Schools Belong To The People, Says
Editor At Meeting Of School, Press
By MISS ESTHER SEAY
Publicity Chairman
Macon N. E A Unit
"Hie schools belong to the
people. How we solve our school
problems today will determine how
Maconians will be living years
from now. Macon County is a
wonderful place in which to live
and It promises to be a much
greater one In the years to come.'
These were the words of Editor
Weimar Jones, of The Franklin
Press, who spoke last Thursday
to a meeting of publicity chair
men from the county's schools
and P.-T.A-S. He discussed the
purpose and background for
gathering and reporting news on
what is happening in the schools
today, and related activities. He
told of Press plans to give ex
panded schools coverage.
"All are interested in what is
happening in the learning pro
cess." Mr. Jones said. "What are
children learning? Why are they
learning a certain thing in a cer
tain way? . . ?. We are convinced
that our children must have the
best education possible, not as
Carolinians, not as Southerners,
but as citizens of the United
States.
"The teachers serve the public: I
The Press represents the public. |
Our mutual interest ? the child ?
is the purpose for which our
schools were founded," Mr. Jones
said.
J. P. Brady, news editor of The
Press, cited two reasons why The
Press is limited in the coverage
It can give the schools. "One
limitation is an operational, or
mechanical, one (personnel, time,
budgets) . The other is The Press's
obligation to other items of public
interest.
"In fairness to everyone, we at
times must sidestep the more
routine activities in order to give
the public thorough coverage on
important activities in other fields,
like politics and government."
Mr. Brady said "too many
teachers take their tasks for
granted; yet, the public doesn't
realize the endlessness of a
teacher's job."
Activities suggested by The
Press speakers which are of public
Interest include enrollments, at
tendance, new methods of teach
ing the "tool" subjects, honor
rolls, lunchroom activities, and un
usual happenings in a child's day.
Mrs. James P. Cunningham, a
publicity representative for Car
toogechaye Parent-Teacher Associ
ation, said: "Many parents are
not consciou?s of the time a teach
er spends In supervising the child's 1
lunch program, or the time and i
responsibility connected with bus
duty and transportation of chil
dren to and from school, or all
of the collections of money for ,
various reasons, or the many, many
times principals have to be called |
away from their classes to super
i vise necessary activities."
The meeting was held in the
library of Franklin High school
At the suggestion of The Press,
schools and P*>T.A.'s have ap
pointed reporters. They include
Mrs. Cunningham and Mrs. Mar
tha C. Shields, Cartoogechaye;
Miss Elizabeth Meadows, Franklin
P.-TA. and Franklin Elementary;
Miss Nora Moody, Iotla School;
Mrs. (Catherine A. Crawford. East

^ Here's Why..
? ?-***"* colleges and top dairymeiy
have proved that for every pound of flesh a dry cow
geins, she'll give an extra 12 to 15 lbs. of milk her next
lactation. 100 lbs. extra flesh on a dry cow returns an
extra 1.200 to 1,500 lbs. of milk.
Just 300 to 500 lbs. of "SQ" Dry & Freshening -plus
roughage ? will do it. Is that a good deal? You bet it is!
