UNWARRANTED
The report of the costs of con
ducting the four high schools pei
pupil in this county which is prin
ted in another column this week
certainly indicates an unwarranted
use of publie money.
When the cost of educating a
pupil in high school, together
with the cost of getting him or
her to school, reaches $1366 it is
time some different arrangements
were made. The sum is outrage
ous. It is approximately ten times
the state average.*
It is no wonder that school men
in districts where education is
limited by lack o f funds are be-
giaing to obtain some of the wes-
ted funds in the higher cost dis
tricts of whlrii Shemtan county
has several. If this county can
devise no more economical system
of giving high school education
to its youngsters there will cer
tainly be some better system for
ced upon us-
The record of the lowest cost
school, Moro-GV, showed a firfbre
considerably above the state aver
age. This lowest mark was only
obtained by consolidation, more
of which seems to be indicated in
the -light of audited costs. Even
if this county does continue to
countenance such costs, the re
mainder of the state will aeon
make it impossible to use public
money so lavishly while other dis
tricts starve for funds to con
duct schools.
