educationalYproblems from a business stand point we have been tuijning too much to what is Called higher education I anij myself a believer in higher educa tion I mean by that the universities colleges and high schools and would not detract from their importance in the least but they are already liberally provided for far in advance of our common schools ft v- Wo are told by the UnitedStates bureau of education that more than twothirds of our boys in the United States leave school before the end of the eighth grade that the average length ofa boys schooling is less than six years and this school training before the ages of twelve to fourteen years while the boy is too young to appre ciate his loss that less than one boy in four completes the grammar schoolingaone enter school completes the course in high school public or private or goes higher that of all boys twelve to fourteen years of age who should certainly be in school less than GQ pr cent are there From the Sage Foundation funds reports wo are told that of 100 boys who enter the first grade only fiftyfive enter the fifth grade only twentyseven are left in the eighthfgrade sbc in the highschool and one to enter college that only 5 par cent of the males in the nation are fitted by definite educational raining for their occupations or vo cations 1 These facts are given on high authority and when we remember that they apply to the country at largo and that Kentucky is probably below this average is it not lamentable 1 IF ONLY ONE BOY IN FORTY COMPLETES THE HfGH SCHOOL COURSE IS IT NOT VERY IMPORTANT STRENUOUS-LY AFTER THE OTHER ffiRTY AND NINE Ithink at present we educators and all are following the old trend of looking too exclusively toward the higher education I think our legislative bodies have illustrated this when four years ago they made it mandatory on every county in the state to build a high school within two years There was little mandatory concerning the poor small schools scattered throughout the counties These thirty and nine poor dovils will have little chance to get within sight of a high school at all but must plod along as best they may It is true the same legislature allowed the fiscal court to levy a tax of 20 cents on the 100 for school purposes in each county It is also true that many of the counties levying this tax have used it largely in establishing a high school at the county seat or some other town which is unfair to these thirty and nine who do not get to the high school I DO NOT WISH TO BE UNDERSTOOD AS OPPOSING HIGH SCHOOLS OR HIGHER EDUCATION AM IN FAVOR OF BOTH TO THE LIMIT BUT I AM COMPLAINING THAT ONLY ONE BOY IN FORTY SHOULD HAVE THE LIONS SHARE OF THE FEAST IN TENDED FOR ALL I THINK THIS SHOWS CLEARLY THE NEED OF MORE MONEY FOR OUR SCHOOLS SO THAT ALL MAY HAVE A FAIR SHOW There is I think another mistake that ought to be corrected as far as possible and that relates to the pay of teachers by location or with reference to location The cities and largo towns and wealthier payfThus the back districts in the counties where there are generally more children are compelled to get along with the cheapest and poor salariesd fortgood results need the best teachers or at least as good as the best This condition can be mot at once by the county boards supple menting the salaries of teachers in the districts out of the county funds Such action would bring immediate relief WHY WAIT ONE YEAR OR TWO YEARS FOR LEGISLATIVE ACTION WHEN THERE IS A TEMPORARY WAYOUT OF THE DIP FICULTY PENDING IMPROVEMENT IN LEGISLATION Think of the unlift given to the citizens of another generation even by a single term of schooling 1 Is it not little short of criminal to fail to apply a remedy when it is within our power g- If wo cannot got funds enough for both high schools and low schools is it not bettor to use sufficient of the county fund in tiffs way whichdcan these thirty and nine by reason of their improved intelligence through these bettor teachers in time force the building of high schools for all Lost to Shame desiretis to be a United States senator When a man sets so much money as be has he doesnt

the respon sibilities which go with tho oppor tunity Kentucky the first state in the SoutH to establish free schools has been asleep for nearly fifty years on public school education and now wakes to find herself lagging in the Tear of most ot her slater states in Ibis important matter We were ruralts were r fisloop when we did not keep the school apace with the development ad growth of the nation We were asleep when we left the whole matter la the hands of the school teacher and neglected our responsibility to as sigt him and stand by him We were asleep when we sent men to the leg telature unfit to grapple with this inestlon and most generally indiffer r t to it- Thank God we are awake now and before it is too late Awake and on guard and If we as sentinels for edu salon on the watch towers of progress ao to sleep until the school house is made a thing of credit Instead of a rIlh1Dg of reproach until the stain of il is wiped out we deserve the sleepiwe were Ignorant and indifferent to the lack of advancoment in our nchoos we wore nevertheless responsible but snow that we aro fully aware of our unfortunate condition we are doubly responsible If we do not respond to It The precious Jewels of tho common- Wealth y aro Its children The future of the state depends upon them andr they depend on us Are we going to polish them with an education to tSt them for lifes duties and obliga gloat ad citizenship or are we going lo allow them to grow up In ignorance to become paupers and criminals It r 3s a burning question which appeals p jto manhood which appeals to Intelli

fItOJ nlnty1R MICe3A pY a rIt 3 11 4 r wYM mr laws without public sentiment will not solve our problem We need a public sentiment which will Impress tho fact that a greater obligation rests upon the parents to educate their children than upon the state and that they ought to bo willing to pay moro for it than the state That the best way to create a local interest in the local school Is a local tax and as proof of this It should be shown that all the best schools have a local tax and all the worst schools are without it That the district trustee should boas much Interested in the teacher and his teaching as the teacher Is in his school That the school house should be as good and as attractive as any home in the district That when we know under the new school census where the illiterate chil dren live it will become the duty of the people of that district to see that these children are sent to school and provide clothing and shoes If theI parents are too poor to provide them That the teacher should be more commended for what he is able to ac complish and less criticized for what he Is unable to do That moonlight schools for theI adults will pay better than moonshine stillsThat the ofllco of county school superintendent is the most important in the country That it is more Important to oduI cate all the people some than a few of the people a great deal That wo do not need to teach dead languages in a live country except within the walls of a university That those things which will be ofImost value to a boy and girl they leave school should be tho thngsI which should be taught first and That the childrens minds shouldI not be puzzled over Greek roots when they do not know the difference between calamus root and poke root That the conjugation lOt the verb amo need not be taught In the school because the boys and girls learn it soon enough outsldo the school That the unknown quantities of al gebra had better remain unknown than that a boy should remain igno rant of the soil quantities of his Fathers farm That the time spent in making In different performances on tho piano could be better utilized In abolishing bad biscuits from the breakfast table That the public school ought to get In the newspaper and the newspaper In the public school While you may not agree with me In all of these things you will cer tainly agree with me in most of them The question is how are we going to creato this public sentiment The school teacher Is powerless to 3o it even when he does his best He Is handicapped by the very nature I of the case We must look to the educated people of this state Men and women who will give their time and talent and means to create a better 3entlmenJfor tho rural schools rand we must look to the press The newspaper and the public schools are tho two greatest forces it work In this country for both progress and enlightenment The newspapers influence depends upon the number of readers it has and the number of readers depends on how many people are taught to read ThereI must be a combination between the press and the professor a united in terest between the newspaper and the public school If the press of thisI state would give half the thought and half the space to education that it does to politics the schools would bo rove lutionized In less than a decade The press must first be made Interested In this great question then it must be educated to the needs of the schools then shown how the needs may be supplied The editor and the school teacher must be brought within closer touch with each other This should be done through this organization Mind you I am not talking about a movement through the press for the benefit of the teachers but a move ment for the benefit of the people The school must bo made the Important thing and not the school teacher The childrens Interest must be put in the forefront as the battle cry through the press for their welfare and tho welfare of the state All great enter prises get before the public with the news bureau and there is no enter prise as great as the education of the masses Most enterprises pay for publicity but this is one of which tho newspapers will require no pay It takes real newspaper talent to con duct any kind of publicity bureau It requires the talent of first Interesting the reader with what It tells next it must do more than Interest it It should got the reader In sympathy with the story then It must so take hold of him that he wants a part in h I There should be selected a most capable man or woman with proper news paper Instinct to send a column once a week to every newspaper In Ken tucky of such live public school matter that the editor will be glad to give It space The Information should be gathered from the various schools all over the state by the teachers and sent to the head of their bureau It should be facts and not arguments The facts can be so written that the will carry their own argument and also carry convictions Such an edu cational press bureau established in this city or Frankfort could would arouse more Interest and create mor- public sentiment for the rural schools than any other one thing could do because every week It would have a thousand times as large an as this building will hold With th press willing to help Ido hope that such an opportunity will set be allowed to escape A1 FOR ROAD BUILDERS INEXPERIENCED CONSTRUCTION FIRST STEP IS DRAINAGE AwayGet Water Off From Road as Quickly as Possible Weeds and Sod Make TroubleProper Use ef Gravel By HOWARD H GROSS- It Is not overstating the fact to say that threefourths of the men charged with tho responsibility of building and repairing the roads the country over know very little about the subject they have not had the engineer- Ing experience or even the practical experience necessary they have aim ply followed their predecessors and they do what the fellow before them didIn the movement for better high ways the first step Is a more Intelli gent expenditure of the time and money appropriated for the better ment of the roads to the end that the community shall get the most and the best results for Its contribution It Is common practice to do either the wrong thing or If perchance the right thing is done to do it at the wrong time of the year and the result is very often an expenditure oC one dol lar to get thirty cents worth of bone fit As an instance we might cite that Illinois is spending five million of dollars a year upon the highways and those In position to know aSsert that more than half of it Is wasted 111 tlmod and misdirected effort cak ImprovementJohnson Tenn What Is true of Illinois is true throughout central west In order to make suggestions that will be of value one must assume some typical conditions and indicate what It Is best to do to Improve the roads under In road Improvement the first and most Important step is drainage Without proper drainage effort will fall Water Is the only natural enemy of roads and water is a cow ard and will run away if given a chance hence get the water off the road and away from road as quickly as possible This may be done either by surface or subsurface drainage by side ditches with ample fall and proper ouUet to carry the water away from the highway or by tile If the latter is done nothing less than four Inch till ought to be used and It should be very carefully laid and shouldbe put on each side of road particularly where drainage is most needed Be sure that the outlet is unobstructed If side ditches are used especially on a hUtI and have wide prac ticable at the bottom the bed of the ditch hi slope Construct that the ef the ditch next to the hill will be aa loch or so lower tineslde- next to the rod so the flew will theeroad WhereVer it is necessary to carry water across a roadway it beet tk use free er seacrete aqd carry tileewill 4o if is placed a sull taaee rte surface so it will net Broken by the traffic The outlet of crosslBi should ooasidwa a bly farther hill than the In take Wbore culverts aro necessary them of ample size and It Is equally important to glvo the culvert sufficient fall twelve Inch culvert twenty four feet with a fall of four inches is better than one twice the size with a fall of two inches The rapid flow through the culvert with a greater fall will keep tho culvert clean In one where the flow sluggish desposlts will form and soon will choke tho flow Bo sure to leave am pIe outlet so the water can move freely after passing through the culvert In grading to make a fill do not al low any weeds or sod to get Into the roadway These will decay and make all kinds of trouble It Is much bet ter to keep out in the first Instance It In making the fill the material must be moved six hundred feet or less It Will bet advantageous to do this with scrapers wheel preferred But If the material must be moved more than that it will be cheaper to put it upon wagons Any filling of this nature should bo early in the spring preferably as soon as tho IB out of the ground so it will have ample time to compact and settle by the summer rains and I the traffic By proper handling dur seveIbo dragged with a split log drag or Its equivalent after rains In order to I keep the fills smooth and rounded so the water will run off quickly Tho I main thing is to prevent this from becoming water iioaked If this is I done It will be thoroughly out and In good condition before the win I ter sets In and it can be kept com paratively dry If the tiles are kept open at the side and water Is kept off the surface In order to do this t iv uD wr n aeewsrcna +aye e reran rru IBefore City the them every the the the hilly down long them made dried tho ruts must be filled as soon as madeWhen a grade Is once established the surface thereafter should never be disturbed except the top two or three Inches in order to smooth It out with a road drag or harrow We will assume that the fill has made preparatory to putting gravel or crushed stone upon the highway and thus have a permanent improvement The following suggestions will boot benefit to the Inexperienced road builder who has simply farm tools to useIt not designed to suggest to the experienced builder having improved road machinery to use Where roads are graveled it has been very common for the farmers to haul the gravel and dump It down in a winrow and leave it to be spread and compacted by traffic Every driver avoids this winrow until soft weather compels him to drive over w n After Improvement Johnson City Tenn thin beautiful road shows the same highway as the other nlus ration taken leas than a half mile away after the same has been Improved such roads mean better schools more social life contentment more profit and higher farm values The Increase In the value fit farm lands along this road Is said to bat least three times as much WI the tax to build the road These Illustrations were furnished by the U L Office of Public Roads slope them as as so side than is pipe it dow be Uli be t f have A is type frost flll been is It Hence the road made In this man ner requires a lone Ume and a great deal of subsequent attention before a fairly good gravel road is there suItBetoreputtlnlt down the travel shoulders should be made the width that the gravel Is to be spread which may be anything from nine feet er- sore After the gravel is dumped In between the shoulders take ah old fashioned field harrow and to back and forth ever this winnow and with the aid of a little hand work here and there have it spread over the surface smoothly and three er four inches higher at the middle than at the sides This 1wTewl 1 T ry important as it gets the particles cqmposln the material closer together and to a t 1 t 4 t ergo extent takes the piano of a ro 1 cr If a roller can be end this taro Should bo used and usu fmmcdlately after a rain But a good road can ho had without a roller if it is taken care of and looked nftqr during the first year and the best implement tof do this is with a split log drag uEic it the same as on an earth road Rut will form along the wagon track and where the horses go but a dragging of the surface will fill these and in a short time a compact smooth road way will result A better road can be built n QUO year if this plan is fol lowed than can be built in three years by tho old plan and the road will be smoother and will serve a better pur poseDo not forget that the most impor tant part ofroad building is drainage and that five or six inches of gravel on a well drained road will give bet ter results than twice this material upon a road that Is Imperfectly drain ed When the writer was attending the great International Meeting of Road Engineers in Parts 1908 one of the delegates asked an eminent French engineer how soon after the road was built he commended to make repairs His answer was The next day If any place n stitch in time saves nine It certainly will do so on the highway The splendid roads of Europe are looked after by an attend ant who goes over them every week and as soon as a break appears theI necessary repair Is made In thist country the practice has been to build an expensive road or pave a street at a high cost and do nothing with It un I tit It becomes ImpassableIWhen any ed and thoroughly drained its high ways the question of good roads is half solved but only half A smooth hard wearing surface must bo put up on the same especially upon the main highways Where tho state aid is followed Che expense is not a IllanI den to anyone and tho benefits arc ninny and shared in by all Wo sometimes hoar the statement made by those who are trying to find objections to the building of hard roads that an earth road is much pleasanter to drive upon and easier for the horses and therefore the advantages of a good road are In some degree offsot by the fact that an earth road at certain seasons is tho better of the two I The writer has always advocated I that where It is practical it would be ti well to leave a smooth earth road I alongside of the stone or gravel road so that the drivers might choose be- tweenI the two When the weather is fino and the earth road is smooth the drivers will usually take that in preference to the hard road This saves wearing the hard road andythus it serves a double purpose Let heavy rain descend and everybody takes the hard road The difference is the im proved highway is good 365 days in the year and the other road is good and bad by Urns Having them side by side which can easily be done without additional expense the people have the dholco Thoro is another feature of the per manent road that should not be lost sight of In the busy season while the crops are being planted some times a heavy rain will fall so that the fields are too wot to work With good roads the farmer can make a trip to town do the necessary ere rands haul off a load of grain or hogs and keep his farm hands employed If the roads are unimproved he can neither work tho farm nor travel the highwaysEvery road overseer and in fact eVe ery farmer should send to the state engineer of his state end to the office of Public Roads at Washington and have his name put upon the mailing list so that the bulletins and circu lars of which scores aro published eVe ery year upon road building and main tenance road drainage and lions that grow out of the experiencej of road building can be followed up and adopted by them If this were done it would stop an enormous amount of money that every year is wasted upon the highways by 111 timed and misdirected
