Do you recall how it interferred with your general progress? When you wanted to go it lagged behind. When you wanted to stop it insisted faith in Montana isn't it fair to the state and to themselves that they go elsewhere where they believe the sum- mons is louder? Montana is on the direct high road to prosperity but its progress will be delayed and urmecessarrily hampered by this human form of the ball and chain. Brothers and sisters, havn't we been singing a mournful song long enough? Let's jazz the next verse a bit. STATE AID FOR SCHOOLS. Nineteen states are convinced that the consolidated school is the best kind of a school for country children and have enacted laws providing state aid to encourage communities to cen- tralize their schools. These nineteen states are: Deleware, Georgia, Iowa, Maine, Michigan, Minnesota, Missou- ri, Nebraska, North Dakota, Oklaho- ma, Pennsylvania, Texas, Vermont, West Virginia and Wisconsin. The laws usually provide that consolida- ted school districta receive aid from the state if they meet certain pro- scribed standards relating to school terms, qualified teachers, adequate buildings and equipment State aid for transportion of pupils seems to be the most popular way of encourag- ing consolidation of schools. That the idea of state aid for consolidation of schools is popular with the people Is evidenced by the fact that most of the laws in the 19 states have been enacted within the last ten years and that there has been a tendency to in- crease the apprepriations in the ntaten where it has been tried. Before leaving the other day on no inspection trip to the west that will last several weeks Secretary Wallace said that the recently enacted credits biN marked a long step toward eas- ier money for farmers. He expects longer loans and lower interest rates. While the new system is being ad- justed the war finance corporation will handle its affairs in the same way as during the pest two years. The general outlook in this coun- try for tifte season is summarized by Director General Jones of the U. S. Entployment Service, thus: \The continued revival of industry, the en- precedented building operations and the extensive road building program that Is on by the several states will afford eatployment for every man who is willing to work.\ progress, wasn't it? For old times sake permit us to in- troduce the human form of that fa- miliar old ball and chain—the pessi- mist, the knocker, the man who says it can't be done and who is doing his utmost to prevent others from mak- ing a success. We have in mind the fellow who professes to believe that farming can't be followed with suc- cess in our state. Where does he get that stuff? This tune that these fellows are whining would get very monotonous if it were not interrupted so often by farmers who are making a success in Montana. This calamity howling is not confined to one set of Montana citizens. Some business men, some doctors, some lawyers, some farmers and some other people are making use of every opportunity to gloat over their fancied \miseries.\ Other farmers and business men are AO busy making good that they have not the time to complain and these are the men who are seeing and taking advantage of the advantages of the untold opportunities which Witness my hand and s (lay of March, 1923.
