South Carolina's Predicament Tie little children iorn to the State of South Carolina-how do they differ froin those born to Massachusetts, Ohio or Wash ington? Their little bodies are as sound and as well made; their eves -Ihice with as eager a light: Iheir minds are as fine brain tiextutre. 'omewhere in those litile minls and hearts lie waiting the germtns of a citizen. Ship unsu rp'assed in all the world. let. aloie the three state8 ane'. Iley are heirs b y blood of a capacity developed i roiigh centuries of strugglk and selective survival since thei forefathers set out from th( German forests. And yet, there is a differencE between them and their con 'elporairies In the North an West. Tle difference is no found in these children them selves, but in the elders wh: brought them into the vorld, Mark the difference. In Massachwtietts the elders of the land so keen lv va ine th brains of their little children that they withdraw from all other uses an td devote to the de velopin aid training of those minds no less tln $25 (ach Year for ,ach chii inl their state. Ohilii speinls $22 a n d Washingion $32. The elders of Sonl i Carolina find so ln1n111v otlc-r uses for money that Ihe think more itlupoltanjt thanii this, that, they devote onlv $3 to eicl child per Tear. Thus their state inl this respect stallds below all the states ill thet Olin. Inl M assachlsetts the elders appreciate the possibilities of their children so empliatically that they keep themIl il school 131 days of each year. Those of i,) keep their children in S()hoo(l 113 dlays and those of Washingaton 107 (lays. The lde rs of South Caiolina are sto heedeless of the maltter' or vai ne (otherI uses of their chili dren's time so much more, that they send themi to school only 50 days. Massachusetts people have in vestedl $115 in school lplants anid eq uipmnt for- each pupilI, Ohio $59 and W\ash ingtoni $75. South Carolina h as in vested just $6. Again, not)e ai singular' fact.
