Parties Back Movement.

Both political parties in Kentucky
have proposed through a plank in
their platforms to take the office of
State Superintendent out of politics
and to place it upon a professional
basis and to make it possible for a
Superintendent to succeed himself.
The administration of our schools
ought not to be political issue. The
rights of our children do not admit
of any division of opinion. Demo
Gratis and Republicans alike believe
that the Kentucky child should be given
a school system worthy of that child.
The two political parties do not diff
fer in their attitude toward schools
any more than they differ in their at
titude toward the Ten Command
ments. The adoption of the proposed
Constitutional Amendment will unite
the two parties in practice even as
they are now united in principle in
their support of schools. The adOp-
ton of the amendment will give the
Legislature the power to fix the term
Of the superintendent will give the
Legislature the power to prescribe
the manner of his election; will give
the Legislature the power to place the
Office upon a professional rather than
on a political basis. The State Super
intendent is the only school admins
traitor in Kentucky that is now po-
litically elected. The President Of
the University is appointed by COM
petent board because of professional
fitness alone. The Presidents of the
two Normal Schools are appointed in
the same way. The superintendent
of our city schools are appointed by
boards because of demonstrated fit
ness not because of political affilia-
ton. County superintendent are ap-
pointed again in the same way.

Is Not a Political Issue.

There is no opposition to the
amendment anywhere. 1t has been
unanimously endorsed by the Ken
lucky Educational Association. The
Kentucky Educational Survey Com
mission insists that we cannot hope
for any great improvement in our
schools until this amendment has been
adopted The Federated Womans'
Clubs of Kentucky have endorsed it.
Rotary Clubs and Boards of Trade
and Chambers of Commerce through
out the state have endorsed it. Both
political parties have endorsed it. The
Legislature that proposed it did so by
the votes of the members of both par.
ties. 1t is not a political issue. II
is not proposed in the interest Of this
party or that party; it is proposed
solely in the interest of the Kentucky
child. For the sake of the Kentucky
child, the Kentucky voters should
make the vote in favor of the amend.

woman in Kentucky should read it
most carefully and then act definitely
when voting on the two amendments
to the Constitution at the November
election:
Education in Kentucky in the past
has suffered more from lack Of a
definite policy and a continued pro-
gram than from any other single
cause Every four years administra-
ton of our schools is changed. Under
the law no State Superintendent can
succeed himself. Our school laws are
q sort of legislative crazy quilt. Each
succeeding Superintendent adds a
patch or two that may or may not
harmonic with the whole. No bust
ness can succeed if its policies are
changed every four years. The ad-
ministration of schools is the States
biggest business. In no department of
government is a permanent program
more necessary than in the admins
tration of schools. Kentucky will not
have better schools until she has bet
ter administration of her schools
kentucky will not have better admin,
istration of her schools so long as she
has politically elected Superintendent

the people. In education Kentucky
ranks forty-fifth among the states.
Until recently the attendance in our
public schools was 81 per cent. Our
teachers are not only the most poorly
paid but they are the most poorly pre-
pared of any state in the Union with
the possible exception of two. 1t is
not because Kentucky children cannot
be taught; it is not because Kentucky
teachers lack capacity to learn or de-
votion to teach; it is simply because
children and teachers alike have not
been given a chance. No, man who
loves Kentucky, who loves Kentucky's
childhood can be satisfied with Ken
tucky's condition educationally. Moth
ing has contributed to this condition
more largely than lack of competent,
conscientious, continued, educational

But the housewife who has

the heaped bushel varies with
the price of the product and the
weight bushel varies widely in
different states,
A bushel of sweet potatoes is
46 pounds in the Dakotas and 90
pounds in Maryland.
A bushel of tomatoes is DC
pounds in Oklahoma and GO

A bushel of unshelled green
peas is % pounds in Massachu-

IOlH . DdHy IlCi
More teachers from Maury county
are attending summer schools and
taking additional training to better
fit them for discharge of their obli
cations as teachers, than ever before
in the history of the county. 1t is stat
ed by Prof. John P. Graham, county
superintendent of PUBLIC instruction
that already more, than fifty teachers
in the public schools of the county
have either taken or are taking sum-
mer courses at some standard school
of instruction for teachers.
When Superintendent Graham, at
tended the meeting of the county SUI
perintendents of Middle Tennessee at
Murfreesboro recently he found not
less than thirty.four teachers from
Maury county enrolled in Middle Ten
nessee Normal for the six weeks sum-
mer course. Only Giles county in this
section of the state had a larger
number. In addition to the teachers
from the county at the Middle Ten
nessee Normal there are dozen or
more at Peabody College for teachers
and several have been taking the'
course at the summer school at the
University of Tennessee. 1t is be-
lieved that altogether, before the
schools again begin their work that
not less than sixty teachers in the
county will have taken this training.
The zeal with which the teachers
are. at their own expense, better pre-
pairing themselves for their profess
sion is due, it is believed, largely to
the increased appreciation that the
public has shown by giving them bet
ter pay More and more the men and
women in this profession are coming
to look on it as life work and are
preparing themselves accordingly in
stead of simply using it as stepping
stone to something better. 1t means
that Maury county schools are going
to be taught by better prepared teach
ers than ever before and that will
mean better schools. The teachers
have been highly commended for their
efforts to become better prepared
since all this is done at their own ex-
pense.
