Shall the present efficiency and standards of
education in the Ordway schools be maintained?
This question is the issue in election.
Monday, May LIST. Mr.. Carpenter who is candi-
date director makes this question the issue by
of his support of resolutions asking the Board
to reduce the salary of every teacher 80 per cent.
Since the salaries of teachers but the
of salaries paid throughout the state is it not
reasonable to presume that they could be employed
on such a reduction that other teachers of like
qualifications would leave paying positions to teach
in Ortpway? Then how standards be maintain
ed by teachers that could be employed the basis of
those resolutions?

1t is frequently the case that persons who are

quently depend on hearsay for their information.
Sometimes this is reliable and sometimes it is not.
1t will depend on the interests and feelings OF the one
circulating the information
Where progress has come about through grad
ual changes, it is not noticeable when it
by revolution. Wiser action results from deliberation
in upheaval and revolution. 1t has been the policy in
our school of late to and not to revolution
iZe 1t might be of interest to note the progress
made the last few years.
In the primary department consisting of the
first three grades have organized in four groupes
in order that every child have individual attention
which is impossible in over-crowded rooms This is
very important because many children at this age
timid and only the more foreward would get
consideration We are using the best methods that
teaching of primary work. The results very
gratifying.
the fourth fifth and sixth grades, deserves special
consideration. The work of these grades is very
strong We frequently have pupils from other
more advanced here than in the schools from which
they came. We also note that frequently pupils eav
ing our grades go into other schools and are put in
higher grade work because of their strength and
foundation. We have never known of any of
children beng put back grade on entering other
schools but have frequently been put ahead grade
We have made provision in these grades to elimi-
nate two of the greatest wastes in education, viz:
the holding, of the exceerated child back for the
slower pupil and the usual failure of several of the
slower pupils of grade. We take out of each of
these grades the pupils who would fail the end of
the year because of being in class with so many
others and put them in where they can have
more individual attention and thereby complete
years work each year. We also take the fast pupils
out of each grade and group them so they may work
just fast they of them doing year and
half of work in year and some doing two years
work in one The room in which these two classes of
pupils are placed we call the Opportunity ROOM Since
the fastest and the sowest taken grade
it leaves the grade pretty we'll evened up and the
work better planned for this larger group. By this
organization in the intermediate department. every
pupil has an opportunity to do all he can.

ninth grades. One great advantage here that this
The Ordway new era., 1922-04-28

puts departmental teaching down through the sew
enth and eighth grades where the pupil has the ad.
vantage of teacher who is specialist for each OF
his subjects. Them too, this gives opportun-
y to promote pupils by subjects instead of by grades
If pupil should fail in subject he does not have
to repeat the entire grade but only the subject in which
three upper grades, the course of study has been
broadened and extended so that pupil is not com
in 1t is waste to try to make square pegs fit round
holes We put in the Commercial Department which
tended to include Biology and Chemistry Our Dom
este Science Department has been broadened to
give two years work IN sewing and cooking instead
of year of each.
- We believe high school should fit pupils to
live To earn bread and butter That is one common
criticism most high schools that they prepare only
for College entrance and the pupil who can't to
college finds his high schooling is not of much worth
to him in earning living. little investigation of
our own graduates of the last few years will show
that most all who are not in college have good paying
positions, right at home, result of the train
ing they received in our high school.
Our college preparatory course is strong We
have larger percentage of graduates in college than
high school the past four years All of four our pupils pupils
who go to college make good which true of all
the high schools of the county. There much larger
high school than ours, here in the Arkansas Valley
tat mas not tor several years put out pupil that could
stay at the University all pupils going there from that
school have failed in the first examinations and have
been sent home
Attention should also be called to the social
and me- moral raj tone OF the school Visitors from other
and good spirit that prevails both in the teaching staff
and the student body. We believe that high asnira
ons and incentives to right conduct can be secured
better through strong leadership and example than
through any other method that has been devised for
these purposes. ~

we are sure they have. but where is an institution
operating that has not made mistakes? 1t is very
easy thing to criticize Criticism is good when Il s
