Not only do Key Westers extend a wholehearted welcome to the members of the 265th Regiment, Coast Artillery Corps, Florida National Guard, but also sense a deep feeling of gratification in the reali- zation that they are here for the third suc- cessive year. Key West feels honored for the Guardsmen to come here at any time but that feeling is intensified by their coming here three consecutive times, particularly so when any other coastal city in the state would be pleased immeasurably to have them as its guests. There are several reasons why the guardsmen have returned here, and prob- ably the outstanding one is because they have not had any complaint to make about their other two encampments in Key West in the last two years. Another reason is because the facili- ties for the encampment in Key West are as good or better than those in any other city in Florida. The living conditions and drill grounds | at Fort Taylor are as good as anybody could wish. Those advantages were stressed by Colonel Woodward at the conclusion of the encampment at Fort Taylor in 1931, and he added that in all probability the guards- men would be back ‘in 1932. And they came back, as he had predicted, and the pleasure of their coming outweighed that of the preceding year. The Citizen hopes that their pleasure will be intensified by their third encampment here. Apparently, the more the guardsmen | know shout Key. West the better they like it. ihnat circumstance is true of many tourists who have come to know Key West well, as a result of which they are here every winter. Let us hope that the guardsmen’s re- gard for Key West will come to be such they will feel that they ‘just have to come back” year after year, as two tourists, who spent their third winter here in 1932-33, remarked in March while visiting in the office of the Key West Chamber of Com- merce. In other words, Colonel Woodward and the officers and men under him may feel assured that Key' Westers are proud of them and feel honored by their annual visits here. Welcome, guardsmen! RURAL SCHOOL PROBLEM Elimination of small rural schools which have outlived their day and'the de- velopment of larger schools that may be made real centers of community life are recommended by Dr. William: J. Cooper, United States commissioner of education. The old one-room schoolhouse served well in the period when sparse settlements and lack of good reads prevented the as- sembling of more than a few pupils in any one place for instruction. If it did not serve well, it at least was the best means avail- able for its purpose. ; Much progress has already been made in the direction of céNsolidated schools, but the movement has not kept pace with the need for better planned instruction. Dr. Cooper believes that all rural schools might well be eliminated in districts where good roads make transportation of pupils for longer distances practicable. Where this is not feasible for all pu- pils, he suggests that those of the sixth grade and above should be transported to the larger schools, which should be made community centers. In no other way will it be possible to give farm children an edu- cation compdrable with that enjoyed by those of the towns and cities—and all chil- dren should have equal opportunities so far as it is possible to provide them. The matter of rural education is one of the most pressing of the problems which confront our educational system. It de- serves the most earnest consideration at the hands of educators and the general public alike. “Anyone can write a novel,”’ asserts an author. And what's more and worse, he usually does —Atlanta Journal. “Secretary Wallace promises Kansas $29,000,000 this fall for its crop failure.
