Golden, county school suporvlsor, has Just Bout out to tho hoards of directors throughout tho country. Improve ment In rural school conditions has como with tho changed conception that a modem country school house must bo well equipped and tha,t it is cheaper in tho long run to In crease tho Investment also to in-1 elude first class teachers. To illustrate theso points Mr. Gold en emphasizes what somo districts of tho county hnvo dono. "Way up on tho North Fork of tho Coqullle," his letter states, "15 miles from wi ther storo or post offlqo, thero Is an attractlvo uov building equipped SCHOOL E PROSECUTQRHERE PETITIONS ARE RKIXG CIRCU LATED-IX MiVRSIIKlELI) PRO TKSTINO AGAINST KXl'.EXSK OF DKPUTY FOR COOS IAV.

Late last week a messngo wns sent tho Coun ty Court asking them to defer final action on tho question until tho potltlons had been received. This Is Bald to bo tho reason tho court delayed action until April. Judgo Hall this morning dictated a letter to tho County Court expressing his vlows on tho matter. Ho bollovcs that a deputy Is not necessary at this time. "Of course tho pay may not ho enough to tnko all tho offi cer's time," said tho ex-County Judge, "but it tho offlco is nccoptod I bnllovo that It should bo filled without putting pnrt of tho work on some ono clso.

Theso all, bollovcs Mr. Goldon, should bo put In good shnpo and thereafter hold tho teacher to a strict ac countability. Rack to Tho Kni-iii, Improromont of tho country school si stho most Importnnt means of adding In tho "back to tho farm" movomont, says tho suporvlsor, or belor still, to hold tho young peoplo already on tho farms and. who early seek tho city, drlvon thero in many Instances by tho conditions to which thoy hnvo boon subjected, "A beautiful school building will exert a gentle hut persistent Influ ence on all who aro asslclatod with It, olthor In school or out.

All who seo n beautiful and appropriate school building nro Inclined to bo moro loyal to tho causo It repre sents, and less satisfied with ugll noja everywhere." Mony In Schools Well Placed Money expended In tho building or ropnlrlng of schools Is well spent argues Mr. Golden, and ho states his boiler that tho fraction of tho cost that falls on each propertl own er conies back to him many fold In Incrensod valuation of his holdings. In his last instructions to the boards of school dlreetora tho supor vlsor asks them- to maku a personal Inspection of their owl school build ings with a vlow toward putting thorn In first class shapo and In adding each ono to tho alroody growing list of modern Coos County country schools, 0 DEPUTY t WATERFRONT NEWS $$ Not boforo Thursday will tho etonm schooner Carlos leavo out oC herd for San Francisco.
