(Continued (1*910 Page Three)
th? state has assumed a supervision
which has stimulated within the lead
ers la every county a desire to make
of their advantages Among those du
ties assumed may be mentioned ?
Teacher training establishing of Nor
mal schools for the eastern and west
ern section; encouraging summer
schools, giving credit and Increase In
salary for attendance; assumed the
certification of all techers, thereby
relieving the ? County -Superintendent
of many vexing problems; paying
teachers according to the state salary
schedule; encouraged and emphasized
the Importance of rural education by
consolidation of one or two teacher
school; a rural and a high school In
spector and a county wide plan of
organization In every county. In ad
dition to the above, the state has not
been Idle remembering the physical
condition of Its children since It has
provided for Tonsil and Adenoid and
Dental clinics which has a tendency
to enlighten the people as to the neces
sity of better teeth and as to the re
tardation to growth ? both physical
and mental caused by defective tonsils
and abnormal adenoids.
It would not be wise to fail to men
tion that hand in hand with education
the Bystem of better roads has meant
a great deal as to the greater number
of average dally attendance.
When we come to consider what
our county lias and is doing In mak
ing the average dally attendance we
must not overlook the fact that If we
had not at the helm a wide awake
and efficient Superintendent. our
school system could hardly have reach
ed what It has, for the response with
which the Ideals of the state educators
was met has borne results since du
ring the past ten years, the average,
dally attendance has doubted. Throujpfi
the Superintendent, programs have
been carried out with the assistant
of the County Welfare Officer, Home
Demonstration Agent, Moving Picture
Shows at Schools, and Farm Demon
stration Agent Which have enlight
ened and Impressed upon the parents
and children, the necessity of lending
their assistant to tbeir own school.
Among the thlRgs which the ad
ministration of the encumbent Su
perintendent has emphasized may be
mentioned consolidation of schools as
far as possible, better trained teach
ers Assoelatloneorsdhilutawypfphyyy
ers, county wide system or high school
and transportation, Teacners meetings
? weekly and monthly. Parent Teach
ers Association. Worn a-: s Betterment
Association, longer school terms, at
tractive school grounds, well equipped
buildings, comfort of the teachers
and pupils, cooperation of Board of
Education. Superintendent, School
Committee, faculty, parents and pupils.
To the teachers of any county a
great part of credit is and v.- 1 1 1 be
due ? for with a well trained and
equipped- faculty who have the fnterest
of the school, community, social and
religious activities and pupils fore
most and teaching as a profession
rather than a stepping stone, they
will strive to carry out the above
plans.
But In ordeer for these people to be
effective, the county has not been
neglectful In providing a means of
remunerating them ? since it provides
for about 5-6 of the teachers salaries
for 6 months school term and a build
ing and Incidental fund and repayment
of loans.
The goal Is not yet reached and
will not be In some time but as time
progresses and men with foresight
and best Interest of education fore
most at the head of our adncit-onal
system and competent teachers In
tvery schcol, there will be grerc strides
made In the next few years providing
the financial status of the state
remains as It has been in the
T&st few years.
