I didn't pay. too much attention until I heard one of.the . principals of a large high school make the remark, "You know, I v'hate. to see the day when we will I: ft have to do away with all the small ?:t high schools." , ., - , f Immediately, r pricked, up my .'.- ears to find out what he meant by jsuch a remark. In this day of spee i iiallnsed training we find in large ; ; high schools, I did not see the point ' :he was making. attended a small high. school myself and honest to i goodness, "I ain't got nowhere." " v After he explained the thing I . S could see what be meant. He, him self, had attended t small high '. school and had gone on to attain a great degree of success In his field. In explaining, it Is true the small . school does not offer the advant-:-ages "of commercial courses, agrl i cultural courses and many other things found in the larger schools but the individual attention a stu : dent gets more than makes up for ' all of this.

In small schools, all the boys have to play on the football team dr . else they can't have one. All the senior class has to be a member of the cast of the senior play. In school work the teachers know the parents of every child under his or her care and feel a certain amount of responsibility toward that child. ::-.;.,;,, w;---'.'-- : - When a boy or girl leaves a small high school he or she really have to work in order to stay in college. In the first place they are scared to death and don't know any better than to work and by the time they learn better they will have reached the age Where they see the necess ity of It. v A;, r;t - - That's the argument my friend, the principal of a large high school, gave me. '!i---.v ij-.,;-:;.-' In bearing, out my friend, the principal,. I am greatly indebted to Mrs. J. B. Stroud, Jr., for the fol lowing. Faison High School, al though a small-high school, has done a fine job for our kids. They are making a record of which we can be Justly proud. : We realize that the small high schools will have to go. Fast trans portation of students, wider variety otaubjects taught, greater economy of operation and many other rea sons make it imperative that a change be made toward centraliza tion of the small high schools but for sentimental reasons and others we hate to see it. The little commu nities built up around the small high schools wWbe missing some thing when their schools are taken away and sent to another communi ty. It will be something that can never be replaced. WITH THE COLLEGE CROWD By Mrs, J. B. Stroud, Jr. .
