PAGE SIX The Htgblanb Park Pregs « (fell Brothers Florenu- Warner Ubert Levy tme year . , Six Months Three Months Entered as second clnss matter March 1, 1911, NUMBER In last week’s Press there was printed a report of a meeting of the Elm Place Parent-Teacher Association at which certain startling facts were set forth regarding our Illinois school sys- tem. and at which a committee was appointed to bring the matter to the attention of the public and in particular to urge our legis- tutors and school authorities to take. the necessary action to bring about a better state of affairs. It is stated that while lllinois is the second state in the L‘n- ion in wealth it is the twenty-fourth in educational rank. That the schools of the state are so inadequately supported that they are running into debt at the rate of fifteen million dollars per annum. That one hundred and sixty thousand illinois children are now being hotlsed and taught in insanitary and unsafe build- ings. That three teachers out of four are umlertrained and that nearly all are umlerpaid. I AI A...J..4;.... .‘UGIU an air: ull‘l‘l t'ul‘n. This certainly is a startling indictment and the resolution passed h); the meeting calls for emergency legislation to create: a fund of twenty million dollars fur distribution among the: schools of the state and for more adequate support of our State I'niversity and our normal schools. The mere recital of these facts, which are easily verified, ought it‘- be enough to arouse the people of Illinois to action and to we ate a public sentiment which will redeem our state from this disâ€" graceful situation and to put it where it belongs in the front rank"1 of our American Commonwealths in educational atlministration.‘ (‘heap schools are about the costlieh‘t and most Wastetul instiâ€" tutions it is possible to maintain, for since the hope: of the future lies with the children of today it is clear, that if their training for life and citizenship is neglected and skimped the inevitable result will he a disastrous one. i We are proud of Highland Park schools and they are so far in advance of the general average of the schools throughout the state that we are apt to be blinded to the conditions which exist elsewhere, and to rest in a condition of self satisfaction. And vet even these schools receive inadequate financiall support and have to struggle against conditions \thch tend to lower their itlicienc}. They are int-Vitalily affected by the conditions which prevail elsewhere an‘d l’." the unintelligent and parsimonious tharacter ot' the legislation under which they are operated. We cannot attord to have any educational systcrd short of the best and we cannot uiiord to employ underpaid and‘inadequately trained teachers ; We owe it to our children to give them event opportunity possible to tit and prepare themselves for useful and self-respectâ€" in}: manhood and Womanhood and nothing less than this should he the program of our system of public education. Finally we thank our Women's clubs. and our parent-teacher ztSSi'UClallnll> for calling our attention to the present disgraceful situation which prevails in the state of Illinois. ‘ DAYLIGHT SAVING Tllt‘ daylight saving program which. went into etfect in Chiâ€" .ago and its suburbs on Easter Sumlay'morning and which is tt ’ ‘ A - ‘ » v- u I.‘ . ublished weekly bf JOHN L.
