THE COUNTRY SCHOOL PROBLEM.
The country school problem is
the most important problem of our
civilization to-day.
1. It is the problem of our agri
cultural emancipation, of our in
dustrial prosperity. If the truth
1)^ told, wo are in a bad way agri
culturally. The country is being
deserted, plantations are being
eaten up by mortgages, dwellings
and barns built before the war
arc* going to decay, and, if destroyed
to-morrow, could not bo replaced.
We are living on tho accumulations
of the past, and fast using up the
little capital of our possessions.
This is true of many neighborhoods.
I am thankful it is not true of all.
But men now farm without hope.
The way out must bo through more
intelligent methods, better educa
tion.
2. Tho country school problem
is the problem of good govern meut.
The term "ward politician" and
"city boss" have acquired a meau
itig that tells of some of the evils
of government in cities. Although
"crossroads politician" is also a
term of disrespect, it has no sug
gestion of vicious purpose or of
venality. The crossroads politician
is charged with narrowness, mis
taken zeal. He is a patriot, and
all he needs is education. There
is among the people in the country
an independence and individuality
that are a safeguard to the state.
It will be a bad day for us when
wo no longer have this sturdy con
stituency to appeal to. We must,
therefore, by education, solve the
problem of how to make a living
in the country, and we must pro
vide adequately for the education
of children reared in the country.
3. The country school problem is
the problem of diversified life, of
all-round interest. Thus far, near
ly all of our city people have had
relatives or friends in the country
whom they at times visited. Hence
all our people have some experience
of country life—there are none but
have been brought under the influ
ence of this contact with nature.
This can no longer be so if the exo
dus from the country continues, if
we continue to have poor country
schools that fail to fit boys and
girls to live prosperously and hap
pily in the country—such poor
schools that parents 'see no hope
for their children there and go to
town—to live from hand to month
at uncertain employment—in search
of schools.
4. Tho country school problem
is, moreover, the problem of our
national vigor. The majority of
the leading business men of our
cities were reared on the planta
tions. So it is in each generation.
The city seems to require a back
country to draw upon for reinforce
ments. When these can no longer
be supplied the end is at hand.
5. The country school problem
is, indeed, the problem of the pre
servation of our Caucasian civili
zation and purity of blood. If the
country be abandoned to the ne
groes, then that which makes a
people great will be theirs aud not
the white man's. 'The hardihood,
the independence, the courage that
country life develops will be lost to
the Caucasians, who will have
gathered into congested centres,
where strength and vigor of mind
and body are at last sapped. The
country will snpply the men who
dominate. Who shall these be?

things needed more.
I. The first Illing needed is bet

toward the moulding of character.
I have been trying to impress this.
The slimmer schools arc working
toward this end. This Association
has for years labored to improve
the teachers of the state and has
done much.
II. Wo need a bettor course of
study in our schools. This is
closely related to better teaching
and together they would transform

it' they were an
They are not
made to appeal to a child's interest.
There is no attempt to show their
bearing upon life. A boy is har
assed with details about political
geography when the names of the
nations are meaningless to him.
Years are wasted in drill in the
rules of grammar, and the boy goes
out on the playground and violates
every rule, lie has never suspected
that those dry rules have anything
to do with the speech that is so in
dispensable a part of his life.
We should teach a man to know
not passively but actively ; to be
not a mere receptacle of informa
tion, but a potent factor. We
should teach more of science, and
especially should there be in all our
teaching more of the scientific spir
it. We should develop in the chil
dren a love of truth and a self-re
liance. Teach them to realize the
universality and the immutability
of cause and effect. Then they
will know that a wrong done can
never be righted; that it cannot be
undone. Teach a man to recognize
in all spheres of activity the order
ly processes of nature, and so feel
his responsibility to be in harmony
with the Divine Will, to promote
the good and not the evil.
Education does not consist mere
ly in developing in us mental power.
It should also supply us with use
ful knowledge of our environment.
This cannot be acquired in a day,
and it is folly to lose the years of
onr schooling in exercise merely
for the strengthening of our minds,
as dumbbells strengthen the mus
cles, instead of strengthening our
minds by acquainting us with the
great truths that are involved in
the life about us and in the prob
lems that will soon press upon us.
Life is too short. Duties are too
pressing. We should learn what
we need. In the last half century
there have come to the front social
aud industrial problems overshad
owing all else. Some sage has
said, "The only good is knowl
edge; the only evil is ignorance."
In the last analysis, every good
goes back to knowledge as its basis.
Every evil may be resolved into
ignorance as its cause. Wo must
know the right in order to do the
right.
But education should do more
than fit one to grapple with the
problems of life. The whole man
should bo developed to tin? fullest.
Our course of study and our teach
ing should cultivate the artistic
side of our nature, that we may be
in full harmony with creation.
Otherwise, those potential pleasures
remain forever unknown to us—
there is an irreparable loss to the
sutn total of human happiness. We
should teach art and music in our
schools. Tho experiment at the
State Summer School has satisfied
me that anybody can learn to draw,
and that almost anybody can learn
to sing.
The school should not aim to pre
pare for college ; it should prepare
for life. The college should take
the boy that comes to it and pre
pare him still better for life. It
should not make an idol out of what
it calls a "college course." All ed
ucation should prepare for life ;
should help to give us a truer atti
tude toward life.
3. Better moral support from lo
cal authorities is the next most im
portant need of onr country schools.
The trustees and the parents, as
well as the teacher, need to be edu
cated as to their duty. Their atti
tude may destroy all discipliue.
Above all, they should not change
the teacher uuless there is a certain
ty of getting better teaching. The
good teacher should be kept per
manently. Thus may the teacher
learn the children s dispositions,
win their hearts and train their
characters. Moreover, anew teach
er doesn't know where the children
are prepared to take up their stud
ies. A large part of the session is
practically lost while the teacher is
experimenting with the children.
4. Better supervision is another
need. The county superintendents
are usually paid too little to sup
port them and permit them to de
vote themselves to the work and
study of supervision as a profession.
They must pursue other occupa
tions for a living. Some perforin
no more than certain clerical duties
that might as well 1 m * performed
by the county auditor. All this
should be changed.
Better organization and divi
sion of the school itself is a press
ing need. We should seek to con
centrate our country schools. In
stead of four or five poor schools
scattered over a neighborhood, we
should have oue strong school, with
two or more teachers. The chil
dren conld be graded and taught
better. The teachers would stinm
late each other by association and
conference The monthly salarv
could be higher and the employ
nient longer. But how shall the
children get to t he school ? Here
is the problem. I insist that they
can walk a great ileal farther than
their too indulgent parents are now
willing for tliein to walk. We now
have many neighborhoods in which
it is possible to dispense with sev
eral schools and patronize one with
iivenieiice. I am
OHIO tendency to
this.
In the northeastern and north
western states they have resorted
to the practice ut' employing a driv
er and team to Irring to school and
carry home tlulchihlren who live
beyond a cei tiiii distance. I hope
within the nox* year to look into
this system. It is very possible
that, witfi the money saved by
abolishing just one of our weak
country schools, the more remote
children may be hauled to the big
school house which will be sup
ported hyi'thc money of the three
or tour other schools supplanted
out serious un
glad to observe
• I.
by it.
!>. Lastly, we need bettor finan
eial support -longer terms, bettor
equipment, better salaries. This
must come by levying a special
local tax. I put this last because I
believe that with our present re
sources we can do much on the
lines above indicated to give us
better schools. When these things
are done and the people see that
tho schools are not a humbug, they
will be readier to pay more money
to support them. But until there
is evidence of something being
done, nobody is willing to give
more money. I believe that a
good teacher will In the end bring
everything else. We see it in many
localities.
One thought more. There are
those who condemn universal edu
cation. They think that education
belongs to tho select few aud un
fits the ordinary man for his sta
tion in life, makes him discon
tented with his lot, threatens so
cialism. I will only say that as
long as there is room for improve
ment, it is a curse to keep men's
minds contented. To doubt that
it is good for all men to know is
to believe that darkness is botter
than light. It is good for us to
see the wondrous truths in the
midst of which God has placed us.

to lollow suit and negotiate similar
conventions.

No correspondence or written mat

at twelve cents a pound.
This in itself is an impôt
economic advance. Broadening in
toreonrse bet ween the t wo conn trios
is an undoubted benefit, which
blesses him that gives and him
that takes. But this is the least of
the advantages that may be expect
ed to flow from this agreement.
The greater benefit is that it neces
sarily will give a mighty impetus
to the establishment of a domestic
parcels post, which .lohn Wnna
maker, as Postinaster-t »encrai, in

blessing, what shall we call the

do it with a power secured only to
that of a national telegraph. It will
strongly tend to make our popula

Aud is this agreement with Ger

the only obstacle to a parcels post

A Proper Use of the Streets.
When the chief of police in Jersey
City suggested reccnty that certain
blocks of asphalted streets be roped
off at night and given up to dancing
by the populace generally, it. was
thought that he had hit. upon a
novel aud unique method of giving
pleasure to the masses inourcities.
Chief Murphy got tho idea from
watching children dance on the
tunes of street pianos, aud it oc
curred to him that if wagon traffic
could be stopped for several hours
of an evening on certain blocks, not
only the children, but the older
folks would come out and pass a
pleasant evening in dancing and
promenading. Ho even suggested
that bands could be hired, by sub
scription or ortherwise, and that
the monotony of city life could b<
brightened by an evening carnival
on the street, with lights aud music,
and dancing by all who cared to
join. The moral side of the ques
tion appealed to hiin. lie said such
open-air dancing would bo less
harmful by far to young people,
conducted in the sight of all who
eared to look on, tlinn dancing in
obscure halls or in gloomy picnic
grounds.— Harper 1 a Weekly.

Ä Word '
to Doctors
We have the highest regard for the
medical profession. Onr preparations
ore not sold for the purpose of antagon
izing them, but rather as an aid. Wo
lay it down an an established truth that
internal remedies are positively injuri
ous to expectant mothers. The distress
and discomforts experienced during tho
months preceding childbirth can be al
leviated only by external treatment—by
applying a liniment that softens and re
laxes the over-strained muscles. We
make and sell such a liniment, com
bining the Ingredients in a manner
hitherto unknown, and call it
Mother s Friend
We know that in thousands of cases
it has proved more than a blessing to
expectant mothers. It overcomes morn
ing sickness. It relieves the sense of
tightness. Headachcs cease, und dan
ger from Swollen, Hard and Rising
Breasts is avoided. Labor itself is
shortened and shorn of most of the pain.
We know that many doctors recom
mend it, and we know that multitudes
of women go to the drug stores and buy
