Do it The department of public instruction has given and will continue to give much time to the improvement ~1 the elementary schools of the state. The course of study is prepared with the idea in mind that the school exists lor the child. All school management must recognize this. Certain studies are necessary for all children, whatever is to be their occupation in after life. They form the basis for future work. In addition there are other lines of work which should be adapt ed to the school and the community in which the school is located. Practical problems from everyday life are beginning to occupy an important place. In rural schools arithmetic can very well deal with many problems coming from the farm. In thirteen states agriculture is required to be taught, while m thirty-one it is encouraged.. The course aims to concentrate the work of the schools upon the essentials, thus saving time and effort as well as furnishing the best basis for future work. Superintendent
