Each tem oi tne county, we are very grateful to Mr; Story for this generous offer and we would like to make use at it f or the betterment of our school system in general. I would like very much for the different communities and especially the teachers in the various schools to contribute ar ticles of general school interest to the paper, the teachers send ing their articles to me so that we may condense them or get them in form so we can keep within the space assigned to us and give proper attention to all correspondence.

In this ar ticle I wish to discuss briefly one of the needs of the county as I see it'from my study of the conditions in the county Tf tt are irointr to build nn a valuable system of schools ir. 'pn an eight month's term. teacher should have the equip ment at hand that will aid her to do her work quickly and in telligently. The pupils should have such helps as will make the work pleasant and stimu? ulating to him, and provide hint with means that will enable him to Understand more fully what the teacher seeks to impart. Charts, maps, etc. should! be provided for the "use of the teacher in the class room. The (Continued on another galley.) school should be equipped! with modern equipment, such as desks, blackboards, libraries. It would be very foolish to se cure weil-trained teachers and organize the work of the school so that only one grade- would be taught by each teacher and then fail to provide the neces sary equipment. Bt would be just as foolish to hiire a carpen ter and fail to provide him with the necessary tools with which to work. The fourth requirement for a standard elementary school is a term of eight months. A school may be able to meet all the a bove requirements and then fail to become a standard school be cause its term is too short.. ,The State Course of Study is based This Madison County4, it is necessary for certain standards to be set ud and for ns to work toward thesestaiidartts: The elementary schools of the county deserve our first con sideration since so many of our children have only elementary school advantages and there fore I wish to set forth some ob jectives in building up the coun ty system of schools tor Madi son County. .

SYNOPSIS OF ORDINANCE TOWN OF IJARSHALL TO PROHIBIT THE WASTE OF WATER Abstract of Ordinance nassed bv the Board of Aldermen Town of Mar shall, July 22nd, 1925. First: Any person, firm or corporation in the town of Marshall permitting water to run to waste through leaking pipes or water fixtures after know ledge of the same shall pay to the. town of Marshall fifty cents for each day of such waste.' :" . .;:.ti,vv? Second: " Unon. failure to pay said penalty the water shall be cut off from the premises of such person,- firm or corporation, and any firm or preson or corporation turnina- water on after it is cut off before the penalty is paid shall be guilty of misdemeanor, and shall pay a fine of twenty-five dollars or imprisoned not exceeding tnirty days. teacherWill have to teach. In otnt city school systems no teacher has more than one d. erf ad e.'' Consequently, then. teacher. has more time to devote to the preparation of her work, can give the pupil individual at tention, and jpw:--auperyiie--..v;-. groyp as ! -whole. or nis reason we find the children in the city schools further advanc ed in their grades than those in the Country schools. If the teacher attempts to teach more than" one grade, the recitation periods fnust be shortened, and a more or ' less disorganized school, will result. The pupils also suffer by losing interest in his work since he does not re ceive the individual attention that ts necessary. - : The second requirement oi an Madison County. It is grossly unfair then to provide one part of the children with an eight months' term with all its advan tages, and then fail to provide the others with like advantages. To sum up, Madison County should set as its standards for the elementary schools the fol lowing objectives: One teacher for each grade. Well trained teachers with a minimum of two years training above the high school. '.Equipment that will aid ' both the teacher tnd the pupil. . A school term of not less than eight months. O. S.
