To get such a view, adequate and complete, it would seem we'd that the board and the suoeantend ents be in possession of infomat.'on such as the following: 1. Information concerning the gen eral external and internal school conditions of the etire county is needed. This can be had by an :m paitial, sympathetic, fair and accui ate statement of facts, both statisti cal and in'foi maticnal in character. Sueh a statement can of cour.-.e be best menaied by the sunerintender.t, though it may sometimes be neces sary to have assistance with the de tails. The statement should: be pre pared in full r.Md in writing and so made as tr. be easily and intelligent ly understood by the board ami' by the average citizen of the county. Technical terms and the so'jalled sur vey terminology should l.e avoided, as well as the attitude that often ap peals in the so-called survey. The statement should above ail be sym pathetic rather than critical. 2. On such a statement, helpful, practical suggestions and recommen dations for improvement should be ade. These shraild also be in writing land so stated' as to be easily and Li I telligent'y undei stood bv both the board and the average citizen. 3. An adequate up-to-date map of the crunty should be prepared' and used, because giaphic jLHustration conveys definite ideas more readily and safely.'

Pinkham's Vegetable Compound Helps at This Trying Period Sheboygan, Wisconsin. "I was run down, tired and nervous. I could not even do my own housework, could not sleep at night and all kinds of queer thoughts would come to me. Finally I gave up going to the doctor and a friend told me of Lydia E.

UNSEEN CHURCH HOUSES Monroe Journal. In announcing the several events to take place in the First Baptist church during the Week, Div Bur rell, the pastor, remarked that he hoped to see the time come when the churchhouse wou d be open for some form of worship or service every day in the week. It has been said, he further re-marked, that a large plant like the modern church building was too expensive a prop osition to lie idle six days in the week. 'this is a point well taken. Every church house of this kind should be both a social and religious center for its congregation at least, if not a larger part of the c ommu- nity. There snoUid. be somcciUi..
