It is the business of the State to as- sure the education of all her children. Birthplace or residence should not de- prive one of an education, nor should it entitle him to greater educational advantages than another. As far as possible every Missouri child should have equal preparation for life. The proposed amendment will add to the annual appropriation of one- third of the revenues of the State for the common schools. It will make it possible for the State to aid more weak country school districts. It will increase the efficiency of those now giving excellent service. It will al- low the General Assembly to encour- age improvement and to stimulate local endeavor. ~ High schoolsare truly the ‘‘people’s colleges.”’ By them is brought to an increasing number of Missouri youth the advantages which bring to them greater opportunity.

In practically the whole state no high school tuition is required of country pupils. Kan- sas gives $75,000 annually to her high schools. Iowa $50,000, other states from $250 to $2,500 to each school in proportion to its needs and to the This amendment would allow Missouri to do for her children what other states do for theirs. And Missouri’s children are worthy of the best that can be given them. The amendment would allow the legislature to make appropriations for special instruction in agriculture, and in industrial work, in both town and country. It could provide for kindergarden and night schools in the larger towns and cities. The Normal Schools train the teach- ers who go out into the common school system. The increasing de- mands upon the teaching profession require additional training which Normal Schools alone can give. At the present time the Missouri Normal Schools are taxed to the limit of their capacity. During the summer of 1912, 5,000 teachers were in attend- ance fitting themselves for work in the common schools of the State. The attendance at the University is constantly increasing, and it is rend- ering each year more service to the State. Its Teachers’ College has trained more than 2,500 teachers dur- ing the past eight years. The agri- cultural college is foremost in helping to increase the yield of the farm lands of the State, and makes and saves the farmer of the State annually as much as the entire University costs Missouri To Defeat Winter Ills START NOW Susceptibility to colds, sore throats, tonsilitis and such, indi- Charter Oak Wagons Janesville Plows FOR SALE BY Mrs. Mary Foster Bryner and many others.
