Cellegiate Alumni Dinner. Unless Kansas gets behind the consolidation of schools movement, it will. not move forward, M. L. Smith, of 'the Normal, told the members of the Association of Collegiate Alumnae at a dinner in the Normal Cafeteria last night.
Mr. Smith described the condition of education in rural communities where the 1-room school house of pioneer days is making the vain pretense of educating the Ameriyouth. "Side by side, however, with this relic of the past in the educational field. are the signs of Twentieth Century progress in other lines- -the automotile, the tractor, the telephone, and the rural free, delivery," Mr. Smith said.
"But the same little schoolhouse, whether a dugout or a small frame or stone building of, 20 years ago, in spite of this progressive age, still exists in Kansas--not a few in number, but to the number of 7760. "Do we realize that 71,000 boys and giris of school age in the state of Kansas are not even enrolled in school, and that many children over 12 years of age in our state do not know their letters?" Mr. Smith asked. "It no wonder then that the State of Kansas ranks 27th in education as compared with the other states; it is even lower than that of the Canal Zone." Mr. Smith said the citizens of Kansas must open their eyes to the fact that 10 years ago Iowa ranked 30th and Kansas 5 24th, while today Iowa is seventh and Kansas twenty-seventh.
has happened in Iowa?" he asked. "The schoolhouse has gone, and today there are in that state 400 consolidate1 schools; in Ohio there are 800, in Colorado 200. It is time for Kansas to see the vision. "What. does the consolidated school mean to the communihy? It means the Americanizing of the people, teaching them to live.
It means a bettering of social conditions, an improving of home life. This change of conditions in the rural community brought about by the consolidated school! furnishes an incentive for people to remain in their own community, to live and to enjoy life."

So speak the jays, in doleful bands, who grunt and 1 grumble daily; out their lives they wring their hands, and murmur, "Willow-waly!" But wise men say that bitter times are just what we are ing; we're learning now to prize the dimes we used to blow We used to blow cur coin in haste, for all the junk they'd dish us; we're learning now that wanton waste is foolish, vain and vicious. We had to learn that much of truth, and heal the spendthrift canker, and take our earnings to the booth where dwells the village banker; we had to learn this sort of dope, and quit our money burning, before there could be any hope of stable times returning. We're getting down again to tacks, we cease our spendthrift ravings, and you may see us making tracks to salt away our savings. When we are seedy, sick and sore, it takes strong dope to cure us; and now Good Health is at the door, the wise old lads sure us. The medicine we have to take may seem trifle bitter, but what's the diff if it will make each gent a healthy critter? -Walt Mason.

W. H. Brooks T. Jensen Bang Mae Hoch, Assistant Secretary FLAT TIRES. I rode with Johnson in the rain, in his new 50-horsepower wain.
The, rain was pouring down, gadzooks! The road was cressed by running brooks. But we were snug and dry inside, and carried smiles three cubits wide. And then, kerplunk, a tire went flat; and Johnson merely sighed thereat. And then he left his cozy seat, and sloshed around on squirting feet. "You stay," he said, "just where you are; I'll do the fussing with the car." out there in the tempest wild he toiled around, and still he smiled.
He seemed to think his labors fun, and whistled, Get Your Gun." And when he'd changed the rubber tire, he climbed in from the rain and mire, and grasped the costly steering wheel, as cheerful as a locoed cel. "Ods fish," I said, "a saint you are! Were 1 compelled to leave my car and tinker it in the wet, my language- would be you bet!" And Johnson heaved a smile at me; "I've lived for many years," said he; "and I have known my ups and downs, and wilted neath misfortune's frowns. I've found when things are going wrong, it braces one to shed a song; in times of sorrow and despair it doesn't help me out to swear." -Wats, Mason. Copyrighted Adams Syndicate Normal to Offer Athletic Courses.
