WHAT SHALL RURAL SCHOOLS TEACH?

That new c~urricula for schools are outstanding
needs in rural communities is a statement made
IN the January, 1926, number of School Life, a
monthly journal issued by the bureau of educa-
ton, United States department of the interior.
The detectives of elementary education are
common to all schools, rural and urban. The
contributions, positive or negative, which environ
ment makes to the realization of these detectives
differ in urban and in rural communities. Expert
ences differ between rural and urban children
as do the common activities through which child
rem learn, both inside and outside the schoolroom.
Moreover, the organization in rural schools of
one, two, or three teachers is very different from
that of the ordinary city school with one teacher
to a grade. Materials taught must fit the stu
alton.
For these and other reasons, a new curriculum.
which shall be made "first hand" out of all the
source materials which rural life and rural COM
munity furnish, to replace the made over ma
terials designed for urban conditions, is advocated.
Country children should be educated as well as,
and toward the same ends as, city children. This
result will be best accomplished, suggests the
article referred to, with a good curriculum based
upon the needs of the children to be educated and
with a good teacher to utilize it.

IT'S AN ILL WIND.

WASHINGTON. D. C-The Dem
Ocrats have had 80 little opportunity
to chOrtle over Republican misadven-
lures, that it is not surprising they
Z making the most Of the debate
over Texas federal patronage between
Mr.. Creager, the Republican commit
Seeman, and Congressman Wurzbach.
The congressman got his dander up
over certain appointments, maintain
ing that as the only Republican con-
gresham out Of Texas, he ranked the
national committeeman. The national
committeeman replied eontrariwise,
and John @. Tilson and Win Wood
joined in the fray.
The debate, however, Is picturesque
rather than important When it Is
all yer there win be certain recon-
citations, and Wurzbaeh, n o doubt,
win be returned 70 congress to con-
hnue as the only Republican con.
gresham from tho GQne Star state.
Meanwhile, If the Democrats can be
kept busy enjoying the Joke, we may
be saved their dangerous i~nterNed-
ding in the more serious things relat-
ing 20 the life Of the nation, 50, 70.
al there might be 9 profit for the
Republicans Ia this event

MUSCLE SHOALS.

WASHINGTON, D. c. President
Coolidge is winning over a majority
Of congress to his side in the matter
Of a disposition of the Muscle Shoals
puzzle. This matter has been before
congress almost ever since the close
Of the World War. It is one Of those
salvage propositions left ever by
the Democrats to the Republican ad-
ministratiOn.
The meat Of the fight is whether
the government shall operate the
plant or lease it to the highest bidder.
In the last session Of congress, the
battle was waged fiercely between
the government-Operation group and
the leasing group. The whole ques-
ton was left high in air when con-
gress adjourned a year ago.

A GOVERNMENTAL FUNCTION?

The small newspaper publisher with his job
printing office has been harder hit by government
ownership and competition in the printing in
dustry than have the operators Of any other line
Of business.
The little printer is in direct competition with
the great tax-free government printing office
with its tremendous buying power backed by the
credit of the United States treasury itself.
The National Editorial association is now lead
ing in the campaign to get the government out
Of the commercial printing business. If the
government can print and sell envelopes, why not
print and sell letter paper to go with the en-
velopes, or sell letter paper imprinted if the Gus
toner so desires? If the quality buying power
Of the government is to be used for the benefit
Of the purchaser Of one commodity, why not ex-
tend it to al commodities?
The Courier is strongly supporting the National
Editorial association in its campaign. because we
believe that Organization is doing public service
IA bringing The question to e final determination.
