THIRTY-SEVENTH ANNUAL REPORT Of THE DEPARTMENT OF EDUCATION TO THE GENERAL ASSEMBLY Of THE 'STATE OF GEORGIA fOR THE School Year Ending Dec. 31 st, 1908. CRAS. P. BYRD STATE PRINTER, ATLAl\TA, GA. ATLANTA, GA., June 1, 1909. To His Excellency, HOKE SMITH, Govenwr of Georgia. DEAR' SIR :-1 have the honor of transmitting to you for submission to the General Assembly the ThirtySeventh Report of the Department of Education. This being the last report to be submitted by this Department before the close of your administration, I beg leave to express my sincere apprecia,tion of your loyal support and cooperation in every effort to increase the efficiency of the Common School System, and my gratitude for your ready sympathy with the great mass of teachers and school officials throughout the State. I trust you will find in the report many evidences that your solicitude for the welfare of the schools has not been in vain. Very truly yours, JERE M. POUND, State School Commissioner. j j j j j .j j j j j j j j j j j j j j j j j j j j j j j j j j j j j j j j j j j j j j j j j j j j j j j j j j j j j j THE THIRTY-SEVENTH ANNUAL REPORrr OF THE DEPARTMENT OF EDUCATION TO THE GENERAL ASSEMBLY OF THE STATE OF GEORGIA. Gentlemen of the General Assembly: The school year which closed December 31, 1908, was one of marked progress. This fact will become readily apparent on a little study of the accompanying report. The volume contains not only the statistical matter required by statute, but much other information, all of which it has been a care to this Department to present in as attractive and accurate a form as possible. I realize, however, that the report is imperfect. Under existing conditions, such a report must always be so. The law that requires the Department to make an annual exposition of educational operationsJ:hroughout the State, does not require all school officials, from whom data must be sought, to give it, or, at least, does not penalize them for not giving it. The result is that the annals of some county and city systems are always wanting, in spite of repeated efforts to secure the same. From this report, the records of one county and ten city systems are absent, which reduces the totals and averages of the State and prevents the submission of as accurate and comprehensive a showing as is desirable. But, apart from these, it is believed that no previous report of the Departm~lPt w~s ~v~r plor~ trustworthy. 6 Statistics are dry reading at best; and it is only when they are studied in a comparative way that their real meaning is disclosed. Studied in this way, they show the direction and drift of educational tendencies, the amount of progression or retardation, and indicate the causes of all these things. This thought determines me to institute something of a comparison between the report of 1907, compiled by the Department last year, and that of 1908, now submitted. THE CENSUS. Late in the spring of 1908, the State Board of Edu- cation, obedient to law, ordered a census of the educable children,-that is to say, children between six and eighteen years of age,-taken throughout the State. The returns are now printed for the first time, and show that during the five-year 'period between 1903"and 1908 the number of children increased 32,33~ and that the total number entitled to the benefits of the public school fund is 735,471. The percentage of increase is about five per cent., or one per cent. per annum. Of the total, 365,570 are white, and 337,563 negro children. White children, then, increased during the five-year period 20,707, or at the rate of a little more than one per cent. per annum, while negro children increased 11,681, or about three-fifths of one per cent. per annum. During the five years which preceded 1903, the whites increased at the rate of seven and three-tenths per cent. and the negroes at the rate of five and seven-tenths per cent. It would seem, there- for, that the negroes, always less in number than the whites, are not holding their own relatively but are pt~adily falling behind in th~ r~te of ipcre~ser j ... - - 7 SCHOOL ENROLLMENT. In the matter of school enrollment for the year 1908, the records of the County School Commissioners show that the names of 508,403 children are on their books. This is sixty-nine per cent. of the whole school population. Of these, 306,891 are white children and 201,512 are negro children. About seventy-nine per cent. of white children and fifty-eight per ce:nt. of negro cbildren,as shown by these figures, enrolled themselves in the schools. There is here, then, no justification for the oft repeated statement that negro children in Georgia are deriving a greater benefit from the common school fund than white children. The record reads just the other way. It is often used as a reproach against the common schools that they reach only sixty-five or seventy per cent. of the school population. Let us examine that proposition a little more closely. I have just shown that about eighty per cent. of the white children are in school and that only fifty-eight per cent. of the negroes have enrolled themselves. The average for both races is sixty-nine per cent. This leaves thirty-one per cent. to be accounted for. It must be remembered that the school age is from six to eighteen years and, therefore covers a period of twelve years. But the common schools have been interpreted to be elementary schools of seven grades. Assuming, then, that a child completes a grade each year (and this can easily be done), he will complete the entire common school course in seven years or by the time he is thirteen years of age, if he should begin school at six and continue through consecutive years. There will then be before him five years of the common 8 school age in which he can not attend a public school because he has already received the schooling to which he is entitled at public expense. Now, it may fairly be assumed, likewise, that there are nearly as many children between thirteen ana eighteen years of age as between eight and thirteen. If this be so, fully fortytwo per cent. of children of school age have passed beyond thirteen years,the age at which they might have finished the common school studies; and, doubtless, very many have really done so. Let us say, then, that onethird of the forty-two per cent. have. If this is a true allowance, then, practically all the whites are accounted for, as it has already been shown that seventy-nine per cent. of white children were enrolled last year; and fourteen per cent. added to seventy-nine per cent. makes ninety-three per cent., leaving only seven per cent. of whites comparatively untouched by the schools. This small group alone is apparently not in school regularly, and constantly recruits the lingering and sinister band of white illiterates. This band must be destroyed. That this reasoning is approximately accurate, is borne out in a measure by the census which shows that of white children about one-third of the number mentioned, or two and four-tenths are totally illiterate. A similar deduction would account for about seventy-two per cent. of negro children, leaving the whereabouts of twenty-eight per cent. unexplained except upon the hypothesis that they were not in school last year and do not attend school regularly at any time. The census would seem to confirm this hypothesis, too, for it shows about one-third of twenty.:.eight, or nineund three-tenths per cent. of illiteracy among negro children over ten years of age. This is, however, not a source of wonder, for the negro is hardly two generations removed from 9 slavery and the economic condition of the race would seem to keep an even larger proportion of negro children permanently out of school. ILLITERACY. As to illiteracy in Georgia, our census demonstrates that eleven and five-tenths per cent. of children over ten years of age can not read, which means that there are still 84,380 illiterates in the State, of whom about 20,000 are white children, and for the neglect of whom there is no adequate excuse. This is simply appalling, when we consider that we have been working on the problem of public education for white children one hundred and twenty-six years and have maintained our common school system in its present form for more than forty years. To be sure, the systematic lack of system iIi educational affairs required by the intense individualism of our people, is chargeable with much of the inefficiency of our schools and the lack of results attained by them; and a wise reorganization of them and a more adequate supervision are much to be desired. But even then there will remain a small portion of our . people to whom education makes no appeal. Since the last previous census in 1903, the total of illiteracy has been reduced only one and six-tenths per cent. At that rate, we shall wait fifty years yet and expend more than $100,000,000 before we shall banish illiteracy entirely, and be rid of its curse. I know the conservatism of our people and their natural aversion to governmental interference with the home and its affairs, and I have been slow to come to any conclusion that the State should add its authority to parental control over children. But to temporize longer with the sodden ignorance or stupid indifference of a few whites, who, wanting in a Senl;} 10 of parental responsibility, still deny their children the most natural and rudimentary rights, is unpardonable folly. In this illiterate residuum is where society most easily and most often breaks down and government fails. It will cost far more in money and in tears to punish the steady flow of criminals that issue from it than to educate the whole mass. But to educate it is vastly safer, juster, more humane. If we may tax the ninety or ninety-five percent. of our people and distrain and sell their property for public education, why, by a parity of reasoning, may we not compel the untaught few who defy society and its conventions, to avail themselves of the opportunities which this taxation procures for them and their children? Enforced school attendance is a complement to taxation for educational purposes and a supplement to Child Labor Laws. We have long since admitted the principle. Why shrink from a mild and beneficent application of it? The schools have done what they could; and, in spite of them, ignorance, as is its nature, still propagates and perpetuates itself. It would seem, therefore, high time for the State to assert its authority and lodge with school officials, to be used in their discretion, some reasonable power to regulate school attendance and to rescue neglected children from enforced ignorance and consequent depravity, giving them, notwithstanding their parents, a chance in life. A sentiment of this kind is rapidly forming in Georgia; and, unless it is heeded, it will ultimately crystallize into an imperative demand for drastic compllisory education. And the demand, once come, like Banquo's ghost, will not down at your bidding. 11 HIGH SCHOOLS. One unmistakable indication of increasing efficiency in the common schools is to be found in the fact that there were 17,253 children in High Schools in 1908 as against 14,936 in 1907. This is an increase for the year of fifteen per cent., which is highly satisfactory and shows that common schools are stimulating, as they ought, a demand for an education beyond what they can supply. But there is something of a tragedy here, too. If they should become increasingly efficient and should develop ambitions for a higher scholarship in a still greater number of children, can those ambitions be gratified? Are there High' Schools enough and convenient enough? Let us see. It is almost universally regarded as a rule that of ten pupils who enter the elementary schools, one will work his way through and enter schools of the secondary class. Since we have 735,471 educable children, under the rule one-tenth of them ought to be set apart as ultimate secondary school pupils. One-tenth is 73,547. But against this we can show in this our best year only 17,253 pupils pursuing secondary courses. The reason is obvious. There are only 306 secondary schools in the State. There is, therefore, but one school of this rank for each 2,500 children; and according to the rule each school ought to enroll 250 pupils. The record shows that the aver.age school enrolled between fifty-five and sixty pupils, or about one-fifth of that number. Now, all who are conversant with educational conditions in Georgia, know that towns and cities are supporting High Schools and that the country districts are dependent upon urban kindness for education of that grade. This is true, because rural population is 12 so sparse and rural values are so low that generally, if taxed for the purpose, they would not yield enough revenue to adequately support an expensive High School. This might be remedied if public school money could be used additionally. But the Constitution forbids its use in any except elementary schools. The result is that the great open country is not supplied with High Schools and that country children are estopped in great part from receiving that type of education. This would not matter so much, if there were enough of such urban schools in the State or if every town maintained one. But this is not true. The field is so large that twice as many and four times a~ good schools would not overwork it. We have 300 High Schools-we need 600 at least. But we shall never have them until an unfavorable Constitution is amended, so that every community that desires to do so may use, under proper restrictions, the public money in part for High School purposes. This matter so vitally affects our rural population it is amazing they have submitted to the discrimination so long without a protest. SCHOOL FUND. It was reported last year that $3,011,768.46 constituted the total available fund for common school purposes during 1907. During the succeeding twelve months that sum grew to $3,786,830.74, which was an increase of about $775,000 in a single year-a truly admirable achievement! The total fund is made up of the State appropriation, of local tax moneys, of tuitional charges, and of convict hire. But by far the largest increase was in the item of local tax. This shows that our people are rapidly learning that educa- 13 tion is not only a State, but a community problem and that in local taxation lies the only hope of all men, and particularly of men whose means are limited, that their children may have adequate educational advantages. Learning this, they are becoming interested in a lively way and are relying as never before upon themselves in working out proper conditions for their several communities. But, while this is true, we are far, very far yet from doing all that our people might do in developing and maintaining better schools. The per capita of each child for 1907, based upon the legislative appropriation for that year and the census of 1903, was $2.434. For 1908, it was $2.825. This increase of thirty-nine cents per child is responsible for the great progress manifest throughout the entire common school system and in most of the counties of the State. That progress was still furthe"r quickened by the increase of the per capita to $3.046 for the current year. Unless all sign~ fail, the present year will show in all respects the greatest growth the system has known and that the total school fund will go to quite $4,000,000. This ought to encourage the General Assembly to deal still more generously with the schools, for the more they have been helped, the more they have helped themselves, and for the additional reason that Georgia still remains too low in the list of States with respect to the amount contributed to public education. SCHOOL HOUSES. We built last year 292 schoolhouses at a total cost of $614,398. The average value of these houses was more than $2,000. At the same time 462 houses were repaired at a cost of $63,931. ~ About $700,000 were. spent then, in permanent improvements during the 14 year. Of this amount, comparatively little was derived from the school fund. Possibly, three dollars for every one received from other sources came as a contribution directly from the pockets of the people who built the houses, demonstrating their interest in the matter. To show what an accomplishment that was, let me illustrate. The average duration of the schools last year was 115 days. For each school day, two and one-half houses were built and four patched, painted, or otherwise repaired; and at the same time nearly threequarters of a million dollars were added to the value of the common school plants throughout the State. If the facts here set forth indicate anything, it is that the days when' children must be educated anywhere in loghouses and shanties scarcely fit for cow barns, are passing away in Georgia and that henceforth our people will be content with nothing less than the very best possible lJhysical surroundings for their children. They are beginning to see that environment is quite as potent a factor in education as is teaching; and, in order to still further encourage the building of good sc"hoolhouses, it would be well to amend the law so as to empower school boards to employ the public fund in the erection of such. This would give education a tremendous impetus in all sections of the State. A fundamental need of every community is a good~school house. No community can thrive in any way without one; and until all are supplied with such, we certainly may not expect any educationa) advancement. Not all the money of the Treasury, poured into some communities of the State, would produce a perceptible uplift in the social and educational status, if, as a condition of receiving such bounties, it were required that 15 existing buildings alone should be used and no others built. Good buildings, I repeat, are a fundamental necessity; and our Boards of Education may be trusted, I think, to build them wisely. The only reason why they were ever denied the power to do so was because it was desired to save all the money possible from scant appropriations for the actual maintenance of schools. That policy has been tried conclusively and it has failed. Many communities are still disgraced by disreputable buildings; and in no such community is there, or can there be, a good school. Let us try a more liberal policy and see if better results will not quickly come. CONDEMNING SCHOOL SITES. Furthermore, complaint has reached me a number of times this year that in certain districts, where everything was ready for school improvement and money in hand for building, eligible sites could not be had either by gift or purchase, property owners, generally for extremely selfish, but sometimes for spiteful, reasons, refusing to part with such lots as would be suitable. In one or two instances, a ~ot could not be secured anywhere in the district and no school could be operated at all. In these cases, it seems that the Board of Education, in executing the law requiring the county to be accurately districted, have laid off boundaries which did not please certain large and possible absentee landholders, who retaliated by combining in a refusl;l,l to convey to the Board any of their holdings whatever. In other instances, sites could be had but they were of the poorest and most unsatisfactory kind. To remedy a possible recurrence of such things and to aid school officials in locating schools properly, I recommend that Boards of Edu~;ltion be empowerl:ld to condemn sites 16 whenever it may be necessary to further the interests of the schools under their supervision. LENGTHENED SCHOOL TERM. By far the most significant evidence of the increasing efficiency of the common schools and of the awakened interest of the people generally is to be found in the lengthening of the average school term from 115 days to 132 days, which occurred last year. This was an addition of seventeen days, or almost an entire month, in a single year and was a consummation greatly to be longed for. It could not have been brought about by the will of the Boards of Education alone. They would not have ordered such a thing over the protests of the 'people and they did not have money enough to do it, if they had desired. It could have been done only by the cooperation and financial assistQ,nce of the people themselves, showing that they are becoming eager and solicitous -that all child'reneverywhere in the State shall have the best possible opportunities for self-improvement. If the term can be still further lengthened to. seven and a half or eight months, it will be as long as it probably ever can be with profit in the rural districts. It is already nine months long in all of our towns and cities practically. SALARIES OF TEACHERS. There is one further improvement to be noted. It will be observed that there was a slight increase in the average monthly salary paid teachers. The increase amounts to about one dollar per month for all classes of teachers. This seems trifling; but, when it is remembered that these teachers were employed nearly a month longer than they were during the previous year, the in- 17 crease becomes quite respectable. If we can keep up the advance that is being made in the matter of salaries and lengthening of school terms for a few years, we shall solve in a measure the most serious problem that confronts the common schools, the problem of procuring and retaining competent teachers. Short terms, low salaries, uncertain payments, and an uncertain tenure of position have very nearly driven capable teachers out of the profession, and delivered the schools over to young, untrained, and untried men and women -chiefly women. It is not meant that we are yet paying satisfactory salaries or that we have reached a point in the upward tendency where we may rest. There can be no rest in this particular, without irremediable havoc to the schools, until teachers are paid salaries somewhat equivalent to what is given for service in other lines of endeavor. At present, the annual income of teachers from their labors is almost equivalent to. that of cooks and butlers, and is a reproach to school systems and the shame of the teaching profession. In this connection it may be well, gentlemen, to direct your attention again to the financial arrangements for the payment of teachers in vogue in the State. The last General Assembly made an appropriation more generous in amount for the schools than had ever been given before, and ordered that this sum should be taken directly from the Treasury and from funds not otherwise disposed of. The provision of a lump sum direct from the Treasury was a very kindly act, for, before that time, the school appropriations liad been made up of financial odds and ends and there was always more or less uncertainty about the amount and the receipt of it. Thljre is still uncertainty in this last particular, for 18 we are still running the schools on a credit, there never being money enough in the Treasury "not otherwise appropriated" until the taxes of the year are collected in midwinter. The result is that while the teachers do the greater part of their work during the first of the year, they are not paid until the last of the year, or the first of the following. BORROWING MONEY. From this distressing condition, there are but two means of escape and both of them are distressing. One is for the teacher to discount the acceptance of the County School Commissioner as best she can, which is usually at the rate of from ten to twenty-five per cent.; and the other for the County Board of Education to borrow money and pay her promptly. While, even with this last device, she had to pay the interest, her salary being reduced for that purpose, it was a distinct kindness to her that Boards of Education employed it; and it had become a very general practice of Boards throughout the State. But recently, the Court of Appeals, in the case of "The Board of Education of Miller County vs. Fudge et al.; and Williams, County School Commissioner, vs. Board of Education of Miller County," held, "The power to make arrangements for the efficient operation of schools, conveyed by Section 1363 of the Political Code of 1895, does not include the power to borrow money." In the face of this decision, many Boards have refrained from all effort to procure money otherwis~ than from this Department for the prompter payment of teachers and they are not to be blamed; for it could be secured only by the members of Boards pledging t~eir personal credit. Now, if these Boards are to be held responsjbl~ for th~ faithflJ;1 and 19 efficient operations of the schools under, their ~per vision and if the State proposes to continue the slipshod methods of financing the schools it has employed since their inception, Boards of Education, by every dictate of .reason and common sense, ought to be vested with the power to borrow money in their official capacity and without becoming personally liable for it. If this is not done, it is hard to see how the schools can be operated at all during certain seasons or how they can ever be maintained anywhere or at any time satisfactorily. No private business could be conducted in this fashion a week. To accentuate the necessity of vesting Boards of Education with this power, I beg leave to cite the following facts. It is now the first of June. Every county in the State has operated its schools for a greater or less period during the spring, some for five full months, none probably for less than three months. .F'rom onehalf to three-fourths of all the time which the public fund will allow has been taught out. Only twenty per cent. of the year's apportionment has been paid. 'the Treasury, by reason of the withdrawal of nearly a million dollars in February for pensions, barely allowed that. How then can teachers get the balance of what is due them before next December unless through the Board's willingness and power to borrow? W"illingness! I go further, and say that if a Board operates its schools at all and has not money from the State to pay promptly for service rendered, it ought to borrow; and that duty ought to be unmistakably expressed in the letter of the law. 20 THE McMICHAEL BILL. The McMichael Bill, which was amended into its present form August 22, 1907, provides that Count), Boards of Education shall layoff their counties into districts of approximately sixteen square miles in area and that when this is done, under orders from the Board, voters of such districts shall elect local trustees. This Department is informed that very frequently, unless a local tax has been voted, the people esteem the office of local trustee so little that they pay no attention to the orders for election and allow it to go by default and that, in other cases, men out of sympathy with the County Board are chosen for the trusteeship and create trouble. The office of school trustee is really an important one and ought not to be discredited in either of the ways above mentioned. To preserve its usefulness, then, it would seem to be wise to amend Section II of the McMichael Bill, so as to allow County Boards to appoint trustees in all districts where local taxation does not prevaiL Such an amendment would enable County Boards to keep all their districts completely organized, give them the advice, counsel, and sympathy of men whom they could perfectly trust, and might even prove a great stimulus to local taxation for educational purposes. This may seem a somewhat trivial matter, but in the administration of a county's system of schools, the amendment would mean a great deal and would make for peace, harmony, and efficiency. BOOK ADOPTION. The first contract for boo15:s, made in 1903, under the authorization of the Uniform Text-book Bill, expired December 31, 1908. On November 19, 1908, the State 21 Schoolbook Commission made another adoption for the ensuing five years, instead of renewing the contracts about to expire, thereby saving to counties like Cherokee, Clinch and White, which had been exempted from the operations of the law by reason of the existence of county contracts, and to numerous city systems which had never used State books, the benefits of exchange prices for twelve months. The Commission was very conservative and, acting upon the information given by a great number of teachers and school officials whose opinions showed that the first list of books was overloaded and top-heavy, dropped for that reason, one arithmetic, one grammar, one primer, and two physiologies. Several courses were thought to be greatly defective in that the subjects lWere presented from too many points of view by differen~authors, causing either a lack of connectedness or a too frequent and needless repetition, wasting thus both the pupil's and the teacher's time and effort. This was amended particularly in the case of arithmetics and grammars. Vertical writing was abandoned in favor of a neat, plain, and conservative slant system; and the entire series of adopted books were rearranged in a new course of study. It is believed that the course which results is simpler, twenty per cent. cheaper, and fifty per cent. stronger than before. The Commission does not pretend that the course is yet perfect. It is aware of numerous other defects; but these did not appear of sufficient moment to hazard the confusion of a radical change. Elsewhere in this volume will be found a list of books sold under the contract of 1903. The name, the separate and collective cost of each book, and the nnmbel' and cost of all books sold is given. These figures 22 were furnished by the book companies which had con tracts with the State. They are presumably accurate, and make the entire book bill for the five-year period m~ding December 31st last, to be $749,024.91, or an average of $149,804.98 a year. Assuming the average enrollment for those years to have been 450,000 children -a low estimate-the cost per capita would be thirtythree cents. From this it would appear that even cheap books under a State adoption is no especial inducement to parents to supply their children with the full list needed, for thirty-three cents is hardly the average price of the books adopted, or else that one book was made to work over time. However this may be, here is irrefutable demonstration that book bills are no great burden in this State. COUNTY ScmOOL COMMISSIONERS. It can not be said too often that the County School Commissioner is at the strategic center of all school operations; and that as he is so will be his schools. If this is true, and there can be little doubt of it, the office ought to receive more recognition than it has ever had. In a political way it has amounted to little and ought to amount to less,-for it ought to be an office .above the schemes of cliques and beyond the strife of partisans,-but in a social way no official position in Bny county is more powerful for either good or evil. It reaches with its silent but pervasive influence, whether consciously or not, every home and hearthstone all over the land and determines to a greater or less degree not merely the moral tone of the home but the practical efficiency of its members as well. It is but a trite . statement, then, that these men ought to be the best procurable. By "best" is not meant merely the morally 23 best. Their morals, of course, should be above reproach and unimpeachable. But many may have this qualifi~ cation and still be utterly incompetent. These men should have,' in addition to their perfect moral fitness, professional fitness and competence. They ought to be trained men-not only men who know but men who know how to do, to lead, to bring things to pass; and in each county there ought to be suc}l a man giving his entire time and thought to the work of organizing schools, ordering the courses of study, training and directing teachers, conducting institutes, holding conferences, and developing in the system its tens of thousands of latent posibilities for good, which only a competent man can find. But such men are rare. It is useless to seek them. They may be found only by holding up as an attraction for them positions big with promise and bulging with opportunity. A commissionership in Georgia is actually not such a position. There are scarcely half a dozen in all the hundred and forty-six counties that a man may hold and live by. This being true, the great majority are held by men who rely in part upon other work or enterprises for a living, giving the affairs of this office but a portion of their time and thought. Notwithstanding this, the commissioners of the State are, on the whole,_ good men, and with proper encouragement could and would do a great work. But they have not the encouragement. Little is given them and little is expected of them. The beggarly "three dollars," which is their daily allowance when on duty, keeps the wolf constantly at their doors. The law which fixes their compensation must be amended or repealed before we can hope with reason for more fruitful labor on their part. It ought to have been repealed long ago. It 24 never did provide adequate compensation for capable men. There is not a county in the State that ought to pay less than $900 for supervision, for no really competent man will long serve for less; and yet that is amost the maximum salary. Only half a dozen counties exceed that sum. To spend money for irregular, desultory and perfunctory supervision is grossest extravagance. It must be active, thorough, skilled, if it amounts to anything worth while. "But," says one, "we are paying well for the service we get." This proposition is not admitted. But suppose it is granted -when shall we get better service ~ The answer is simple. It will be rendered when better salaries are paid. Otherwise, not at all. The thought of the average man, however, is that, inasmuch as the Commissioner does not actually teach, so much as is paid for his services is just that much diverted from the schools and lost to them. This is not true. Dr. Rice demonstrated conclusivelY a few years since that a system having weak supervision and individually strong teachers did infinitely poorer work than a system with stro~g supervision and individually weak teachers. We must get a clear comprehension of this fact that in Georgia the great mass of our common school teachers is by reason of low salaries and lack of opportunity for proper training, unskilled and inexperienced. Of course, here and there are splendid exceptions and it is to be hoped that the exceptions will greatly multiply. But for the present we must deal with unskilled and untrained teachers chiefly. The Commissioner alone has access to them. If, therefore, he has skill and training .and time and opportunity, all of which he ought to have, he can make of the majority of young men and women who seek employment in his 25 schools fairly good and efficient teachers in a shorter period than one would suppose possible. Here then is our true policy-,-to get good superintendents and trust them to create good teacl4.ng. Stinting in a niggardly way those who alone can develop our school system and spending great sums for an army of untried teachers, each of whom will become, as soon as he has a license and a contract in his pocket, a law unto himself, marks us as "penny wise and pound foolish." TEACHERS' INSTITUTES. Just here it may be pertinent to speak of the Teachers' Institutes. The law creating them was passed in 189l. It authorizes the Board of Education "to pay from the educational fund of each county an amount not to exceed twenty-five dollars per annum for the purpose ofsecuring the services of an expert in conducting the week's session of the institute." Now, institutes are good, they are necessary, they are indispensable. But they have been" queered" by the provision of the law I have just cited. Twenty-five dollars for an expert who must quit home, travel, pay all expenses, and work like a horse for a whole week! Truly what kind of an expert was it thought possible to secure for that magnificent sum ~ Would any skillful lawyer or doctor or other professional man accept the conditions and serve a single day for itT . Neither will the really expert teacher, except he do it as a matter of friendship for some commissioner or from a profound and ullusual sense of duty. The result is that in many instances the twenty-five dollars are literally thrown away, wasted on some incompetent, whom, by a straining of both the law and extreme courtesy at the same time, we may call "expert." 26 This institute work ought to be done by the commissioner himself or by some man of undoubted ability. In any case the clause I have quoted ought to be stricken from the law, as it, in effect, has caused the institute to come to be regarfled by the teachers not as an "innocuous, " but a really" nocuous desuetude. " And they are right. To reestablish it in original vigor and influence and make it a thing of permanent usefulness, the institute law must be changed, and the institute itself reorganized and put upon a new basis, and infused with a new spirit. This suggestion has been adopted in some counties already and with good results. In these counties, the technical expert has been dispensed with. But even in these counties the presence and the service of interesting men and women from the outside occasionally are an inspiration and a stimulus. When this is needed, the commissioner and his Board ought to be competent to determine what that service is worth to them. One other feature of this law needs consideration. It requires the attendance of teachers during one week of ef!.ch year upon t.qe institute but provides no compensation for the same. This appears to be bad policy. Year before last the average salary paid first grade white teachers of the country schools was a little more than thirty dollars a month for five and three~fourths months. This was an annual salary, at that rate, of $172.50. This sum divided among twelve months (for teachers must live twelve months in the year whether they work or not) gives for each month fourteen dollars and forty-five cents as an income. Now, to leave home, as nine out of ten teachers must do in order to attend an institute, and pay transportation, and board for a week, would easily cost them fifteen dollars and wipe 27 out one month's entire income. For first grade teachers, who are the envied of their fellows, this is an almost unbearable hardship; but what must it be for the third grade teacher who did not receive twenty-five dollars a month ~ To take this money from these teachers under the compulsion of law seems almost as heinous as robbing a needy child on a highway. Justice to the children who are taught, (not even considering the rights of the teacher) demands a revision of this law and un allowance of a per diem to the teacher, for these teachers are as truly in the service of the State during institute week and are under as great expense as they will be later when they enter their schoolrooms. In order that we may get excellent service from teachers, their burdens should be made as light as possible, for their lot is trying; and it is not in human nature to impart its best when continually annoyed by debt and inability to face the bill collector with an easy smile. Soured, harassed, embittered teachers are a curse to the children that sit at their feet and a source of disgust to all with whom they come in contact. NEEDS OF THE DEPARTMENT. The following topic I approach with misgivings, because of possible misconstruction. But I take the chances of being misunderstood for "the good of the service," as it were. In 1887, twenty-two years ago, was passed the law by which the Department of Education is still regulated. Since then there has been neither increase nor diminution of the office force and the salaries then annexed to the two places still prevail. Two of us, with the assistance of a stenographer, "keep books," the amounts handled being quite two-fifths oi th~ State's entire revenue, check up the accounts of 28 all the Commissioners of the State, prepare the statistical data that must be always on hand, prepare blank forms for reports of various kinds, inspect the reports themselves, send out examination questions and instructions of all kinds for all teachers and officials, read examination papers, interpret school laws, sit as a court in case of appeals, issue commissions to officials, and keep up with a burdensome and constantly growing correspondence. These are but some of the more prominent duties which devolve upon the incumbent of my office. He and his assistant must keep eternally busy if they would not be overwhelmed by accumulating duties and hard driven by their exactions. In fact, the work now required of them is too much, and could not have been intended for so few workers. In 1887, there were in the State but 508,722 educable children. There are now a quarter of a million more. In 1887, the enrollment was 342,294. Last year it was 508,403, or nearly 200,000 more. In 1887, the gross State fund was $493,509.52. Last year it was $2,000,000, or nearly five times as much. And yet, in spite of this growth, and the increase of work that growth entails, we are staggering along with the same force. I find that Judge Hook in the Biennial Report of 1888-9, quotes the following from Commissioner Orr's prior report: "The work in the office of the State School Commissioner has greatl~ increased with the extension of the school work. The Commissioner is compelled to devote himself to purely clerical labors. For months past he has been confined to his desk without intermission from seven to nine hours a day. H~ is allowed one clerk. This clerk has labored from ten to twelve hours a day and sometimes longer. . . . . After !;tIl this expenditure of earnest labor! the work pf t4~ 29 office is often much behind. I must,. therefore, renew the request made in the last report that the Commissioner be allowed to employ an additional clerk or expend a limited sum in procuring additional clerical aid at such times as the pressure of labor may make the same necessary." If this condition was real twenty years ago, and two Commissioners unite in bearing testimony to that fact, what must it be today when the work of the office has increased along all lines from fifty to one hundred per cent., and many additional duties devolve upon it which. were not imposed then nor even dreamed of~ Dr. Orr was right. Judge Hook was right. They were oppressed with work then. The office is simply submerged now and has become a sort of educational clearinghouse. It can hardly be more, for the pressure of purely clerical work is vastly too heavy. This is not as it should be. The State is entitled to something more than clerkly labor from the Department; but it can not reasonably expect more until the Department is properly manned for the service it should render. Can we afford an increased force~ We can not afford not to have it. The work is too important not to be done in the best possible way; and at present, it is not and can not be, except in the matter of clerical details. These are carefully and promptly looked after, leaving no time for other and quite as important things. Initiative and originative plans beyond the mere routine, though many are in mind, are barred by the physical limitations of the Department. But consider for a moment the financial proposition. We shall disburse this year through the Department 9i Ed"\lc~tion $2,500?000 approximatell' The salary 30 roll of the Department is $4,100 per annum, or a little more than one-tenth of one per cent. of what passes through our hands. The entire cost of operating the Department, including the supplies of every kind furnished to the County Boards of Education, will not reach five-tenths of one per cent. Then, too, our entire force costs the State less than do several heads of other Departments; while there are few other heads of Departments who receive less than both my assistant and myself together. The salary of each of these, { believe, is but $200 less than our combined salaries. Such discrimination against this Department has, I submit, a tendency to degrade and belittle all for which it stands. But this is not the point. If the State can afford to pay (and it ought) other Departments well, by what process of reasoning is the conclusion arrived at that the Department of Education must go short-handed on account of poverty ~ It is a pernicious policy at best that cripples the Department, and that policy is responsible for much of the lack of efficiency at times manifest in the schools. EDUCATIONAL CAMPAIGN. The prescribed duties of the Cbmmissioner in part are, "to visit, as often as possible, the several counties of the State for the purpose of examining into the administration of the school law in said counties, of counselling with school officers, of delivering popular addresses, of inspecting school operations, and of doing such other acts as he may deem subservient to the interests of popular education." These duties I have performed as literally and as conscientiously as the exactions of my desk would permit, often working all day and travelling all night, and night after night; for I 31 believed., and still do believe, the statute quoted outlines an absolutely important and indispensable service which may not at any time be permitted to halt without loss to every interest involved. I have thus kept up, as best I could alone, a continuous campaign for education throughout the State, which has been productive of some good results. But the field is vast, the laborers are few, and abundant harvests rot where they grow for want of reapers. It is a great misfortune that the Department h~s not force enough at its command to touch in this personal way each county in the State at least once a year. This constant commingling with our people of every class and of every section has convinced me that all Georgians believe profoundly and implicitly in the eftkacy of education, and are trying as best they know how to supply their children with facilities for it. It may be doubted whether in all the nearly six thousand schooldistriets in the State twenty have suffered themselves to be without a teacher during the year; and there is a school, such as it is, within the average distance of a mile and a half of every educable child. And these schools are, I may add, as good as the communities desire, else public opinion would compel better. Schools are social barometers and indicate as nothing else does, the culture, the intelligence, and the aspirations of the people that patronize them. The school and the community react upon each other. As is one, so is the other. The pity of it is that the school in too many, many instances is of such low order. To better it we must not only work directly upon it but must educate the community in which it is situated as well, pointing that community to examples of better social life and imbuing it with higher educational ideals. Here, then, lies the 32 limitless field of service for the Department of I~Jduca tion and the Department ought to be equipped to make the most of it. CONCLUSION. Now, gentlemen, I am aware that one has little right to point out defects unless he is ready with a remedy. Whatever is, is better than nothing at all. Bills will be offered you which seek to amend many-not, all-of the imperfections of our school law and to develop a more perfect organization of our school system. These have been thoughtfully worked out by practical school men who seek nothing but the highest social good of all our people through the reorganization of our educational forces. I trust you will find these bills wise, practical, and conservative. They will, I am quite sure, if they become law, thoroughly modernize the somewhat worn and obsolete machinery of our schools, reduce them to something like system, mid render them more fit for the tasks to be imposed upon them. True, the reorganization wil~ demand a little more money. Improvements generally do. Education always will. Nothing is more costly than education except ignorance. We are engaged in a fight against ignorance and its brood of curses. They must be banished at any cost. This is what our people want and what they demand at your hands and mine. This deep-rooted human desire of theirs is voiced in an eloquent plea by a young woman, now a student in one of our Normal Schools, who sees with the vision of a prophet and speaks with the wisdom of a sage: "Cherish the rights of the children! Create. the facilities for their education-amply, lavishly! And thank God fervently that in better schools you create an agency in the whir and stir of this money- 33 mad world that dreams first and most, not about the making of gold, but about the making of men that are finer than gold-'Yea, finer than the golden wedge of Ophir;' and that busies itself with making your daughters to be like the King's daughter-' all glorious within.' " Respectfully submitted, JERE M. POUND, State School Commissioner. 2-de 34 CIRCULAR LETTERS OF THE STATE SCHOOL COMMISSIONER. June 1, 1908. 1'0 the County School Commissioner: I shall send you, on or about the 15th of June, the questions for the annual examination, which is to occur on the 19th and 20th of the month. We shall take great care in this office that these questions and their answers are not disclosed to anyone, and we hope, that wheIJ the questions are received by you, they will be kept with great vigilance and opened only in th~ presence of the applicants in the examination room. The questions, this year, are not intended to develop so much, as heretofore, the exactness and scope of the scholarship of those who take the examination, as they are to show their preparation and training for teaching. It will be impossible, therefore, to give as many exact answers ,as in the past. The Commissioner in estimating the answers, and in grading them, will have to exercise good judgment in weighing their sense and reasonableness.Fitness for teaching, instead of mere scholarship, is the one thing that we seek to develop through these questions. With best wishes, I am, Very truly yours, JERE M. POUND, State Schoo~ Commissioner. 35 June 10, 1908. To the County School Commissioner: I contemplate a rather aggressive campaign for education in Georgia, and am considering, as a part of the plan, the holding of a convention of members of Boards of Education and desire your opinion upon the following plan: First, would it be feasible to attempt to gather Board members in one great State convention at some central point, say Macon, during the latter part of August or the first of September~ Secondly, or would it be better to divide this into four or five conventions, which shall be held in different sections of the State ~ Thirdly, or would it be better to hold them in Con- gressional Districts? I wish you would feel free to advise me about the whole scheme after consulting with each of the members of your Boards of Education and finding out their sentiments about the same. It seems to me that if we can get the eight or nine hundred members of Boards of Education, scattered throughout the State, intensely interested in the subject of education, we may expect very hopeful results. But advise me freely about the matter, and at your earliest possible convenience, after consulting with the members of your Boards. . Be on the lookout for the examination questions, which will be forwarded to you early next week. The same rules will obtain in this examination as in the preceding ones. If the questions have not reached you by 36 Wednesday afternoon, June 17, please notify the Department as quickly as possible. I am, Very truly yours, JERE M. POUND. August 18, 1908. To the County Schooll Commissioner: The governor has vetoed the bill extending until 1911 the book adoption which expires January 1, 1909. This makes another adoption in the near future absolutely necessary and unavoidable. The duty of adopting a new series of texts or of making new contracts for the old is assigned by law to the State Board of Education. In the performance of this duty, the Board wishes to be wisely conservative and, to this end, it desires your advice. I will thank you, therefore, to answer frankly and fearlessly, without reference to any interest. but that of the children and the schools over which you preside, the questions to be found on the following page and to send me your answers at the earliest possible moment. The Convention of County Board Members, about which I sought your advice recently, has been made impossible this year by force of circumstances. It is a matter which I will consider seriously next year in counection with the Convention of County School Commissioners; or, if it is thought best by the majority of Commissioners, we may, about that time, hold a separate convention for the Board Members. At any rate, I have not abandoned the scheme,-only postponed it. Very truly yours, JERE M. POUND, 8tcde School Commissioner, 37 1.

ATLANTA, GA., Oct. 6, 1908. To the County School Commissioners: The Uncle Remus Memorial Association, through its Secretary, Mr. J. G. Lester, has communicated with you probably, giving you its plans for establishing a fitting memorial to the late Joel Chandler Harris. The purpose of the Association is to purchase the old Harris home, "Snap Bean Farm," make a park of it and keep it as a perpetual memorial of this lamented but illustrious friend of the children. Co-operation in everJ legitimat~way with the Association will afford valuable opportunities for imparting some noble sentiments to the children of our several counties and inculcating lessons that ought not to be, and will not be, soon forgot- 39 ten. The Department sympathizes with this movement completely and hopes you may find a way to make it valuable to your schools and their pupils. I hope in the near future to prepare a program for "Health Day" in our schools. I should have done so already but for the great pressure of other duties. This is a new departure which many are constdering, but which I hope we shall be the first to inaugurate. It contemplates nothing more than the setting apart of a certain portion,of one day each year for talks by local physicians to children and parents about the means of preserving and building up the health of the children and of protecting them from the ravages of the more common diseases. Any physician will, I think, gladly offer his serVices for this purpose; and I hope you will act upon the suggestion here offered you. It is not necessary to wait for a formal program to be outlined. That will come in time. But for the present appoint your own time and make your own program. In a few days we will send the non-local tax counties a supply of new Monthly Itemized Statement blanks. Please destroy all of t'he old you may have on hand ;1nd use only the new. In filling out the new form please fill in every blank, add the various items separately and bring forward into the Summary. Your balance will sometimes appear on one side and sometimes on the other in the Summary. You need fill only one of the blanks for balance, of course. Only enough money should be accumulated in the hands of the County Board to meet the current expenses of the month just closing. The law does not seem to contemflate the accumulation of more than this in the hands of County Boards. 40 Please express, in your ordinary correspondence with this Department, if there should be any before the 1st of November, your opinion as to the desirability of a teachers' examination during the winter and of the time at which it should be held. Very truly yours, JERE M. POUND, State School Commissioner. , November 5,.1908. To the County School Commissioner:- Yielding to the almost unanimous wishes of the County School Commissioners throughout the State, I am ordering an examination of teachers to be held on the 18th and 19th of December. Two or three days before that time, I shall send out from this office the questions to be submitted to all applicants for license to teach. It may be that I shall not communicate with you again relative to this subject, so I will ask you to . be on the lookout for the same and to use all reasonable \ vigilance to prevent any possible fraud in the examination. It would be an excellent thing to require applicants for license to use pen and ink in the preparation of their papers. Some of the papers forwarded to me for permanent license were almost illegible, because pencils were used, and the papers were greatly smeared in their transmission to this office. This fact moves me to state the following rules, about which I trust you will give all who expect to apply for permanent license, full infor- mation: \ 41 First. All papers which shall be submitted for permanent license must be written with pen and ink, and great care must be taken in their preparation. Second. The applicant must make a general average of ninety-five per cent., or over, a~d the grading of the County School Commissioner of each question must be marked on the answer or opposite to it in the margin. Third. The County School Commissioner will attach firmly to each applicant's papers the certificate which the law requires of him about the applicant. The first rule seems necessary, for a great number of the papers forwarded to me for permanent license, after the last examination, while good in matter, were in appearance hardly worthy of a child in the upper . grades of the schools taught by these teachers. If it is a good thing to require neatness of pupils, it is a better thing to require neatness of teachers. Precept without practice is rather bad pedagogy. This examination will not be based very greatly upon any texts suggested for reading, but more stress than usual will be laid upon school law and school management. In the spring examination, the questions will be shaped, in a great part, by Dutton's "School Management" and Dinsmore's" Teaching of a District School." Dutton's "School Management" may be had of the Southern Schoolbook Depository of this city, and Dinsmore's" Teaching of a District School," of the American Book Company, here. Both of these books are fine, but the latter is especially full of good things ~pplicable to country schools and conditions. On the 19th and 20th of the present month, there will be held in Atlanta a convention of the Society for the Promotion of Industrial Education, and on the 29th! 42. 30th and 31st of December, the Southern Educational Association will convene here in annual session. Both of these conventions, particularly the latter, ought to be of great interest to the school peopl,e of our State. I cordially invite you to be present, and to urge such of your teachers as can afford the expense to attend one or the other, or both of them. Our teachers take too little advantage of such opportunities as these. I know they feel hardly able to spend much money this way, but more of them are able to do it than really do, and these are the ones whom I desire you to urge to make use of such opportunities for self-improvement and for the uplift of your school system. Most of the counties are now opening up their schools for another session. Let us make the new year, if pos:" sible, the most satisfactory and successful year in the history of the schools. I pledge you my hearty co-operation to this end. If I can be of any assistance to you at any time, by personal visitation or otherwise, I shall be glad to do so if it is within my power. With best wishes, I am, Very truly yours, JERE M. POUND, State School Commissioner. ATLANTA, GA., Dec. 21, 1908. To the County School Commissioner: The work of the School Improvement Association will in future, beginning January 1, 1909, be directed from this,Department; and, for this purpose, Mrs. Walter B. Hill, the State Organizer, will be attached to this office, 43 though in an unofficial way. Any communication relative to this work may, therefore, be addressed _to me here or to her in Athens. In either case, it will receive prompt attention. I trust the work of school improvement may be urged forward very rapidly during the coming year. It is not enough that we should build better school hou!?es. ffhey ought likewise to be prettier and their surroundings more inviting. All this makes for a higher type of manhood and a finer culture. Mrs. Hill and I, one or both, will always be at your command in any endeavor to bring about better conditions along this lin,e. In this connection, may I ask that e~ch of you .will file with me the date of your annual institute or of your monthly meetings of teachers as soon as you have determined the same~ I should like to be with you whenever possible or to have Mrs. Hill visit your county, whether I can or not. Beginning Jan. 4th and continuing until January 30th, a Cotton School, Farmers' Conference, and Road School will be conducted at the State College of Agriculture, Athens, Ga. A great variety of subjects will be discussed by competent instructors and lecturers. All these subjects will bear upon country life and education. The occasion ought to be very helpful and inspiring. Through the president of the State College of Agriculture, Dr. Andrew M. Soule, who is also the organizer and conductor of this Conference, I am authorized to extend to you and your teachers a most cordial invitation to attend the sessions. I do this In no mere perfunctory way. As you know, it can not be said that we have taught agriculture very efficiently in the common schools, chiefly, because, breaking new ground as we 44 were, we had no trained instructors. This occasion may be the means of improvement in this most important particular. I am sending you supplies of the new book list and course of study. I shall be glad to have any criticism upon the latter. If at any time during the year the supply of books in your county should run short, the trouble will probably lie with the local dealers and you had best write at once to the publishers of the missing books. It is their business to keep books in your county; and they will not only appreciate. the notice given but' promptly assist you in getting supplies. Checks are being sent out now aggregating nearly $400,000.00. Another payment will follow very shortly -possibly within a week. Wishing you a most happy holiday season, I am Very truly, JERE M. POUND, State School Commissioner: ATLANTA, GA., January 20th, 1909. To the' County School Commissioner: I am sending to some of you, and shall send to the others as soon as another supply is received, a copy of a magnificent Profile Map of the State of Georgia, which has been prepared by the State Railroad Commission and transmitted to me through its chairman, the Hon. S. G. McLendon, for the special use of. the County School Commissioners of the State. The letter in which these maps are donated to the County School 45 Commissioners states that they are to constitute a part of the county school library. These maps are so valuable that I think each commissioner ought to have his framed and suspended in his office. They may be of great use in your institutes in giving such teachers as will carefully study them, a conception of the topography of the State of Georgia, which could be gotten from no other source whatever. I advise the study of these maps in your institutes occasionally, and that each of you write the Hon. S. G. McLendon a letter of thanks for the same. Please permit me to call your attention to the fact that your annual statistical reports are due on February first. This Department is receiving an occasional report but they are coming in hardly fast enough. Let us have these promptly this year, containing as full statistics as possible, as the credit of our State is at stake in the showing made annually through these reports. I wish, also, to ask each commissioner to give me a written report of the work done in his county during the year just ended, showing as completely as possible the scope and success of his plans. You will find models of these on page fifty-seven and the succeeding pages of the last annual report of this Department. We have never had a showing of this kind at one time from all of the counties of the State. I would be greatly obliged, therefore, if every commissioner would furnish me with such a statement this year, giving in as great detail as he may care to, such things of interest in an educational way as have happened in his county during the year. These reports, I regard as vastly more valu- 46 able and more instructive than the average statistical report, valuable as that is. Wishing you for the year 1909, all the success possible in your efforts to build up the schools in your county, and pledging you every assistance I can give you, I am JERE M. POUND, State School Commissioner. February 23, 1909. To the County School Commissioner: I sent you some days ago, through the courtesy of the Railroad Commission, a new railroad map of the State, prepared by the Commission. It was contributed through the generosity of the chairman, Hon. S. G. McLendon. He is also having prepared a miniature of the Prifile Map, which I recently sent you for your office, and will give me enough copies to supply all of your teachers with the same. These are to be given the teachers with the compliments of the Railroad Commission. They will be forwarded as soon as they come from the hands of the printers. I am informed, also, that through the kindness of a great friend to education in Georgia, you will each &hortly receive a mar~ed copy of the February number of the American Magazine. The article to which your attention is called is the one entitled" Sending a State to College." It is a description of the scope, plans, ~ purposes and operations of the great University of Wisconsin, which Dr. Elliott has recently called the foremost American University. The article is well 47 worthy of your close study. While it is a description of the operations of a great University, still there are innumerable suggestions as to what the common schools of a county may do for the county. I hope, therefore, that when you have received this magazine, you will read the article with great interest and care, and find therein something of value to your own county and vicinity. Please give particular attention to the following: A number of Commissioners have been in the habit of forwarding Itemized Statements, approved only by the President of the County Board of Education, to this department for our inspection and approval. The Attorney-General advises me that this practice is illegal, that the law charges the Board, met in formal session, with the duty of approving these statements, and that it can not delegate to another, .either the President of the Board or any other person, the authorityor the duty of auditing and approving them. I shall have to ask, therefore, that hereafter no commissioner will forward a statement that has not been passed upon by his Board in formal session and that his certificate of the correctness of the statement shall defi nitely cite the date of the meeting at which such statement was approved. If you have not yet prepared and forwarded to us the annual statistical report of your county, please forward it at once, and do not forget to send me a written review of your year's work for publication in my annual report. lam very anxious that this report shall be as accurate and full an exposition of the school affairs of Georgia as can be made. I know you will enter into my plans in this respect with all cordiality. 48 The next examination of teachers will be held on June 18th and 19th, next. From my correspondence and observation, I am inclined to believe that the school conditions throughout the State at this time are very fine, and that the month of J anuaryhas been one of the best in the history of the schools. I hope these conditions will prevail until the end of the year, and that you may be more completely satisfied with this year's work than with that of any year which has preceded it. With best wishes, I am, Very truly yours, JERE M. POUND, State School Commissioner. March 30, 1909. To the County School Commissioner and City Super- _ in'tendent : I am now making up a requisition for 10 per cent. of the appropriation for 1909. As soon as it can be prepared, checks will be forwarded to all local systems and to such counties as have filed Itemized Statements. These checks will reach you, perhaps, almost as soon as this letter will. On April 14th-16th, the Conference for Education in the South will hold its annual session in Atlanta. The program for the same is being prepared by Dr."Wickliffe Rose, agent of the Peabody Fund. Dr. Rose is planning this program so that it will deal directly and. immediately with our Southern rural problems. NQ one - in the South has given these problems more profound 49 or intelligent study than he, and no one has a more extensive acquaintance with men throughout the nation who can elucidate them. This session of the Conference, then, promises to be unusually important, and I think every County School Commissioner, teacher, and school official who can possibly attend ought to be present on this occasion. Different from most sessions of the Conference, this session promi~es to be of interest to laymen as well as to teachers and school officials. I urge you, therefore; not only to come, but to bring with you all teachers and laymen whom you can interest in this work. It is especially desirable that you do this, because on the afternoon of April 16th, it is proposed to hold a notable State Conference, in which it is hoped all organizations interested in education may be represented, and at which our own local conditions may be considered. Help me to make this State Conference an inspiration to every educational effort and movement in the State, and an uplift, particularly, to the Common Schools. The Executive Committee of the County School Commissioners' Convention met in my office on Tuesday, March 23d, and selected June 29th, 30th, and July 1st as the time of the next meeting, and Tallulah Falls as the place. The meeting was set for a later time than usual, because the hotels at Tallulah Falls will not open before June 1st. The Committee had no option as to place, as that was determined for it by the Convention at Brunswick last year. Programs, hotel and railroad rates will be announced later. The Georgia Educational Association will hold its annual session on Cumberland Island, June 23d-25th. Programs for this meeting will be announced soon. 50 I presume you have all received the announcements of the State College of Agriculture and of the Southern Cotton Seed Crushers' Association of their intentions to offer prizes, the one for the best display of farm products by school children,' and the other for the best essays on the products of the cotton plants: It seems to me that these prizes ought to stimulate the interests of teachers and children in agriculture. I hope every Commissioner in the State will inform his schools that these prizes are offered, and that he will urge his teachers to insist upon their pupils taking part in these contests. The Department has not yet received the statistical reports of all the counties, and not more than half the narrative reports. I am especially anxious to have each county fitly represented in my Annual Report. I will ask you, therefore, if you have not forwarded these already, to do so at your earliest convenience, as copy must be put in the printer's hands not later than May 1. I heartily congratulate you on the continuance of such favorable conditions for school work throughout the State. Good reports come to me from all sections. Very truly, JERE M. POUND, State School Commissioner. ATLANTA, GA., September 23, 1908. To the Publishers of School Text-Books: The School Book Commission of the State of Georgia, authorized by the Act of the Legislature, approved August 13th, 1903, to adopt a uniform system of text- 51 books for the State as a further step in its investigatiolJ relative to the satisfaction given by the text-books now in use in the State, invite, for the sake of information and comparison, all persons and publishers having textbooks that fulfill the requirements of the law, and that they may desire to offer in place of the books now on the adopted list of the State, in the following subjects, to-wit: Orthography, Reading, Writing, Arithmetic, Geography,English Language Lessons, English Grammar, History of Georgia, containing the Constitution of the State of Georgia, History of the United States, containing the Constitution of the United States, Physiology, Hygiene, Elementary Principles of Agriculture and Civil Government, to submit, by mail or express, three copies of the same, with tentative bids including prices and specifications in writing, to the State School Commissioner on or before the 9th day of October, 1908. It is to be understood that the said bids, which are requested above, are not the formal bids required by the statute, but merely tentative bids and specifications which the Board in its discretion may later requ~re to be made in a formal and legal way or reject altogether. It is to be understood further that the Board is not yet in a position to discuss with the agents of the several houses submitting bids of this character, the textbooks which shall be so submitted. I am Very truly yours, JERE M. POUND, Secretary School Book Commission of Georgia. 52 EXAMINATIONS GIVEN BY THE DEPARTMENT DURING THE YEAR. EXAMINATION JUNE 19, 1908. GEOGRAPHY. 1.

Name six forage crops that may be produhould be provided in the fourth year. As much as twofifths of the time is allowed in the last year, those pupils desiring to specialize in commercial or technical voe,ltions. The work as outlined above gives a minimum of nine required studies and allows selection by the pupil ?f from seven to eleven others, according to graduation requirements of 16, 18 or 20 units. If the election of subjects is adopted, the board should require for graduation from a four-year or Senior High School a minimum of three units of English, two of Mathematics, two of History, two of foreign language, two of science, the other five, seven or nine units being selected by the pupil. Some prefer the school offering group courses and allow selection of these, but the course once-adopted, the subjects are largely prescribed. Under either plan or from any course suggested a graduate ought to be able to pursue with profit a higher course in the University or College. We submit a scheme of entrance units for the consideration of our colleges to which the flexible courses offered in the High Schools may be adjusted. While no two pupils may have exactly the same grouping, all may be required to offer the same amount of High School preparation. It is hoped that all our colleges will adopt the unit system of rating entrance and adhere strictly to the catalog requirements. The schools and the patrons have a right to know whether 4, 6, 8, 10, 12 or 14 units are required for full entrance to the Freshman class, and on how many units a pupil may be admitted conditionally to the same class. We believe the scheme below will meet the demands of the schools and of the colleges. 346 SUGGESTED COLLEGE ENTRANCE REQUIREMENTS FOR ALL , COLLEGES. For Bachelor of Arts. English, 3 to 4 units; Algebra, 1 to 11/2 units; PI. Geometry, 1 unit ; Latin, 3 to 4 units; Second For. Lang. 2 to 3 units; History, 1 to 2 units; Elective, 1 to 3 units; total 14 units. Electives. Second, Foreign Language, 2 units; Physics, 1 unit; Chemistry, 1 unit; Physical Geography, 1 unit; Biology, 1 unit; Botany and Zoology, 1 unit; Advanced Algebra, 1-2 unit; Solid Geometry, Trigonometry, 1 unit; History, 2 units; Drawing, 1 unit; Agriculture, 1 to 3 units; Music, 1 unit; Manual Training, 1 to 3 units; Domestic Science, 1 to 2 units; Commercial, 1 to 2 units. Manual Training, Domestic Science, and Commercial Electives in technical courses. For Bachelor of Science. English, 3 to 4 units; Algebra, 1 to 1112 units; PI. Geometry, 1 unit; Foreign Language; 2 to 3 units; History, 1 to 2 units; Electives, 3 to 5 units; total 14 units. PHYSICAL CULTURE. Physical culture of some kind should be a definite part of the school exercises. Boards should insist upon this and plan for it. The army" setting up" exercises are llllsurpassed for outdoor drills for the boys and may, in modified form, be helpful to the girls. The school should encourage field and track athletics by holding contests each term and sending the winners to the county or district contests. Spaulding"s Handbook for 347 Public School Athletic Leagues should be familiar to every school boy and to his teachers. 'vVe have much to learn from the old Greeks about the care and development of the body. These athletic features of the school will tend also to develop school spirit. The girls should not be neglected either. There are many wholesome games that they should be encouraged to engage in, always of course under competent supervision. Our girls and boys should leave the high school vigorous in mind and body, controlled by a high moral purpose backed by an ability to think straight, and possessed of a fair degree of economic efficiency. We must strive for all round development in place of the too common book stuffing. BIBLE STUDY. We believe that an elective course in the systfilmatic study of the Bible should be offered in our secondary schools. One full recitation a week, containing one-fifth of a unit a year, should be offered. The course should consi~t of a study of Old Testament History, of the Life and Teachings of Christ and the spread of Christianity, followed, if desired, by a course in Doctrines and Duties. We suggest that principles and boards send for sample copies of Blakeslee's Bible study union texts, issued by the Bible Study Publishing Company, Boston, Mass. After a study of these textbooks, I believe they will be convinced that such a course should be offered in the high school department. He must be bigoted indeed, who would object to such an'elective course in the world's greatest book. Too many of our Sunday schools do not instruct. If we are to have a generation versed in th<;) Bibl<;) I believe we must introduce the study in thE;l 348 high school course. The Constitution of the State permits the study. I believe the place for such a study is in the second or third years of a high school course, in the home school under local environments. SUGGESTIONS FOR STUDY ENGLISH CLASSICS. The full list of subjects in the groups mentioned below will be found in Bulletin 100 of the University of Georgia. This Bul~etin will be sent on application. rrhe grouping below is merely a suggestive arrangement made after consultation with the department of English. FOUR YEAR HIGH SCHOOL COURSE. English.

The professors of secondary education in the eleven Southern States are collecting statistics showing all work of a secondary school nature done in ~heir respective States. I ask the earnest co-operation of all school officials in aiding me in securing the fullest data for Georgia. We want a record of every grade above the seventh pursuing High School studies but none below. We need the seven grades to do satisfactorily the common school course. We desire to give detailed information concerning every Junior, Middle, and Senior High School this fall. CONSTITUTIONAL A~THORITYFOR SUPPORT OF HIGH SCHOOLS AS A PART OF A SCHOOL SYSTEM. On October 5, 1904, the voters of the State of Georgia ratified an amendment to the State Constitution as follows: 350 "Authority may be granted to counties, militia districts, and to municipal corporations to establish and maintain public schools in their respective limits by local taxation ; but no such laws shall take effect until the same have been submitted to a vote and approved by a two-thirds majority of those voting at such election." This amendment gives the above mentioned political divisions the right to establish and maintain public schools, unrestricted in scope and therefore including high schools as well as elementary school grades. The Constitution still prevents direct appropriations from the State treasury for high schools. It is hoped that the next General Assembly will amend the Constitution so that a small direct appropriation may be made to each county for aid to the high school, as is done in Virginia, Alabama, North Carolina, South Carolina, and quite a number of the Northern and Western States. If we all work for it we can get it. 351 CONGRESSIONAL DISTRICT HIGH SCHOOL ASSOCIATION OF GEORGIA. Organization, Rules and Suggestions to District Officers for the Year 1908-09. STATE OFFICERS.

All High Schools holding membership in the District Associations are members of the State Association. SEC. 2. The object of the Association shall be to promote the cause of education through the establish- ment and adequate maintenance and equipment of pub- lic high schools in every county as a necessity in any modern system of education, a right of every boy and girl, rural and urban, and an .efficient means of linking' the elementary public schools with the colleges and universities and of improving the scholarship of the rank and file of public school teachers, and the intelli- gence and efficiency of the entire citizenship of the State. SEC. 3. The membership of the Association shall in- elude all teachers and officers in the above mentioned High Schools, the boards of trustees of said schools, .and the County School Commissioners of the counties in this District. SEC. 4. Each school shall have one vote and a ma- jority of the schools represented shall constitute a quorum at a regular or duly called special conference. SEC. 5. Conferences shall be held annually on the ____________ and on the . The executive officers will arrange the program for these and send it to all the members. SEC. 6. Annual contests in declamation, recitations, music, etc., and track athletics, that will promote the 12-de cause of education shall be held during the spring term, either for the whole District or in such sub-divisions of the District as the Association shall determine. Winners of the District contests may be sent to the annual State contest during sessions of the State Summer School. SEC. 7. Delegates from the Association, at least one from each school, shall be sent to the annual convention of the Georgia Educational Association and to the Secondary School Conference held during the State Summer School. SEC. 8. The officers of this Association shall consist of a president, vice-president, secretary, treasurer and an executive committee, consisting of one member from each county represented, the before-mentioned officers constituting a part of said committee and representing their respective counties in the same; or the officers shall constitute the executive committee. The officers shall be elected at the annual meeting. By-LAws. 1. The high schools of each county in the _ District shall have the right to send one boy and one girl, to contest in declamation, and recitations, respec- tively; one boy and one girl to participate in xeady writers contest based upon subjects selected from the college entrance requirements in English for 1909, '10, '11; to submit specimens of High School pupils' handi- work; one contestant in piano music limited to eight minutes, and to send not exceeding five boys to contest in different forms of track athletics, all of whom must be under twenty years of age, bona fide students of the school and in good standing for the school year. 355 2. Anyone who has won a prize in any of the above contests is ineligible to the same contest another year. 3. The Association shall charge an admission fee of 15 cents for school children and 25 cents for others to the contests, the proceeds to go to defraying the expenses of judges, etc. 4. There shall be three judges for each contest. 5. Judges shall be elected by the executive committee from names furnished by the several county committees, from persons not connected with the schools contesting unless agreed upon by all the executive committee. 6. No speech shall be longer than eight minutes and no essay longer than five hundred words. All handiwork offered must be the work of the pupil done as a part of the regular school exercises. Track contests must conform to the standard rules governing same as explained in Spaulding's Official Handbook Public School Athletic League, Group XII American Sports Pub. Co., No. 21 Warren St., New York City. Price, 10 cents. 7. The executive committees shall decide what contests will be offered each year and what the prizes will be. 8. The principal of the school must certify to the President of the District Association the names, age, time in school and scholarship of contestants one week before contest. The President of the District Association will report to the President of the State Asso~ ciation the results of the District contests and a general statement of the work of the Association for the year. 356 9. The District committee shall be instructed to name the alternates for the State contests from the next highest contestants. II. Where several high schools are in one county, these shall contest or otherwise agree among themselves for the honor of representing the county in the District contests. The princip'als of the high schools of the county will constitute an executive committee for said county. Where two or more contests are held . in a District the winners of these may contest to decide who shall represent the District in the State contests, or contestants may be chosen by the executive committee by lot. III. It is recommended that each county and city hold annual contests and exhibitions among elementary school pupils under the direction of the county teachers' association, and the high school authorities are requested to co-operate with the county authorities in organizing the same. Spaulding's Guide mentioned above will give full directions for athletic contests among elementa;ry pupils. These are distinct from the High School contests. Every school should order several copies of this Guide. It gives the official records of school boys, in all the sports, the athletic rules governing entries and for conducting each sport and suggestions for school organizations. We are confident that there is a great value in field and track sports and we trust that all will introduce them under the regulations mentioned above. Great interest was manifested in the District meet- 357 mgs last year. Large crowds were in attendance in seven of the Districts. One of the most valuable features is the conference of High School teachers. This should not be omitted. We Inust create more high school sentiment by giving more knowledge of the work of the high school. 358 ACCREDITED SCHOOLS OF GEORGIA. EXPLANATION OF DETAILS RELATING TO ACCREDITED SCHOOLS BELOW. E.

CHARACTER OF THE SCHOOL. The Georgia School for the Deaf, as its name implies, ib strictly a School for the education of those persons who are too d1eaf to receive instruction in the common schools. Those persons who are dumb but not i/)eaf are not entitled to the benefits of the School, as they can be educated by the methods used in the common schools, if they can be educated at all. The methods here are adapted for deaf person's and not for the hearing. The School is neither an asylum nor a charitable institution, unless other public schools, and the various branches of the State University rank as such. LOCATION. The School is located at Cave Spring, in Floyd county, and is easily accessible from all parts of the State. It has a department for white people and one for negroes, which are entirely separate and distinct, except as to superintendence. THE SCHOOL- IS NON-SECTARIAN. Sunday School is held for an hour each Sunday morning, in which the International Sunday School Lessons are used as far as practicable, and in the afternoon a lecture of about a half hour's duration is delivered in 369 the chapel, in the sign-language, the subject of the lecture being the lesson for the next Sunday. Every pupil is required to attend these exercises. Should any officer be found trying to inculcate the peculiar doctrines of his particular church, it would be considered sufficient cause for dismissal, if persisted in. OBJECT OF THE SCHOOL. The primary object of the School is to give to the dear such a knowledge of the English language as will enable them to use it in pursuing the usual avocations of life. The next most important object is to give them instruction in one or more branches of handicraft, as the great majority of them must of necessity, on account of their affliction, rely on something of this kind for earning a livelihood. Along with these, they are given instruction in Geography, Grammar, History, Natural Philosophy, Arithmetic and Penmanship, or in other words, it is endeavored to give them a practical common school education. Articulation and lip-reading are taught to those pupils, who after a prolonged trial, are found to possess the requisite ability to warrant its continuance. INDUSTRIES. Boys are given instruction in printing, wood-working, wood-carving, painting, shoe-making, blacksmithing and gardening. Girls are taught plain sewing, cutting and fitting, cooking, and it is intended to introduce other suitable industries in the near future. A given number of both boys and girls are given lessons in drawing in charcoal, crayon, water-color, 370 pencil, and pen and ink sketching, mechanical drawing, in designing, and in modeling in clay, as well as in woodcarving. Of course the degree of progress made on these lines, depends almost entirely upon the individual effort made by the pupil. CLOTHING. A uniform of neat appearance, and of substantial rna terial, has been adopted by the Board of Trustees., for both the male and" female pupils, which they are required to wear at all times, not only at school, but in coming to and in going therefrom, and as no deviation will be allowed from this rule, parents will save themselves the useless trouble and expense of furnishing other outer clothing than that prescribed by the Board of Trustees. Pupils must bring with them and keep on hand, the number of articles of each kind prescribed in a list, which will be sent upon application, and a list of the articles sent with the pupil, upon entering school at the beginning of each term, should always be placed in the trunk, so that the Matron can check them up and enter them in a book kept for the purpose. LETTER WRITING. Pupils who can do so are required to write home at least once a month, and for those who can not, the principal will write, and for this purpose stamps should be furnished each pupil. BUSINESS LETTERS AND PACKAGES. All business letters, or letters of inquiry, and all notices or directions in regard to pupils, must be ad- 371 dressed to the principal, and not to subordinates, (officers or employees) otherwise no attention will be paid to them. All moneys intended for the children had best be sent direct to the principal, and he will be responsible for it, otherwise not. All letters, and packages, either by mail, freight or express should contain the name of the pupil plainly written, and the words, Georgia School for the Deaf, as part of their address, otherwise they may not be delivered, for neither the postmaster nor railroad agent are supposed to know the names of the pupils. OVERSIGHT. While all reasonable oversight will be exercised at all times, the Institution is not a place of confinement, and can not be responsible for the safety of truant pupils, nor for injuries received during the infraction of the rules, neither is it responsible for the safety of pupils in transit to and from home. WHO ARE ENTITLED TO ADMISSION. All persons in the State between the ages of seven and twenty-five years, who are too deaf to be educated in the common schools, and who are otherwise in a condition mentally and physically to receive instruction profitably, and free from any immoral conduct or contagious disease", shall be entitled to admission as pupils to all the privileges of the respective departments of the ~orgia School for the Deaf, free of cost, to remain such a number of school terms or portions thereof as the Board of Trustees, upon recommendation by the principal, shall see proper to grant; provided, no pupil shal) be allowed to remain more than twelve terms. 372 In case parents or guardians are unable to furnish the pupil with such clothing as may be prescribed by the Board of Trustees, such clothing may be supplied by the authorities of the School free of cost, upon certificate of the Ordinary of the county from which the pupil comes, with his official seal attached, that said parent or guardian is not in a pecuniary condition to futnish said clothing. All pupils may be furnished shoes from the shop free of cost. In cases of great destitution, which fact may be made to appear by certificate of the Ordinary of the county, under seal, from which the pupil comes, the railroad fare of such pupil, coming to and going from the School, may be paid from the support fund of the School. In cases where pupils have no homes to which they ca,n be sent for the vacation, the Board of Commissioners of the county from which they come, or other proper authority, shall make the necessary provision for their care during vacation. How TO OBTAIN ADMISSION. It is necessary that applications for the admission of pupils be made in form, and any person who desires to enter a child as a pupil, will be furnished the necessary blanks for this purpose, together with all necessary information, when the principal is asked to do so. All communications should be answered by return mail, or as promptly as circumstances will admit. GENERAL INFORMATION. School opens usually about the middle of September and closes about the first of the following June, and it is very important that pupils should! enter promptly at the opening and remain to the close of the. term. 373 Except in cases of serious sickness or death in the immediate family it must be distinctly understood that the pupils will not be allowed to visit their homes during the session. Of course parents have the power to remove their children at any time they see proper to do so, but in case this is done, they will not be allowed to return until the opening of the next term in the September following. This rule has been rendered necessary from the fact that, several times, epidemics have been introduced by returning pupils, and this means a demoralization of the School for at least two months and sometimes longer. VISITING OF PARENTS OR GUARDIANS. It is earnestly urged upon parents to come with their children upon their first admission, so that they may see for themselves just what will be their surroundings, and for this purpose they will be entertained at the Institution for one day only, and this without cost. After the first time, however, if th~y choose to visit their children, which they have the privilege of doing, and which the authorities of the school are glad to have them do at any time, they will be expected to find accommodation outside the Institution, as they can not be entertained in it, and they will save themselves mortification, and others the unpleasant duty of refusing, by not asking it. CASUAL VISITORS. Persons visiting Cave Spring or vicinity, or others, are always welcome as visitors, from 9 a. m. to 1 p. m., and from 2:30 p. m. to 4 :30 p. m., on any day of the week except Saturday and Sunday, when admission can only be had to the grounds, or to the Sunday School exercises and the Lecture. 374 The Grounds are not to be considered as a public park, and are not opened as such, and visitors are expected to observe due decorum, and to refrain from molesting the flowers or shrubbery, otherwise they will be ejected. Any further information concerning the School will be furnished upon application to the Principal. Address, W. O.

Fortescue, a graduate of the Pennsylvania Institute for the Blind. The necessary funds were secured by private subscription, and the Academy for the Blind was opened in the city of Macon with four pupils, Mr. W. S. Fortescue being the first principal. In January, 1852, the legislature of Georgia passed an act establishing the Georgia A.cademy for the Blind and appropriated $5,000 for its support. This appropriation has been continued since that time, and increased from time to time as the circumstances required. The school for negroes was established in 1881, and although under the same board and superintendent, has always had separate grounds and buildings. 377 LOCATION. The white department of the Academy for the Blind now occupies the new building, located in Vineville, a suburb of Macon. This building was completed in 1907 and with the grounds represents an outlay of approximately $125,000. It is somewhat curious that the new building is modeled after the building of the school at Philadelphia, which sent out the founder and first principal of this institution. The building is of brick, with artificial stone trimmings, tile roof, cement porches and is lighted by electricity, heated by steam throughout and supplied with water from the city mains. The grounds compose twenty acres, and when improved according to plans already made, they promise to be unusually beautiful. The negro scho'ol is located within the city limits of Macon, at 247 Madison street, at a distance of about two miles from the white school. The main building is a three-story brick structure, supplied with gas and water. The grounds contain about three and one-half acres. PURPOSE OF THE ACADEMY. The school is designed for the education of children whose sight is so defective as to prevent their pursuing successfully a course of study in the ordinary schools. To this end it is necessary to train their remaining senses as carefully as possible in order to make them accurate sources of knowledge; to afford them the same opportunities as other children to become acquainted with the facts of human history and achievement as recorded in books; to teach them to study and to train 378 them in correct thinking; to develop sound bodies and sane minds; to teach them to obey properly constituted authority (which has usually been sadly neglected in the early training of blind children) ; to train their emotions to give appropriate and proportionate response to the influence of the varying degrees of right and wrong; in short, to give them an opportunity to prepare themselves for pleasure and service-for the more abundant life which is the purpose and privilege of every human existence. As incidental to all this-to train them, if possible, to be independent, self-supporting citizens in stead of public charges. THE WORK OF THE SCHOOL. During the year 1908 there were enrolled at the Georgia Academy for the Blind 117 pupils, of whom 86 were white, and 31 colored. In the white school there were 41 boys and 45 girls. In the colored. school there were 20 boys and 11 girls. There has been decided improvement in the work of the school over that of the previous year. The courses in the music and the industrial departments have been considerably enlarged, and as a result better work has been done in these dep~rtments and the reflex influence of the increased interest has shown itself throughout the schoo1. The courses of study as at present outlined covers ten years' work, and is intended to give a preparation equal to that given in the standard grammar school of seven years and the High School with a three years' course. As a matter of fact, we are not now accomplishing the same amount of work as the best schools for seeing children accomplish, but we are striving toward that end, and hope to attain it before a great while. 379 In muise, we give more varied instruction than is given in schools for seeing children of the same grade, for the reason that blind people who have sufficient ability more readily earn a living by means of music than in any other way. Our pupils are instructed in voice culture, chorus singing, piano, violin, flute, cornet, clarinet, pipe organ, theory, harmony and musical history. The Academy has a two-manual pipe organ which has been recently rebuilt and is ,in excellent condition. In manual training the school gives instruction in sloyd, wood work, broom making, chair caning; shoe cobbling and piano tuning. During 1909 we hope to put in operation a department of manual training for the girls. REQUIREMENTS FOR ADMISSION. Any citizen of Georgia may enter his child as a pupil in the Georgia Academy for the Blind, provided the following conditions are complied with: 1. The child's sight must be so defective as to make it impossible to pursue successfully the course of study in the common schools. (They need not be totally blind.) 2. The child must be between the ages of six and eighteen years. 3. The applicant must be sound in body and mind. (This is not an asylum and is no place for idiots or invalids.) 4. The applicant must be abl,e to dress and undress himself. 5. The parent must furnish a sufficient supply of sl1itable clothing-must pay the pupil's railroad fare to 380 the academy and return, and must take the pupil home during vacations. The State will furnish all necessary books and school supplies, board, laundry, medical attention, including the service of an oculist when needed, and necessary medicines. Pupils can not be withdrawn from school during the school year without the consent of the superintendent. If this is done, the pupil's rights are thereby forfeited. Leaves of absence may be granted by the superintendent when the circumstances warrant it. The school year begins the second Wednesday in September and closes on the second Wednesday in June in each year. How TO SECURE ADMISSION. Write to the superintendent of the Georgia Academy for the Blind and ask for an application blank, which will be sent you promptly. As soon as you receive the blank, answer carefully and fully all the questions in it, and return at once to the superintendent. You will then be no~ified whether the applicant will be admitted as a pupil, and full directions will be given as to when the pupil should be sent. Do not under any circumstances send a child to the academy until directed to do so by the superintendent. How TO REACH THE ACADEMY. Persons in Macon wishing to visit the white school, should take the Vineville street car, which passes the Union depot, and ask to be put off at the Academy for the Blind. The street car stops directly in front of the main building. 381 To reach the negro school, take the Cemetery Belt street car and ask to be put off at Hendrix alley. The school building is at the end of this alley and one block from the car line. PREVENTION OF BLINDNESS. As the report of the State School Commissioner wilI be read by educators and people interested in the education and welfare of the children of the State, it offers an unusual opportunity to reach a class of people of unusual intelligence and philanthropic interest in children. I desire therefore to solicit their interest and cooperation in a matter which should appeal strongly to every lover of children. I feel sure that some of the faets in the case are not generally known, and it will need zealous and earnest missionaries to carry the truth to those dark corners from which so many of the blind children come. Can you not do something in this way toward making men and women free f There is only one reliable formula for freedom-"Ye shall know the truth and the truth shall make you free." It is a fact which is probably not generally known that more than twenty-five per cent. of all the pupils in schools for the blind have become blind from causes which are absolutely preventable. By far the most common cause is the infection of the child's eyes at the time of birth, known to physicians as "ophthalmia neona torum." It is rare that a child is "born blind." Within a few days after birth "the child's eyelids become red and swollen and a yellowish secretion may be seen forming and discharging from the eyes. The nurse should at once call a physician, and in the meantime carefully cleanse the eyes by wiping them with a clean 382 piece of cloth or absorbent every half hour until the physician arrives. Care should be taken to .burn the cloth or cotton used at once, as the matter is highly infectious and may destroy the sight of even adults." Dr. F. Park Lewis, chairman of the New York commission for the blind, who is an authority on this subject, says: "This is one of the commonest and, at the same time, one of the most dangerous maladies of the eyes to which the child is subject. It is not confined to the tenement district; it may occur in any class of society." To this I would add that in the tenement district there is less likely to be a competent nurse or doctor, and so the disease oftener runs its course without detection and without treatment. In some cases the infection is not sufficient to destroy sight at once, but it does its work none the less surely, and many children who lose their sight without any apparent cause after they have entered the public schools, owe their affliction to infection at birth. Many States have laws to protect their infant citizens, as yet Georgia has none, although it is "a consummation devoutly to be wished." All good citizens should work for the passage of such a law, and meanwhile each ill his own small corner should try to protect the babies as far as may be possible. DEFECTIVE SIGHT IN PUBLIC SCHOOLS. When achild in the public schools, previously bright, studious and attentive, begins to be listless and inattentive, unless caused by bad nealth, defective eyesight 01 hearing should be suspected, and examination made at once. Many children lose their sight by being forced to use their eyes when temporarily weak, or by using 383 their eyes without the aid of suitable glasses. Blindness could be decreased and the sight of public school children improved by requiring the teachers in the common schools to test the eyesight of their pupils by the methods used in the Philadelphia public schools. Both the hearing and sight of all children in the schools should be tested at least once a year. Aside from the cruelty in permitting one of these little ones to be condemned to the" long night," it pays to save them from blindness or deafness as a matter of economy. To educate one of these defectives will cost the State approximately $2,500, and then the chances are probably five to one that he will not be as successful a wage-earner or wealth-producer as a normal person of equal intelligence. HELP TO FIND THE CHILDREN. There are doubtless many children in Georgia who should be in the Georgia Academy for the Blind, and are not, for the reason that their parents are not fully acquainted with the provisions made for their education. ,Ve request citizens everywhere, and especially school officials, to put us in touch with such cases by sending to the superintendent the addresses of the parents of blind children. If we are to give them the best service they should be placed in school before they are ten years old, in some cases much earlier. THE ADULT BLIND. Other States are undertaking systematic work for the education of the adult blind, who have become blind after reaching adult years. More than fifty per cent. of the blind lose their sight after they are twenty years old. These need more sympathy and help than any 384 other class of the blind. As a preliminary step towards organizing this work I would be pleased to have the addresses of any citizens of Georgia whose sight is so defective that they can not read ordinary print. It will take some time to get ready to start this work, and will need the intelligent and sympathetic co-opera- tion of a large number of citizens. You are earnestly requested to be one of the "tenth legion." Address all communications to G. F. OLIPHANT, Superintendent, Georgia Academy for the Blind, Macon, Georgia. 385 PENAL INSTITUTIONS. FULTON COUNTY INlJUSTRIAL FARM. Honorable JERE POUND, State School Commissioner, Atlanta, Ga. SIR: The law authorizing the establishment of juvenile prisons passed the Legislature in 1893, but it did not meet the views of those advocating such work, so nothing came of i.t ti111900, when an amendment was secured, under which Fulton County by a vote of her citizens, established the Fulton County Industrial Farm. In 1901, before the Institution was formally opened, another amendment was secured, which contained the provisions desired. The Institution received its first wards on February 19th, 1902. The first requisites were, good buildings, water, heat and light. ' We have two comfortable buildings; one of brick, the other of concrete reinforced with brick, the two cap- able of properly caring for one-hundred (100) wards, including an infirmary. There are now on our roll seventy-two, out on parole seventy-four. Water is secured at an elevation sufficient to give a good pressure by means of a hydraulic ram; heat, by hot air furnaces, and gas by the use of carbide and water. The three dormitories are furnished with single iron beds. The two school rooms are furnished with the best desks. 13de 386 Wards are given three hours a day in the essential elements of an English Education, the balance of the time being given to industrial pursuits and play. We are equipped so as to have work for all kinds of weather. In suitable weather for gardening we garden, in rainy weather and when it is extremely cold, we mend shoes and harness, work in blacksmith and wood shops, and put cane bottoms in chairs for the factory. Each day at noon wards are allowed to play under proper restraint as at school. Once a week we have base-ball; once a week, house games, and twice a week singing. On Sundays we have Sunday School in the morning, preaching in the afternoon and song service in the evening. Wards on entering the Institution are put under strict military discipline. In most cases we find it necessary at first to give attention to, their self-conceit by showing them that there is no honor in being guilty of a disgraceful act, taking the ground that sensible boys value a good name and a good character. As a rule we find some points in their disposition, which can effectually be used to their advantage. First, we command his obedience at any price. Then by just and considerate treatment, gain his confidence, and an influence over his behavior by proving to him that we have his good at heart. In disciplining we endeavor always to be deliberate and just, appealing as far as possible to his sense of right. The greatest power is obtained over the young by feeling a genuine interest in their success. The Atlanta Dental College, once a year, kindly looks after the teeth o::f the wards, the county only having to pay car fare. 387 .As far as practicable all requests and complaints are made in writing; politeness is taught by requiring them to be polite to one another. We also grade them on table manners; have the blessing at the table in concert, and the Lord's prayer in concert at bed time. They are encouraged to say their prayers individually as they retire, but great care is taken to avoid allowing this fact to have any bearing on their records. We impress upon them that Christianity is too sacred t9 be used for carrying a point-that it must be genuine and that it is a matter of conscience and one must never use a profession of faith in our Lord for an unworthy purpose. We endeavor to have them be sincere and offer no temptations to cause them to profess more than they feel; to show them how much the church is worth to true followers in helping them to overcome temptations and vice in this world, and to a glorious spiritual life after death; also, to impress upon them that life is short, and full of trials and that it is cowardly to complain. 1,Ve advise them to get all there is for them in this world, be prepared for the next, and accept all the trials, which they can not legitimately and honorably escape, on the idea that: "Human endurance ought to be equal to human calamity." If he so desires each ward is assigned a piece of ground lOx20 feet for a private garden, the county giving him the seed and fertilizer, and allowing him to have the proceeds to dispose of as he sees fit. While we- give them as a rule plain, but wholesome food, we endeavor to allow them as far as is consistent with economy to have part of all luxuries raised on the farm; and three times a year they have a big dinner; 388 namely, on July 4th, Thanksgiving day and Christmas day. On Sunday afternoons roasted peanuts which they raise themselves are served in winter, while fruits and watermelons are served in summer. The wards with regular employees do practically all building and repairs needed on the Farm; with the idea that it is more economical and a good training for the boys. As to parole wards, it is difficult for them to be satisfied with a job. They commence with good resolutions, but soon find themselves becoming more and more interested in matters not connected with their work, and the old habits which had become a part of them before being sent to the Farm, gradually undermine their good resolutions and they drift into the old ruts almost before they know it. It frequently happens that a letter or a visit will get tl}.em back into line. If not, they are brought back and given (as we term it) a post-graduate course. After a few breaks, they generally fall in line and give us no more trouble. More than 80 per cent. of those so far paroled have done well, and are now making their living honestly. Since organization we have had two to escape, who have never been captured. On the Farm are raised hogs, cows, chickens, pigeons, and a great variety of vegetables, including corn, oats, wheat, barley, potatoes and peas. Of these the surplus is consumed by the Public Works Department of the county and sold in the markets of Atlanta, or are canned for sale and winter use on the Farm, 389 SUGGESTIONS AS TO OUR NEEDS IN GEORGIA. Parents should be called before the court to answer for an offense committed by their child. When a child is arrested it ought to be carried home and a case made against the parents, not the child, for whatever offense it has committed. If parents prove that they have done their duty and are incapable of controlling the child, then it should be taken from them and placed where it may have an opportunity for learning to be useful, and society relieved of its annoyance. Should parents be unable to show except for reasons above stated that they have given the child that attention and care, which duty requires of all parents, they should be punished for the child's offense. J ails and courts should not become familiar to children, for early impressions are the most lasting, and being once embittered may ever after regard them not .as institutions for their protection, but rather as institutions for their humiliation and persecution. It places the children on the wrong side of the question. Children should be taught that court officers of all kinds are for their protection, and they should not be afraid of them. Parents should not too easily throw off the responsibility of supporting their children; even when taken away, they should still be required as far as practicable to support them. TRUANTS AND EXPELLED CHILDREN. All large cities should maintain one truant school, centrally located for teaching suspended and expelled children, managed by thoroughly competent and active teacherI'. ni.ded by truant officers, whose duty it should 390 be to become acquainted with the children, locate their homes and bring them to school when reported by the principal. Once assigned to this school, a child should be required to remain at least one year, before being allowed to resume his place in the regular school; said school should have two sessions, the pupils being required to bring lunches and spend the noon hour on the premises in charge of a teacher, thus avoiding congregating on the streets in the afternoons. Should a young boy be seen loafing about the streets unaccompanied by an older person after eight p. m., he should be carried home and a case made against the parents for not properly caring for him. If holding the parents responsible and the truant school fail to reach the case, our next hope is the probation court and its officers. This should have a thorough and patient trial, as we are now rapidly reaching the end of the chain. THE INSTITUTION FOR DELINQUENTS. When the probation officers fail to overcome the evil tendencies sufficiently to have the ward become a fit subject for society, we must resort to institutions, prepared to care for him twenty-four hours a day. This should not be larger than necessary for a complete equipment and should not be too far from his home. Here strict military discipline should be maintained and wards should be taught to work as well as to read. All prison features, as far as possible, and all prison terms should be left out of the laws, establishing such institutions and out of rules by which they are managed. The training should be such as to enable a ward when 391 paroled to make his support at once, and should not be released until those in authority believe he will do so. After a full, fair and honest effort to reclaim wards in an institution for the delinquent or neglected, if there should be some, who by their behavior prove themselves beyond any doubt to be degenerates, that their presence in the institution is injurious to others and of practically no value to themselves, they should be returned to the court committing them, to be transferred elsewhere. As time is so precious and change so sweet to this class, being ignorant as to the value of character, a ward should not be transferred, except for the best of reasons and not under eighteen years old.- Otherwise some would play bad, that they might go to prison for a shorter term. These provisions are now being satisfactorily enforced in some States, the subjects being passed on in one State by an association, in another the ward is re~ turned to the court committing. The objection to this course is found in the danger of the administration being too quick to declare a ward incorrigible, in order to be relieved of a troublesome boy., In one State the accused is sentenced as any other offender and sent to the institution with the provision that the sentence is to become void, if he remains on the E'arm till released by the proper authority and proves capable of improving his opportunities, otherwise he is returned to the court and suspended sentence enforced. In cases where the accused is small or the offense one not showing depravity, it would not be best to allow a sentence of such a grave nature passed on him. In all corrective work the feature to be considered nbove all others, is the men and women who are to direct 392 them. Give us sensible humane men and women, whose hearts are in the work and who are intelligent and patient, and we can dispense with a great deal of the theory. It is heart with heart, the prestige of one personality over another in ~he end, that influences for good or bad. The above remarks are intended to reach all perverse and delinquent children, let them be so from over indulgence, neglect, brutal treatment, or so by nature. Escaping from an institution for correction should be made a felony; that a ward who escapes to another State may be extradited. This is necessary, since it is very important to capture them when they attempt to ignore the law by defiance; besides, when the wards are made to know that they must obey the law, sending them to an institution, they more readily apply their energies in the right direction, and may be treated with so much more consideration. It follows that many will play pretty boy just to make their record, but while they put forth their energies in this direction which requires considerable self~ control and will, they strengthen their character, and, whether they will or not, make necessity a virtue and in most instances get their hearts into doing right in spite of their intentions at the beginning. One, who after four years in a reformatory, and wlio has for some years been an honest bread winner, advises against such a place. He was sent to the said institution after every effort possible was made to get him to leave off his evil ways. He gave no reasons, except that he was badly treated. A patient has frequently been heard to say, after he got well, that the doctor's Inid 393 medicine did him no good and has even refused some times to pay his bill. In closing I wish to state that the Superintendent believes there is good being done, and desires to acknowledge that whatever success has so far been attained is due to the co-operation of the Board of County Commissioners, the harmonious efforts on the part of the officers on the Farm, and the consideration accorded us by the people and the press. Respectfully submitted, T . ..:E. MEANS, Superintendent. 394 BRIEF SUMMARY OF REPORT OF THE GENERAL SECRETARY OF THE JUVENILE PROTECTIVE ASSOCIATION. For the year 1908. The Association was chartered January 11, 1908. The Constitution and By-Laws were adopted February 19, 1908. Early in the year illustrated booklets were printed and sent out. The Association next put forth efforts to estop the unlawful arrest of children in this and other cities and were to some extent successful. On April 2d the Legislative Committee began actively to work for legislation on behalf of the Juvenile Court and Probation System in Georgia; and later to get a bill passed looking to an appropriation from the Legislature of $25,000, with which to care for the State's youthful offenders on 100 acres of the Juvenile State Jj--'arm, which were to be conveyed to the State. This involved an expenditure of about $1,340.00 beginning about the first of April and closing with the session of the Legislature. Branch Associations were formed in Carrollton, Newnan, LaGrange, Eatonton, Columbus and Dawson, Ga. Children aided during the year in this office and in Branch Associations, approximately 290. States that have been, and are being, assisted by the Association to secure needed legislation are Alabama, Arkansas, Florida, Georgia, North Carolina, South Carolina, Mississippi, Tennessee and Virginia. 395 . The net proceeds on the Juvenile State Farm were $549.77. This excellent gift of Dr. L. G. Hardman, of Commerce, Ga., is in Jackson County on the Southern Railway in six miles of Athens, Ga., and numbers 426 acres, well watered, and some good timber. The Juvenile Protective Association has a bond for title to this property and a warrantee deed will be made by Dr. Hardman when $25,000 is in the treasury for improve-: ments on the farm. This amount is expected this year, 1909. rrhe Association has spent about $800.00 on this farm and has now in the treasury about $1,200.00 and good subscriptions amounting to several thousand dollars, and is, at this writing (April 8th, 1909) devising practical business methods for raising the rest of the amount given above. Prominent Georgians now connected with this movement will see that it succeeds, such men as Dr. L. G. Hardman, President of the Association; Gen. Clifford L. Anderson, First Vice-President; Judge W. R. Hammond, Treasurer; Mr. W. S. Witham, Chairman Finance Committee; J as. L. Anderson, Chairman of Committee on Legislation; E. C. Callaway, J. R. Smith, Frank Eastman, Asa G. Candler, Jas. T. Wright, E. Van Winkle, A. R. Holderby, Henry A. Atkinson, M. Ashby Jones, Joe S. Davis and Crawford Jackson. These gentlemen are also Trustees. In addition to the above summary, perhaps an extract from our charter will give a clearer idea of the object of this philanthropic corporation. The extract is as follows: "The general purpose of said corporation is to protect and properly train delinquent and dependent children 396 of the State of Georgia and other States in the United States of America. "And to this end, they desire the power to establish charitable institutions, of such character, and in such locations in the State of Georgia, and elsewhere, as said corporation may determine upon; in which institutions such delinquent and dependent children may be trained and educated, industrially, morally, intellectually, political1y, and otherwise; with all the powers relative to the commitment, custody, care and indenture of said children in such institution or institutions as may be established by said corporation, and the government thereof, now or hereafter authorized by the laws of Georgia or any other State in which said institutions may be established; and with power and authority to said corporation, through its properly organized Board of Trustees, to make such rules and regulations for the government and control of said institution as in their judgment may be for the best interests of the inmates tliereof, and which are likely to further the purposes of their establishment. "It is the further purpose of your petitioners, that said corporation shall undertake to cause the organization, throughout the State of Georgia, and in the other States in which it may operate, of Juvenile Courts, and the adoption of the Probation System; and to seek to procure such legislation as may be necessary to accomplish this purpose, looking to the removal from the jurisdiction of the ordinary criminal courts, of wayward and delinquent children, having in view their ultimate reformation and their training as good citizens in the community in which they reside. 397 "The principal place of business of said corporation is to be in the city of Atlanta, and State of Georgia; but petitioners desire that said corporation shall have the right and privilege of establishing branch offices and branch societies or associations, of the same kind and character, in any other part of the State of Georgia, and in other States and Territories of the United States, wherever it may deem wise and proper. "They desire for said corporation the power to receive donations or bequests from individuals, corporations, or societies, and appropriations from State, municipal and national governments, of money and other property suitable for the purposes of its organization, and to be used in carrying said purposes into effect. " They desire for said corporation the power to sue and be sued; to make such by-laws, rules and regulations as to the membership in, and thegovernment of, said corporation, as may be deemed best; to hold and own property necessary to the purposes of its organization; to buy and sell the same, whenever in its judgment it is deemed best so to do; to have and use a common seal,: and generally to do and perform all other acts, and to exercise all other powers usual and proper to corporations of this character, and which may be authorized by the laws of this State, and as may be necessary to carry out the purposes of said corporation. "Wherefore, your petitioners pray that they, their associates and successors, be incorporated under the name and style aforesaid, for the term of twenty (20) years, as provided by law, with all the rights and privileges of renewal that may be authorized by law; and 398 with all the rights, powers, and privileges, and subject to all the limitations set out in the foregoing petition. CLIFFORD L. ANDERSON, W. R. HAMMOND, Attorneys for Petitioners. Granted January 11, 1908." While the Association has carried on a campaign of education and organization as far as possible throughout the South, it is now our supreme purpose to build on the tract of land spoken of above a well equipped school, home and juvenile commonwealth combined, modeled somewhat after the George Junior Republic at li--'reeville, N. Y. Our oft quoted creed is : To take a rough, ru.d.....e. boy and lift him up by frequent little touches of love and wisdom, by oft-repeated acts of study and patience, and make of him a shining and useful member of society-this is the art of all arts, and is the more transcendent because the more divine. Respectfully submitted, CRAWFORD JACKSON, General Secretary. 399 SPECIAL SCHOOLS REPORT OF THE BERRY SCHOOL, ROME, GA. MARTHA BERRY, Founder and Director. As this is the first report of the Berry School to the State School Commissioner, it seems in order briefly to review the history and growth of the institution. About eleven years ago Miss Berry began a Sunday School in a smal110g cabin on her home place, the children of poor tenants on neighboring farms being her pupils. Riding about the" flatwoods," as the surrounding country is known locally, in search of pupils for the school, she found that there was great need of both day schools and Sunday schools in all parts of the county. r.{.'he result was that she built a small schoolhouse near her own home, and either established or revived three other schools in the most needy parts of the county. These four schools she conducted, partly with the aid of the County Board, until a new and better plan formed itself in her mind. Her experience had taught her that the work of the schools was largely undone by the influence of the homes. If a lasting work was to be accomplished, the pupils must be under the infhience of the teachers while at work and playas well as while at study. A boarding-school was needed. So a small dormitory was built and furnished, teachers secured and the Boys' Industrial School was opened January 13, 1902, with five students. Such was the beginning of the present institution. From the first, growth was rapid; each year there have 400 been more applications for admission than could be accepted, in spite of the fact that accommodations have been increased as rapidly as the resources of the school would allow. From the Boys' Industrial School of 1902, with its 5 students, 83 acres of land, and two small buildings, has grown the present institution, with 150 students, and a plant, including 1,400 acres of land, valued at approximately $150,000. CHARACTER AND PURPOSE. The Berry School is a Christian industrial school for country boys. It represents a serious, and thus far apparently successful, attempt to adapt modern education to the needs of the country boy. It draws its students entirely from the rural districts, no boy from the city being admitted. Its aim is, as a visitor has well put it, "to build victorious manhood into the fabric of the nation's life." This it endeavors to accomplish by giving a perfectly rounded education in which are combined mental, moral and industrial training of the highest type. FACULTY. The Faculty consists of the Director, Principal, Manager of the Industrial Department, eight teachers, and four instructors in the Industrial Department. CURRICULUM. The course of study extends over seven years, divided as follows: Preparatory School, two years; Grammar School, two years; High School, three years. The Preparatory course is intended for those boys and young men who have had very little opportunity to ob- tain all edlJcation, and is designed to give the fundamen- 401 tals of education in a form adapted to pupils advanced in age but backward in their studies, not from lack of mental ability but from lack of opportunity. The Grammar School gives the essentials of a common school education, and prepares the student for the High SchooL In the High School three courses are offered: The Agricultural course, for those students who expect to farm; the Academic course, for those who expect to take up a trade, enter business, or teach in the public .. common schools; the College Preparatory course, for those expecting to enter college. INDUSTRIAL DEPARTMENT. Perhaps the feature of the school of greatest interest ip, the industrial department. All the work necessary for the running of the farm, dairy, laundry, shops, kitchen, care of grounds and buildings, and so forth, is done by the boys, under the direction of instructors. Each student works two hours a day. The aim of the industrial department is two-fold: First, to decrease the cost of tuition and board; second, to give the students right views of labor and to train them for effi.., cient service with hands and brains. SPECIAL FEATURES. A location well-nigh ideal in its beauty and charm, and therefore possessing the highest inspirational and educative value. A thorough, required four years' course in the English Bible; which makes for moral strength and purity. A required two-years' course in music, of great cllltural value. A student-body carefully selected from a large nUID- 402 bel' of applicants for their physical, mental and moral soundness, eager to get an education and worthy of the best. A "school spirit" which visitors notice as remarkable. The" inspiration of the achievement:" The mental and moral upward impulse given to every student who comes under the influence of the great work which the school's founder is doing. A thorough academic education combined with industrial training in which the practical is not lost sight of in the theoretical. INFLUENCE. It may not be out of place to say that, in addition to having had a large share in the establishment of the District Agricultural Schools, this school is constantly being taken as a model for the formation of similar schools in this and other States. PLANS FOR 1909-1910. The plans for the next year include, among other things, the following: A new dormitory, to accommodate seventy-five boys, so as to allow the school to admit two hundred students. A cannery, thoroughly equipped with best modern machinery. The complete equipment of our present steam laundry. Complete equipment for the workshop, and the institution of a course in elementary wood- and iron-workmg. The lengthening of the school year from eight to eight and one-half months. ROBT. H. ADAMS, A. M. Principal. 403 WOMANS CLUB WORK REPORT SCHOOL IMPROVEMENT ASSOCIATION. ATHENS, GA., March 27th, 1909. HON. JERE M.POUND, Atlanta, Ga. DEAR SIR: Since sending in my report of 1907 to April, 1908, I have attended a number of public meetings in the interest of School Improvement work. Among these were the Conferenc~ for Education in the South at Memphis, the annual meeting of the Georgia Educational Association at Augusta, the annual meeting of the Georgia County School Commissioners at Brunswick, a series of teachers' Summer Institutes, the annual meeting of Georgia Federation of Women's Clubs at Valdosta, the meeting of the. Industrial Educational Association in Atlanta. I had an appointment to attend the S. C. Educational meeting in December and to make an address, but the death of a kinsman prevented my' fulfilling this. At the request of President Soule, I planned and superintended a four days' Conference of Farmers' Wives at the new building of the State College of Agriculture in January, 1909. Although the expenses of this meeting were shared by the College of Agriculture, and by Athens friends and by Mr. George Foster Peabod..:y, who contributed one hundred dollars, it was distinctly a School Improvement meeting, for with a few exceptions the subjects selected were those which tend 404 to bring home and school interests into closer correlation. For instance, the demonstrations and lectures on cooking were not for the purpose of showing the audience how to cook, but how this instruction is given in the Domestic Science work of Normal Schools and how it can be given in the grammar grade schools. The out-of-town visitors were mainly representatives from county School Improvement Clubs, or Mothers' Co-operative Circles. We had a choice selection of the best trained and most successful people as speakers. One luncheon was given for all the visitors to the Farmers' Conference, then in session, the lady visitors, the faculty of the Agricultural College and the students. This was served in the spotles's and beautiful dairy room of the College. Some Athens friends and a delegation of young ladies from the Senior class of the Normal School aided in serving this luncheon, which was evi~ dently enjoyed by everyone. On other days coffee and tea were served to the visitors from the country who brought dinners and spent the day. These creature comforts were shared by their husbands who were very appreciative. We had on exhibition a group of pictures from Miss Martha Berry's school at Rome, a similar group fr'om the Georgia Normal and Industrial College, at Milledge~ ville, and a large collection of views of country school houses, good ones, bad ones and the indifferent ones. The Domestic Science Department of the Augusta Public Schools, through the courtesy of Miss Holt, principal, contributed a choice exhibit of hand work by the pupils in her charge. The McGregor Book Company, of Athens, loaned a choice selection of books suitable for school libraries, and two Carnegie Traveling Librar- 405 ies were loaned by Mrs. Eugene Heard, of Elberton. There was exhibited also a large selection of labor-saving utensils and appliances, including the latest improvements for cooking, alcohol stoves, steam and fireless cookers. The attendance at these meetings was not very large, except on the last day, but the good results already gained from them are quite flattering. During the session of the University Summer School of 1908, our School Improvement Club workers held an interesting meeting, at which the achievements and plans of this especial line of endeavor were so well explained, that good work has followed as a direct result of interest then created. Previous to that date I had visited several counties, and had organized some promising clubs among country school children, and had delivered addresses in a half dozen places. On account of illness in our household, I could not attend this meeting at the Summer School and was compelled to cancel all engagements for August and September. During these months I carried on the supervision of Clubs already at work, and directed the organization of new ones through letters, and by the distribution of literature. In October I visited Monticello; where a club has been quite successful in its work for the improvement of the High School and grounds. During that month, with clerical assistance I sent letters of inquiry concerning progress, to everyone who had ever communicated with me on the subject of improving our country schools. This list included county school officials, teachers in town and country, secretaries of Women's Clubs, Presidents and Chairmen of School Improvement Clubs, and 406 of Mothers' and Teachers' Co-operative Circles, heads of families interested in the subject, and others. Judging from the small proportion of answers received, our postal system is very deficient, or people do not go for their mail, or going for it, do not read it. For the sake of economy I used some envelopes without my address, and a goodly number of these went to the dead letter office, although addressed to post-offices from which letters had been mailed, and some from postoffice address furnished me by teachers' list sent me by County School Commissioners. The good news contained in the answers which did come, fully compensate for the silence of the others. Although our people as a rule do not like to tabulate or report and the statements, in many cases of very thorough work, have not been made in a definite or satisfactory shape, I am confident we have achieved a decided advance on the records of the previous year. This applies mostly to local organizations which have been steadily increasing in numbers and enthusiasm since our last annual report. As to the organization by counties, I am sorry I have no satisfactory report to furnish.. Two-thirds of the counties have had committees for organization appointed, and some few of these have elected officers and have succeeded in doing some effective work, yet this phase of our campai!,"ll plan is not succeeding as it should. Without full co-operation and efficient work on the part of county officials and educational leaders in the counties, we can not hope for substantial and lasting associations, except through the slower method of local organizations, which will finally call for a broader organization of counties. 407 For this reason we need to make a very active and judiciously planned campaign of speakers and visitors throughout our entire State, especially in those backward counties, remote from cities and hardly yet touched by railroads. To be effective, a series of meetings should be planned for every county, and at a selected number of centres of interest. This line of campaign should be further strengthened by a wide distribution of campaign literature. As you know, local tax interest and the revival or awakening of interest in the care of the school-houses and grounds are vitally associated, one flourishes where the other has made a way. The local clubs (and many school patrons not in clubs) have been interested in getting small but carefully selected libraries for the schools in their communities, also pictures and better desks. Tree planting received a creditable share of attention during the past year, also preparations for school gardens have been given much more attention than formerly. By their artistic work, and thorough cleanliness of the school grounds, some of the Junior Clubs have aroused a spirit of emulation which has led to pleasant improvements in the communities. One case of this class recalls itself. A young man engaged to teach a small school in a very small town, first formed his pupils into a club to better the condition of the school property. He begged the paint from a merchant in a larger town, and persuaded the ladies of the little village to hold some festivals to make money to pay for the work of painting the school house. Having the school house very white, with green blinds, the small band of workers proceeded to beautify the grounds. 408 Bermuda sod was planted in front with a walk curving from the corner of the lot, trees already there were carefully trimmed, shrubbery and roses were planted along the sides of the school lot, not interfering with the playground space, trellises were built, and vines planted to screen outhouses, the well was cleaned, the cover painted, trellis and vines placed there. Then with the help of the big boys the teacher straightened the line of the front of the school property, and made a real, first-class side-walk. Now these things took time, energy and perseverence in the face of rebuffs. The citizens first laughed, then criticised, then "fell to" and helped. In less than a year every house in sight had a fresh coat of paint, and sidewalks were looked upon as necessities rather than novelties. A coat of paint on the school house had turned the tide of thought, and had created a new mental attitude in the little town. The best results have been shown in the awakening of civic pride, and in an increase of friendly association on the part of the people who have begun to use the school house for all public occasions. In a number of small towns our School Improvement Clubs have broadened into Civic leagues and "Library and School" clubs. Some have federated with the organization of Women's Clubs. Poplar Spring Club, in Laurens County, is an example, having joined the State Federation soon after its own formation. The Federation has given this school an hydraulic ram to bring the water to the school house from a spring at the foot of the hill behind the church. Whenever it has been practicable I have urged that the mothers of the country school children form reading circles and meet at least once a month. 111 my personal 409 experience I have seen a great change made in the thought of a rural community by the systematic circulation of such good literature as furnished by Harper's, Century, Scribners' and other leading monthly magazine's, while a first class weekly publication with good illustrations, persistently sent to the neighbors, is worth more than its weight in gold, if ounces of inorganic matter can be an estimate of the subtle and fine changes wrought in the minds of a people awakening to the ambition of knowing something beyond their daily horizon. Our country people as a rule do not read for the love of it, and therefore they do not understand the need of instilling the love for good literature in the minds of their children, or of having them form the habit of reading. Recognizing this lack our efforts must be directed to a better appreciation of libraries, and a knowledge of their use, and our country communities must have libraries, in order that the children of those communities can have the opportunity for a broad culture during the formative period of their youth. I could cite dozens of instances of the utter lack of books and reading in well equipped comfortable country homes, and these instances would seem humorous if they did not portray the tragedy of narrow, cramped intelligences. The army of our school teachers who are undertaking to teach in the common country schools, in many cases poorly trained themselves, have no helps in reference books, encyclopredias or dictionaries, and often with only poor, dilapidated, and out of date maps. How can these make "bricks without straw?" Our State can learn something from the object lesson furnished by the State of Ohio. In that State a 410 complete system has been inaugurated by means of which when the patrons of schools can not go to the libraries, the libraries go to them. The Ohio leaders have decided that since it is the duty of a State to educate its people, it is likewise its duty, within reasonable limits, to furnish the means of education. While conditions vary in the two States, Georgia can easily adopt the best of measures used in Ohio, for the distribution of such necessary books as will help our country schools in accomplishing much more satisfactory work. Our county officials, teachers and parents are asked to co-operate in plans for furnishing pleasant occupations for the country school children during their long vacations. School contests and rallies can be held in the early autumn, exhibits made by pupils and prizes awarded. These vacation plans can include gardening experiments in corn, cotton, cane and other field crops, the growing of flowers and shrubs and fruit, the care of live stock including chickens. The making of jellies, fruit canning and preserving, bread making, and sewing might be made very successful in the hands of careful and encouraging mothers. Also courses in reading, music practice, with occasional social meetings to help these, can be directed by some of the School Improvement Club members, or by other adult members of the neighborhood. Such methods of encouraging boys and girls to utilize their vacations, and to find happiness in work, have been productive of good in other States. If tried here they will bring us rich rewards.

Education work over the State was reported at the Valdosta convention by Mrs. Robert Emory Park, chairman of the education committee of the State federation. Mrs. Park's report was as follows: At the beginning of the year the gen~ral ,chairman , of education, with the approval of the president, di- vided the work into five departments ofcOK>rdinate importance, each with its own chairman, viz: Kindergarten, Mrs. Nellie Peters Black, chairman; compulsory education, Mrs. Warren Boyd, chairman; 'local taxation, Mrs. Edward T'. Brown, chairman; school improvement, Mrs. Walter B. Hill, chairman; model schools. directors: Habersham county, Mrs. Eugene Lipscomb, Danielsville; Madison county, Mrs. Eugene Heard; Cass Station, Bartow county, Mrs. M. L. J ohnson; 'Watters district, Floyd county, Mrs. J. Lindsay Johnson. Each of these committees has done its work admirably. Mrs. Warren Boyd has created great interest in compulsory education by her active campaign. rhrough the president, Mrs. Walter B. Hill has issued several able pamphlets in the furtherance of school improvement. These pamphlets are heartily commended, and you are urged to apply for them and to form school improvement committees in your clubs. Our club report says: ' 'The lady teachers in our school are all members of our club, and whenever they need help they know they can call on their club for assistance. This spring we got up an entertainment to raise money for some much needed repairs on our school house." This is an ideal relation between school and club. 417 Cherish every model school. You know of the splendid work done for the Tallulah school by your zealous president. AMOUNT CONTRIBUTED BY CLUB TO EDUCATION. The sum of nearly $1,700 given by the clubs to Tallulah does not represent all financial aid furnished clubs in education. Some have helped Rabun Gap, , others have given to the Berry Industrial School, one club contributing $25 to that wonderful institution for the training of mountain boys. Only nine clubs sent any reply to a circular letter asking for information as to the amount contributed by each club to educational purposes. It is told in ancient story that a king held a council at w:hich he listened in silence to the report of each of his five ministers, one after another, and then dismissed them. His Lord Chamberlain said to him in surprise: "Sire, you spoke not a word at your council table." The king replied: "I spoke with five tongues, each one wiser than mine." rt'he example of the wise king is to be commended. Each chairman. will speak of her specialty. A circular was sent to each chapter president asking her to appoint an educational committee in her club corresponding to the State committee, and divided in the same manner, with the exception that the model schools committee should be a ways and means committee for raising funds for the Tallulah school. So far as reported, only three or four clubs responded to this, deeming it too complicated, perhaps, for study clubs. It is in reality simple, requiring only one or two educational meetings during the year, or an occas- 14-de 418 ional ten minutes of the monthly or semi-monthly meeting of the club. The members could thus be kept abreast of the educational renaissance-crusade is a better word-a vital, living issue, more penetrating and interpenetrating the entire State, than any other force. The Tifton Club was the first to report the appointment of an educational committee. The Atlanta Woman's Club had already an active committee which has this year introduced industrial training into a country school called the Marion Smith, thus putting it in line with our rural model schools, making the fifth in which the federation is demonstrating its practical idea of suiting education to environment. And just here we will add that we are in a receptive mood, and that when we establish our model farm school our farmer friends are invited to give us~my thing from a pig to a potato, from a cow to a cucumber, from an egg to an engine, and from an axto an "auto." VYORK FOR NEGRO CHILDREN. A notable effort has been made by the Athens Woman's Club to establish an Industrial Home for colored children, where they can be cared for and taught while their mothers are at work. It is a step in the right direction, a timely experiment to solve one most difficl1lt social problem. A unique experiment in industrial education for negro children has been made by Mrs. Eugene Heard at Middleton. Remember what Groebel says: "The destiny of nations lies more in the heads of women-the mothers-than in all the possessions of power." 419 Women of Georgia, face the situation; rouse you to the work before you. Carry your torches into the recesses of the mountain and the dark places of the valley. Longing hearts and outstretched hands are waiting to receive you. Answer the call of the mountain and the cry of the plain. Let not Georgia girls appeal to northern philanthropists for means to obtain an education. They are our girls. It is our dutyplain, plain, before us. Let us answer the appealing Macedonian cry, "Come and help us!" A NEW COMMITTEE. I bring you the good tidings of a new committee, formed by your executive board and ratified by your action this morning, viz.: The student's aid committee, whose object is the accumulation and disbursement of a loan fund for the education of Georgia girls. The initiative in this matter, beneficent and far-reaching in its results, was taken by Mrs. Frank Woodruff, of Atlanta, and will be laid before you by its originator. Suffice it to say that much time and thought have been given to the formation of this committee, and we can assure you tha1 it is splendidly officered. Mrs. H. B. Wey, president; Mrs. Robert Zahner, vice-president; Mrs. Frank Woodruff, secretary; Mrs. David W oodward, treasurer. Give this committee your aid and sympathy. SCHOLARSHIPS OFFERED TO THE FEDERATION. ,There are already a number of literary scholarships offered to individual clubs, and in consideration of this fact, and to further the work of federation, the executive board have decided to form another 420 committee, called the gift scholarship committee. Mrs. Hugh Willet has been appointed chairman of this com- mittee, and Mrs. George B. Hinman, of Atlanta, has accepted the chairmanship of the music section. Through the president of the Atlanta Oity Feder- ation, Mrs. Sam D. Jones, the Atlanta Conservatory of Music has offered three scholarships to the State feder~ ation, one i? voice, one in piano, and one in oratory. Miss Willette Allen, principal of the Atlanta Kindergarten Training School, has offered a scholarship in her admirable institution. Miss Rosa Woodberry offers tuition for a four years' college preparatory course to a designated university. This is merely the beginning of scholarships which will be offered in every section of the State. The Atlanta Conservatory of Music offers, through Mrs. Sam D. J ories, president of the city federation, to the State federation three scholarships, as follows: One in piano, under Professor Henry Hunter Welsh. One in voice, under Professor Paul Schwarz Wagner. One in oratory, under Miss Sarah Adelle Eastlack. Each of the above-named teachers is an artist. The scholarships, under Professor Schwarz Wagner and Miss Eastlack go to young women of talent unable otherwise to study in the conservatory. Mr. Welsh makes the following limitations to the scholarship, which he offers: 1. The scholarship shall be for a male pupil. 2. The candidate shall be between 14 and 20 years of age. , . 3. The candidate must declare to Mr. Welsh per- sonally his intention of entering the musical profession us a concert pianist. 421 Candidates will please note that these scholarships are for tuition only and do n01 include board and other expenses. Candidates will apply at once to Mrs. George B. Hinman, State chairman of music scholarships, 759 Piedmont avenue, Atlanta, Ga. Mrs. Hinman has been appointed chairman of the. music section of the gift scholarship committee, and will soon issue a statement concerning the award. 1'he public spirit and generosity of the directors of the Conservatory of Music are deeply appreciated by the women of the federation throughout the entire State. The directors are helping to solve the great problem of which Lanier cries out in the symphony: "Alas, for the poor to have some part. In YOUI' sweet lands of art, Makes problems not for head but heart." MRS. CUNNINGHAM'S OFFER. Mrs. Robert Cunningham, of Agnes Scott College, Decatur, makes the following offer to the State education committee through the committee on education of Atlanta Woman's Club. Mrs. Cunningham will deliver either of two lectures which she has been accustomed to give professionally to any club in the federation for the fee of $10.00, which fee Mrs. Cunningham will present in full to the educational work of the federation through the educational committee of the Atlanta Woman's Club, of which she is a member. This offer applies not only to clubs in the close vicinity of Atlanta, but to clubs through the State. Traveling expenses will necessarily be added, but :Mrs. Cunningham will be traveling through. the State on business of her own, from time to time, and whenever it is possible to so arrange, all traveling expenses can be spared the clubs. Those desiring to have one of the lectures will do well to communicate by mail with Mrs. Cunningham, and she can then inform them as to when she will be in their section of the State. Notice is here given that she will be in South Georgia the first and second weeks in December. ' The topics of the lectures are: 1. "How to Know Pictures." 2. "How to Know Sculpture." 3. "Civic Leagues." The club securing a lecture from Mrs. Cunningham by payment of the fee of $10.00, can make any use de- sired of it, either inviting friends or charging an ad- mission fee. Address all communicatoins to Mrs. Robert Cunning- ham, Agnes Scott College, Decatur, Ga. MRS. R. E. PARK. 423 REPORT COMMITTEE ON COMPULSORY EDUCATION. Mrs. Warren Boyd, chairman; Mrs. W. P. Pattillo, Mrs. Hugh Willet, Mrs. Oscar Peeples, Mrs. A. J. McKelway, Mrs. Mary E. Bryan, Mrs. Sam D. Jones, Mrs. C. B. Wilmer, Miss Sarah Converse, Mrs. Howard Van \Vyck, Mrs. M. A. Lipscomb, ex-officio, Mrs. R. E. Park, ex-officio. The Committee on Compulsory Education has met but few times, most of its work having been transacted in writing, but it is able to report a strikingly increased public sentiment in favor of a School Attendance Law. Its first object has been to form sub-committees in every federated club in the State, and, to this end, two letters have beep. sent to each club president who had not reported such a committee, asking that one be appointed. While response to these has been by no means complete, we are able to report the following sub-com-. mittees, which have been of untold assistance to the work of the Federation committee: Acworth (Carrie Dyer Reading Club), Mrs. E. M. Bailey, Mrs. J. A. Reed, Miss Elizabeth Logan. Augusta (Philomathic), Miss Louise Nees, Mrs. W. W. Smythe, Mrs.r. B. Morgan, Mrs. Ed. Platt, Miss Ethel Parks. Bainbridge (Woman's Club), Mrs. E. M.

This Course of Study indicates the order in which the text-books should be studied. The time required to complete each division of the work will vary. The work in each of the Fourth, Fifth, Sixth and Seventh divisions may require eight, nine or ten months. In schools having only one teacher, it may be necessary to alternate two studies. Composition work should be stressed; letters, sketches, essays, written exercises in connection with the regular lessons. The School Law requires pupils to take all the studies iIi their respective grades. Require every pupil to take the annual written examinations. Those pupils of the seventh grade, the highest grade in the common schools, who make an average of 80% in the annual examination, will receive a Certificate. JERE M. POUND.
