badly discover next November that
the farmer is not easily fooled; be

not compel the packers trust to
pay more for a live steer by reason of
the hide which covers 1t. The pack
ers bid their price for the steer,

To the Voters of Randolph County

Do you know that the annual
school election is the most import.
ant election that you are privileged
to vote in, and do you know that
more than half of the voters of this
county do not vote In this election?
Of course the reason you do not
vote is not because you are not In
terested in the welfare of your
children, but rather because you
think their interests will be taken
care of by those who do vote. Let's
see If this is true: Last year two
districts voted no tax; another did
not have enough present to hold an
election; still another forgot to hold
the elecSion on Saturday, but held
it on the following Monday. Only
forty.two districts voted 70 mills,
though every one of them should
have voted IL mills or more in Or
der to employ capable teachers for a
period of eight or nine months.
About one thIrd OF the schools in
the county spend annually for edu-
cation less than one hundred and
ffty dollars.
Ten years ago only three or four
districts would employ third grade
teachers, today at least one third of
them employ third grade teachers.
Some of them have been employed
for the sake of saving from FIVE to
ten dollars per month for the DIS
trlcts IN which they teach. This Is
not meant rs a thrust at anyone. /
am merely setting forth the actual
facts, that we may go about making
few intelligent changes. No one
will endeavor to gsinsay the state
ment that the FIRST essential TO a
good school is well qualified
teacher. Then is it a saving TO a
district when an inefficient teacher
has been employed when better
one might have been employed for
a lew dollars more? Certain school
directors in the county will not en-
Ploy teacher unless sbe holds q
first grade certificate. In fairness
to all children l should like to SEQ
this standard in all the schools,
This can be brought about only
when you patrons want a better
school. When you come to the
Pocahontas star herald., 1922-05-12

conclusion that no one but a first
grade teacher shall teach your chill
dren, then the teachers will gladly
make the necessary preparation.
First grade teachers can be IN.
duced TO stay in tae county or IN
the prof ession when they are gwen
reasonable pay for their services.
Each rear ] see many of our best
teachers either leave the state or
quit teaching entirely because of
the poor salaries offered them.
Are we doing the best for our chill
dren when we permit thisY Is this
good business? Is 1t not false
economy? At present there are ten'
first grade men teachers IN the eouD'
ty; there are perhaps twenty-five or
thirty grade teachers. Can you un-
oe'staDu why lnls 10 True!
In many districts ~ mills will be
sufficient to MAINTAIN ibe kind of
school everv Arkansas child is en-
titled to. ! kindly suggest that
the patrons sign petition asking
the county clerk to extend whatever
additional tax might be necessary
to maintain a school. This will
cost you little more, it is true, but
after all, Is 1t not cheaper than to
shackle the lives OF your children
by forcing them to grow up in this
age uneducatedH Respectfully,
,, Rufus A. Mock,
County superintendent.
