We have
even been tempted TO additional
expense by the bail of FEEDER

ourselves into believing that in |

to say nothing as TO their acting and

be said in detail. We refrain. A
nation founded as ours, working as

not be maintained until at least
ninety per cent of nations people
are heart and soul for that law. To
