well-trained teachers can be induced to offer
their services in rural communities? What
changes should be made in the preparation of
teachers for rural schools? Should not the ele-
mentary and high school courses of study include
more emphasis on the economic and social prin-
ciples underlying rural conditions? What steps
should be taken to secure better buildings and
equipment? If all these better things" were
added to schools, how would they affect pupils
attendance and progress? Ought not the state
to guarantee an equity of educational opportunity
to all it's children?

WASHINGTON, D. C.-While it is
early to forecast just what the presi-
dents message to congress will cOn-
tain, it can be stated that one Of his
suggestions for aiding agriculture
will be the encouragement Of the CO.
operative movement for the handling
Of farm products,
President Coolidge, as a boy, lived
and worked on a farm. The problems
of the farmer are not theories with
him. He knows by acual experience
the things with which the farmer has
to contend. He realizes that the farm
er, like every other Individual, has a
right to expect aid when aid is needed.
Neither the farmers Of the country
o the president are foolish enough
to think that price-fixing will bring
any relief.

try have an idea that the president is
