For example, there is the question whether you are dealing fairly with our local merchant, who pays taxes nd employs your neighbor. Recently one of The Tribune's comic strips based a whole series of amus- ng incidents on the purchase by a hewlywed, from an old “student” with whiskers, of a floor lamp.

But it serves, also, as a reminder that some of the most pleasant things in life are absolutely and unashamedly ‘useless, Circus clowns don't advance the ‘cause of Communism? Well, they don’t advance the cause of capital- ism, either. They don’t advance the cause of anything—which is why we like them. And a society that has no use for anything useless must be an uncomfortable sort of place in which to live. We can't say we care especially for any numbers in the thermometer except a few in the middle. No self-made man ever left out the working parts. A man is also judged by the scan- dals he keeps up with.

In the February, 1932, number of The School of Education Record, Prof. A. V. Overn presented the results of numerous studies that had a bearing on “A Basis for State Wide School An ar- ticle in The North Dakota Teacher for December, 1931, gave abundant ev- idence to show that gross inequalities exist in school support in the school districts of North Dakota.

EVEN HE. ‘mi is pledged by its constitution to try to give equal educational opportuni- ties to all its children. That inequali- ties exist must be admitted as the re- sult of the evidence of numerous studies cited in the above quoted ar- ticles. Studies also reveal the fact that it is possible to reduce the cost of education somewhat and still main- tain high standards iy the schools if a carefully worked out plan in the schools is devised. These consolida- tions usually imply a different form of school administration from that which is now in existence in the state. ‘ With these facts before us it is now time to propose some remedial meas- ures. Any plan calling for the dis- tribution of state funds to needy dis- tricts is usually met with the argu- ment that it would mean a greater total cost to the state for the mainte- nance of its schools. At the present time assurances must be made to the citizens of the state that educational costs will not be increased, but that better and more uniform opportuni- ties will be offered. The question that confronts the ed- ucational administrators today is, “what can we do that is most practical for the relief of some of the diffi- |culties in which we find ourselves?” Certain principles, probably, should be observed in attempting legislation that will remedy our defects: First: There should be an assur- ance that at present there would be no great increase in the total cost of education for the state. Second: Some survey organiza- tion should be established and power given to the State Department of Pub- jlic Instruction to maintain the pres- ent standards in the schools and at the same time reduce the costs. The surveys and research necessary could be carried on by the Graduate Divi- sion of the School of Education at the ‘University. Third: There should be as little dis- turbance of the present units 6f ad- ministration as possible. The county superintendents and local school boards should be retained and made responsible for carrying out any plan whereby the state would enable them to maintain better schools. If the above three principles can be observed, legislation looking toward a more equitable distribution of the state funds can be easily enacted. The proposals to be presented here are: first, that an estimate of the total cost of education in the state be made in terms of our present expenditures; second. that in the light of this cost, that different tvpes of commun!- ties should spend in educating the boys and girls in their respective dis- tricts; third, that every district should raise an amount of money for the support of its schools in proportion to the valuations in the respective dis- tricts, this rate to be established by making a careful survey of the total available valuations and the total costs for education taking the whole state as a unit; fourth, after a district has |raised the funds available through local taxation, this fund should be supplemented from the state fund in proportion to the needs of the re- spective districts in an effort to equal- ize the opportunities for its pupils; fifth, the funds that are made avail- ‘able to the respective districts should | be granted conditionally on their be- ing extended in the most economical jand efficient manner, this to be de- termined by the State Board of Pub- lic Instruction through surveys made in the respective districts.

This plan could be put into opera- tion without disturbing the local ‘school boards, as administrative units. The present organization in the coun- ties with the elected county superin- tendent could also be retained with slight adjustments in duties and re- sponsibilities. There is the possibil- ity of making the changes necessary for this plan gradually, thus avoiding in presént any sudden our school system. The fundamentals of this plan have already been tried-and seem to be working satisfactorily, es- pecially in the state of Wisconsin. an estimate be made of the amount!

BEGIN HERE TODAY SUSAN CAREY, 19 and very in learnt NOV’ GO ON CHAPTER V HE weeks wore on and soon it ITH THE STORY was June. <A suddenly hot and breathless summer brooded over the city. The lake burned under a summer sun and girls be- gan to wear their thinnest frocks and shadiest hats even in the downtown district. To Susan, young and radiantly healthy, it was a pleasant enough time. She looked her best in the summer heat, her hair curled in little ringiets around her delicate- ly flushed face. She had a new sweater suit of blue knitted staf, and felt very much the young business woman wearing it. Still there seemed no c! her securing a job. Calls came in, dribbled into the office, where @ superior young woman in white linen received them and passed them along to the super stenog- raphers of Mr. Claude Block's up- per class. Susan waited in vain to be called. At last there ar- rived a day when Mr. Block him- self stood in the doorway and beckoned to her. . -“You-—Miss Carey. Will: you come here, please?” Trembling with pleasurable ex- citement, she complied. Mr. Block fingered a penciled slip on his desk. With deep-set black eyes he looked her over, head to foot, and seemed to find the results is- factory. He said, “We've a call for a secrétary at the Mélo Iron Manu- facturing Company. West Lake street. Go up there and do your darndest.” Susan accepted the slip from his fingers. He rapped out, after her, as she turned to leave, “Re- member all I’ve been telling you these months. Chin up, walk like a soldier, smile!” Susan gave a very feebje imita- tion of the military manner as she took leave of the school martinet but her knees were shaking under her. She was not sure the auto- cratic Mr. Block of the super- super business methods would ap- Prove of her just then so she did not wait to find out. Jostling through the State street crowds, through hordes of. ‘women shoppers on the trail of juicy bargains, the girl felt sud- denly uplifted. Mr. Block’s | tures, listened to so wearily for so many days, were jumbled together in her brain in a muddled fashion. One thing was certain, she must not seem timid. She must appear sure of herself at all costs. The facade of the building hous- ing the Melo company was any- thing but appealing. Huddied under the elevated tracks, smoke She advanced and said to the red-haired boy in what she hoped were the proper tones, “I wish to see Mr. Petterman, I am from Block’s Institute.” With a cynical gaze the youth rose and shambled toward the Tear of the store. Susan's eyes, gradually accustoming themselves to the gray light, could just make out in the far corner the figure of @ man at a large, old-fashioned ‘roll top desk. A single bulb, shaded by a folded sheet of letter paper, burned above his head. “Ugh, what a dismal place!” she murmured to herself. Some- how in her dreams of crisp, effi- cient offices there had been noth- ing like this. The boy shuffled toward her and pointing vaguely in the direc- tion of the swinging electric bulb mumbled, ‘Mist’ Petterman’ll see ya.” Susan passed through the gate and picked her way fastidiously over the unbelievably dirty floor to the desk where the man sat. She heard an oily voice say in- gratiatingly, “Sit down, young lady.” Shuddering inwardly, Susan slipped into the armchair beside him. The man called Petterman had a long sharp nose and sal- low skin. His dark suit was crumpled and spotted. He worea stained and weather worn, it seemed to the job seeker to have a slightly sinister air. Susan con- sulted the slip again. Yes, it was the right number. Mentally gird- ing herself for battle, she swung the heavy, dirty glass door inward, eee A RED-HEADED office boy, rs chewing gum, sat behind an ancient partition near the door. Behind him loomed stoves of all sizes and quality. Susan shud- dered. After the heat of the street the place had a fetid coolness that, reminded her of an unused cellar. high starched collar that should have gone to the laundry several days ago. His pale blue eyes, watering under sandy brows, re- pelled the shrinking girl.

We'll teach you. You learn, You won't,” here he smirked horribly again, “find me a hard taskmaster.” Susan shrank into the farthest corner of the oaken chair. “I—I hope not.” eee ETTERMAN hitched his own chair several inches nearer, “Salary’s $18 to start and we work Saturday afternoons.

You'll do, How old are you?” “I'll be 20 in October,” Susan faltered. The answer seemed to please him. He leaned toward her and she caught the repellant odor of old cigars. “Youth’s no sin. t's a fault soon overcome,” he mouthed, managing to come as close as pos- sible to Susan. “We'll get along.” Petterman’s bony hand snappi out and closed over hér round wrist. “Mighty pretty little piece,” he whispered hoarsely. Susan had great difficulty in repressing scream. She got to her feet. There was a brief struggle in the course of which the swinging bulb was broken and the man received a short but stinging slap on the cheek, Through the nightmare Susan was conscious of the red- haired boy staring at her. How she got past the wooden gate, how to endure another moment of the man’s company. . “Experience?” barked the man; suddenly harsh-voiced after the oiliness of his approach. Susan shook her head. “I she managed to pull open the heavy door atd reach the street jshe never knew.

So this was what life downtown was like! Managing by a heculean effort to wink back the stubborn tears she wended her way listlessly back to the commercial school. As Susan joined the smart prom- enade on Michigan avenue she heard an agreeable masculine voice calling her name, “Miss Carey. Why the rush?” She turned to meet the smiling eyes of Robert Dunbar, looking tall and well groomed in gray flannels. His smile faded and, swinging = along beside her, he inquired in a solicitous tone, “‘What’s the mat- ter? You look as though you'd had bad news.” Susan’s forced calm threatened to desert her. Her under lip trembled, “Here, now!” A firm arm steered her into the doorway of a sweet-palace on the avenue. She found herself seated at a tiny marble topped table. “Tell uncle,” said Robert Dunbar masterfully. “What's up? Who's been making you cry?” Ahoy there!, HE told. The words tumbled forth tempestuously. She bit back a sob and described the mon- ster of the stove works in all his spidery ugliness. A short, sharp epithet escaped the lips of her companion. “I beg your pardon!” muttered Robert Dunbar. “I'll go up there and tear the hide off that baby in & few minutes.” The young man’s Jaw was set. He looked equal to the task. 4 Susan shuddered. “No, you mustn’t. Please don’t. Forget I told you! I got away and—” here she regarded her still tin; ling fingers with some pride—“I left the print of these on his face!” “Atta girl!” Young Dunbar r garded her with admiration, But I'd like to leave a few prints my- self.” Susan’s great eyes implored him. “Don’t, please. It would ouly. make Weouble. You're awful- ly kind, though. And I - ciate it.” ae She straightened her hat, pow- dered her nose. “I must get back to school. I'll have to report to Mr, Block.
