BAKERIS, STUDIO, i
The improvement olM condition of '
the county schools ought to Be felt
in every State. * It is not North Caro
lina /tlone that needs this awakening.
The BChobl houses are small and
shabby, built board structures, one
room and~on? story high. The over
ceiling la . nnf mor? than- nine
feet from- the floor. There is one door
in the end of the house, ("here are six
or eight small windows four to the
side. There are not many schools
that, have blinds and curtains. The
desks are homemade, with perpe
ndicular back? and seats, all the same
fixe .and height. There is a dilapi
dated wood stove, but no wood box,
the. wood .for ")he Ore being plied on
the floor about the stove. The stove
is red hot with rust and dirt, never
having been polished v,and cleaned
since it waa placed Jb posHion to use.
The floor is covered with"Sirt and lit- J
ster from -the wood. The occupied
blac^boafd8pj><? in the schools are
very small, and sometime* not any.'
The blackboard is, however, too high
for the small children to use if ell,
and K is too small for- anything but
a bulletin board. There is seldom a
I teacher's de?k or table. There Is no
, chair. Tha children's hats and bon
nets are Sun*. 01^ nails around the
room. The^wiill and. windows are
steps to the schoolroom. ap Inclined j
PUM 01 dirt pr.tHwtt-tu iftiimu mm
.purpose. The yards are Very muddy
during the- winter, and the "general
Appearance of the place anything but
attractive. . * *
We can amend thls-only by the
cooperative work of tlu? parents, pu
"pila, teachers jvnd the community. It
is with pride that I point to I lie fact
that the children are the moBt
anxious to -help In this jasauUfying
place7~they are proud of their school.
Their books are kept neater, their
face and handricleaaer. and their
?hair is usually combed. Of- course
all are not this way, but the majority
aro-th'ls way, if they have the right
yifiicher. Now let's all come together
and talk tills matter it'"1 "in,:
little money and little work from
each one we ,can make our school
house larger and put In the necessary
supplies and be&utlfy the yards. Then
we will nrif h"nj^.> tr> crowd the poor
little' children jeh the benches and
have somewhere to pat their hats and
lunch boxes.
So many children catch cold on jfo- ,
Jug to" school, by the room, being bo
small and hot.and.xhen going-out So]
the cold, damp air and get chilled.
?It often brings on. contagious dis- 1
^eases. We can vqry Easily beautify L
-the -yards? by putting a wira fpnee I
aronod'the school, aTid setting out |
_some shrubbery.
