A series of six joint educatio nal conferences has been held during the past week in Buncom be County in which educational agencies of State, county, com- munity, and city made plans and received inspiration for fuller cooperation in the great work of educatic^n. State ^ Superintendent J. Y. Joyner was present at the lasc two of these conferences and was greatly pleased with the confer ences and their results. He states that it is almost imposs ible to estimate the great bene fit which will be derived from these meetings. He highly commends the cou nty of Buncombe on t^e degree i of educational progress which | these meetings reflected, on the i work and spirit of its Board of ; Education, and on the efficiency | of its County Superintendent; and he promises that similar cooperative educational confer ences will be planned and held in a number of other counties of the State. These conferences were held in siji; different localities of the County so as to reach all the Buncombe people. Mr, L. C. Brogden, State Supervisor of Rural Schools,, attended and took part in the discussions of the four first mee.tings,, which Sup erintendent Joyner was preven ted from attepding by conflict ing engagements. The meetings were thoroughly advertised and largely attended, rhe teachers and children of the schools most convenient to. each meeting-place were present,, and a feature of each conference was a parade of the children as they marched, with banners flying,, around the school grounds.. The school cornmitleemen also attended and the meetings, were in reality conf^rences between teachers, children, school-comm- itteeman,, parents,, and other interested citizens. The County Superintendent and the entire membership of the Board of Edu cation attended every meeting. Every phase of educational work was discussed and the sen- j timent of all the meetings was expressed in the slogan: Better Homes, Better Schools, Better Farms and Better Farming, Bet ter Citizenship.
