A SCHOOL REVELATION Citizens of Minnesota shauld take notice of a report présented to the Minnesota Education Association exposing defecst in the system of raising and spending school funds in this state. It was prépared by Fletcher H. Swift, professor in the Uni- versity of Mihnesota and’ Frances Kelley Del Plaine, after exhaustive investigation of the subject. It recommends abolishment of the school district and substitution of N the county as the unit™ of educational work, including’ fmancing. Nearly 88 per cent of all Minnesota school funds is raised by the districts in which the money is spent. The greatest in- equality exists between rural counties and betweeén districts in' the same county in their_school tax Tates,’ which often bears 7 on: to- their comparahve ability taxes. It is not'surprising to discover that the tax rates generally, but not always are lowest in'the richest rural counties; but it is amazing that some of the*richest counties'spend the least and some of the poorest spend. the most per ¢hool' child. It is evident that there is a vafl tiou iin‘the values placed on education. its differbnt places: Thie report states that Murray county, which stands second only to St. Louis in the of its taxable wealth per school cfi?&‘ ‘spends $104 annually per child for [ ucatlon while Hubbard ~county which has the Teast proportlonate wealth of any of the eighty six counties spends $124. Sibley-county with more than three times the relative wealth of Hubbard, spends only $79 per child. The child living in the poorest county has a much better chance of: obtaining an education, as far. as local school ‘taxes are concerned, than a child in other counties that are much richer. One of the most liberal counties in the state in school expenditures is Sherburne, which has less than half the population of Sibley county;-but spends on schools $139 per child.

THE WORLD BEFORE YOUR EYES There’s an old fable that tells us about a wonderful carpet in ancient Bagdad. By sitting upon it you could view the entire world. By making a simple wish it would carry you anywhere you wanted to’go. The magic carpet of today may be lik- ened to advertising. Truly it’s remarkable when you consider the fact that by a.fif- teen-minute perusal of the newspaper you can review the merchandise of the world— accurately pictured and presented. Most everything. we wear, most every- thing we eat and most everything - that shelters us or provides for- our amusement has come to us through advertising. The offerings of the country~—necessities as well as luxuries—avre before you as you go through the papers; Here you see the newest styles as they are introduced—tfe newest comforts of the home—the most mterestmg things in world inventions:- The advertisements are informative, au- thentic and educational. They tell what to buy, where to bug_and when to buy. In all details they are right up to the minute. Truly they are like the magic carpet of Bngdnd—not in fabled form; -however, but in the presentations of the realities of life. BETTER BARGAINS HERE The sales, which have recently been conducted by some’ of the lerding stores of: Bemidji demonstrates one fact; and- that is that greater and. better bargains can be secured at home, than elsewhere. Bemidji stores have acquired: the repu- tation;at-home and in the - surrounding community of bemg fair and of carrying merchandise that is also above par, when price is considered. The sales pull trade from surrounding towns and villages and not only build up the business for the stores that are: doing the advertising, but' stimulate business all around. People find more satisfaction in spend- ing their money at home as a'rule. They keep their constience clear and® in addi- tion have the satisfaction: of knowing that the dollar they spend at home will help “fo Keep up the city, schools and’ churches. It's a case of satisfaction’ with the buyer and the seller alike: ; Y Eighty dollars worth of storm windows went “ca-fluey” in a Bemidji man’s base- ment when his coal bin caved in. Can’t hardly blame the coal strike forthat.
