Newspapers and School Publicity

Again we remind the teacher
that the newspaper is the friend
and booster of the public school
and of education in general. Be
a subscriber to the paper nearest
home and encourage its circula-
ton, then you can consistently
solicit support that is always
gladly given. A recent number
of The School Board Journal con
tains the following editorial that
is to the point:
The newspapers are the
single most powerful element
which the community has for
urthe rins s4hool 4jeets
tas been we'll said that
eason f.r the RAPID spreat ur
ew educational ideaae and pro
'esses ai4 'oe genesai improYe
ment in the efficiency of the
schools 4ae to the press. No
matter what may be said of tn
harm done by a yellow press, the
fact remains that American edu-
cation would not have reached
its present stage Of efficiency if
it had not been for the constant
support which schools and school
men have had. from newspaper
editors and reporters.
It is true that newspapers
print the bizarre. the extreme,
the sseandalous and that fire.
quently legitimate school news
is minimized for some story of a
disgraceful crime or some uniM.
portant doing of a screen favor
lite. School news is generally
without thrills and relatively
coIorless, but every good news
paper will accept it eagerly and
handle it with a fair degree Of
accuracy.
In many cases neglect OF
new school is not to be charged
to the papers but to the school
officials who are antagonistic to
the papers, secretive concerning
school affairs, or tactics and even
discourteous to newspapermen.
It may be taken as an axiom
that newspapermen are fair and
honorable and that they may
well be taken into confidence by
school officials. The individual
newspaperman may be a young
cub or a hardened old timer,
careless in dress and manner,
and even a trifie lacking in re-
spect for the personal dignity Of
the school Office. He will. how.
ever, quickly respond to fair
treatment and will appreciate
the educators recognition of the
importance of the paper he rep.
resents. He is not a trained
educator and he tries to see
school news through the eyes Of
the average newspaper reader.
If due allowance is made for
these facts and school happen
ings and educational innovations
are reduced to popular language,
better results will be obtained
for both reporter and the schools.
mo community can be intel
responsive to education
unless it is informed The bet
ter the newspapers are aided BY
school authorities in gathering
and publishing school news, the
better will be the schools. Z" The

LAW ON D. C. COMMISSIONERS
Question of Residence Always
Most Important Issue.

The organic act providing "a per-
manent form of government for the
DISTRICT OF Columbia" approved June
II. 1878 makes the following defini-
ton of eligibility for appointment fo
the Office of civilian District Commits.
Sioner:
The two persons appointed from
civil life shall. at the time of their
appointment. be citizens of the
United States and shall have been
actual residents of the District of
Columbia for three years next be-
lore their appointment. and have
during that period claimed resi-
dence nowhere else"
This provision has been invoked on
several occasions in the past to bar
from the Office of District Commits
soner persons who have been other-
wise well qualified for that position.
For instance. some years ago former
Representative ]. j. HemphiIl ~
South Carolina, upon his retirement
from Congress. took up his residences
IN the District ana practiced law here.
He had been chairman of the House
District committee. was a strong adyo-.
cate of the development Of the Ma
tional Capital apd took a keen inter
est in the local welfare
Ills HIS name was proposed and was,
as Commissioner. That appointment
would have been altogether accent
able on the score of Mr.. Hemphill's
qualifications. But the fact was noted
that he had retained his legal voting
residence in South Carolina and had
cast his vote in that state within the
period prescribed by the law. In con-
sequence his nomination was not sent
to the Senate.
Newman Cnse Recalled,
Oliver p. Newman was SELECTED bv
President Wilson as District Com
missioner. and his nomination was
challenged on the ground of a failure
to comply with the residence oualifi-
cation of the organic act A citizen
of the District, after Mr.. Newman had
been confirmed against protests filed
with the Senate. entered suit FOR
custer on the ground that Mr. New
man had claimed residence elsewhere
within three years prior to his an.
pointment. The jury in the trial court
rendered verdict of ineligibility. ),
The case, however. was carried to
the Supreme Court of the United
States, which ruled that the pro-
testing citizen was incompetent In
the law to bring suit inasmuch as he
was not a party having the 'fnterest1
in the Office which the law reSsiEed
as the basis of such q challenge. The
highest court did not pass upon the
facts in the case concerning which
a jury had delivered its verdict,
