The OIJ Sohoolliooss
And The hi
Five years ago we went to!
school in a little poorly furnished j
one-room sehoolhouse with rude |
homo made benches. Of course, i
we could not put up with this
for long.
The first improvement attempt-'
ed was to collect money to buy
patent desks. This attempt,
however, failed and we bought
nu desks that year.
Next year the teacher appoint
ed a committee to collect money
! for a library. Wo were more
'successful in this and bought a
I good -?30 library,
i Our next teacher was one of
[the ablest and best ruialschool
1 teachers in the country. She at
once saw the need of a better
school building and we went to
work for it. We organized a
Women's Betterment Associa
tion, had several entertainments, i
such as ice cream suppers,

oyster suppers, box parties,
etc., and raised a pood sum of
money, and with what the
county and State gavo, an 1 with
the work the men in the district
did, we soon had a schoolhouso
as good as any rural district in i
the county. It h_s a cloak room
at the entrance and plenty of
large windows.
The building is painted white
and green, and is furnished j
with an organ, stove, patent
desks, several large maps, good (
blackboards, an emblem bearing
the school motto. "Excelsior,"
water cooler and individual
drinking cups and several nice
pictures, three which we won
as prizes for doing the most
betterment work.
We have also bought four
new lamps and a large clock
since last school. In the belfry
hangs a large bell and just
; beneath it is the name of the
'school in large black letters.
