Agriculture Building, First in
County, May Bring More
Construction of an agricul
tural school building, the first
in the county, to be erected for
the Leicester school commun
ity, near the site of the present
school, was authorized Mon
day of last week by the county
board of education.
Funds for the erection of the
building, to be devoted entirely
to the agricultural education,
have Been obtained through a
loan from the literary fund of
the state board of education.
The Leicester community
County Superintendent of
Schools, A. C. Reynolds, de
clared Monday, following the
meeting of the board, is the
richest agricultural section in
the county. With the erection
of the new building, and the
employment, for the first time,
of an agriculture teacher for
the school, Leicester will have
educational facilities that are
unsurpassed in the state, he
said.. .
Th w building, plans for
which 'liaver already been
(irawh; wil-eolfrtshvitt Addition

first class. - r
Plans and specifications for"
the new building have been ap
proved by the .tate depart
ment, of public instruction.
The new building will be e
rected largely through' a
$6,000 loan frpm the state de
partment of public instruction.
Morris Kimsey, the new agri-.
cultural' teacher at Leicester,
comes to the county highly rec
ommended. He is a graduate
of State College at Raleigh.
Erection of the new building
at Leicester is expected to pave
the way, within the next few
years, for the extension of agri
cultural work in a number oi
other rural schools of the coun
ty.
