Ackerman Makes Plea For More and Better Public Schools. A plea for higher education of the masses was the gist of the address by State Superintendent .T. H. Acker man at the Masonic Opera house last eving before a large audience of stu dents and patrons of the public schools. Hotter and more schools and branches of instruction are in vestments that will pay handsomely to the people in the future. "The raising of funds for educa tional purposes should not be looked upon as a tax upon the people," said Mr. Ackerman. "It is simply invest ing the people's money for the bene fit of the people. Education produces wealth and in a comparatively few years the money expended for it will be returned ten fold. Throughout the union and the world you will find that the communities, states or coun tries which have the best educational facilities are the greatest wealth producers. "I am glad to see Marshfleld mak ing such strides forward and expect to see a continuance of the city's ad vancement in this way. Manual training and domestic science will have to be added to your course, not because Superintendent Golden or the teachers wish them but because the world demands that the boys and girls of today be equipped along those lines when they enter the busy life of the nation a few years hence. "I want Oregon to spend more mon ey on its educational system and I won't be satisfied until at least as much is spent on education as is now wasted on tobacco and liquors." The last declaration brought hearty applause from the audience. Mr. Ackerman's talk was interspersed with humor and kept his audience in a joyful mood throughout. Superintendent Golden presided. Musical numbers by the pupils of the public schools added to the interest in the program. Superintendent Golden announced the next number of the public school lecture or entertainment course in Marshfleld would be a humorous ad dress by W. I,. Greenleaf, May 2S. Mr. Greenleaf appeared here a few weeks ago as an impersonator and made a great hit with his audience. .iudoio skiilrredic home Coos County Man Delegate to Na tional Republican Convention. Judge C.
