Lifting the Rural School-
At the recent convention ol
school men at Richmond the com
mittee of resolutions of the sup
erintendents of schools of th
United States adopted ti) is pro])-
ositian:
"Every rural school should pro
vido a home, .including a small
farm for the teacher- This 'teach
er will be one trained for ru-
ral schools, will know the child
and his needs, will cease to be
a tramp teacher and will be able
to correlate school life with life
in the country and will be a le^r
er of men "
Former Superintendent Green-
wood of Kansas City says of such
a rural school home that ever}
school district should buy 40 acre
rather than 10, and should do s<
now. rather than wait until land
is 50 per cent higher- Our rural
schools are not a success, but co-
operation between the district in
some such endowment aa this, and
the state itself, in appropriations
for the support of the rural
schools will raise the rural school
standard in the naxt 10 year< 100
per cent-

ABOUT OUR UNEMPLOYED

news, in the daily paper.
"An unidentified woman about
iwenty-two years old dropped
dead last night at West 43d and
Loom is Streets. The police be

ishment. She wore a black
skirt and black shirt waist and
had a white shawl tied over her
