A JJLJM JLtVP... V v v if - EXTENSION WORK. Jtiuslon County Employs anElllcleot f oman as Supervisor ol Sural Schools. Johnston County has not only a capable and progressive county superintendent devoting his en tire time to the supervision and administration of his schools.but in addition, has a well trained and efficient woman as Supervi sor of Rural Schools. The duties of this Supervisor are; (1) To aid the county superintendent in planning and conducting his township and county teachers meetings; (2) To devote the most of her time during the school term to not more than ten rural Bchools. These ten special schools are to be selected by the county superintendent in representative parts of the county. The super visor is to identify herself with these schools and the communi ties making them demonstration schools, showing what a real country school can do under effi cient teaching and supervision, and what it must do if it meets the needs of country life. By having only this small number of schools the supervisor can re main several days in each school and in each community on each visitation. She is enabled to remain long enough in each school to observe carefully the teacher's method of work, the organization and management of the school; and is thereby enabled through pri vate conference to suggest bet ter methods of teaching, better methods of grading and classify ing the Dupils and better meth ods of echool management. In those subjects in which the teach er seems to be the weakest, the Supervisor takes her classes and shows her how these subjects can be effectively taught. The Supervisor also works to bring about a closer relation between the work in the school and the life in the community by organ izing the boys in the upper gram mar grades into a Bovs' Corn Club and directing their work, and by organizing the girls in the upper grammar grades into a Girls Dome-sticClub and direct ing their work in the home in cooking searing and home sani tation. In addition to her work with the teacher and the children in the school, the Supervisor works with the men and women in the community, stimulating their interest in and organizing, and directing their efforts for imoroved school conditions, bet ter buildings, better equipped, more attractive and more sani tary school yards. (3) After the close of these special schools, the Supervisor renders the county superinten dent whatever clerical assistance he needs in his office; (4) Dur ing the months of July and Au gust she directs the Girls Tomato Club Work. Stimulated and organized through this closer and more vital supervision, four commun ities in Johnston are now plan ning to employ an expert domes tic science teacher to divide her time with these four committees next session. As a further demonstration of the effective ness of this closer supervision, all the special schools with which Miss Kelly, the Rural Supervisor of Johnston County, worked last session are now either adding an extra room for an extra teacher or building a new building out right Following Johnston's lead, the following counties are planning to employ a Rural School Super visor to do a similar work: Mc Dowell.
