ing at lid aftcrnoon prog-ri ms.
I itch subject was ably pres 11ted.
1'he debate concerning Bill and
Jim , a leson in citizcn-ship was
yer } ' earnestly discussed and it
seemed that the majority thought
Jim did 1' g-ht.
The round tattle t was very in-
terestin ' . Each teacher told of
sqmething" lie had clone to increase -
crease the interest in his school. I
It was nearly five o'clock when
we adjourned. Fullolle hundred -
dred teachers and man\ ' visitors !

\Vhereas , \Ve belcive the time
has collie when it is almost I1n-
pussible for a person with only a
cOlllmon school education to at-
tain markcd success , inllllcnce / and
w'aIth in our country and
Whereas , It is the duty of our
state to give equal rights and
justice to all classes of citizens
putting into effect our state mot-
to "Equality Before the f..aw"
ancl
Whereas , \Vc believe that
eighth i grade graduate from
country schools are entitled to
have the saute chance to secure it
high school education as eighth
grade graduates from high school
districts and
hercas , \Ve bele'c if such
equality , of opportunity for secur-
ing- a high school were granted ,
attendance at our high schools
would 1.Je doubled several times
and our whole public schools sys-
tem wonderfully strengthened
and far better systematized there-
fore be it .
Resolved l , That we snot earn-
estly endorse House Hall 170 pro-
viding for free attendalce } at
high schools and that we most
earnestly urge our legislators to
do everything within their ppwcr
to secure the passage of this
measure ,
Resolved , That copies of these
resolutions be sent to our comity
and state papers and to our comity -
ty legIslators. Committee
