SUPPORTING EDUCATION
COLD WA VE IS SWEEPING SOUTH
Money for public schools comes
hard in inan> places. Sometime*
il would be easier if it didn't come
so hard, to state a paradox Thero
were towns that refused to build
needed school house* during the
period bef( re the war, that now
have nut them up at two or three
i in- tin ri• v| that would havd
been adequate in IfllK. Mighty
littI - economy there. ,%
The school appropriation is
commonly the largest single form
< f municipal expenditure. Hut as
tiie fiiIiire of the community de-
pends ou its schools more than
on any .other one thing, this is
only natural and it should be so.
Many economists < pposo mak-
ing a reasonable appropriation
for schools, on the ground that
(lie sui|i spent is already large.
Hut they fail to ask whether it
is as much as other progressive
communities if the same size or
wealth are expending. A town
must have schools comparing fav-
orably with its competitors, if it
I- to continue to grow and flour i

\ city that has a reputation

comers much faster thau one that
has not this distinction. Coed
schools pa> for themselves, by
attracting residents wlm de-
Hire the best facilities for their
young foiks.
It is not enough simply to make
liberal appropriations for educa-
tion. The people must see that
the money is well expended. The
utmost ran slit ubl be given to
the selection of school• boards.
The brainiest and busiest people
in tile community should feel it
a sacretl ilut\ to accept office in
this position when called upon.
Self seekers and politicians who
attempt to use the schools for
per. (M il or political , purposes
should be shown where they be-
long.
