CAMPAIGN LAUNCHED TOBRING STATE AID TOCOUNTRY SCHOOLS ‘Gold Star Plan,’ Which Places Standardization Before Schools, Is Used Placing in the mail warrants ag- @regating $217,877.40 for schools re- ceiving state aid, Bertha Palmer, state superintendent of public instruction, is launching a@ ca¥‘paign to bring ald to hundreds of counrty schools which are not standardized and receive no state money. Under the law, only standardized schools receive funds from the state to aid in their operation. ‘What is called the “gold star plan” will be put in operation in the insti- tutions which now lack approval of the state superintendent. Large pla- cards bearing the requisites necessary for standardization will be sent to each school. Departments which must meet requirements are health and hygiene, library, grounds and re- creation, educational equipment, teacher, flgg, term and attendance, housekeeping, furniture, and course of study. When these are improved to the point where they may be ap- proved, a gold star will be award for each department. When gold stars are pasted over each depart- ment listed on the card, the school will be accepted as standardized and will be placed on the lst to reccive state aid. With the card before them, it is believed pupils, parents and the teacher will bend their efforts to im- prove so that they may receive state funds. A total of 1.804 schools are receiv- ing state aid in the warrants mailed today. Of this number, 399 are con- | solidated, 53 graded and 1,351 classed as rural or one-room schools. Totals for the fiscal year closing June 30 showed an increase of 152 receiving state aid over the number a year ago. Schools in Logan county increased by the largest percentage, 80 per cent. Divide county embraces the largest number of standardized schools. Throughout the state, 38.4 Per cent of the schools received state aid, the report shows. Schools in Burleigh county will re- ceive $4,914 and in Morton county $5,218.20. RAM EXCHANGE AND SALE SET FOR OCT, 9 Four Counties Cooperating in Project to Be Staged at the Mandan Fair Grounds A ram sale and exchange day is to be put on through the offices of four county agents in this area, October 9, at the fair grounds at Mandan. Cooperating in the plan are A. R. Miescn, Burleigh couniy res sg c.. Newcomer, Morton © county; . Norling, McLean county; and G.-T. Carlson, Kidder. The principal aim back of the project is to get sheep-growing farm- ers together to exchange rams, or to sell off thase they no longer have need for. In addition, some rams will be brought in for sale to such growers as desire to.buy breeds not in the ex- change quotas. There is some de- mand for Shropshires and Hamp- shires in some quarters. Farmers who desire to buy rams at the sale should get in touch with their county agents and arrange for the transactions on the day of the sale. This will be held in the stock pavilion of the Slope fair grounds.

November 6-9, are belng taken by the management. Letters are being sent out to persons and firms interested. A new department will be added this year. The few 4-H club exhibits shown heretofore are to be expanded, this year. into a general display of seeds by the clubs, and these will be shown as a special feature of the show. Premiums are to be offered. and potators, as secd, probably will beNincluded in addition to the grain The management also plans a |seed school in connection with the show. This feature will be conducted by the Agricultural college, and it will be especially for the bene- fit of growers of certified seed. The show, as heretofore. in the ab- sence of the projected community building, will be held in the truck 'show rooms of the International Harvester building. George Will, who has becn looking the corn crop over, says there is plenty of fine corn in the state this season to insure a good show in that respect. The management, therefore, is going ahead in the expectation of staging just as high-grade a show as heretofore. | _——EeE { salle ELECTROLA canal sHKE BI MAKCK TRIBUNE [PALMER ADVOCATES | TRAINING TEACHERS IN RURAL SCHOOLS Required Training of Teachers) Should be Raised From 12 | Weeks to a Year The greatest need in North Da-| kota’s rural schools is the training of teachers who 1andle pupils in the smaller country schools and the supervision of teachers in service, Bertha Palmer, state superintendent of public instruction, said today. She teturned recently from a statewide conference for the promotion of edu- cation in rural schools at Mayville. “Of 8,500 teachers in the state, 5,500 of them teach in rural schools,” she said. “And 3,300 of the rural teachers have training which is less than one year beyond their high school edu- cation. Under North Dakota laws, but 12 weeks of training is required of teachers in country schools. They should have at least a year.” Definite supervision of those teach- ers in service will raise the standards as well, according to Miss Palmer. County superintendents should hire deputies to act as supervisors of schools and aid the girls in handling their positions, she recommend: She pointed out that in jwhere more than 100 teach employed, North Dakota laws permit the hiring of a deputy superintendent. She believes the best way to teach is to “show.” Twelve demonstration teachers, who will bring aid to the country teach4rs, will begin their work throughout the | state September 16 and continue with it for two weeks. They will hold con- | ferences with the teachers, demon- strating teaching methods. At the Mayville conference 49 county superintendents and many deputy Hae ‘a school problems.
