ATLANTA, GA., June 1, 1910.
To His Excellency, Jos. M. BROWN, Governor of Georgia.
DEAR SUI.:-I have the honor of transmitting to you for submission to the General Assembly the ThirtyEighth Report of the Department of Education.
The year 1909 was one of great progress. I hope the perusal of this report will prove satisfactory to you.
Very truly yours, JERE M. POUND,
State School Commissioner.


THE THIRTY-EIGHTH ANNUAL REPORT'
OF THE
DEPART'MENT OF EDUCATION
TO THE
GENERAL ASSEMBLY OF THE STATE OF GEORGIA.
Gentlemen of the General Assembly:
I beg leave to transmit, in obedience to law, through His Excellency, Governor Joseph M. Brown, this report of educational condHions and of school operations throughout the State for the year 1909. Permit me to say, here in the beginning, that, while we have much to do-in fact, have hardly begun-to work out an ideal'system of education for our people and while all is as yet in a crude and imperfect state, our progress last year was very great and gratifying. No State in the South believes more firmly in the blessings to be derived from universal education than does Georgia, and none anywhere gives fairer promise of development along thoroughly sane and conservative but original lines.
During the year, not being satisfied with the meager reports' rendered this Department by school officials and by this Department to the General Assembly, I changed and enlarged the prescribed report blanks. The effect has been what was desired. The Department is now in possession of more definite information about the schools and their operations than it has ever had before, and is able to make what is considered to be the best showing in its history. But while this is true, a much better ex-

position of the workings of our various educational systems ought to be made still but can never be, until the General Assembly lodges with the State School Commissioner some reasonable power to compel delinquent s'chool officials to make such reports as are requested and required of them.
In spite of the fact that due notice was given that annual reports would be expected from all systems under the supervision of this Department by February first and constant reminders were s'ent out subsequently, we had to go to press the first of June without reports from seven whole counties and from eleven urban systems. The statistics submitted are inaccurate to this extent; and all totals are less by.what those counties and towns would have reported than they should be. Some of these systems have what they consider good reasons, perhaps, for their delinquency, but it would be regarded by them as unbearable if the State should fail to appropriate to them a part of the public school funds. Equally intolerable, therefore, ought the Staie to regard any lack of information as to what is being done with the money thus appropriated and the results that have been obtained through its use.
The year 1909 broke, as it ought to have done, well nigh every desirable and material record. For instance, it was reported in 1908 that the total enrollment was 508,403. Last year, it was 547,912 pupils. This gives us a gain of 39,509 in a single year-an increase that is truly amazing, and I should be inclined to sllspect an error of considerable proportions in the figures furnished' us, if more than usual care had not been taken to secure accurate returns. It may be that this very care is immediately productive of a result we had hardly hoped to obtain so completely-that is to say, a juster and com-
Ii

pleter exposition of the influence our schools are really exerting. However this may be, it appears from these statistics submitted that the enrollment in our common schools, as' shown by reports which are known definitely to be incomplete and to fall short of the mark, was in 1909 about 75 per cent., or three-fourths of the entire schools population, or a gain in a single year of about 7%, per cent. But the beneficial and far-reaching influence of the common schools can not be fully appreciated until it is remembered that while the school age is from six to eighteen years, the average child will pass through and complete the course of study by the time he is thirteen or fourteen years of age and have nearly half of his time left. If, then, three-fourths of the children were enrolled last year, we may be assured that the schools are reaching with their gospel of light and truth almost every home blessed with children in the entire commonwealth. This ought to be very welcome intelligence to the General Assembly and ought to encourage you to greater liberality still in dealing with the common school system. No money spent upon it is money spent in vain.
The average attendance for the year was 357,710. This is about 65 per cent. of the enr'Ollment, which means that for every 100 children whose names appear on the, rolls of the schools, 65 sat each day at the feet of their teachers. When one considers the vast area of the State, the great variety of physical conditions that exist and all the changing incidents of school life, he will see that these figures indicate a very wholesome appreciation of the schools by the people.
, We built last year 320 schoolhouses at a t'Otal cost of $467,891. The average house cost, therefore, about $1,500. There was hardly so much money spent in this' constructive way last year as during the previous one but
7

more houses were' erected. The meauing of this is that more country schoolhouses were built during 1909 then during 1908, while during the preceding year" the cities and towns were chiefly busied in this way.
It was reported in 1908, that the total value of school properties in the State was $5,305,853. Last year the value was $8,603,853. I do not believe these figures indicate that we added that much to our school property during the year. They indicate only that we have secured more accurate and reliable reports. Nevertheless, there was a highly satisfactory increase in the value of our school properties, an increase not exceeded, perhaps, by that of any previous year.
In 1908, we reported 19 countieS' as operating countywide local tax systems. T'wo other counties, Newton and Burke, are now to be added to ,the liS't, making a total of 21. Moreover, 93 new di'8tricts adopted local tax systems,' making a total of such districts now in operation 422. In this respect, also, the year was remarkable. This willingnesS' on the part of the people to tax themselves shows a"iremendou&. ~r9"wth of educational sentiment; but the peculiar direction it is taking involyes a possible future danger. It has been observed that it is fairly easy to carry a local tax electjon in a district in which there . are large corporate properties; but it is not always easy to do so in thos'e districts in which the resident property owners must bear ,the whole burden. Districts of the latter kind generally prefer a county-wide system; the former, a local, or district system. In most of the counties of the State districts, rich in corporations, are already sufficiently numerous to prevent the adoption by the county of a uniform tax rate. The danger, then, is this. There are very many districts in the State which, though willing to tax themselves, have not enough prop-
8

erty values to raise by taxation sufficient funds to de-

cently maintain their schools. Such districts must al-

ways suffer through the selfishness of more fortunate dis-

trictS' in which corporations are made to bear the burden

of education. On the whole, it is an open question wheth-

er the Legislature was wise in making districts partly

autonomous under certain conditions. Very many be-

lieve the county alone should have been made the unit for

the purposes of both taxation and administration. The

only hope which on.e gets from the present status is

that, ultimately, conditions will become S'o unequal and

intolerable as to force an adoption by the Legislature of

some system of local taxation that will include the en-

tire county.

In the report issued two years ago, I called attention

to the fact that the available fund for common school pur-

poses was $3,011,768.46. This included both the State

appropriation and $750,577.50 raised by local taxation

and by other means. It is a pleasure to be able to report

now that the available fund for similar purpOS'es last year amounted to $4,229,254.78, a~ increase of $1,217,496.32 in

two years. The item of local tax alone amounted to

$1,261,471.31. The record shows that about one school in

every six is now partly maintained by local tax. But the

amount of local .tax is more than half the State appro-

priation. This being true, it follows that the communities

which are supplementing the State fund at all, are doing

so very liberally and that the number of such communities

is rapidly increasing.

,

The total number of schools reported is 7,788; and the

total number of teachers employed in them is. 12, 231. Of

these teachers, 611 hold permanent licenses; 4,617 have

first grade licenses; 2,870 second grade licenses; and

3,840 third grade licenses. Third grade licenses are held

9

chiefly by negro teachers. This accounts for the fact that about one-fourth of all the teachers of the State appear in that grade. White schools are generally taught by first grade teachers', and the quality is constantly improving, as is shown by the fact that of the 8,412 reported, 2,801,or 'about one in every three, is alleged to have had, at least, one year of training in a normal school. The simple truth is, the quality of the teaching forces of the State is far better than the pay would lead us to believe.
The average salary of white male teachers in the local tax system is $104.32 per month, and of white female teachers is $47.76. The average s'alary of negro teachers is, male, $45.53 and, females, $25.83. In the country schools which do not supplement the State's appropriation, the average salary of a male tea~her per month is $58.34, and of a female teacher is $37.48. In all cases and classes, this is a s'light increase, and is a tendency to be noted with special pleasure as, after all, the question of improving our schools is, in great part, merely a question of providing money enough to induce capable men and women to take charge of them. Competent teachers are easily procurable when the s'alary per month is attractive. and the length"of term adequate.
In this statement about salaries is found the strongest of all possible arguments for local taxation. The eyes of all thinking people are turned as never before upon the country in their desire to improve the conditions and raise the standard of rural life. "As good schools for the country as for the town" is a well nigh universal aspiration. And the ideal is 'attainable. There are sections of the Union in which this is' already true. That it is not true in Georgia is easily explained when it is known that the salary of a male teacher, white or colored, is little more than half as much as that enjoyed by 'a male
/
10

teacher in the city schools and that the salary of a female teacher is about three-fourths as much as in town. This discrimination in S'alaries, added to the lack of social and cultural advantages, to the lack of physical comforts and attractive surroundings, and to the solitude and monotony of country life, has well nigh driven men from the country schools, leaving a disproportionate number of women in charge of them, and these are generally women who have, for one reason or another, failed to :find employment in city, town or village, but who, filled with dissappointment on account of the failure, are still hoping the time may come, and come soon, when they too may depart. This condition, however, is not the fault, particularly of the towns, though they are not entirely witholl,.t blame for being too thoughtless of their country cousins. In their desire for better educational facilities, they have impatiently drawn a line around themselves, cut aloof from the more slowly moving country systems, and gone deep into their pockets for money with which to build beautiful schoolhouses and to .secure trained and competent teachers. The country districts, barring the aloofness, may do the same thing; and they must do it if there is ever to 'be much improvement along any conceivable line. If education is worth anything at all, it is worth paying for. This fact must be driven deep into the consciousness of our country people.
In the foregoing paragraph, I called attention to the tendency of the towns to withdraw thems'elves, by legislative charters, from the county system. Every session of the Legislature is called upon to grant more or less of such charters, and. the grants are made as a matter of course and of courtesy to the local member asking for them. There are now 70 of such chartered townS' drawing their public school money through this Department. About
11

80 others receive their funds from the county school commISSIOners. The last Legislature alone granted at least ten, and each succeeding session will be called updn to charter an increasing number. The result is a process of disintegration, disorganization and disunion that is fatal to anything like a uniform system. The Constitution requires that there should bea thorough system of public schools as nearly uniform as possible. The Constitution has never been obeyed in this particular a single day. On the contrary, our schools are as nearly lacking in uniformity as it is possible to make them, and we seem to take pains to keep as near the limit of such possibilities as we can. We have not one ,system but hundreds of systems. All our general school laws have so many exceptions as practically to make them feeble and inert where they touch the larger and stronger communities. Atlanta, for instance, or Macon or Savannah, in all school affairs, is' 'as independent of the supervision, direction and control of the Btate Department of Education as is Timbuctoo. Millions of dollars are disbursed annually through this department and, at times, its agency is not even recognized by so much as the courtesy of a receipt or reply. It is not; however, either the dignity or power or influence of this Department that I am contending for, but the welfare of the children who must be educated. With all this systematic lack of system, with -all this lack of organization, with all this individualism and independence, this lack of supervisory power, the interests of the children are often overlooked; and progress and development are only possible when, for a few months or years, some strong man arises here and there, to promote them, and both ceases when his. efforts are withdrawn.
In simple truth, the whole tendency is wrong. The Constitution is right in its demand of uniformity. Its,
12

prOVISIOns ought to be realized. There may be cases, perhaps, which would justify some towns in withdrawing from their county systems, but there cannot be many. In fact, as I see it, there are none at alL Bibb, Chatham, .Richmond, and Glynn are among the very best of our county systems. They likewise contain some of our best city schools. We have no better s'chools than those of Macon, Augusta, Savanna~, and Brunswick. These cities are a part, and only a part, of the county system, but town and country alike, are completely satisfied; and this is as it should be.
It is true that at times the cities experience advantages by~ cutting themselves aloof. But these advantages are temporary, and in the long run, they must prove positively hurtful. The city lives upon the country. It is the city's garden. The city feeds upon the country's produce. It also draws constantly the best blood and brain from the country. If, then, the country is allowed to grow . poorer and poorer, must the, city not ultimately suffed Will not countrymen of the better class move away 7 Will nO,t the less capable class remain behind and, obedient to the laws of all evolution, propagate a deteriorating class of citizenry7 But the population of cities themselves must be constantly replenished from the country as from a reservoir. Ag the reserve supply deteriorates in quality, how shall it fare with the towns and cities 7 Any man of wide vision must clearly perceive that, first and last and all the time, the interests of cityman and countryman, of urban child and rural child, are one and the same-':'absolutely identicaL There should then be no aloofness, no separation in educational opportunities or facilities. The s'chool machinery should be as much alike as possible and both classes should contribute, as they are able, to keep that machinery in perfect condition, the
13

more prosperous class not complaining that it has the greater burden to carry, but thanking God rather that it has been chosen by fortune to carry it.
To this end, I suggest that the educational committees of the General Assembly inspect more rigidly all requests of municipalities for charter privileges to operate local school systems and that when it is deemed wise to grant these prwileges, they be made absolutely uniform.
As' things are now, all charters are practically different. Each seeks a peculiar advantage and that advantage is at the expense of the country child; or, else, each seeks some additional freedom from laws and regulations, which are already too nerveless and supine. It is all pretense that these privileges are sought for the benefit of the country child. It is not so. In proof of this, I quote the language of a charter granted recently: '~Be it further enacted, That the State School Commissioner of Georgia shall pay directly to the city treasury the city's pro rata share of the State and county public or common school funds to which said eity may be entitled, according to the number of children of school age residing within said city, increased by the number of children residing without the limits' of said city, but in said county, who attend the city's public school system, as provided by Section 1,406 of Volume I, of the Code of Georgia, 1895, together with such other allowances as may be due and payable to said city's- public school system, and the children attending the same under existing laws, or laws that rimy be hereafter enacted."
"Be it further enacted, That the mayor and aldermen of the said city shall cause a school census to be taken once each year, same to include the children of school age living within the limits of said city, together with children
14

of school age who reside without the limits of said city, but in said county, and in reach of the said city's public school system, and those who have 'been and are attending the said city's schools'. The said census so taken shall be forwarded to the State School Commissioner not later than the first day of August each year, and the same shall form the basis of settlement with the State School Commissioner and the said city."
The last paragraph above' quoted would hardly stand the inspection of the courts' but it will stand as mamiatory law until annulled by some competent authority. Pardon me for saying that it practically amounts to pillage of the children of that county under the cloak of legislative sanction. Note particularly the following:
First, one of the real reasons why towns desire to draw money through the State Department of Education rather than through the County School Commissioner is that they may escape thier proportionate part of the expenses of the county administration. But they leap from the frying pan into the fire. Two units of administration are thus created; and of them, the urban administration is vastly the more expensive. Then, too, the separation breaks the bond of mutual interest and sympathy, destroys the spirit of mutual dependence and helpfulness, and makes the combined burdens more grievous and heavy.
Secondly, this particular town s'eeks to take each year a census which shall be the basis of settlement between it and this department. Why The county can take a census only once in five years. During the intervening years, appropriations will be made on the basis of the last census. But the town population will, doubtless, increase every year. This will not help to swell the appropriation for the county but it will enable the town
15

to take yearly an increasing part of the countY'8 school ~ fund.
Thirdly, not content with getting an unusual share of the funds of its own county through an annual recount, this town seeks to have its local census include all children who are both residents within its own limits and residents within the contiguous country and in reach of the schools. But the good. mayor and aldermen are the sole judges of what children are within "reach" of the schools. "Reaches" of this nature are veryvarient things, and mig~t, under some circumstances, be made to touch the county's every limit and rifle the treasury of school funds. In the meantime it is, I think, a pertinent inquiry as to what becomes of the authority of the County School Commissioner1 What becomes of the country schools 1 Of the country children 1 Does this town propose to be responsible for the education of the entire county1 It would seem to entertain this magnanimous thought, judging by the unaffected assurance with which it plans to appropriate the ~ion's share of the school fund.
Fourthly, still not content, this town would have the census include, not only the children who live within the town and without the town in the immediate vicinity but all other children who have attended or who are attending said school. Not a child 'shall escape. Not a penny that -can be reached but shall be raked within its treasury. Every dollar which, by any possible device or expedient can be s'ecured, they are attempting to appropriate without any regard whatever for the rights of the country schools. This, gentlemen, and such as this, is only one of the many evils which spring from the habit of -giving
legislative approval to every 'sort of charter which may
be asked for merely as a courtesy. I repeat, then, with
16

all possible emphasis, that charters' of this kind ought to be uniform and none ought to be granted save for exceptionally strong reasons. This course, consistently pur- . sued, will force towns and cities out of the attit~de which some of them occasionally assume, of indifference and even rapacity, as' in the case cited, toward rural education, and cause them to become, as they ought to be, the most effective stimulants to it. As things now are, around almost every small town operating its 0'Yn schools independently of the County Board of Education, there is a 'belt two or three miles wide, in which the County Board of Education finds it extremely difficult to maintain schools or to provide suitable facilities. Each additional charter creates a like dark belt, and the funds which ought to provide education for the children in that area generally find their way without adequate returns into the treasury of the contiguous town.
On August 16, 1909, the bill to "provide for the election of the County School Commissioners of the various counties of the State by the electors of said counties, and for other purposes" was approved. Putting aside for the moment all consideration of the fundamental principles involved in this bill, I feel it my duty to call your attention to its' several defects and to ask that, if it is to remain as law, it be properly amended.
One of the provisions of the bill is that before a person shall be elected to the office of County School Commissioner, he shall take an examination on questions provided by this department and shall make 85 per cent. or more on the same. Apparently, it was overlooked that several persons might qualify under this test and that if they belonged to the same political party, it would become necessary for them to submit their claims for office to a party primary, as no mention of a primary was made.
17

Now, considerable doubt has arisen as to whether applicants for the office should enter State or county primary. ' Inasmuch as' the office is a State, or public, office
and not ? county office, the confusion should not exist.
But its character is not generally understood, and this department has no auth!>rity to interpret election laws nor to give directions to the executive committees of any party. The result is that, in a great number of cRses, the county execut.ive committees have ordered applicants for the commissionerships to run in the county primaries.
The sense of the law is that there should be one ex-, amination for applicants throughout the entire State. It would be thoroughly impracticable, not to say impossible, for the department to prepare an examination for each county. If this were required, the entire force of this office would be employed, assuming that this examination occurred on different days, full five months in preparing examination questions to the exclusion of every other function whatever. Hence, I have named the 30th day of June for the examination. But very many county primaries' have been held and candidates have been . named. This means that either County Boards of Education must ignore the law, which requires an average of 85 per cent., in the event the candidates who have been successful in the primaries fail in the examination or, else, that there must be a second and needless primary. It will take a good deal of nerve on the part of Boards of Education to refuse to confirm the man, whatever may be his lack of scholarship, whom the people throughout the county have named for office. Yet, if the Boards refuse to do this, the law is emasculated; its only redeeming feature is vain; and the office which ought not to be besmirched in personal and partisan politics, has no safeguard and has become completely a political job.
18

It is to be presumed, too, since an examination is required in which an average of 85 per cent. must be made, that a uniform standard of competency and scholarship was sought. If so, the machinery for securing' it is absurdly imperfect and ineffective. No two men, reading the papers summitted in an examination and acting independently of each other, will agree in their grading. One hundred forty-two Boards will have one hundred forty-two standards. The qualifications of commissioners will be even more diverse than they are now. To prevent this, the examination papers. ought to be graded by the person who prepared the questions. But, if this were required by law, pecessity would compel the addition of other assistants to the force of this Department, at least, during the period of the examinations', for we could not possibly undertake this increase of work now.
Again, since the passage of the bill, the commissioners of Colquitt, Baker, Terrell, Morgan, and Fulton have resigned. In e~ch case, the remainder of their terms of office amounted to more than one year. Under the law, their successors had to be elected by the people. In fairness to all parties' concerned, the election could hardly occur within less than sixty days of the vacancy. During the pendency of this election, the Board of Education has no authority to arrange for the receiving of money, the paying out of the same, or the auditing. of accounts. Only a County School Commissioner may do these things. There was in each of these counties, therefore, as there must be in any other county in which the commis'Sioner dies, resigns or is removed an interregnum of two or three months which amounts to a total disorganization and demoralization of the county school system for the time being; and, although there may be plenty of money
19

in the Board's treasury, neither teachers nor other creditors of the Board can be paid.
Another feature of the law which ought to receive at.tention is its failure to recognize the existence, in many of our counties, of local systems, which are independent of the County Board of Education, and to eliminate them as participants in the election of the commissioners. For instance, here in Fulton county are two systems of schools which are as completely independent of each other in . every sense as if they were in entirely different parts of the State. They have absolutely no dealings of any kind, financial or otherwiS'e, with each other. One is the public school system of Atlanta, operat~ng under a legislative charter; the other is the public school system of Fulton county, organized under the provisions of the McMichael Bill. According to the law, every citizen in the county who is qualified to vote for the county's representative, may participate in the election of the commissioner. Therefore,. every qualified citizen of Atlanta may vote in an election of the Superintendent of Fulton County's schools. Now, Atlanta's voting populationexceeds that of the remainder of Fulton county, but only that remainder is' under the supervision of the Board of Education of Fulton County. It may very easily happen, then, in some future contest that Atlanta, though having no interest in the issue, may impose upon the outlying portions of the county a commissioner utterly distasteful to the people whose schools he shall administer. This is manifestly unjust and totally a:bhorrent to the spirit of our laws. But it can happen, although the possibility is less, in any county which contains one or more of the hundred fifty special systems.
Another seriously objectionable feature of the law is that, as the terms of office of nearly all the commis'sioners,
20

being of four years' duration, expire in 1912, the men who are chosen in the general election in October will not enter upon the discharge of official duties until the expiration of nearly two years. This is absurd. Some of those elected will, doubtless, find more desirable employment in the meantime. Others will probably die. Four commissioners died last year and five resigned. It was an average year. Therefore, in all human probability, before the successful candidates of the fall's election shall qualify, there will have to be a dozen or more special elections to fill their depleted ranks.
But another consideration forces itself forward at this point. The men thrown out of office this fall will naturally be looking for other employment. They will lose heart and hope. Discredited, numbers of them will doubtless resign. This will force a special election. But if they do not, it is not in human nature to keep one's interest at white heat in discharging the duties of a position from whch one has been ejected under most humiliating circumstances. Hope lost, heart lost, interest lost, the schools of the county in which this has happened must, in some measure, even though supervised by the best of men, suffer for lack of attention during the expiring eighteen months or two years.
-But the real objections to this law are not such as are aimed at its defects. Defects may be healed. The error of the law is fundamentaL The principle of the law is wrong. Weare all of one accord in believing in the ultimate wisdom and good sense of the people. We believe, as a general proposition that they will select the better of two men who offer for office. But this particulal office is executive in character and needs trained men for the performance of its duties. Besides mere native aptitude and ability, professional skill, knowledge and
21

equipment are necessary. It is eflSY to ape the possessor of these and easier to decry them altogether. In either way, the people, not having the means to investigate, may be deceived or misled. They will undoubtedly select a fit man for the place, if they can; but, when none such offers, how can they~ Not being represented by a Board with time to look about and choose a proper person, they are hurried into an election; and, necessarily, their choice 'is not of the person they desire, but of the least objectionable of those who stand for office; Too frequently, I fear, it will resolve itself into a choice of the least of two or more evils.
It is realized that, in passing this bill, the Legislature was aiming at a very patent evil-the evil of electing members of the Boards of Education by Grand Juries. In many counties, no objections can be found to this system, for the Grand Juries have been patriotic and wise and have had in mind only the credit of the county and the welfare of the children. In other counties, selfish ambitions' have been allowed to throw their baleful shadows athwart the judgments of the electing bodies, and men have been chosen for the highly honorable position Olf members of the Board of Education without due consideration. This detracted from the credit and dignity of the Board and subjected all its actions, particularly the choosing of a County School Commissioner, to close scrutiny and captious criticism.
But the remedy is' not to deprive the Board of a very reasonable power and a most unquestionable right. This is illogical and unwise. Persons in authority, if too greatly hampered in action, become timid, hesitant and inefficient. Besides, the evil did not reside in the Board's exercise of this right but in the delegation to Grand Juries of powers which the people ought to have reserved.
22

Boards of Education are not s'ervants of Grand Juries. They are representative of the people and should be directly responsible to them. They ought, therefore, to be elected by the people and held responsible for the selection and control of their executive agents. In the last analysis of his functions, the comrlrissioner is but an executive agent, doing the will of the Board and deriving his authority from its orders. He can do little-nothing legally in fact-without its sanction, expressed or implied. Then he ought to be entirely amenable to its authority. But he never will be so long as his commission comes' from a higher source than the :Soard. On the contrary, he will have constant provocation and encouragement to become disrespectful, contemptuous, refmctory, and defiant; and, although he may not intend to be so, the Board, in its sensitiveness and lack of sympathy, will be always looking for some manifestation of that spirit. . Responsibility, in view of such a relationship, is an unspeakable farce. This statute, then, adds just the touch needed to reduce to complete confusion a system already badly confounded.
To the minds of most thinking teachers, a better plan would be to choose the Board by popular election, to restore to it this right which alone makes it respectable and efficient, to untie its hands and let it seek for trained supervisors whereyer they may be found; and no improvement worth while is possible without them. Our towns and cities act upon this principle and they have good schools. Why should our country children suffer through that narrow provincial spirit which prefers poor schools', supervised by a citizen rather than good schools if they are directed by one not of the vicinage. After all, our sole interest should be to see that
23

all our children are properly educated-by our neighbor,

if we can, but by another if need be.

There is one other idea I would like you to consider

in this connection. - We have too few men in our common

schools. The profession does not- offer men a career.



There is no uplook1md outlook for them. A small salary and a small school are almost all that they may expect.

The high places in their profession are practically closed

to them, being, as they are, open to everybody else.

Preachers make bishops; lawyers become judges, but men

of all professions may seize upon college presidencies,

school superintendencies, and county s'chool commission-

erships. -To lift one's self into any of these positions

from within the profession is very much like attempting

to lift one's self by his own boot straps. r.Dhis is' tremend-

ously-discouraging to all who would engage in educational

work and drives all but a few of our strongest men into

other lines of endeavor. For the sake of the schools,

this should not be. Teachers' positions' should be for

teachers. The commissionership is such a place. No

man who offers for it should be considered unless he can

point to a sucQessful experience of his own in educational

work. If this were a fixed, definite, and unalterable

policy, we would, in some measure, counteract the ten-

dency of men to drift away from the schools and develop

in all of our counties an increasing number of young

men who expect to find honorable and remunerative em-

ployment in the- schoolroom, and promotion later when it

is deserved.

But, after all is said, the manner of electing the

County School Commissioners, while of tremendous im-

portance, is not the all-important thing for your consid-

eration now. If the plan devised for his election were

ideal, some unworthy men would be chosen as some

24

worthy men would be under the worst system. But, assuming that the existing plan is wise and in the nature of a reform, it still is not the reform most needed at this time. Our school laws are imperfect, inadequate, ineffective, and obEolete. They do not really create a system nor give to what passeS' under the name of system sufficient vitality or power. What we do need is a radical revision of them along the broad, sweeping lines indicated by the House Committee on Education at your last session. There is need for an enlarged State Board of Education with an ,educational cast and increased powers. As at present constituted, the Board of Education of the State is practically a lost force. It has five statutory powers only. These are: first, to hold bequests and devises; second, to act as an advisory body to the State School Commissioner when he desires it; third, to sit as an appellate court when a decision of his is' unsatisfactory; fourth, to audit his quarterly accounts; fifth, to adopt school books. The first two functions practically do not exist. The third is the one most frequently performed. It requires about five minutes in each quarter to discharge the fourth, and the fifth recurs at intervals of five years. The Board, therefore, has little more than its' name and the shadow of authority as an excuse fot existing.
Now, this body could be, and ought to be, a real vital force, stimulating, directing, controlling and uplifting all the educational concerns of the State. Powers of an executive nature, now confided to the eourts, could best be discharged, and should be discharged, by the State Board of Education, which ought to be required to see that school laws are enforced. It ought to have powers to punish for neglect of laws or disobedience to them. It ought to have the right to make necessary rules' and regulations in the
25

absence of law, to supervise teachers' and commissioners' examinations, to regulate the certification of each, and to do many other things now left wholly undone to the great detriment of the system.
Then, too, the Department of Education ought to be increased as to the number of those employed in it, and better salaries ought to be paid..Without undervaluing or underestimating any other branch of the government, no thinking pers'op. will make the least among them that branch which disburses two-fifths of the State's entire revenue, and in some fashion or other reaches every heart and hearthstone of the commonwealth through the lives and fortunes of the children. For the sake of those children, for the future weal of the State itself, ,the Department of Education ought to be made one of greater influence, power and dignity.
Then, too, the bill which seeks a constitutional amendmenJ, permitting common school funds to be m~ed in high school grades, ought to pass. It would wipe out a shameful discrimination agatnst our country children, which is as old as the common schools themselves. There never was a valid reason for this dis'crimination, and there now seems to be none at all. This question, however, has been so frequently discussed in previous .reports that it is not necessary to repeat the arguments now. These discussions, are cited, though, in order to make them a part of this report, and in the fear that total silence may be construed as a lack or a loss of interest on the part of this Department in the subject of high schools.
Some minor suggestions of what may well become law, are the changing of the school year so that it shall no longer coincide with the calendar year but begin Sep-' tember first; secondly, the empowering of the County Boards of Education to hypothecate approved, Itemized
2(;

Statements in order to borrow money for the prompt payment of teachers; thirdly, the giving of County Boards of Education the authority to condemn sites for schoolhouses; and, lastly, the regulation of school attendance by some such bill illS that now pending. Bills embodying all these suggestions have been before you, or are so now, and all ought, in some wise form, to be passed. If this is done, we shall have made a beginning, and a fine one, of the development of such a system of schools as our children ought to have..
In conclusion, permit me to say that on May 17th, I tendered my resignation as State School Commissioner. It will become effective July 1st. My reasons for this step are entirely personal. I exceedingly regret that my private affairs compel me to surrender a work in which I am interested, but with no ordinary, mercenary, or official interest; and it is because of this interest that I have ventured to embody in this report the suggestions and recommendations I have made. In all earnestness and sincerity, I believe them wise, and hope to see them become law. We need a simpler, stronger, better code of school laws. The teachers of the State say so. The school officials of the State say so. The people say so. And even the General Assembly in 1903, seven years ago, in a formal resolution, said so. When all are agreed, why do we hesitate1 Our children, even the worst of them, des~rve better treatment and fairer consideration than that. They are good enough for the best we can give them. Let us at least give them educational facilities that are worthy of them.
Respectfully submitted,
JERE M. POUND.

CIRCULAR LET.TERS OF THE STATE SCHOOL COMMISSIONER.
June 4th, 1909.
To the County School Commissioner:
The examination of applicants for teacher's license will occur, as I have already notified you, on the 18th and 19th of this month. We shall arrange to have the questions sent out from this office not later than noon of Tuesday, June 15th. If these questions have not reached you by noon of the 16th inst., you had best communicate at once with this Department so as to be sure that questions will reach you in time. The questions will be sent by express to the office nearest you, or to which you have asked that matter of this kind be sent, unless, in the meantime, you give other directions. Please be on the lookout for them, and when they CGme to hand, examine them carefully to see that there has been no tampering with the seals. If they arrive in good condition, put them away ,carefully and open them according to directionsonly on the morning of the first day of the examination and in the presence of the applicants.
I beg leave to call your attention to the Convention of the Georgia Educational Association, which will meet on Cuniberland Island on June 23d-25th. A full program has been made up and published, and many subjects of interest to your teachers will be discussed. Please call the attention of your teachers to this meeting and urge them, where you think it wise, to attend.
28

I also wish to call your attention especially to the meeting of the County School Commissioners at Tallulah Falls on the last two days of June and the first day of July. You have, doubtless, already received copies of the program. I have tried to make it such a program as would be, not only interesting, but profitable to you. Besides, the place chosen for this session is one of the most remarkable and attractive in all the South. Everything connected with this Convention ought to make it one for you to attend, and I therefore urge each Commissioner to be present and to bring with him as many of his Board Members as he can possibly induce to come. It will not be amiss either, to invite all friends of education to come with you.
I regret to inform you that it is very doubtful whether or not we shall get any more money for the schools until the late fall. The full payment of the pensioners on the first of February took from the Treasury more than $900,000, leaving barely more than 20 per cent. of the appropriation for 1909 available for the schools until the end of the year.
We have just completed the consolidation of the reports from the various counties and school systems of the State, and I wish to congratulate you on the fact that substantial improvement has apparently been made along all lines and that the year 1908 was one of the best, if not the very best, in the history of the schools. I trust this may stimulate you to put forth unusual efforts to make the current year even .better still.
With best wishes, I am,
Very truly yours, JERE M. POUND,
State School Commissioner.

September 1, 1909.
To the County School Commissioner: .
I am sending herewith a copy of the law recently passed by the General Assembly and approved by the Governor, which provides for the election of Oounty School Commissioners by the people. Naturally you will all be much interested in this law, and will no.t care to wait for a copy of the same until it is printed in the Acts of the Legislature.
No other law affecting the schools, I believe, has passed' except one making obligatory the observance of the twelfth of February as Georgia Day in the schools. Before that day, in obedience to the law, I will prepare
and send out to the Commissioners programs to be used
in its celebration. Mr. Fred J. Orr, who has charge of the Manual Train-
ing in the State Normal School at Athens, has authorized me to offer to the County School Commissioners and to the local Boards of Trustees his services, free of charge except necessary traveling expenses, in planning new school buildings which the school officials may desire to erect. If he can spare the time to do so, Mr. Orr will go to any county or town, view the lot on which it is desired to erect the building, and make suggestions, (if not actually draw the plans) as to the character of the building to be put thereon. Mr., Orr does this with the sole purpose of improving the convenience, comfort and appearance of our school buildings throughout the State. If school officials will use him in this way, I am quite sure it will mean, ultimately, better school houses all over the State. We all owe Mr. Orr a debt of thanks for this generous proposal.
30

The schools, in very many of the counties, are beginning to open up for the fall session. Let us go into the new scholastic year with the determination to improve, at every point possible, the schools of the several counties and to make this, by all odds, the best year in our history. I stand ready to lend any assistance that may be in my power to this end.
Very truly yours, JERE M. POUND,
State School Commissioner.
September 23d, 1909.
To the County and City Superintendents:
T'he Governor has made arrangements to borrow $IOO,OQO for the schools. This sum will be available on Monday, the 27th inst. This amount will enable me to make a five per cent. payment on all accounts'. You may, therefore, look for a check some time during the next week, or as soon thereafter as the warrant can possibly be approved and the checks written up and mailed.
The following counties: Crisp, Grady, Hart, Jeff Davis, Jenkins, Stephens, Tif~, Toombs, and Turner, by reason of the fact that either there already exists a vacancy in the Commissionership or that the term of the present incumbent will expire about the beginning of the new year,will hold their examinations on October 1st. The election will occur as nearly three months from date of examination as circumstances will warrant. Please . let all Commissioners who are affected by this new law notify the Ordinary of their respective counties that he must call the election.
31

The election will be held and determined just as other elections for county officers or members of the Legislature.
There seems to be some doubt in the minds of certain Commissioners as to whether or not citizens living within the confines of special school systems, over which the Commissioner has no supervision, have a right to vote in the election. This doubt is not well founded" The law definitely provides that all electors in a county, who are qualified to vote for members of the General Assembly, may participate in the election of County School Commissioner.
All counties except Baldwin, Crisp, Grady, Hart, Jeff Davis, Jenkins, Stephens, Tift, Toombs, and Turner, will hold their examinatjons three months prior to the general election next year, although the person elected in the said general election will not assume the duties of the office until the epiration of the term of the present incumbent.
Very truly yours, JERE M. POUND,
State School Commissioner.
November 3, 1909.
To the County School Commissioner:
It has been decided, in accordance with what seems to be the wishes of the majority of the County School Commissioners, not to hold this year a winter examination for teachers. If, therefore, any of you should be in need of teachers, he may rely upon the right given him in the law to secure them by an emergency examination.
32

This examination will, of course, entitle those who have passed it successfully to a license which will expire at the next State examination, but will serve all purposes until that time.
Mr. Fred. J. Orr, of the State Normal School at Athens, a short while ago, through me, tendered you his services in any effort you might make to improve the character, comfort and convenience of the schools of your county. His proposition, as you will remember, was to go to any site at which it was contemplated to erect a school building, view the lot and make suggestions, if not actually draw the plans for the building. I hope all of you who contemplate building, will avail yourselves of Mr. Orr's kindly offer. He now puts us under further obligations to him by offering to go to any county, for his expenses only, and give stereopticon lectures on school buildings and surroundings. It seems to me that for you to have lectures of this kind at the strategic points in your several counties, would be very educative. I suggest, therefore, that you call upon Mr. Orr very freely.
The recent law by which the manner of electing County School Commissioners was changed, made no specific provision for declaring the election. The Attorney-General holds that the proper person to do this, under the circumstances, is the Secretary of State. Whenever, therefore, an election occurs in a county to fill this office, please have the returns sent directly to the Secretary of State.
Quite a number of Commissioners have held Corn and Cotton Growing Contests and County School Fairs in their counties this year. It would be well if this movement were more general. Let us make it universal in Georgia. In this way we may gradually learn how to correlate ouf school activities with the life of the com-
33

munities the schools serve, and, in the meanwhile, to interest the people in education and make them more generous in supplying educational needs. A complete organization of our school forces along these lines will greatly interest fathers and mothers, bring them into a more vital touch with the schools, and have, ultimately, a highly uplifting reflex influence upon the community life itself. Let us put more thought and enthusiasm into our school work the coming year and to this end, let us lay our plans at once. It is none too early.
I should like to talk to your teachers in their insti.tutes about these and other things, and will gladly come to your county with this purpose in view when I can. Therefore, command me whenever I can be of service to you.
Very truly yours, JERE M. POUND,
State School Commissioner.
November 24th,1909.
To the County School Commissioner:
Weare now preparing a requisition on the Governor for a ten per cent. payment which I hope he will be able to approve in a week or ten days. At present there does not seem to be in the Treasury money enough to meet that requisition, but there will be, I hope, by the time all formalities in making a requisition can be complied with. In the meantime if you have not already filed with us itemized statements covering at least that amount you had best do so at once.
34

I have long been under the impress:i:on that Georgia stands too low in the statistical columns with respect to the amount of money our people are spending on education. Heretofore we have accurately reported practically only what the Legislature appropriated and have been more remiss in reporting what is raised by the people themselves, either as local tax or as contributions of one kind or another, than the other States of the Union. I desire greatly to lift our State from its lowly position in the column and place it where it belongs. I am, therefore, preparing a new system of blanks for our annual report which is due this office on Jan. 1st, and which I trust you will send in not later than Feb. 1st. These blanks will be sent you shortly and I am hoping that each Commissioner will regard it as a matter of pride and patriotism to see that each space is filled in properly and each item fully and truly reported. It may require some little care to do this accurately, but I am trying to distribute the burden and to put the responsibility for a large part of your report upon the principals of schools, where it rightfully belongs. While more is required of you perhaps than heretofore, you will be given better facilities for acquiring the information desired. Let us make this year a report which will fitly show what has been done and what is being done for the education of our children. Enough blanks will be sent you to make your report in duplicate. Please keep one copy for your office files and forward the other to us.
In this connection permit me to call your attention to the special reports which have been rendered from time to time by Commissioners of the State for publication in the annual reports of the Department. You will find these between pages 86 and 253 inclusive, of the report of 1908. Keep in mind, if you please, the fact that these will
35

be called for later, so that you may make as crisp and bright and accurate a report of what you are doing and . what you hope to do as possible. These will be needed by the first of April at least.
Mr. Thos. A. Early, formerly County Superintendent of Yalabusha County, Miss., has accepted a position under Dr. 'Knapp, of the United States Department of Agriculture, and has been assigned for service to the State College of Agriculture at Athens, for the purpose of working with the boys of this State in the development of Corn Clubs. Mr. Early will be at the command of any County School Commissioner who may desire his services in that way at any time that dates may be made. I beg to say that Mr. Early comes to us with the very best endorsements of the State Superintendent of Education of Mississippi as a successful County Superintendent of schools and a man who brings things to pass. I hope you will employ Mr. Early very freely and he is hoping the same thing. Aside from their educational importance, these Corn Clubs have proven elsewhere, of immense benefit in awakening the interest of parents in the education of their boys and in the development of rural social conditions. Mr. Early's address is, Athens, Ga.
I have received a letter from Dr. Wickliffe Rose~ Agent of the Peabody Education Fund,containing the ,following:
"That to the State School Commissioner of Georgia. be granted $2,700 to be used in paying the salary and traveling expenses of a Supervisor of Elementary Rural Schools to be appointed in the State, this grant to be allowed on the condition that the Supervisor of Elementary Rural Schools be selected by the State School Commissioner and the General Agent of the Peabody Education Fund."
36

I hope to announce before a great while the name of the gentleman who has been selected for this work. He likewise, it is proposed, shall be at the complete disposal of the County School Commissioners of the State, particularly in the matter of institute work and the development of the course of study.
We have on hand in this office at least 1,000 old magazines for distribution among such schools as may desire them enough to pay transportation on same. These will be shipped promptly to the first claimants of them. All of these magazines are of the better sort. They are collected by Mr. ~m. Riley Boyd of this city who is himself so greatly interested in this work that he would not impose on the schools anything but the best literature. They are well worth thrice what they will cost the schools.
The appropriation for 1910 is the same as for the present year. The per capita will remain the same but of course there will be a number of adjustments to be made in some counties, owing to .the creation of special systems of schools therein. If there are no such systems in your county, the appropriation for 1910 will remain the same as in 1909. During 1911 we shall have the greatest appropriation ever made to our common schools.
Congratulating you on what I believe to have'been the best year in the history of the public schools of the State, let me urge you to lay your plans wisely and well to make the year 1910 a still better one. To that end I pledge you whatever service I may render.
Very truly yours, JERE M. POUND,
State- School Commissioner.
37

December 11th, 1909.
To the County School Commissioner:
DEAR SIR:-Weare sending you this week the Principals' Annual Report blanks for white and colored schools. These should go out to them at once and before you have made final settlement, with instruction to have them filled and returned not later than January 1st.
In accordance with our request to get very- fullstatistics into your report this year, we have sent you blanks enough for each school in your county, whether under your supervision or not. In other words, you are expected to send these blanks to each school in your county, whether public, private or denominational, except such as draw their pay direct from this Department. Of course, your letter to the schools not under your supervision, should be tactful and courteous, urging them to report on patriotic grounds, but getting the information, if possible, the same as for the common schools. These reports should also be incorporated into your report and the tabulation sheet we will send you later isdesigned to receive this information also.
Requi~ition has been made and approved by the Governor for a ten per cent. payment to all schools having claims against the State. It is probable the checks will reach you by the time you receive this letter. If not, certainly in a short time thereafter.
Very truly yours, JERE M. POUND,
State School Commissioner.
38

January 24, 1910.
To the Connty School Commissioner:
On August 13, 1909, an Act passed by the recent Leglature, made it the duty of the State School Commissioner to provide a program for Georgia Day, which is February 12th, and it likewise provided that the State School Commissioner, through the County School Commissioners, annually," shall cause the teachers of the schools under their supervision, to conduct on that day exercises in which the pupils shall take part, consisting of written compositions, readings, recitations; addresses, or other exercises, relating to this State and its history and to the lives of distinguished Georgians." The Act is mandatory and leaves nothing to the discretion of the County Commissioner or even to his Board of Education, but it requires that all schools alike, which are in session on that day, shall observe the day with appropriate exercises.
It so happens this year that February 12th falls on Saturday. If it had fallen on Sunday, the law would have required the observance of the following Monday, but there is no provision for the day to be observed when Georgia Day falls on Saturday. I am, therefore, appointing Friday, February 11th, to be observed as Georgia Day this year; and I hope that each Commissioner will see that the schools under his supervision shall observe the spirit of this law by conducting appropriate exercises.
By the first of February, I shall send to each County School Commissioner a supply of programs, which are now being printed for that occasion. The pamphlet will be large and will contain a great deal of interesting
39

matter and a 'great many suggestions for the observance of the day. Of course, each teacher will be expected to select from the same just what suits her needs, and none will be expected, necessarily, to use, at anyone time, the whole pamphlet.
As you will see, I have had printed in full the music of the song, "The Red Old Hills of Georgia," and I trust that this song may be a part of the exercises which may be held in every school in the State. We can easily afford to make this beautiful song the State song, and teach every pupil in Georgia to sing it. If it shall occur to anyone that the song itself is rather local on account of the use of "Oconee" so frequently, it can be made applicable to almost any section of the State by substituting the Indian name of the most conspicuous stream in that community, for almost everyone in the State would lend itself to the rythm equally as well as Oconee. I mention this merely to 'meet a possible objection. Personally, I think we had best take no liberty with the words of Gen. Jackson's beautiful poem, and sing it just as it is.
The Act s,etting apart Georgia Day does not necessarily mean that the schools are to be dismissed on that day after these exercises are completed. Wh,ether they shall be dismissed or not and the day observed as a holiday, is a matter which rests entirely in the discretion of the school authorities, but whether the day is so obs.ervedor not, at least the regular programs of the schools are to be set aside for an hour or so and these patriotic exercises held in their stead.
The program which I shall send you has been gotten up by Miss Mildred Rutherford, of Athens, Ga., historian of the United Daughters of the Confederacy. Miss Rutherford 'sbroad culture >and special knowledge of the
40

history of the State eminently fit her for the authorship of such a program, and her work, I think,will speak for itself.
Very truly yours, JERE M. POUND,
State' School Comn~issioner.
February 17, 1910.
To the County School Commissioner:
The annual examination of Common School Teachers will be held on the 17th and 18th of June this year. There will be no change in the books prescribed for reading. The two used last year were Dinsmore's Teaching a District School and Dutton's School Management. The Teacher's Manual and School Law will, as usual, have questions based upon them. Later, I will give in succinct form the regulations to govern this examination.
An Act, approved August 13th, 1909, providing for the election of County School Commissioners, requires the successors of all Commissioners whose terms will expire prior to the third Wednesday in October, 1912, to be elected at the general election in October this year. The Act, also, provides that at least ninety days before that election, all candidates for the position shall take an examination prescribed by this Department and only those making eighty-five percent. or more in the same' shall offer themselves for this office. I, therefore, name Thursday, June 30th, as the date of this examination. Please see that due notice is given in your several counties. Questions will be prepared and sent at the proper time to Boards of Education, who will provide for
41

the holding of the examinations and the grading of all papers. The subjects covered in this examination will be the same as those for the teachers' examination.
The Department is issuing a new requisition blank. Please send for supplies of same as it contains items not on the old sheet and will enable you to call for such blanks as you may desire, with little trouble.
Let me remind those of you who have not sent in your Annual Reports that they are now due and ought, under no circumstances, to be delayed beyond March 1st. Also, please give me at an early date the annual write-up of conditions as they exist in your counties, for publication in the Report of this Department.
Supt. Otis Ashmore, of Savannah, President of the Georgia Educational Association, announces that the next annual meeting of the Association will be held here in Atlanta on April 28th, 29th and 30th, and he requests the hearty co-operation of all school officials in making this meeting a great success. I suggest that you make it as easy as possible for all your teachers to attend, and that you urge all to come who can do so.
The Department of Superintendence meets this year at Indianapolis on March 1st, 2d, 3d and 4th. A party is making up to leave Atlanta on the morning of February 28th. I shall be glad to have any Commissioner who contemplates going to join this party.
Very truly yours, JERE M. POUND}
State School Commissioner.

March 11, 1910.
To the County School Commissioner:
The Governor has authorized me to make requisition for a ten per cent. payment to be charged to the account of 1910. Those of you who have Itemized Statements in hand, ,calling for all or any part of this amount, will receive checks for the same within a few days, probably the latter part of this week, or, at least, as soon as the requisition can be made up and the checks written and mailed.
I beg to inform you that supplies of the Principal's Annual Report are on hand and subject to your orders. By placing the,se reports in the hands of your principals .before the close of school and requiring the blanks to be filled out in full before final settlement with them is made, you will obviate, this year, the difficulty you have had in getting material for your final Annual Report. A numher of comities have not yet sent in their Annual Reports for the year 1909. Weare now tabulating the same in preparation of my Annual Report to the Legislature.. I beg, therefore, that all who are due this Department this report will send in the same just as soon as you possibly can. Otherwise, I am afraid the Department Report will be too greatly delayed.
Some time ago, I announced the appointment, through the kindness of the Peabody Board, of a Supervisor of Rural Schools. Prof. R. H. Powell, former editor of School and Home, is the person selected for this work. He is now on duty, and is anxious to be of service to any Commissioner anywhere in the State at any time and in any way he can serve. Please remember that Mr. Powell has no authority, and will exercise none, over the schools
43

within your jurisdiction, except such as you niay give him. ~e is to work with you-not over you, and to work by visitation and advice and by concentrating, as far as he can, all the forces that are working for a social and educational uplift, upon the problems of your county. While Mr. Powell will go over the entire State in the performance of his duties, still I desire two or three typical counties for special campaign work, and should be glad to hear from any Commissioner who would like this concentrated help from Mr. Powell. Of course, not all counties that may desire this special help can be selected but we will select the two or three that seem best to lend themselves to this purpose.
Many of the Commissioners do not care to use the Seventh Grade Examination Questions in their counties. I have no disposition to make a general requirement with respect to this examination, but the questions are ready for distribution and such of you as desire to use them, may get supplies of the same on request. I dq not know that these examinations will have value if held every year in a county, but do think that they would serve a good purpose in keeping the schools of the various counties somewhat in line with each other if applied occasionally' in all of the counties. . You will receive within a few days two documents to which I wish to direct your special attention. One is a pictorial circular prepared by the State Board of Health, treating of the common house fly as a menace to health. ~arge supplies of these have been sent you by express at my request. Please distribute them among your teachers and schools, and request your teachers to use them in connection' with their lesson's on Hygiene.
The other is a letter from the Census Bureau. The national census will be taken this year and every thinking
44

man must appreciate the necessity of making it as comprehensive and accurate as possible. Please read this letter. and be prepared to help the census takers get full and accurate information in your several counties. It might not be amiss to talk to your schools about the importance of this matter and thus, through the schools, educate your people with regard to it.
I beg to remind you again that the Georgia Educational Association will hold its next annual session in Atlanta on April 28th, 29th, and 30th, ana that especial efforts are being made to insure the largest attendance of teachers in the history of the Association. I hope you will co-operate with the officers of this Association, and urge such teachers as can do so to attend. That teachers are eager to attend the gatherings of their professional associates, is an exceptionally good sign, and promises well for the future of our schools.
The Executive Committee of the County School Commissioners' Convention met in this office a short while ago 'and set the dates for that Convention on May 3rd, 4th, and 5th. The place was determined at' our meeting last year. It is desired that the sessions should be held in . the new IAgricultulral College bu~lding in the city of Athens. We are preparing a rather novel program, which we hope will be both interesting and profitable, and we would especially urge every Commissioner and every member of a Board of Education, who can possibly do so, to be present on this occasion.
Please remember that if either Mr. T. A. Early, Mr. R. H. Powell, Mrs. Walter B. Hill, or T, can be of service to you at any time and by personal visitation to your counties, either of us will be delighted to come if we can arrange dates for the same; but inasmuch as our time is very fully taken up, you had best write to the one
45

of us desired, at least, six weeks or two months ahead of the event at which you desire our presence. With best wishes, I am,
Very truly yours, JERE M. POUND,
State School Commissioner.
April 8, 1910.
To. the County School Commissioner:
I have sent to the Secretary of the County School Commissioners' Convention, Hon. M. L. Duggan, of Hancock County, the completed program for our convention, which will meet in Athens on the 3rd, 4th and 5th of May. Mr Duggan will have the program printed, and in a few days, I doubt not, you will receive copies of the same.
I hope every Commissioner in the State will attend this Convention. The program is one of a somewhat new type. We are not asking the Commissioners, this year, to prepare papers, but, instead, are naming subjects of vital importance to all the schools of the State, and it is expected that they will be discussed in the easy off-hand way which characlterizes round table conferences. In other words, any Commissioner who has anything to say, will be at perfect liberty to discuss any question on the entire list. We hope, therefore, to develop, in the course. of this free discussion, something that is worth while for our schools. Those who have may give to those who have not, and all of us may come away with something we did not possess before. It is believed that this Convention will be intensely interesting, inspirational and
46

valuable to all. Let every Commissioner, therefore, be present, and bring with him as many members of his Board of Education and other friends of education as he possibly can.
The sessions of the Convention will be held in the new building of the College of Agriculture, in which, as I am informed, there is abundant seating capacity to make the Convention entirely comfortable. Besides, the hall is so arranged that we may have stereopticon lectures both day and night, and it is hoped that some of the gentlemen who have parts on the program will avail themselves of this facility for illustrating their addresses.
You will see, when you have received your program, that certain gentlemen, who are experts on the subjects assigned to them, have been asked to address the Convention at each session. None of these is a member of the Association itself, but all are entirely competent to bring to us information which is much needed and which may prove of immense assistance in the administration of the schools.
We have received Annual Reports from nearly all of the Commissioners. If you have not sent in yours, please do so at your earliest convenience.
Th~ Governor has authorized the payment of another ten per cent. It will be well, therefore, if every Commissioner shall put in our hands all Itemized Statements _which he cares to submit prior to this payment.
With best wishes, I am, Very truly yours, JERE M. POUND, State School Commissioner.

April 14, 1910.
To the County School Commissioner:
This Department is nearly ready to assemble the material which is to compos~ the Annual Report to the Legislature. By the first of May, at the outside, we must give to the printers copy for that report. Up to the present, we have had comparatively few responses to the request for written reviews of school conditions in the various counties. I think it very important that each county in the State should have representation in the report, not merely for its own people, but for the benefit of those who live outside of the county and who are seeking information of this kind. I really regard this as more important information than the statistics, which most of you have submitted. Please let me have this review, or, in lieu of it, a copy of your report to the Grand Jury, not later than the first of May, at the very outside.
A few counties still have not furnished the statistical. matter whi-ch was requested by this Department in January, and frequently since. By reference to the law, you will find that you are required to furnish the Department with such statistics as it may ask for. It isa specific duty imposed upon you in the .law. Please forward to us, then, at the very earliest possible moment this information, as statistical matter must be in the hands of the printers within a very few days.
Let me again call your attention to the fact that the Department makes up requisitions regularly on the 10th and 25th of each month. Itemized Statements to be included in these requisitions, must be in hand on, or
48

'LA 1 D ME "rT' 'lEI E, LB. Y lllGll ']i OL,

before, those dates. The intervening time is needed to post up the books of this and of other Departments.
Very truly yours, JERE M. POUND,
State School Commissioner.
April 27, 1910.
To the Cou,nty School Commissioner:
. This is to remind you that our annual Convention will meet in Athens on Tuesday, May 3rd, which is next Tuesday, and will remain in session for three days. The initial session will be held in the new Agricultural building at 10 :00 a. m. on Tuesday. We desire every Commissioner in the State to be present, and would like to see as many members of his Board of Education there as can conveniently attend. These sessions are greatly worth the while of the Commissioners, and they can help themselves in their work by bringing with them one or more members of their Boards, in order that the Boards of Education may themselves be brought in contact with the men who actually do the field work, and thus be made to see the problems of school administrations as they ought to be seen.
Please come and stay throughout the session, as the program promises to be one of the richest and most valuable that we have ever presented.
With best wishes, I am, Very truly yours, JERE M. POUND, State' School Commissioner.

REVIEW OF SCHOOL WORK BY COUNTY SCHOOL COMMISSIONERS.

BALDWIN COUNTY.

N. H. -Bullard, C. S. C.

The following is a report of the Baldwin county schools, outside of Milledgeville, since I took up my work in November last.
The public school term began on October 25th last with thirty-three schools in operation, seventeen white and twenty-six colored. The enrollment at the end of the first month showed an attendance of 463 white and 714 colored children. In January the enrollment stood 499 white and 1,609 colored, showing a slight increase in the attendance of the white schools and a considerable increase in that of the colored. The reports for the last month, April, give a total enrollment of 439 white and 1,399 colored, a decrease since January in the white and the colored attendance of approximately 88 and 87 per cents., respectively. At times when farm work isn't pressing the colored schools are crowded, many of them, almost to overflowing, while at no time is the attendance of the white schools, as a whole, what it should be. As a rule, the negro teachers are poorly qualified to teach, and a poor grade of work is done in their schools, but, judging from the attendance, their pupils are very eager for education. Of the funds paid to the teachers in our county the colored get about 31.7 per cent.
The school at Scottsboro, having been closed during the fall because of not having enough pupils to support it, was reopened in January, the accession of several fam-
65

3-8. C.

ilies to the community making this feasible. It is now the intention of the Board to consolidate this and the Mount Pleasant School and make of them a larger and better one.
I visited each of the schools, the white scho'ols, three times during the term and found many of them weak both in point of .discipline and in method of instruction. We have now but one male teacher in the county, that is, outside of Milledgeville. I am striving now, however, to place male principals at the heads of two of our larger schools, and am endeavoring to secure as many teachers with normal training as possible for all the schools.
In my visits-generally spending from a half to a full day at each white "School-I always take up the work in part, hearing some of the recitations myself, and noting the methods of the teacher in her conduct of the others. Such advice or instruction as in my judgment will improve the efficiency of the school is given, and an appeal is made to the children for promptness and regularity of attendance, proper deportment, and diligent, earnest application to work.
My manner at the schools is such as not to give unnecessary offetlce, but rather, wherever possible, to give help and guidance, and it is indeed gratifying to me to feel that both the teachers and 'the pupils are glad to see me come, and I am glad to be with them, for we are all partners in the same great cause of education.
Respectfully yours, N. H. BULLARD,
C. S. C. Baldwin County.

BANKS COUNTY.

G. G. Strange, C. S. C.

One of the most marked features of the educational progress of our county during the past year has been the building of six new school houses and devising plans which we hope will enable us to complete the work of building new school houses.
In nearly every instance a new house brings new desks, boards, and other equipments. In the construction of these buildings we plan to give the very best possible arrangements for seating, light, ventilation, blackboard room, doak rooms and heating.
Another marked feature of the substantial progress made, is shown in the faet that during the year the people of the county raised approximately two thousand dollars through local tax, tuition fees and otherwise to supplement the public funds. This shows that the people are wanting better schools and mean to haye them.
Still another, and perhaps the most marked feature of our progress is, that a number of the districts have lengthened the school term one, two and three months in addition t,o the five months' public term. This shows unmistakably that the people of the rural districts are coming to the front and are beginning to realize that it is cheaper and better to educate the child at home rather than send him to the town or city school to get the grammar school grades.
Notwithstanding the very disagreeable rainy winter and spring that we had the enrollment and attendance was the largest we have ever had. In proportion to the better facilities that we have in the way of houses and equipments, the better the enrollment and average attendance will be. I am thoroughly convinced that in order to have good schools in the rural districts there

67

must be well defined and regulated district lines and a good centrally located schoo, l house as a basis, and all the other necessary things will come as a consequence. The building of two and three-room houses, well arranged with reference to seating and blackboards, has been very instrumental in helping to grade the work. There seems only one thing lacking in order to grade and systematize the work, and that is, regular attendance. In my opinion the only thing that will bring a regular attendance is a stringent compulsory school law unhampered by a 'hundred little petty amendments.
I am proud to be able to report to you these signs of progress for the schools of Banks county.

BARTOW COUNTY.

Henry Milam, C. S. C.

~n reviewing school conditions for 1909 it gives 'me great pleasure to say that this was the best school year in the history of the county. The Board and the C. S. C. believe that it is largely the function of the C. S. C. to mould public sentiment and create higher ideals, and to this end much visiting has been done. Aside from visiting the schools the C. S. C. has spoken to the patrons of practically every district in the county. Upon returning from the Conference of Georgia Educators, held at the same time as the Southern Educational Conference last
April, f issued invitations to 125 friends of education to
meet at the court house on June 4th to confer as to the best method to pursue in awakening Bartow County from her indifferent attitude toward her schools. A

68

goodly number responded to this call and all agreed to go to work appointing a committee of 25 to push the matter. The committee decided to conduct a whirlwind campaign of information: Funds were raised, facts were ascertained about our schools, appeals made through the newspapers, by circulars, handbills, and by addresses. In this way we were enabled to create a determined desire to have one of the best school systems in Georgia.
Bartow county held her first school fair in November, 1909. Only eight schools entered this contest, but while it was small the children made a splendid showing and aroused sufficient enthusiasm to assure a great fair in 1910. Our idea is a broad one. We include in our exhibits everything that can be grown on the farm, in the poultry yard, in the flower garden, made in the wood shop, the kitchen, the sewing room, also school work. We can hardly estimate the value this little effort had as a means of turning the boys and girls attention to the home.
Though our enrollment and attendance are not what we would like to have, yet we are glad to report that in the last two years we have increased our enrollment 32 per cent. and our attendance 54 per cent. Two things have helped bring this about, the attitude of the Board and C. S. C. as to the value of visits and the good work done by 'our teaching force, for in this time we have raised the standard of our force 50 per cent.
Many of our schools are not supplied with libraries, but the year 1909 showed some progress along this line, doubling the number of libraries and thribling the number of volumes.
Our people are realizing that if they have good schools they must pay for them, consequently they raised for 1909 about 50 per cent. of the State appropriation to
69

lengthen their term or secure better teachers as the case might be. We confidently expect to place Bartow county on the honor roll in 1910.
In many respects we are proud of the record made, yet as we view the work today it seems as if we had not even begun on the great task before us,-that of developing a school system somewhat commensurate with the needs and demands of the boys and girls. But with public sentiment aroused and all forces allied to pull for a definite thing, we confidently expect to be able to chronicle some happenings during the next year.
Respectfully submitted,

BIBB COUNTY.

C. B. Chapman, C. S. C.

It gives me pleasure to report for the public schools of Macon and Bibb county a most satisfactory year. We have been working for more buildings, better buildings, better equipment, more teachers, and greater efficiency throughout the system. This has meant an ever increasing expenditure of money, a demand that has been met in part by an increase for the past two years of $6,00u per annum in Bibb's pro rata from the State. During the past live years the county has been most liberal, raising her appropriation from $50,000 to $80,000'per annum -an increase of 60 per cent.
At a cost of more than $60,000 there have been erected in the city and country during the past few years new school buildings containing fifty-nine rooms, while- the equipment has cost from $1,000 to $1,500 .per annum.

70

While there has been a steady increase in enrollment, it has not kept pace with the increase of teaching force; so there is gradual relief in the cOI)gestion of the grades. In 1903, one hundred and sixty teachers were employed; the number has now reached one hundred and ninety-six.
The current year is marked by the employment of three assistant male teachers in the Boys' Department of the city High Schools. The experiment is proving a success; in fact it seems to me that boys approaching adolescence should come under masculine influence. At the same time it is my conviction that the teaching force in a boy's high school should be divided, so that students may come under the dual influence of the sexes.

For the year 1908-9 I beg to submit the following

statistics:

Enrollment

8,779

Teachers employed

189

Expenditures

$125,288.90

Cost per pupil per month_______

1.175

Value of school property

279,615.00

For the current year the income for the schools may be summarized as follows:

Amount received from the State_$ 50,402.16

Amount received from the County 80,000.00

Amounts received from sundry

other sources

3,500.00

Total

$133,902.16

The statement that the cost per pupil to the State and county is $1.175 is misleading to the casual observer; he divides the total expenditures by the number of pupils enrolled. The accounts for furniture and permanent improvements are left out of the calculation since they

71

are assets. Neither are fuel, school supplies, and janitors' supplies included in. this estimate; these accounts are covered by incidental fees. (50c per pupil), and are not, therefore, a tax upon the appropriation.

BUTTS COUNTY.

C. S. Maddox, C. S. C.

To the Honorable Foremmt and Gentlemen of the Gmnd

Jury of Butts County:

.

In compliance with law, I hereby submit to your honorable body my annual report as County School Commissioner for the year 1909.
I have no disposition to tax your patience nor to burden your General Presentments with anything like a lengthy dissertation of our school problem, but I am exceedingly anxious for you to see it in its true light.
First.-I wish to say that the public schools in any county are just what the people make them; that is, the schools are good or poor in proportion to the amcmnt of interest, zeal, enthusiasm and financial backing the several communities put into them.
Second.-Butts county enjoys the distinction of getting the greatest per cent. of her school population into the schools during the year, and of having the least per centage of illiteracy of any county in the State.
Third.-The teaching force of Butts county, in competency and experience, will comparE? favorably with a majority of the counties in the State.
Fourth.-----The length of our school term and the average salaries paid teachers for the last three years were

equal to or exceeded a great majority of the counties not having a definite system to raise funds to increase the le::lgth of the term and to supplement the funds received from the State.
Fifth.-We all know that competent and experienced professional men and women are on the lookout for a broader field, which means a greater compensation for their services. If a larger field will move lawyers, doctors, preachers, mechanics, civil engineers, clerks, telegraphers, stenographers, typewriters, will it not move a teacher In short, are teachers less human simply because they are engaged in the profession of teaching the young idea how to shoot
Now, in view of the fact that our school fund fell short last year $815 from the fund of 1908, and will fall short this year $1,393 from the fund of 1909, how may we expect to even maintain the reputation we have made, much less make progress, unless we take in the situation and devise some plan that will keep us in the front rank
STATISTICAL REPORT.
The length of the school term paid for by the State was six months, or 120 days, but 12 of the white schools were kept in operation seven to nine months. There were 42 schools opened during the year, 21 each for white and colored. One of these white schools had nine teachres, two had three teachers, and six had two teachers. One colored school had three teachers and three had two teachers. The remaining schools had only one teacher each. Below the eighth grade there were 1,767 white children enrolled; above the seventh grade there were 94 enrolled, making a total of 1,859 white children enrolled. Of the colored there were 1,816 children enrolled, all below the eighth grade. The average attendance of
73

the white children was 1,138, a gain of 3 per cent. over last year~ The average attendance of the colored was 748, a gain of something over 10 per cent.
C. S. MADDOX, C. S. C. Butts County.

CAMDEN COUNTY.

J. O. Mangham, C. S. C.

Mr. Foreman and Gentlemen: I thank you for the privilege of coming before you that I may tell you something of the public schools of your county.
You are representative men from all parts of the county. While you are looking after the interest of the county in so many ways I should be glad to interest you in caring for your schools. There is a carelessness or indifference about the education of the children of which we ought to be ashamed, and you are in position to stir up life in careless ones.
For sE;lveral years past the interest in educating the children has increas~d, which is evidenced by an increase ill the number enrolled in the schools. There were more white children in school in Camden county during the year 1909 than ever before. The percentage of those who were not in school at all is very small, still of those who were enrolled the average attendance was much b~low what it should have been. Parents are responsible for more attendance of pupils, and if they could realize what a day out of school means to a pupil they would be more anxious to have the children in every day. One
of thegretJ,t needs is for parents and guardians to awak~
to their duties which they owe to tbe chilgrell.
74

With but little effor. t every child in the county can attend school five months in the year, and if parents will do their duty there will not be one child in the county during 1910 that will not avail itself of common school privileges. The motto of the Board of Education is "A school for every child and every child in schooL"
True the teachers may not all be quite so efficient as they should be, but most of them are earnest and faithful, and we are trying all the time to increase their usefulness. You gentlemen may do much toward getting the citizens to do their duty.
We need your advice in selecting places for permanent school sites, we need your help in many ways. Please try to help us. We have too many schools. Help us to lessen 'the number and put no child to serious inconvemence.
The committee which you have appointed to examine any books is composed of sensible business men who will make report of the amounts of money received and paid out during the year. I want to add to what that report will be that in 1906 we were able to meet promptly the claims for only one third the year, two-thirds of the claims were laid over till next fall or winter. By economy and business sense the Board of Education has adopted plans by which every claim against it is met promptly. T'eachers in Camden County do not have to wait for their salaries.
SUPPLEMENTAL.
In some particulars the school interests of Camden county have improved during the past year, yet there is so much to be done before we can afford to think we have at all done our duty to the children that we almost despair. During 1909 there were very few children of
75

school age that were not in school. The people are yet careless about having the children in school, but there has been in the last year an awakening on this line. Many are yet indifferent, but most parents show much more interest than formerly. While our teachers are poorly paid, many of them are true to their work and are trying to do their duty. I will digress here sufficiently to say that we need more training schools for t~achers, and we need more teachers who feel that it is their life work. In the absence of Normal Schools our institutes should be well attended and vigorously used.
I wish we had money sufficient to demand only professionally trained teachers. There have been very perceptible efforts to have the school houses neat, even though they may have been dilapidated. An effort to beautify the grounds around the school buildings frequently attracts attention. When the buildings are enclosed by a fence, the yards a~e generally laid off and planted in flowers, or made attractive in some way. We have built during the year two new houses. While they are not by any means what they should be, yet they are fairly good single room houses, a great improvement on the old ones which they displace. In order to encourage the patrons of the different schools to build, the Board of Education proffers to give the furniture-patent desks and blackboards-for every new house.
We think we are getting people to think, to look after the interests of their children, and if we can accomplish this it will be a long stride toward educating the rising generation.

CATOOSA COUNTY.

I. L. Magill, C. S. c.

To the Grand Jury of Catoosa County.

Gentlemen: I esteem it a privilege as well as a responsible duty to make a report as C. S. C. Some things are encouraging, others discouraging.
We were able to get teachers for all of our schools last year and all but two taught the full time of contract, but a number of the districts are so small that the time had to be less than five months to secure a teacher with the pro rata due the district. In some of the small districts the patrons supplemented the funds and had five months' school, in others they did not supplement and had only three or four months term. Only four districts in the county had over five months' school.
I consider it an inestimable loss to the children not to have longer terms and in many instances better teachers. It is impossible to secure first grade experienced teachers for the little schools without considerable help from the patrons, but many who are able are not interested enough in the education of the children to help.
The Board of Education has the power under the McMichael bill to consolidate the small schools if they think it best to do so, without the consent and co-operation of the the patrons, but there is such strong desire to have schools near, and so much objection to sending across streams and over bad and dangerous roads, that the districts have not been consolidated. I hope the time will soon come when patrons will realize that it is best, and will co-operate with the Board of Education to establish larger and longer term schools.
Most of our teachers did good work, taking into consideration their surroundings, and many pupils made good progress in their studies. The apportionment to
77

Catoosa county from the State as reported by State School Commissioner was $5,431.01, which was 22 cents per capita increase on the apportionment for 1908, but the State School Commissioner informed the Board of Education that it was thought doubtful whether the increase would be available, so our Board thought best to add only 10 cents per capita to former pro rata $2.60, making $2.70 for each pupil of school age for the year 1909, so contracts were given to teachers and the schools taught on that basis.
I received from the State and from sale of estrays $5,278.80, which I paid out in eight payments for the year 1909.
I received from sales of estray during the last twelve months $19.15, which I deposited in the Bank of Ringgold. If this money is not legally claimed by owners of estrays within twelve months from date of sale it can be used for school purposes.
We were enabled to combine our Teachers' Institute with Prof. VV. E. Bryan's Normal, thereby giving all our teachers the privilege of two week's instruction free of tuition and the other two weeks by paying $2.50. It has been the custom of the Board for several years to use twenty-five dollars in the purchase of books for county library. This library now consists of over five hundred volumes, which the teachers borrow and loan to their pupils and patrons. This I consider is as helpful to the cause of education as any money used.
The time of three members of the Board of Education expire at this time, and it is the duty of this Grand Jury to either re-elect or elect others to fill vacancies. I can say for the members whose time expires they have been pUllctual and faithful in the discharge of their duty, and if re-elected will have better knowledge of the practical
78

,
,

operations of the school laws than new members who have not made it a .study. We need men well qualified and who are interested in education, and I trust you will elect them. The members whose time expires areJ. D. Calhoun, J. W. Thomas and A. T. Massingill. If you elect new. members state in your presentments whose place each new member is to filL
On account of a small increase in the funds by the use of the 12 cents per capita left off last year, the apportionment being the same as last year, and there being a little decrease in the number of pupils of school age in the countY,we will be able to pay $3.20 this year.
In conclusion, I earnestly ask your hearty co-operation with the Board. of Education and the teachers to have the very best schools possible. Thanking you all for the interest you have taken in the cause in the -past and your kindness to me, I submit my books and papers for examination, and will gladly answer to the best of my ability any questions relative to the schools you wish to ask, and will assist your committee in the examination of books and papers if desired.
Respectfully,

CHATHAM COUNTY.

Otis Ashmore, Supt.

The educational progress in Chatham county during the past year has been very satisfactory. The recent completion and equipment of our new High School building marks an epoch in secondary educatioJl in our city. No pains have been spared to make its course of study
and general equipment equal to the best ill the C9untr;':
.19

and the facilities now afforded our children for a firstclass High School education has been very much improved.
Savannah has long ago adopted the policy of providing school buildings substantial in character and handsome in design. We have now under construction two new wings to the Henry Street school, by which eight new rooms will be added, making nineteen in the building altogether.
The course of study, both in the High School and in the grammar schools, has been recently revised and enriched, and a constant effort is made to keep the course up to a high standard. Special effort has been made to improve and render more efficient the teaching force during the year.
Savannah has always paid her teachers well, but during the year the salary list was revised, and substantial increases were made in nearly all eases.
Altogether the outlook is bright, and we have -every reason to expect, through the earnest efforts of our Board and teachers, even better results in the future.

L. E. Mallard, C. S. C.

To the Grand' Jury of Charlton County.
Mr. Forematt and Gentlemen: The law requestslillit
I as School Commissioner make to your body a report of school conditions as they exist in your county.
I have endeavored to have all schools taught, and have advised that the patrons send as regularly as possible, and have all teachers on notice that they must show a reasonable advancement in their pupils or they will not be re-e~ployed, and will further state that we have employed better teachers as a rule than heretofore. The people in some communities are yet a little negligent in school matters, but this is righting itself by degrees. We feel sure that if the people are united in school matters and look with interest to their respective schools, that our county would SOOI1 be in the front ranks educationally. Our schools are sure to fall short of their purposes unless we all pull together and make this part of our duty as citizens, a success. Irregular attendance is our greatest drawback, and with this remedied, we can' accomplish much.
Yours respectfully,

STATISTICAL AND FINANCIAL REPORT.
In connection with the statistical and financial report I beg to submit a report of the condition of the schools of the county. In pursuance of the Local Tax Act the county has been divided into twelve school districts by the Board of Education, namely: Cusseta school district, Scotland school district; Hichitee school district; Big Sandy school district; Pineknot school district; Upatoie school district; Halloca school distri<:t; Ochillee school district; Jamestown school distiict; Harps school district; Shack school district, and Sulphur Springs school district. In all of said districts public schools, white and colored, have been organized, except there is no white school in .Jamestown district, there not being enough white children to make a school.
Some of the schools have manifested unusual interest in schools by way of improving school buildings and supplementing salaries of teachers, and have had a very successful term. However, Halloca school- and Providence school failed to continue the fall term on account of failure to secure suitable teachers and having no house in Halloca district. A new school house has been built and the schools have commenced, with good prospects for 1910.
The school term has been increased from six months to seven months for 1910. rrhe county has in the State treasury sufficient funds to pay the teachers' salaries for seven months in 1910, and leave a surplus for improving needed school buildings.
During the year there have been built four new school houses at a cost of about $1,255.00. The Board of Education appropriated about $465.00. The bala:nc~ WqS
Hlised by local taxation and Bulticriptiop,

Whereas the Board of Education did not own any school house prior to 1909, now have five school houses belongIng to the Board of Education valued at $1,255.00, . and expect to aid in more buildings in 1910.
The total value of school houses in the county owned by the Board of Education and patrons is $2,505.00; other property, as furniture, etc., about $650.00. At the August term, 1907, Superior court, the grand jury recommended that the money derived from hire of convicts be used for public schools, and recommended that it be used to build and improve school houses. There has been received of convict hire the sum of $1,417.04. Of this the Board of Education has appropriated for building and for school desks $920.38, leaving balance of convict hire as building fund about $497.56.
Very respectfully submitted,
C. N. HOWARD,

CHEROKEE COUNTY.

J abez Galt, C. S. C.

To- the Honorable Foreman and Gentlemen of the Grand Jury: Under.the law, I, as your County School Commissioner of Cherokee county, am required to make report to your honorable body at the spring session of the Superior Court; leaving off so far as possible, the finances connected with the office, respectfully, referring you to the report of the Finance Committee for these facts, would at once enter upon details in which I hope to interest you.
We have within the county, as per last school census, 4,546 white and 355 colored children, of school age, with an enrollment in our schools of 4,101 white and 392 col-
83

ored children, being more than 10 per cent. of the white

children not enrolled and more than 10 per cent. colored

children enrolled than is shown by the census, which en-

rollment makes only about 57 per cent. average attend-

ance and making only about 51 per cent. average attend-

ance of the entire school population.

This county receives from the State, as her apportion-

ment of the school fund, $14,928.44, which at first glance

is a considerable sum, but when divided out between the

children a small pittance, less than three dollars per

child.

We derive from all other sources $5,741.06, making a

sum total of $20,669.50 for the education of the children

of our county, about $4.00 per child per annum, and

above $5,000 of this $5,741.00 is contributed by two

schools of the county.

We have fifty-six white schools with a teaching force

of eighty-six persons, and six colored schools with seven .

teachers, and with pleasure I would here remark that

there is quite an upward tendency in the grades of our

teachers, 50 per cent. of same holding first grade license.

There was in the year 1909, expended for new build-

ings, repair, etc., $23,804.77, making a total value of all

school buildings in the county of $41,075.00, and a sum

total value of all buildings, desks and equipments of

every kind and character, of $49,213.00, this perhaps may

sound like an exhorbitant sum to many, yet it is a meager

preparation for the schooling of your child, less than you

pay for the ~tabling of your hundred and fifty dollar

mule or your fifty dollar Jersey cow, less than ten dollars

per child, the value of which I dare not estimate.

-

What apathy, what lethargy! Would that I could

arouse in the bosom of every parent a greater zeal for

the cause of education, a greater. ambition for the future

84

of his child, then would he arise in the strength of his might and resolve that he would do better in the future and do it.
The education of our youth is the one great question of the day, the all important question for the future of our country, and God grant that we may not be laggards in this work.
Respectfully,
JABEZ GALT,
C. S. C. Cherokee County.

CLARKE COUNTY.

T. l.I, Dozier, C. S. C.

By reference to Annual Report herewith submitted, it will be seen that the enrollment in our public schools last year was about eighty-two per cent. of the school population. While this is, in a measure, gratifying, the report of the average attendance is not such as to be a matter of congratulation, being only about fifty per cent. of the enroHment and thirty-three per cent. of the school population, based on nine months school term. This meager attendance may be accounted for, in part, by peculiar weather and crop conditions, but is traceable largely to the fact that so many parents do not fully appreciate the opportunity afforded by the common schools for their children, nor the great importance of keeping them at school regularly after they are enrolled.
We have good, comfortable Hnd well equipped school houses in every community, and at such convenient distances as that children of even the youngest school age may attend almost any kind of weather incident to this latitude. We have a corps of teachers as good as may be found in any county of the State; competent, efficient
85

and faithful; all of whom, with three exceptions, have taught in the same localities for two, three, and some as many as five and six years, thereby relieving us of the disadvantage, so often urged, of a constant change of teachers. This is the result of the fact, that with the profits of the Dispensary, before it was abolished, our school fund received from the State, was so supplemented that we were able to offer teachers good salar~es, and pay them promptly at end of each month. For this reason also, we have always had more applications for teacher's places than were required for our schools, and have been able to keep such a number of teachers in each school as was required for the best service, and to. continue the term for nine months where conditions authorized.
This fund is now so nearly exhausted that for the present year we shall not be able to continue the schools more than seven months. We have, though, been forced to the conclusion, after five years experience with nine months schools, that seven months is about as long as rural schools can be profitably kept in operation.
This depends, of course, largely on local conditions. Schools in villages and towns, where there is no local system even, and where the older children are not so much needed in cultivating and gathering the crops, and where the younger and smaller children can safely attend, nine months schools may be kept up, but in strictly country communities, seven months is about the maximum.
After this year we shall have only the school fund received from the State to depend on, and unless some plan is devised to supplement this, we shall be compelled to shorten our school term, or S0 reduce salaries as will drive away our best teachers.
86

,

The levying of a local tax being the only plan now suggested, we trust that when our Board deems it advisable to ask for it, the people will not hesitate to vote the very small tax necessary to continue the schools for seven months.
Very respectfully,
THos. H. DOZIER,
C. S. C. Clarli:e County.

CLAYTON COUNTY.

J. H. Huie, C. S. C.

It is gratifying to be able to report a good deal of progress along educational lines in various ways. The schools have been maintained with their usual enthusiasm and vigor. There have been no disturbing elements or epidemics to interfere with the regular workings of the schools. The teachers have been competent and faithful and seem to have been devoted to their ~ork. The children have been studious and orderly. There have been very few complaints about discipline. The enrollment and average attendance have been better than usual. The white schools have been operated from seven to nine months. For the yea; 1908 we could report but one local tax district, but now we can report three, with a very bright prospect for four more soon. The idea seems to be prevalent in some quarters that the people, in general, are doing nothing for the school, but are depending entirely upon the public school fund for the maintenance of their schools. From our books and reports it
appears that our little county of 144. square miles, with
but three local tax districts, raised the past year from
local taxation $1,400.00; from tuition fees $1,448.30; from lpcidentals ~~~~!67; m~king a total paid direct by the

people of $3,073.97. This, I think, indicates a very healthy and encouraging condition of school work in our county, and should be an inspiration to the patrons to do still better.
It has long been the desire of our school people to have a first-class High School in our midst, where our boys and girls can be thoroughly educated and be in reach of home at all times. It would be criminal in us not to have it. But we've got it. All we want now is patronage-home patronage-so send your boys and girls to the "Jonesboro High SchooL" Some of our people insist that the McMichael tax districts are too large. Every child six years old has a right to be in these schools. Every girl up to 18 has a right to be in them, but cannot be on account of the distance and want of protection. The remedy seems to be smaller districts or wagons.

COLQUITT COUNTY.

John E. Howell, C. S. C.

I am rejoiced to report material progress along all lines of our county school work. New school buildings are rapidly replacing the old, out-of-date ones. With an exception here and there, the buildings have been made comfortable, and all will ere long be seated with patent desks. OUf task of having Qur buildings and equipment made comfortable, adequate and up-to-date, has, through lack of public funds, and consequently having to call upon the patrons for all these improvements, been slow
and embarrassing, but is nearing completion-thanks to

88

the liberality of the people, and the interest and activity of our Board of Education.
The counties of the State are rapidly adopting local tax for their schools. Where the whole counties 0.0 not, there are many local districts in them that adopt it. While I do not oppose local tax by districts, it would be far better to have the county tax so that the entire system could be built up alike, and the tax from the public service corporations distributed throughout the county. An illustration-the railroads running through Tift county paid last year, enough taxes for schools to paint every school building in their county, and to buy a single patent de~k for every pupil in their county.
We have a fine teacher and student body, and, barring the bad weather for school attendance in February, have had a very successful and satisfactory term.

V. A. Ham, C. S. C.

The schools of this county are making progress along several lines. The teachers are equipping themselves better for -the work by taking Normal training and attending summer schools. The people are taking more interest in their schools and as a result of this interest, they are building new houses, or repairing the old ones,_ and these are furnished with new seats and blackboards. Some new school houses will be built during the summer of 1910. Local taxation is growing in favor and some districts will vote for local taxation during the spring of 1910. The year 1909 has been a very successful year in school work. The schools have been full and the average attendance has been very gratifying.
The short term schools were kept in operation for six months, the long term and district schools for eight and nine months.
The system of good roads in this county has helped our schools very much, qnd more especially the rural schools as children are enabled to go a greater distance over good roads than over bad ones. The Teachers' Monthly Institute has created a great interest among the teachers and the meetings are well attended.

DADE COUNTY.

G. A. R. Bible, C. S. C.

There were twenJy white schools and two negro schools taught in this county in 1909, arid I am proud to state that there was a material progress over the year 1908. While the per cent of attendance of 1909 was practically the same as 1908, but the per, cent. of advancement for 1909 far exceeded 1908, and I am pleased to state to you that the people of Dade are becoming aroused in the cause of education of their children as they never have been before. Our district, G. M., has voted local tax. Three other districts contemplate voting on the subject soon. I think it is just a question of time now when every district in the county will favor local tax. While I have worked energetically in the cause since I entered the office I feel like the interest our people are taking are largely due to you. Your addresses left an impression on the people that stimulated them to action, and I hope to arrange to have you with us again sometime before the opening of the summer school. But after all the good we have some bad, out of 1,200 children of school age in this county over 200 did not attend school a single day in the year 1909, and some of the parents of these very same children are complaining about paying taxes for education and getting no benefit of it.
Respectfully submitted,

DECATUR COUNTY.

J. S. BradweJl, C. S. C.

During the past school year we had in operation 4f white and 41 colored schools. rrhe enrollment of whites

91

was 2,564, colored 3,158. The average attendance of whites .was 1,555, that of the colored 1,937. The white schools were taught by 71 teachers, 18 males and 53 females. The colored were taught by 58 teachers, 10 males and 48 females.
Of the white teachers 8 held State license, 42 held first grade, 12 second grade and 9 third grade license. Of the whites 50 had received normal training; of the colored 7 had received normal training.
A large number of these white teachers are thoroughly consecrated to their work and are doing honest and effective service, not following ail avocation merely for its financial benefits or other ends in view.
There are a few, however, ~o whom this commendation could not justly apply.
A decided obstacle in the way of greater success in retaining the best teachers in our schools is the failure of the State to make provision for their prompt payment. This is especially true of those districts which do not levy a local tax. Twenty-five of our school districts levied a local tax last year to supplement the State fund. Since then one other district has voted for it. Without this local tax there are several districts of the county where the State school fund could warrant the employment of only one third grade teacher for a short term of three or four months and some of these had no school at all until the redistricting of the county under the McMichael law and the adoption of the local tax.
Our tax collector has received to date for 1909 the sum of $13,332.00 of local tax funds for the 25 tax districts in the county to be paid by the trustees for teachers' salaries, building, repairing and equipping school houses. More than half of this money was paid by non-resident property owners of these districts, by
92

railroad and other corporations. We have no one-teacher white school where the attendance justifies the employment of assistants. It is the rule of our Board of'Educa-
tion to employ assistants where the actual attendance is
40 or more. There are several factors at work in our cou.nty be-
sides the benefits of local tax of these districts that make the future of our educational interests brighter than they have ever been in the past. Prominently among these may be mentioned our good roads, rural delivery of mails, the telephone and telegraph lines radiating in every direction, abundance of pure artesian water, improved farming methods and many other civilizing agencies that are making the rural home more desirable. It has been clearly proven that nothing adds more to the material development of any community than good, efficient schools, since the desirability of any locality is largely measured among intelligent people by the educational advantages offered its residents. If we can give every white child in Decatur county at least, the elements of an English education, these future citizens of the rural districts will not be satisfied with anything inferior to the comforts and attractions afforded the residents of the towns. Many of them have these now and an increasing number will be induced to remain on the farms in proportion to the measure of comforts the country offers as' compared with those of the towns. So the logical conclusion seems to be that the future welfare of the country is based on the degree of intelligence which the State can give to her citizens through the schools.
There are always many kinds of obstacles to be overcome in the way of operating a satisfactory school system for the rural districts; many of them most perplexing in
93

any attempted solution, bu~ in spite of many discourage

ments we have made reasonable progress on the whole.

"~Ne had Jast year 16 schools giving High School

courses, 7 of these hnve libraries aggregating 512

volumes. \Ve expect our next annual report to show a

large increase in these features. The above does not in-

elude the Baptist denominational boarding school estab-

lished last year at Cyrene at a cost of some $30,000,

whose statistics we are not prepared to give here and

which will in the future add largely to the educational

interests of the county.

DODGE COUNTY.

M. L. Burch, C. S. C.

To the Honorable Grand Jury Dodge Superior Court.
Gentleme'n: Under the law it becomes my duty to make a report to your honorable body of the school operations of your county, for the year ending December 31, 1909, and in accordance therewith, I respectf~lly submit the following:
Our schools for said year were operated six months with a decided increase, but as to enrollment and attendance, not only over the previous year, but over any year in the history of the county. I invite your attention to a comparison between the year 1908, itself being a record breaker, and that of 1909, as to enrollment and attendance, as shown by the following carefully tabulated figures compiled from the teachers' annual reports for the said two years, to-wit:

94 .

Pupils, 1908.

White.

. Enrollment ----'---'---,---- 2080 Attendance -------------- 1066 Pupils, 1909.

Enrollment -------------- 2916 Attendance -------------- 1627

Colored. 1301 714
1429. 813

Total 1381 1780
4345 2410

Thus it will be seen that the enrollment for white children for the year 1909, exceeded that of 1908, by 836, and that of the colored children by 128, making a total increase of 964 pupils.
The attendance for the same year shows an increase of 561 white and 99~010red children, making a total increased attendance of 660. The total enrollment of white pupils in our schools last year was a fraction above 84112 per cent. of the entire white school population of the county, as shown by the last school census, and that of the colored pupils, a fraction less t.han 61 per cent. of the colored school population. This showing is highly gratifying and encouraging, and I beg to tender my hearty congratulations and deepest gratitude to parents, trustees, teachers, one and all, who have so generously put their shoulders to the wheel, and in co-operation with the County Board of Education, are thus bringing things to pass.
We have thirteen school districts now operating under the local district tax law, to-wit: Antioch, Bethel, Beulah, Catharine, Chauncey, Cross Roads, Giddens, Hamilton, Leon, Macedonia, Middle Ground, Ocmulgee, Pine Level. Dubois school district has also voted favoraby on the law, but the election was not held in time for the levy last fall, hence no 'tax for the present school year. It will be all right, however, for the next.
95

There were seven new school houses built last year, costing approximately, $4,500.00. They all belong to the County Board of Education, and have been furnished with patent desks, heaters, teachers' tables, chairs blackboards, etc. Dodge county now has a goodly number' of neat, comfortable and fairl! well equipped school houses, although, I regret to say, that some of our districts have not yet supplied themselves with school houses, but are still using churches instead.
Owing to the large number of school houses built and furnished, together with supplies for many other school houses belonging to the Board, our expenditures were unusually heavy as will be shown by the following financial statement:

$19,192.74 $19,192.74

In addition to the above, which applies only to the public fund, I think it not amiss to mention the fact that
96

our people have contributed liberally, in the way of local tax and tuition fees, towards sustaining and improving the schools of the county~ According to the teachers' reports, I find th~t the thirteen local tax districts supplemented the salaries of the teachers of these districts, last year, to the amount of $1,204.03, while the remaining nontaxable districts contribut.ed $2,831.54, in the way of tuition fees, as a supplement to the teachers' salaries of these districts. T'he city schools of Eastman report $4,756.50 received from local taxation; $215.00 from tuition fees, and $1,350.00, from incidental fees, making a total of $6,321.50. Consolidating these several items, we have the total sum of $10,376.87, in excess of the public school fund. I q.esire in this connection to state, that in order to be clearly and distinctly understood, not one penny of these several amounts passes through the hands of the County School Commissioner, nor are they, in any way, subject to the control, custody, or disbursement of the County Board of Education.
All of which is respectfully submitted,
M. L. BURCH,

DOOLY COUNTY.

E. G. Greene, C. S. C.

I am persuaded that, as a rule, the school conditions in this county are gradually improving. The people, generally, are taking more interest in educa,tion, especially in the rural districts.
Nearly 90 per cent. of the white children in the county were enrolled in the schools during last term. The average attendance, including the local tax districts and the municipal systems, was over 60 per cent. of the enroll-
97

4-8. C.

ment. Outside the towns and local tax districts the average was only about 50 per cent. of the enrollment.
,Ve built one school house during the year. Several others were ceiled, painted, and otherwise improved.
At the beginning of last term our Board offered four medals to the boys and girls of the schQols, up to and including the seventh grade, for the best recitations and declamations. The contest came off at the court house a few days ago. Considerable interest was manifested by both teachers and pupils, and nearly all the schools in the county were represented in the contest. We believe the contest will result in great good to the schools.
We have a "Boy's Corn Club" organized in the county with about forty members. The boys seem to be greatly interested in the work, mid w.e expect some good to the county generally through the Club.

DOUGLAS COUNTY.

G. T. McLarty, C. S. C.

We, your committee on County School Commissioner's report find it neatly and correctly kept, and that his report attached is true.
R. M. JOHNSON, Chairman.

SCHOOL COMMISSIONER'S REPORT.

I herewith submit my annual report of the condition of the public schools of this county for the year 1909.
The schools were kept in session 120 days on the merits of the public funds. The Douglasville schools and the two local tax districts were for a longer period. Out of the school population of 1,923 whites, 1,804 were en-
98

rolled as pupils; and out of a school population of 964

colored, 694 entered school.

This is perhaps as much as we could expect until we

have more financial support: There was one new house

erected during the year-Mount Carmel,~at a cost to

the community, with some assistance from the Board of

Education, of $500. Two schools have purchased pat-

ent desks and furnishings-Mt. Carmel and the Tenth

District school. Several school buildings have been

repaired. Three school libraries have been established

during the past year.

In order to pay the teachers promptly the County

Board of Education for the past two or three years has

been borrowing money on personal security, thus en

abling teachers to get the amount due them without re-

sorting to discount. This, I think, has done much to

raise the standard of teaching in our county.

Taking the year as a whole, we have made progress:--

the enrollment and attendance being larger than in pre-

vious year. But while we stand well lip among the coun-

ties of the State in the matters of education, yet we

should not be satisfied until every child in the county

can, at least, read and write. Following is the financial

showing of the receipts and disbursements for the past

year, VIZ.:

EARLY COUNTY.

B.R. Collins, C. S. C.

During the past year, the schools of Early county have been more largely attended than ever before, in fact all the ~hite children of the county are in school except twenty-two. We attribute this unusual attendance to the thorough work that is being done by the teachers, who have been making a personal canvas in each district in order to get the children in ~chool.
There has been a decided interest in the public schools of the county, and the matter of consolidation of schools, and providing for the supplementing of the schools, by local taxation for both, but agitated with the result that one-third of the county supports its schools under local tax, and three very fine S'chools are being operated by reason of doing away with one or two small schools and combining them all in one. There are several movements on foot to improve on the present status of these educational conditions.
The farmers of Early county are heartily in favor of compulsory attendance, and the changing of the constitutional provision denying the right of the ~tate to support high schools'.
The purpose of the Board of Education is to arouse such interest and enthusiasm in public school conditions, as will authorize them to get a County School Commissioner who can devote all the time and attention to the office. Dated at Blakely, Ga., February 28th, 1910.
Respectfully submitted,

ECHOLS COUNTY.

J. G. Prine, C. S. C

The schools' in Echols county are in better shape than in any previous year. The Board of Education is trying to place the public money so it will do all the good possible. The patrons supplement the teachers salaries in very near all the schools-this enables them to get better teachers, and in some instances causes them to be able to retain their old teachers.
1909 was the banner school year in our county thus far. The patrons were more liberal in contributing to their teachers salaries-sent their children to s~hool more regular, and more of them, than ever before. About 88 per cent. of the white children were enrolled, while only 40 per cent of the colored children were enrolled. Taking the topography of the county in consideration, our enrollment and average attendance was very good. During the summer of 1910, we hope to carry countywide taxation for school purposes'. Our people are beginning to realize that this is the only move that will give them better schools, longer terms, and more competent teachers. Then we can build better schoolhouses and equip them without so much expense to a few, but all will share alike.
We are working to make 1910 excell all others in thl:! advancement of education. We want to make a better showing, and show to the people that we have the brain if they will only furnish us the means to cultivate them.

ELBERT COUNTY.

J. N. Wall, C. S. C.

The enrollment of white pupils of Elbert county for . the year 1909, was 90 per cent.
The enrollment of colored pupils was about 98 per cent, but the average attendance of whites was better than that of colored.
Elbert county is very much behind from the standpoint of good school houses, yet it ranks as having ,almost the lowest percentage of illiteracy of any county in the State, there being less than two per cent of white children between six and eighteen years of age who cannot read and write, artdabout eleven per cent of colored.
We find it difficult to secure a goodly number of competent and experienced teachers and the work is very much retarded by having to use material that does not measure up to the standard.
We have several districts that have gone into local taxation, but it would be far better if the law were changed so that it could be voted on only by counties, as it proves a great mischief-maker when it is operated only by districts.
The next Legislature could do nothing wiser than to eliminate the objectionable features of this law relating to local tax.
J. N. WALL,
C. S. C. Elbert County.

FLOYD COUNTY.

J. C. King, C. S. C.

It is gratifying to me to report that the work of the common schools of Floyd county during the year 1909, was highly satisfactory, and in my judgment the best

102

that has been accomplished since the' organization of the common school system of the State.
This may be accounted for in ways: first, a greater and more vital interest has possessed the minds of the people of many of the rural settlements of the need of better schools and teachers thoroughly competent of instructing their children in schools at home at an expense much below that paid for tuition and other expens'es for attendance in town or city schools; second, the country people have become reconciled to the division of the county into school districts and the location of the school houses in the districts.
A good and comfortable schoolhouse, supplied with modern school furniture, can be found in each one of the fifty-two school districts'.
Twelve districts operated, during the year, schools under local taxation for sessions from seven to nine months.
.some districts expended considerable amounts of the local tax money for schoolhouse improvements'.
The educational contest at the close of the schools consisting of declamations, recitations and composition exercises was enthusiastic, and many of the schools had contestants in the exercises'.
The renditions of the contestants for the gold medals were highly creditable to both teachers and pupils.
The annual convention of the local trustees held in Rome in September, was attended by delegates from many of the school districts, and many excellent speeches were made by prominent educators', ministers and lawyers of the city and county. The county school commissioner put himself in close touch with his school com-
103

munities, teacheFs and pupils by numerous visits to the schools.

(A)-DRAWING.
, 'There is a lesson in each flower, A story in each stream and bower; In every herb on which you tread, Are written words, which rightly read Will lead you from earth's fragrant soil, To hope and holiness and God."
-Allen Cunningham.

Boys and girlS' of all grades have a part in the study of art. This course includes landscapes and light-andshade drawings from objects and from life. Emphasis is placed on the study of form, proportion, perspective, and the elementary principles of composition. Crayon, pencil and water color are the principal mediums used, though instruction in pen-and-ink and charcoal is also given. Much interest has been manifested in the study of design, and the application of same.
That the love of Nature is gaining ground among us, is shown in many ways. This study promotes a spirit of unselfishness' which can enjoy the beauties of Nature and leave them as we found them for some one else tp
104

enjoy after us. After painting, during school hours, one of the many beautiful wild flowers found by the roadside, a boy is not tempted to pluck and carelessly throwaway one of its many cousins on his way home.
(B)-COOKING.
"We may live without poetry, music and art; We may live without conscience, and live without heart; . We may live without friends; we may live without books; But civilized man cannot live without cooks."
-Owen Meredith.
Such must have been the thought of the Fulton County School Board when domestic science was introduced into the schools.
Our aim is to omit nothing that pertains to household economics and the betterment of the home. This course is planned to give a general knowledge of foods and their preparation. It compris'es the study of the properties of food principles, and the economic planning, selection, preparation and serving of meals. Our main object in this course is to be practical, preparing foods grown in the country districts in a simple, attractive, dig'estable manner. Above all things else, cleanliness is emphasized in the work of the kitchen. We dwell upon the nutritive value of foods and the germ theory in realization of the fact that the question of health is the business of the home-maker to a very great extent. Kitchen utensils, finger nails, clothing and the like are, as we all know, excellent germ carrier:;;.
We think the spending of money is of as much importance as the earning of money, and we endeavor in a practical way to make both ends meet by disposing of our lunches for a sufficient amount to meet expenses
105

and gradually add improvements in the kitchen. The county furnishes us' a range with cooking utensils, and five dollars with which to buy the first provisions. We are then able to provide for ourselves, as we have calls for everything we cook. In one kitchen, where we have a class sufficiently large to divide into junior and senior, we have earned as much as twenty dollars this year, which amount has been used in the manner stated.
We endeavor to correllate this lesson with the other studies of the child by composition, reproduction, and the memorizing of applicable quotations to impress these important truths on the child's memory.
(C)-SEWING.
By our educational ideals is determined the character of our schools. The study of food, clothing and shelter should be centered in the immedate surroundings of the pupil. Maps should constantly be before the clais for the location of the cities and countries from whence our clothing comes. Geography, more naturally than any other school subject, opens the way to this study of industrial and social conditions.
This course gives the instruction necessary to enable the pupil to make many useful garments. It includes practice in plain sewing, practical lessons in cutting and fitting children's garments, boys' waists, shirtwaists, and other useful articles. Les'sons in piecing and mending are also given.
Domestic science and millinery are taught to the girls of the sixth, seventh and eighth grades. The girls completing this course are, therefore, better fitted to fill a position either in the home or the business world, and have a practical as well as a literary education.

(D)~WOOD WORK AND HANDICRAFTS.
The boys of these three higher grades receive instruction in wood work, metalography, gardening, stenciling and designing, knife work, pyrography, card board construction, and maps of all kinds~relief, charcoal, pencil and color.
To teach the boys such things as will enable them to be successfull farmers and market gardeners is' the chief aim of this department.
In contrast to the old time edueation of head only, the aim is a well rounded development of head, heart and hand, believing that this will best prepare the child to meet the duties of life.
MISS Lucy ZACHARY, Supervisor.

GILMER-COUNT'Y.

W. H. Allen, C. S. C.

In presenting a short review of the school work of Gilmer county for 1909, I feel assured in making the statement, that under our rwesent system the schools have made some progress. It is the aim of those in control of our school affairs to give all the children, residing within our county, a common school education. The schools are open a sufficient number .of months each year to accomplish this desirable result. Comfortable schoolhouses hav:e been erected to suit present demands. School terms are so adjusted as to secure the attendance of the greatest number. of students.
The County Board of Education are still paying our teachers according to grade, which we believe has' a tendency to stimulate them for more thorough preparation and for better work in the school-room. The demand for good teachers is on the increase,. and this fact alone

107

is the highest evidence that the people are becoming aroused and are thinking to snme purpose.
One of the greatest weaknesses in our edu0ational system is' the fact that in most of our schools there is but one teacher. There are more than four hundred square miles of territory in the county,and this area is divided into more than forty school districts. When the present Board of Education came into office, they found the above number of schools in operation, and made school districts to suit the convenience of the schools already established. Some of these houses are less than three miles apart. One teacher has to care for every grade from the lowest to. the highest. It is needless to say that when such conditions prevail, it is beyond the power of even the most industrious teacher to do justice to every pupil. Most of our people seem to have beeh educated to think that the nearer they live to the school the better off they are. Efforts are being made to convince them that it is by far, better to S'end three miles to a good school than to have a poor one at their door. When two or three of these schools unite, with two or three competent teachers in each one, from the first to the hlst of the term, then we' may expect as efficient work in our country schools as is being done in the town schools. And as a result, the children in the one-teacher schools are not getting more than half of what they should for their expenditure of time. We have too many small, one-teacher schools. Our progress would be much more rapid and our teaching much more efficient, if we had thirty-five large schools, instead of our forty-eight small ones.
Our teachers are faithful and energetic, but are not as ambitious as they s~ould be. But they are not to be blamed for this. On account of small salaries and long delayed payments, t~ey are very much discouraged and
108

.are not doing as good work as' they could if given better treatment and their claims given more consideration.

GRADY OOUNTry.

J. S. Weathers, O. S. O.

To the Grarnd Jury of Grady County.

Pursuant to law, I herewith submit the annual report

of the schools of Grady county for the past year. Having

assumed the duties of Oounty School Oommissioner but

recently, my report must of necessity be based to a large

extent upon the annual report of my predecess'or, to-

gether with the general knowledge of the school condi-

tions of the county. By reference to the annual report

Of the Oounty School Oommissioner for 1909, it is found

that 4,208 pupils were enrolled in the schools of the

county for that year. Of this amount 2,829 were white

and 1,379 were colored. From this enrollment of 4,208

we have an average attendance of 2,650, showing an aver-

age attendance of about 60 per cent.

The total amount received from the State for 1909

was $17,168,94. During that year six new school build-

ings were built at a total cost of $1,600.00. Eight old

buildingS' were repaired at a cost of $440.00, making the

total amount of the improvements in school equipments

$2,040.00.

Only two school libraries for the entire county were

reported with about 275 volumes in the two libraries.



I believe that this last annual report in many respects

shows very definite progress along many lines, which is

due no doubt, in a very great degree to the wis'e adminis-

109

tration of this office by the former County School CommISSIoner. The average attendance shows an increase over preceding years, but this is by no means what it should be, and it is hoped that the people of the county may realize the importance of regular attendance upon the school duties by the children. Report shows that the average child who enters the public s'chools of the county receives only about three months' instruction, when :five months' of free tuition has been provided for by -the State.
The general condition of the school houses in the country districts in most instances show a very deplorable condition of affairs. In many cases they are too crowded, not sufficiently lighted and very poorly arranged. One of the greatest hardships that the children have to bear is having very poor desks and seats.
We now have twelve districts in the county that have voted Local Taxation, and this we regard as one of the strongest evidences' of progress along educational lines. The State cannot undertake to give the children of school age a thorough education and it ought to be emphasized with the hearty cooperation of parents in supplementing the salaries of teachers and lengthening the school term are, necessary to a full development of the educational interest of the county. It is a matter of genuine -regret that the schools of the county are so many in number that most of them have to operate with only one teacher. By lessening the number of schools and increasing the teaching force of those'schools remaining would do much towards the efficiency of our school system. If we could lengthen the school term and increase the teachers' pay we could get much better results than we do under pres'ent conditions and to do this it seems very
110

necessary to consolidate many of the schools, thereby lessening the necessity of hiring so many teachers.
The teachers library in the Commissioner's office is a source of great usefulness to the teachers of the county and the number of volumes read from month to month has already created an educational interest that we hope will still increase.
Grady county in its infancy was very fortunate in having as its County School Commissioner a man whose wise administration and active appreciation of her educational needs has done muck for its people and I pledge to YQur body the same loyalty and energy that has characterized the administration of this office heretofore.
Respectfully submitted,

GREENE COUNTY.

W. A. Purks, C. S. C.

This has been the most progressive year on educational lines that our county has' experienced since I have been connected with the work.
Estimated by the census of 1908 there was an enrollment of 97lj2 per cent. of the pupils in the rural districts or the schools under county supervision, not including the two local systems in our county.
The average attendance was 74% per cent. of the enrollment, which shows a very good average but by no means satisfactory.
111

This is a hindrance which is hard to overcome even in communities where there is apparent interest and in some instances enthusiasm. A consciousness of the evil effects of irregular attendance will have to be aroused in the lives of parents' before this can be corrected. There were built in rural districts during the year 1909 two new school buildings and others improved and made comfortable.
This tendency to build and equip for the best work possible is growing among our people. Such efforts on the part of parents is invariably followed by ~he better attendance. Our teachers in most instances are actively assisting in bringing about those improved conditions. In fact, our school communities, taken as a whole, are showing an appreciation. of their. teachers and efforts, which is arousing enthusiasm on the part of teachers and instilling energy into the pupils.
Respectfully,
W. A. PURKS,
C. S. C. Greene County.

The school term, for 1909, was only ninety days. We were short on the convi~t hire which we, through the recommendations of the Grand Juries of the past, were allowed to use for school purposes.
112

,

There is a growing unrest among the schools of the rural districts, in particular for better ,teachers and longer terms'.
Until this unrest shall result in local tax to lengthen and strengthen the schools of our entire county our children will not be tutored and trained for the responsibilities of life.
Our teachers are earnest and faithful to their every duty.
Our county is particularly blessed with high school advantages.
Within our borders there are six long term s'chools, giving high school, academic and collegiate instruction. This is an advantage that only few know how to appreciate. The long term schools are so situated as to be of easy access to our many bright boys and girls.
At this session of the Grand Jury there must be three members of the Board of Education elected. The terms of J. A. Crow, B. F. Free and J. L. McClure will expire when their successors are elected and qualified.
It is my high privilege as well as my bounden duty to say of these three men that their labors have been able, earnest and well directed. And while we have many men in Habersham that would make useful members of the Board of Education, you would do honor to yours'elves and great good to the cause of education to re-elect these faithful men. In your election you must say who must succeed whom.
In your general presentments, gentlemen, I trust that you will commend such steps as shall best tend to the promotion of the education of our children in dear old Habersham. . Respectfully submitted,
C. W. GRANT,
C. S. C. Habersham County.

HALL COUNTY.

R. L. Blackwell, C. S. c..

To the Grand Jury of Hall County:

Gentlemen: As the law directs, I hereby give your honorable body a brief outline of the work of the common schools of your county the past year.
There has been one more school district voted for local tflxation in the county, Flowery Branch, since my last report to your honorable body. Some others voted on the question but failed to carry for local tax.
There has been a splendid house of four recitation rooms and a good auditorium above, also good library room, and two small ante-rooms to auditorium that can be used as music rooms if need be, built at what was Murrayville school, now Castleberry Institute. This has been accepted by the North Georgia Conference of the M. E. Church as their High School for this district. Splendid work is being done in this school. Also the house at Gillsville has been almost completed. This is' not in our county but we furnish about 80 pupils to this school and are therefore interested in it. They have rebuilt with brick, building a three-room house. Outside of this there has not been any special activity in building schoolhouses in the county the past year. Some other repairing has been done.
"The local trustees of the various schools found it very difficult to obtain teachers for all their schools as did the C. S. C. when the local trustees would call on him for help under the system of paying the teachers a per diem and the Board of Education adopted the salary system of paying the teachers for the year 1910. By this method we find it much easier to obtain the services of good teachers. The Board of Education also adopted the plan of paying the teachers' at the end of each month by

114

borrowing the money at eight per cent. interest. This also has done much for our teachers."
R. L. BLACKWELL, C. S. C. Hall County.

HARRIS COUNTY

TI. L. Thomason, C. S. C.

The work done by the schools of Harris county for

the year 1909 was better than usuaL Good salaries were

paid and the best teachers were secured for. most of the

schools. The patronS' and people took unusual interest

in school work with few exceptions. More interest was taken in the ~eachers' meetings

than any year in the past. The annual institute was a

success in every sense. I think our schools are growing

more efficient every year.

Long term schools' are increasing and the districts

which have adopted local taxation are doing splendid

work.

T. L. THOMASON,

C. S. C. Harris County.

HEARD COUNTY.

H. H. Cook, C. S. C.

There has been a marked improvement among our schools for the present year, and a general school interest among our people seems to be gradually growing and in-;creasing year by year. Under our present system of management of paying teachers by the grade of license they hold, and then paying them promptly at end of each month by borrowing money when State funds are delayed, are working very s'atisfactory to all concerned.

115

While paying interest on money borrowed makes the teachers salary a little less, yet it is far preferable than to have them wait several months for their money from the State as has been usually the case heretofore.
We find prompt payment insures better. and efficient work, and better teachers.
There has been a few new school buildings erected in the county during the year, and more are contemplating being built the following year which shows some progress on that line.
There has been some gains of the 7th grade examinations in our county schools among the children. It 1 think is stimulalting and encouraging, and all of the schools should hold them.
Our teachers institute is held one week during the summer months, and are tolerably well attended with much interest though not as much and as well as' they should be. We still hope to better them and increase them in importance and interest.
We have only a few private schools in the county supplementing the public five months term, though we hope .for an increase along this line later on.
In fact the general conditions of one school for 1909 has been pretty fair, and the outlook for the future we hope more favorable and encouraging. We have a very efficient corps of teachers in the county, who as a whole seem laboring for the advancement and betterment of our schools.
One thing we find while visiting our schools is a lack of necessary books for the pupils which seem hard to overcome by the teachers, as parents are so careless and unthoughtful of the necessary needs of their children along that"line.
116

I believe in order to make our schools what they should be, and to have better attendance at school, the compulsory school law should be put ill force as well as to force parents to furnish necessary books for their children.
Will say th~ observance of our national holiday school days' are receiving more attention than formerly, and I think it will be only a question of time as to when they as a whole will be observed with a spirit of enthusiasm.
As the years roll by we hope to make our schools in the county more efficient and more progressive.
H. H. COOK,
C. S. C. Heard County.

HENRY COUNr:ry.

. Lawrence Duffey, C. S. C.

Following I submit a condensed statement of school conditions in Henry county for the year 1909.

T'EACHERS.
I am convinced that all of our teachers are thorough and up-to-date. We have employed during the year 139 -105 whiteS', 34 colored.
10 hold permanept license, 67 with one year or more of Norillal training. Owing to the number of consolidated schools in the county, we have been able to place more and better teachers, satisfactorily, than in our teacher schools, on account of the fact that separate rooms are provided, rather than one or more teachers in the same rooJll, which necessarily brings confusion and disorder.
117

ATTENDANCE.
The last census shows for this county 2,727 white children of school age. We enrolled during the year 2,683, which leaves only' 44 to be accounted for. Average attendance writes, 2,016. Of the colored children of school age census shows 3,328, of these there were enrolled 2,014, with average attendance of 1,450. From the above will be seen that the negroes are to some extent unconcerned inthe matter of education, refusing to allow their children to attend, particularly if they are called upon to pay for their children, depending wholly upon the "government" as they term it. We have only 33 white children over 10 years, who can neither read nor write.
NUMBER OF SCHOOLS.
We have 31 white schools wholly in the county,having from one to five teachers. Some have music and expression added, and some are teaching agriculture on small plats of ground on the school grounds. We have 5 line schools in other counties, to which our children attend on account of being nearer.
There are 27 colored schools wholly in the county with 4 line schools. Very few of our children I am glad to say attend schools beyond the limits of this' county.
LENGTH OF TERM..
Our term for both white and colored is six months. This term is. supplemented by the people from one to three months. The public term for whites is thefollow~ ing months: January, February, March, April, November and December.
. Colored term January, February, March, July, August, December. The arrangement for the colored is to meet the obvious demands of labor conditions.
118

TRANSPORTATION.
When the transportation idea was inaugurated in this county, it was foreseen that after a short while and when the people were given an object lesson as to the value of consolidated schools, that this question would soon take care of itself. The people preferring to arrange for transportation themselves and the cost of same to be applied to the running expenseS' of the school. So now we are employing only one. wagon.
COST OF SCHOOLS.
Our total receipts for all purposes and from all sources during the year was $38,831.00. Of this amount $35,910.00 was applied to white schools, $2,921.00 to colored schools. $18,130.32 was received from the State, leaving $20,600.00 received from the people, in excess of the State fund. Of the State fund $13,709.09 was paid to white teachers, $1,964.41 paid to colored teachers. The balance paid to s'chool improvements and running expenses of office of County School Commissioner. Average salary paid all teachers, white and colored, male and female, $51.00. Average cost of pupils per annum, $8.26.
VALUE OF SCHOOL PROPERTY.
With the aid derived from liberal subscriptions by the County Board of Education, our people have either built new school houses, or overhauled old ones, so that now we are estimating our buildings and equipment to be worth approximately $106,000.00.
IMPROVEMENTS AND NEW BUILDINGS.
During the year a handsome new two room building Was' erected at Luella costing $1,200.00; a two acre lot for same $400.00; total $1,600.00. Also a substantial
119

house with grounds was provided at Fairview costing $800.00. Progress school district people are perfecting plans for a commodious two room building' and equipment during this year (1910). When this is completed our county will then have all new houses or old ones' renovated so that they will be practically new, including the Daniel school building which has been overhauled lately, so that it makes a handsome appearance. It is only fair to say that in above estimates are included "Locust Grove Institute," which does not receive funds from the State. Figures were kindly furnished by Prof. Claude Gray the efficient principal of the school.
From the foregoing it is' clearly shown that the people of Henry county are alive on school matters, and that they are providing ample school buildings and equipments. That they are paying for the Education of their children, and that their children are in actual attendance in the schools. We have three taxing districts. All the county laid off in school districts, with live go ahead trustees in each district.
Too much praise can not be extended to these trustees, and to the members' of the County Board of Education, for the energetic and business methods that have been introduced, and had the courage to carry out regardless of opposition and malice.
Respectfully submitted,
LAWRENCE DUFFEY,
C. S. C. Henry County.

IRWIN COUNTY.

J. W. Weaver, C. S. C.

To the Grand Jury:

It is my pleasure, as well as my duty, to report to your body, at this term of the court, the operations of the
120

,
schools of Irwin county for the school year ending December 31, 1909.
The term' was' seven months, beginning November 2d, 1908, and closing May the 20th, 1909.
The white schools averaged six and one-half months, the colored schools averaged about five months, to be exact, 96 days.
Of the 33 white teachers employed three held State license, 15 1st Grade, 10 2nd Grade and 5 3rd Grade. 19 had no normal training.
The school population ?f Irwin county, according to the census of 1908, was 2,549 as follows: whites 1,433, colored, 1,106.
The enrollment for 1909 was' whites 1,175, colored 756. Average attendance whites 669, colored 465.
During the year we built six houses at a cost of $2,450, repaired three at a cost of $239, put in $758.68 worth of furniture and fixtures.
With few exceptions, we 'have a very good ~uilding in each district, the most of which are ceiled and about onehalf of them painted.
Of the 28 white school buildings the Board of Education holds the deeds to 20 of them.
I regret to say that we have but few libraries and they are very small. We have but few well shaded grounds. This accounted for in the faet of our rapidly developing country making it neces'sary to often change school sites. We have quite a number of small trees that will soon add much to the beauty and comfort of the buildings and the grounds.
The people ~f the Mystic district, aided by the people of the county and the Board of Education, have erected a building at a cost of $2,500, which is not included in my report for 1909.
121

The school property of Irwin county is valued at $16,437 as follows: Buildings $11,970, real estate $2,000 and .furniture and fixtures $2,467, none of which is insured.
The patrons as well as the pupils of the county art} becoming interested along agricultural lines. While, we have been unable, so far, to get but few of our schools to organize their pupils into improvement and corn clubs, we have been able to interest several along these lines, from which we expect much good in the near future.
The teachers attend the institute well and take an active part in the work. A large per cent. of them S'eem very much devoted to their work in the school room and I consider the work done above the average.
Taking all things into consideration, I consider the past year's work, taken as a whole, the best in the history of the schools of the county.
I invite a close investigation of the work of the past and earnestly ask and shall expect your hearty co-operation in the future.
Respectfully submitted,
J. W. WEAVER,
C. S. C. Irwin County.

JEFF DAVIS COUNTY.

T. J. Ellis, C. S. C.

To the Grand Jury of Jeff Davis County:

Gentlemen:: Complying with law, I submit herewith, my annual report of school operations during 1909.
There were during 1909, twenty-two white schools, with an enrollment of 708, or about 32 to the school upon an average.
There were six colored schools, with an enrollment of 180, or about 30 to each school average.
122

The attendance fOJ: both races while not satisfactory, shows a marked improvement over any year since I have been in office. There were s'chools of some length in every school district in the county-mostly for full term of five months. No child was deprived of school privileges by reason of distance.

There were during the year, something like $500.00 put in new buildings, and about $100.00 spent in repairing and furnishing old ones.

Our schools are now in a flourishing condition, and they are moving along as nearly satisfactory as they can be expected under the circumstances. While our schools are far from ideal, they show gradual improvement, and it shall be my earnest endeavor to increase their efficiency in every possible manner as long as I continue in office.

This March 2nd, 1910.

JOHNSON COUNTry.

A. J. M. Robinson, C. S. C.

The common schools' of Johnson county were successfully operated in 1909. The work done by our teachers was faithful and efficient. We are making a great effort to educate the whole mass.
We request the teachers to see after the pupils phy. sically, mentally and morally. I think we are making
some progress on all these lines.
School houses: We built one small house in 1909. Nearly all the s'chool houses for white children are ceiled and furnished with patent desks, maps and charts. The negro school houses are very poor. The negroes, how-

123

ever, deserve credit, as they pay the board of nearly all their teachers. We are opposed to taking a part of the small appropriation to build and furnish school houses. I have been told if you give a Chinaman a book he will not read it, but if you will charge him five cents for the
s'ame book he will read it. Now, I believe that people,
in a great many respects, are alike. If we can only get the patrons to put something into their respective schools, they will take more interest in them.
We have two districts which have voted local tax. Term of schooL We have a five months term. We teach three and a half months in the spring and one and one-half months more whenever it suits patrons andteacher. F'or 1910 we have made the term five months, but whenever the patrons will supplement with a month we will give an extra month.

LAURENS COUNTY.

J. T. Smith, C. S. C.

To the Grand Jury of Laurens County:

Gentlemen: As the law requires, I hereby submit to you my annual report of the public schools of this county for the year 1909.
By authority of the -County Board of Education, there were taught in the county 105 schools. Of this number, 62 were white and 43 colored. There were also three or four line schools taught in adjoining counties, which have not been reported to this county.

The above figures do not embrace, the Dublin public schools', the Dexter school, the Cedar Grove school, nor the line schools taught in adjoining counties. About 1,500 children attended these last mentioned schools during the year 1909. We thus see that there were nearly 8,000 in Laurens county attended school during 1909.
A number of our common schools commenced work the first Monday in January and many others later on,
125

so tRat nearly all our schools are now in operation with a good attendance and fine prospects of success. .
I am sorry to say that some of our schools are not equipped with good houses and furniture, and these are very essential to the best school work. Five school districts in the county have voted for and secured local taxation, one object in these districts being to obtain better s'chool facilities. Generally, in the local tax districts, the attendance has been greater than in the other districts; but in the local tax districts, the schools are not as good as they ought to be. They are handicapped because the local tax funds are hot promptly and fully collected and turned over to the local treasurers according to law. The law makes it the duty of the tax collector to compute the school taxes from the special tax digest furnished him by the s'ecretary of the local school district and to collect and pay over said school taxes to the treasurer of the local tax school district on the order of the county school commissioner. If a sufficiently high rate of taxation were levied by the local board of trustees and fully and promptly collected by the tax collector, the problem of better houses and furniture and longer school terms would, to a great extent, be solved. I believe there would not be much trouble in the collection of the school tax if it embraced the entire county. A number of people in the local tax districts', who now seriously object to the school tax, say they would not object if the whole county were. required to pay the special school tax. I believe to vote local taxation for the entire county would greatly benefit the schools of the county, and I would like very much to have the question of local taxation for school purposes discussed by the grand jury and by the citizens of the entire county. I would be glad, if in the near future, a series of educational rallies to cover the whole
126

,
,
county should be planned and carried to a happy consummation, so that all our people may thoroughly understand this question of local taxation and be aroused to discharge their duty to their children and future generations. Our county newspapers, no doubt, will always be ready to give space for the discussion of this exceedingly important subject. So let us have this question thoroughly discussed in the proposed rallies and in the papers.
Another difficulty in the most successful operation of our schools is the proper consolidation and grading of the schools. In the ideal or model school there is but one grade of pupils to the teacher, and where there is but one grade to the teacher, she can easily teach forty pupils. As there are so many people who do not seem to understand the advantage of properly combining and grading schools, I will here give an illustration which I hope will clearly set forth the superior advantages of a large and well graded school over. those of a small and poorly graded. Let us suppose that there is a section of the county having four schools each embracing 20 pupils, and that each of these 8'chools has in it the first, the second, the third, and' the fourth grade-four grades in each school. It will take one teacher for all her time to teach each of these schools, there being four grades in each and only 20 pupils in each school-80 in the four schools. These four schools may be combined into one, and then each teacher has only one grade, thus giving her four times as much time on each recitation as she had before the consolidation of schools. She can thus accomplish four times as much for the 20 children under her caredo four times as much good as she did before the combination was effected. And now having only one grade, she can easily teach 40 pupils, instead of 20, thuS' doub-
127

ling her amount of work. By this wise consolidation of schools and grades, each teacher can do eight times as much work as she could do originally in her little school of only 20 pupils. By this arrangement, the number of pupils taught has been doubled, and the time of the recitation period multiplied by four. Now, even upon the supposition that we could not increase the number of children by the consolidation of the four schools into one, nothing would be lost if we paid four times as much for the consolidated school as we did for the four separate schools, because we would get at least four times as much work done. But there is no good reason why it should cost four times as much as the four separate schools. The four schools at $45 a month for the teachers would cost $180. The consolidated school, according to our schedule of paying teachers, would cost $150 for the four teachers and not more than $120 for wagons for conveying the children to school, making $270 a month for the consolidated school. Now $270 is just one and a half times $180, and yet on the supposition that only 80 pupils are taught, four times as much work has been done for these 80 pupils as would have been done in the four separate schools. But by using three school wagons, the number of pupils can eas~ly be doubled and yet be taught four times as much as the s'ame teachers could teach them in the four separate scho'ols. So by the consolidation 160 pupils can be taught for 270 dollars a month, which is about $1.68 a month per pupil. In the separate schools 80 pupils are taught for $180 a month, which is $2.25 a month per pupil. We thus see that the entire number of children in the county, by a judicious combination of schools', may receive much better training and at a less cost than by the old one-teacher'school method.
128

Our board of education now has two school wagons
employed in the transportation of children, and from what I have learned, they seem to be doing good work and giving satisfaction to the teachers and patrons concerned. These wagons are furnished with seats for the children and water-proof covers with necesS'ary ventilation, so that the children conveyed to school in these wagons get there' warm and dry and in much better con-

dition for study than those who come through rain along muddy routes. The drivers of these wagons are under no obligations to convey children who live within two miles of the school house. It is to be hoped that this means of transportation will have much to do with the problems of consolidation and grading of the schools. Fewer, but better schools is what we need.

I respectfully call your attention to the fact that the term of office of Hon. J. G. Carter and of Hon. M. M. Hobbs will expire in April next, before the next session of the grand jury.

In behalf of the County Board of Education, I earn-

estly solicit the sympathy and co-operation of the Grand

',Jury and all the good citizens up the educational interests of

of the county in our beloved old

Lbauuirlednins'g.

Below you will find the financial statement of this

office embracing the period between July 1st, 1908, and

January 1st, 1910.

LINCOLN COUNTY.

Dr. W. B. Crawford, C. S. C:

The most conspicuous evidences of progresS' in educational work in this county during the past year are to be found in the heavy increase in enrollment, the higher average of attendance, and the tendency manifested in certain communities to maintain long term schools with private supplementary terms. Aside from these, and the fact that the average salary of our teachers has been materially increaS'ed by a more liberal support from the patrons of many of the schools, I would say that educational conditions in this county are about the same as when I made my last report.
130

Of course the usual amount of repaIrmg has been done to such school buildings as needed it, some of them have been ceiled for the first time, others equipped with suitable furniture, but the improvements first enumerated are the most noteworthy of the year.
Our enrollment for the year just closed shows an increase of nearly fourteen per cent. over that for the previous year, while our average attendance has climbed in a year's time from (49) per cent. to a small fraction less than (60) per cent. These figures repres~nt the totals for both white and colored schools. In the white schools alone, the increase in enrollment was 13 6/7 per cent., and the average attendance for the year was (70) per cent., .as against (60) per cent. shown for the year 1908.
During the year, the county board located one new school for white children near Ohennault, making the total number of public schools in the county 38 of which 22 are white and 16 colored. Nine of the white schools and three of the negro schools, supplemented the public term of five months with private terms ranging from one to four months'.
On the whole these schools are doing fairly good work -some of them I am glad to say have attained a degree of efficiency that is simply excellent for the conditions under which they are operated. And yet when I visit the schools of the county, I am too often impressed with the evidences disclosed that in many of them the work is not as thorough and as S'atisfactory as it should be.
T'here are many good reasons for this condition of affairs. Some of our best teachers are hampered in, their work by an overcrowded school, and a very irregular attendance, making the matter of thorough gradation and proper classification impossible. And again, too many of the school communities rely wholly upon the funds
131

supplied by.the State for the su.pport of their school and are perfectly content to let the 8'chool remain in opera~ tion for only five months -of the year, changing the teacher in many instances every year for another who is willing to take the school merely for what the county board pays it. And by the time the school is reorganized and ready for work under the new teacher, perhaps a whole month of the already brief terin has been consumed in preliminaries. The actual working time of the school is thus abbreviated, and the effectiveness of its work obstructed by th08'e hindrances that always arise from a lack of immediate conformity of pupils to teacher, and teacher to pupils in their new relationship.
Another serious drawback to the school interests in this county, and in other counties of which I have knowledge is the lack of care which certain communities show in selecting their teachers. Some of them are satisfied to take a teacher with any grade of license, and with that apathy on the parLof patrons which naturally aris'es from contributing nothing to the support of the school, it is not surprising that we have some teachers with little aptitude for the work they have undertaken.
It is my opinion that efficiency in our county schools will never be attained until some system of school taxa. tion is' adopted, preferably by the county, than by local districts. Under the system now in vogue, the burden of . the support of the long term schools falls upon the shoulders of a few public spirited men who take upon themselves the responsibility of paying the teacher, and the balance of the community takes very little interest in the school which comes from a direct contribution to its support would lend every effort to further its efficiency.

LOWNDES COUNTY.

C. L. Smith,C. S. C.

To the Honorable Grand Jury:
Gentlemen: In accordance with the -requirements of law, I have the honor to submit to your honorable body the report of the County School Commissioner of Lowndes county for the year 1909. This report, however, does not include the city of Valdosta, as the city schools are operated under a separate system, and the city superintendent makes his report direct to the' State School Commissioner.
The Board of Education of this county is composed of the Hon. E. B. S. Denmark, President; J. G. Cranford, Vice-President ;J. C. King, W. H. McKinnon and C. G. Scruggs. The terms of Mr. King, Mr. Crawford and Mr. Denmark expire in August, and their places are to be filled by this Grand Jury. They are very faithful and efficient officers. The County School Commissioner has had their support and co-operation at all times, and much of the success of the school system is due to them and their wise counsel.
There were thirty-three white schools and twentythree colored schools operated in the county during the year 1909. In these schools' forty-six white teachers were employed, at an average monthly salary of $46.66; and twenty-six colored teachers, at an average monthly salary of $15.93. The average monthly' cost for white pupils was $1.28 as against 21c for the colored pupils. It is reasonable to suppose that we secured more competent white teachers fhan colored; the salaries' paid would indicate this, and it is true, though, it might be stated just as truthfully that we secured the very best teachers, both white and colored that we could get, and the reason we did not secure any better colored teachers was because

they were not available and the reason we did not pay them any better salaries was becaus'e their services was not worth any more than we paid. We had one colored teacher whose services we considered worth $35 per month and we paid him, several whom we paid $25, and there were a few whom we paid only $15.00. The white grade teachers in Low.ndes county must hold first grade license; very few of the colored teachers can make third grade license. In securing teachers' for the colored schools, we simply have to choose from among the best, and even these are incompetent. If we were to be as exacting with the colored teachers as we are with the whites, very nearly all of the colored schools would close for the want of teachers who could. stand satisfactory examinations', but, we deem it best to give the colored people schools, even if the teachers are, to some extent, incompetent.
This county is divided into twenty-nine school districts, with an average area of sixteen square miles, so that the schools are, upon an average, not more than four miles apart; some are much closer together, and this placeS' every boy and girl in the county within easy reach of a school, where t~e school is open seven months in a year, and the school absolutely free both for the rich and poor. There is, therefore, no excuse for the children of Lowndes county to grow up in ignorance; and yet, only 84 per cent. of the white children of school age and 69 per cent. of the colored children of school age entered our public schools during the year just past; and of those that entered, the average attendance was only 53 per cent. for the whites and 44 per cent. for the colored. The State has' furnished public schools for its children, and, by a wise provision in its statutes, it has stated that these schools shall be free to all of the children of the State.
134

r.L'!he State having done this, has a right to demand that her peopl~ be educated and that no child shall grow up in ignorance and become a burden on t~e public treasury.
The Board of Education has encouraged the building of school houses in contributing one-half of the cost of the building, where the title to the land is vested in the Board of Education and the houses built according to plans furnished by the Board. This plan has proven very popular, and, where seven years ago the Board of Education did not own a dollar's worth of school property, we now have a good, comfortable school house, furnished with patent desks' and other necessary equipment, owned by the Board of Education, in almost every community. We have more than $2,000 books in our libraries; our school term has been lengthened from five to seven months, our teachers receive fairly good salaries and are paid promptly at the end of each month, without the necessity of borrowing money.
~he present County School Commissioner has been in office a little more than seven years. During that time he has seen wonderful improvement in school work in this county. When he went in office very few of the school houses were suitable for school purposes; most of the houses were old, unceiled and full of cracks and holes; the school furniture consisted of home-made benches, many of them without backs, and a few rude desks. The Board of Education did not own a single school house; the school term was only fi~e months; the teachers poorly paid, and the patrons paying a large portion of that; the schools were operated eight months' be- , fore the money was received from the State, and the County Board of Education had to borrow money in order to pay the teachers promptly. These conditions have all been changed. A comparative statement, show-
'135

ing the growth of the schools of Lowndes county during the past seven years will perhaps be of considerable interest; I have, therefore, made this comparative state~ ment, which is as follows:

You will see that during the year 1902 the Board of , Education borrowed the sum of $6,982.51, and paid out the sum of $336 in interest, in order to pay the teachers ,promptly. By a system of good business management on ,the part of the Board of Education during the past seven years, the Board has 'accumulated the sum of $7,487.15, and carried over that sum from last year, which the Board has used in paying her teachers at the end of each month, as soon as the teachers bring in their reports. In this way we have been able to secure the very; best
a teachers and to hold them for a much longer time than
most counties. We have number of teachers who have been teaching in the s'ame school for the past three or four years. 85 per cent. of our teachers hold first grade license, and 43 per cent. have received normal training. Our corps of teachers for the past year has been the '<Tp.ry best in the history of education in this county. and
136'

r
compare favorably with any other teachers in the State. With good school houses and equipment, and our tnances in good ~ndition, much more should be accomplished i:J;]. the next few yearS' than has been accomplished in the past.
Only three districts in the county level local tax, namely, Lake Park, Hahira and Valdosta. All three of these Districts have long term schools and the plan has worked very successfully. Since Hahira has inaugurated this system, she has' built a ~chool building costing more. than $10,000, and now employs five teachers in her school, where they formerly had only two, and the town has grown in proportion. Her example is worthy of emulation.
In order that the teaching of agriculture and domestic science in our schools may be made more vital and more practical, we are undertaking this year to encourage the. boys' and girlS' of the county to put what they learn in the schools into practice on the farms, and are trying to get a number of boys to plant an acre of corn or cotton and to cultivate it after the most approved methods; and the girls to do work in cooking, sewing, flower culture, poultry raising, etc., and, in order to do this, we are offering a number of prizes, both to the boys and to the girls, and expect this fall, sometime in October, to hold a boys and girls fair, at which fair the boys and girlS' will exhibit their products.
We deem it worth while to get one boy or girl to form a good purpose and to work persistently towards its accomplishment, and, if we can induce a number of boys and girls strive for the same goal in a spirit of friendly rivalry, which stimulates observation, study, industry and economy; then the -good results will be increased many fold. The object of our boyS' and girls work is to
137

secure better methods and to create a bond of sympathy between the home and the school, and, if we can get the co-operation of the people in this movement, much good can be accomplished.
I sub~it herewith all of my books and vouchers and such financial statement, I trust, as will enable you to see that the' money for the support of education has been faithfully and judiciously expended.
Any suggestions' or recommendations made by your -body will be appreciated, both by the County School Com~ missioner and by the Board of Education.

POPULATION.
The school population of Macon county is as follows: White 1,091, negroes 2,883.

SCHOOL ENROLLMENT.
The total enrollment in the public schools for the year 1909 was: White 906, negroes 2,128. The average en~ rollment was white, 83 per cent.; negroeS' 73 per cent. The average daily attendance was about as follows: White 75 per cent. of enrollment or 63 per cent. of the children in the county. Negroes 60 per cent of enrollment or 43 per cent. of the children in the county. By comparison with the census we find that there were only 185 white children in the county of school age who did not attend our schools last year. Of this number some
138

were attending schools and colleges outside of the county. More than 85 per cent. of our white children attended school last year. The aver!lge attendance was not as large .as we wish but 63 per cent. for six months would make an average of 3%, months for every white child in the county. If we can keep this average up to this standard and furnish the proper instruction our children will get the elements of an English education.
Our schools made decided progress in many ways during the year 1909. We have good comfortable houses' for. almost all of our white schools. We built three houses for our white schools during last year at a cost of $1,600 'and repaired four at a cost of $421.00.
All of our white schools are furnished with up-to-date desks. We put in four libraries during this year. We built three houses' for negro schools and furnished two . with new desks. We have reasons for rejoicing at our success but still our schools are not what we want them to be.
We have three local tax city systems and two local tax district systems. Are preparing to introduce into our schools'in 1910 industrial features and thus relate school life to the life of the child and the citizen. Our city and district systems have nine months each year with nine and ten grades. Our other schools run six months each year.
With the new life our schools have taken on_and the new features added to our schools we hope that within a few years our county will come to the front in educational circles.

MJ\iDISON COUNTY.

J. A. Griffeth, C. S. C.

Report to Grand Jury.
Gentlemen: Complying with law, I herewith submit my narrative report of school operations of Madison county for the year ending December 31, 1909.
ATTENDANCE.
The school census of 1908 shows that we have three thousand and sixty (3,060) white children in Madison county under common school age, and 1,676 colored. The teacher'.s reports for 1909 show that 2,750 white children were enrolled during that year, or 90 per cent. of the school population. This will, I hope, call your attention to the fact that 310 white children, under school age, did not even enter school during the year 1909. However, this is an increase over the enrollment for 1908. The average attendance in 1909 was, whites 1,579, or 571;2 per cenL of the enrollment, showing that the children who enter school go but little over half the time. This, though, is also an increase of average attendace over 1908. The per cent. of enrollment of colored children is almost as good as that of the whites, but the average per cent. of attendance is not near as good.

INTEREST_
A farmer said to me a few days ago that farmers are taking more interest in schools now than he ever knew before. I think he is correct. During 1909 over nine thousand dollars were paid out by the patrons for school purposes, against four thousand :five hundred (estimated) in 1908. This, together with an increase in enrollment and average attendance, shows that our people to some extent are waking up on educational lines.
140

TEACHERS.
It can no longer be said truthfully that country people have to send their children to town schools in order to get the benefit of well-trained teachers' work. When we consider that in our schools, outside of incorporated towns, in 1909 were employed ten teachers who are graduates of reputable colleges, and seven first-grade teachers who have had college training, but are not graduates. We have very few second grade teach~rs employed at present, and a few third grade teachers, mostly assistants. The improvement jn this line is encouraging.
BUILDINGS.
We have, with one exception, comfortable school houses in every school district in the county, some of which are good, modern houses. We have Dot painted all the houses yet. There are twenty-two houses owned by the Board of Education, valued at $12,050. The people in most districts are to be commended for their liberal aid in the erection of new buildings, and repairing old ones.
SCHOOL TERM.
There is not a single white school in the county that does not supplement the public school fund in some way. The public term proper is six months, but four schools were in session during 1909 nine months, fourteen eight months, and the remaining twelve six months only. Only two colored schools had eight months term.
CONSOLIDATION.
We have complied with the McMichael Act providing for the consolidation of schools, and with one exception, new buildings have been erected. In some districts new
141

buildings were not needed; in such districts old ones have

been adde,d to and improved and are now spacious and

comfortable.



LOCAL TAX.

Eight districts have voted a local tax, two having voted it this year, 1910. Others are petitioning for elections. I believe at the present rate of progress, in a few years M~dison county can boast of a system of schools well financed, well taught and from which satisfactory results will come.
INSTITUTES.

Regular monthly institutes were held during the school term. The annual institute held'in June was conducted by Prof. J. W. Marion, of Cornelia, Ga. These institutes are well attended and result in much good to both teachers and pupils.

GENERAL CONDITIONS.

School conditions in this county are favorable and encouraging, notwithstanding the dissension and dissatisfaction in some communities a few year~ ago, caused by consolidation of schools.
Now, gentlemen, as one interested in the children of this county, and having spent the greater part of my life in their interest, I appeal to you, a body of representative men from different communities, to press the school interests in your respective communities; let's invest more money in education, proper education, thereby improving our citizenship, reducing the number of criminals and relieving the tax payers of paying taxes to punis~ the violators.

McINTOSH COUNTY.

C. M. Tyson, C. S. C.

EXTRACT
from the rl:lport of the County School Commissioner of McIntosh county, Georgia, to the Grand Jury in 1909. After dealing with matters of figures and comparisons of previous years with the last year, he says as follows:
The above all refers to the past, but the present finds quite a change in matters pertaining to the schools and I beg to call your attention to certain matters of vital importance.
Until a year or so ago, the county'paid the interest on teacher's salaries and funds necessary for running the schools, ,amounting from. $150 to $200. This the county no longer does. In addiiton to this the convict hire amounting from $800 to $1,000 was cut in half recently and half given to roads, but on account of the recent law, this hire will be a thing of the past and neither schools nor roads will get any benefit from this source in future. Still these altered conditions mean less to the school fund of ~bout $1,000 at least, with absolutely nothing in their place.
There has been many things brought before the Board that has consumed much time and labor, such as quarrels between patrons and teachers, and quarrels between patrons. There is a disposition to ask for a school for every settlement where there are enough pupil.; to make up a school regardless of the fact that they have a school not over three miles away, and in most cases to insist that the Board assist in building the school house.
Under the course of study adopted by the State commencing January 1, 1909, if you will examine it, and I herewith attach a copy for that purpose, you will find that if a teacher had a school of 14 pupils divided into
143

seven grades, giving two to a grade, and should give ten minutes per grade per recitation (allowing one hour for dinner and recess) it would take from 8 a. m. until 6 p. m. for the recitations alone, or if fifteen minutes were given it would take from 6 a. m. until 7 p. m., allowing one hour only, and this would mean one continual grind without interruption. The consequence is that the schools as they now are are not, and cannot in the very nature of things give satisfaction. By alternating certain studies, two teachers per school will, in most cases, give satisfaction. When I say satisfaction, I mean the child will be benefitted, the teachers will be able to do justice to the children, as well as themselves, and the patrons will, by results, be forced to be content. Instead of making more schools, the schools ought to be reduced, and good, substantial two and three-room buildings take the place of the present school buildings. In addition to the present poor school houses there is in the great majority of cases very little or no furniture, such as seats and desks and blackboards. The Board of Education is powerless to
remedy all this, just like the Boards of Education of any
county in the State, where they have only the funds app.ropriated by the State to depend upon. This county has never, outside of paying interest on the funds borrowed, assisted the Board of Education, nor has it ever levied a tax for school purposes, and it is absolutely necessary for it to do something on this line, if she proposes to stand with her sister coun~ies in educating the children. The appropriation for the year 1909 from the State will be $6,213.84, which is hardly enough to run the present schools and does not allow anything for improv~ ing, or building, or furnishing, or any other expense. And if graded schools are to be established to teach the course ad<>pted by the State, then it is necessary that
144

1
funds be raised so as to increase the size of the school houses and to help pay for a certain number of additional teachers. Under Section 5909 of the Code, which is a part of the Constitution, authority may be granted to establish and maintain public schools by taxation, to take effect after submitting the question to the voters and approved by them.
Knowing the needs of the situation, I think that the matter ought to be submitted to the voters of the county by the several corporate authorities, that is to say, the authorities of Darien submitting the matter to the voters of Darien and the authorities of the county submitting the matter to the voters of the county outside of Darien or of the whole county. (I have put it two ways because the city of Darien is in one school district and Darien has a High School, while under the provision of the Constitution such a tax is only supposed to be used for the common schools and is unconstitutional so far as the High School is concerned, and the people of Darien may prefer to vote for the tax if all the tax raised in Darien is to be expended on the schools of Darien, though I believe that the proper and more satisfactory course for Darien is to get a public s~chool system for Darien by Legislative enactment, which would eliminate all High School questions and leave the balance of the county on the common school basis.)
The Board is endeavoring to change the time of the running of the schools to the months of October, November, December, January and February, and if possible the month of March, thereby giving a continuous session of six months, and to thatend the schools of the county commencing with 1909 will be taught a shorter time in the spring. This will be in accord with the interests of the pupils, many of whom are put into the fields by the

first of April and thereby lose the advantages that they should have, besides the State examinations for the seventh grade pupils take place during the last of March arid are supposed to be when they are about to finish, instead of just beginning, as has been the case with nearly all the schools in the county for several years past, as far as this county is concerned.
While the State has been increasing its appropriation some each year, this county cannot expect and will not get anything like the increase that other counties generally will get, because this county has not materially increased in school population in the last ten years, as can be seen by the appropriation of $6,213.34 for 1909, and I fear it never will until our schools are in better condition and our school conditions upon a better basis. The very appearance of the county school houses are enough to keep any man who loves his children from coming to the county, unless he has means and can educate his children independently. Imagine a room with one teacher and 25 or 30 pupils seated upon benches, no desks, openings in the floor and sides of the building, poorly heated and lighted, and this one teacher struggling through the seven grade course, giving each one as much attention as possible, but of necessity very little, and there is not a man upon this Grand Jury that would send his child there unless force of circumstances absolutely compelled it. Of course paint on a school house is a rare thing and may not be considered necessary, but it is as well as everything that goes to elevate the taste is a big thing in the education of the child. Good, neat buildings and nice grounds go far towards eliminating filthy children and increasing respectability and good citizenship.
In this my report, I have tried to put things just as they are, believing that the first and greatest duty that


we are under is to look to the uplifting of the future citizens 9f our count)', for in them lies the future weal or w'oe of the county.
Yours very respectfully, CHARLES M. T'YSON,
C. S. C. McIntosh County.

MERIWETHER COUNTY.

W. S. Howell, C. S. C.

In our county we have 3,000 white school children and 6,020 colored. We have 46 white schools and 45 colored. In 1909 our schools were in operation seven months all over the county. Several schools run for eight and nine months. We have six school districts that levy the' local tax; and in each of the districts that levy the local tax there is marked improveinent in the schools. During the year 1909 the city of Greenville. began the erection of a splendid school building at a cost of $8,500.00, and has completed the building. We have several good school buildings in the county, but there is room for great im'provement in our school houses.
We can point with pride to our teachers. They are well prepared for the work in which they are eng'aged and are doing a noble work.
In 1884 there was not a foot of railroad in Meriwether county; now there are few counties in the State that have so many miles. Several years ago there were nearly a hundred miles of railroad built in our county within a little more than a year. The building of these railroads built up new towns and communities and new schools. We intend to keep good schools for our growing population.
147

During the year just passed Ex-Governor Terrell made the county a splendid present by giving to each of 25 schools a library of 50 volumes each, of carefully selected books.
In the near future we think there will be great pro.gress made in the cause of education in Meriwether.
Respectfully submitted, W. S. HOWELL,.

MILLER COUNTY.

B. B. Bush, C. S. C.

To the Honorable Grand Jury of Miller County':

In. pursuance of the statute, I herewith make this my annual report of the County School Commissionership at the April term of Miller Superior Court.
Twas elected to fill the unexpired term of Hon. W. I. Greer, who resigned, on the 24th of January, 1910, since which time I have undertaken the duties of my office with enthusiasm and I believe with some degree of. success. There was turned over to me by the acting Commissioner the sum of $3,350.35. I have received from the State, since that time, the sum of $4,140.20, and $700.00, making a total of $8,190.55 received by me. I have paid up all the teachers promptly which has been a source of much satisfaction to me, and have paid about all the back payments that Sh9Uld have been paid heretofore, leaving in the First National Bank of this place to the credit of the County School Commissioner the sum of approximately $3,700.00.
It is my purpose to make some marked improvements in the condition of several of the school houses in the

148

county during this year and to build a good school house at Bait, known as the Bellview school, some time this summer, the county authorities having agreed to give $100 toward the erection of the same with the understanding that the school is to be used as a court house for the conduct of the legal business of the 1029th district. This plan should be and is entirely satisfactory to all concerned for the reason that the Justice Court convenes at that place on the second Saturday in each month, which is not a school day.
We have in the county twenty-three white schools, and all are in operation or have been with the exception of the McCormack school, and it is my desire to ha;ve a good school there ere long. There are fifteen negro schools, six being in operation. I am advocating good teachers for the negroes as well as the whites, for I do not feel that it is right for the employees and parents of negro children to be deprived of their services when they are needed if they are in school, being taught by one who knows absolutely nothing, and learning nothing. It is better that they be of benefit to somebody. It will give me pleasure, in this connection, to see every school in the county taught and to have every child in the county of school age in school; as our percentage of intelligence will increase, and by swelling the rolls of our schools we will get larger appropriations from the State government. I am fearful the parents of children in this county have not fully realized the need of a good education as they should and I earnestly solicit the help of all interested in education toward the end of improving our people in an educational way.
I have had the pleasure of visiting every white school in the county since my incumbency in office and I find the schools in fairly good condition and the children, taken
149

as a whole, interested in their work. In order to arouse a greater degree of enthusiasm I have arranged, with the help of the schools, to have a County Oratorical Contest in which all the white schools will participate by having a boy and girl representative from each school Medals will be given by your Commission and other prizes by the merchants of Colquitt which will be an incentive to greater effort on the part of the participants. if the patrons of each school will turn out on the 13th of May, when the Contest takes place, and back up their schools, we will have the biggest educational rally Miller has ever had and the patrons of each school will take a greater pride in their school and more interest will be manifested in the schools than ever before. An added attraction will be a big dinner on the ground, which should bring a good many to see what we are doing.
I beg to call your attention to the fact that the terms of office of Messrs. Janie I vey, A. 1. Addison and W. B. Shepard expire at this term of the court and I desire to offer this suggestion to you in selecting their successors. By all means, place men on the Board who are willing to work for the educational advancement of the people of Miller county-men who are aliv~ to the interests of the children of the county and men who appreciate the advantages of an education. In this connection, I desire to say that my association with the gentlemen whose terms expire have been most pleasant, and I desire to thank them for the help so kindly given me. There are approximately 599 boys in school and 675 girls. Of this amount only 362 are negroes.
Respectfully,
BILLIE B. BUSH,

MITCHELL COUNTY.

J. H. Powell, C. S. C.

I am led to report, that the interest in education in

Mitchell county for the year 1909 was still encouraging,

keeping a hopeful future in large anticipation. The en-

rollment for the year 1909 was much greater than for

any previous year, and as compared to 1908, we enrolled

225 more pupils, giving us an increased average attend-

ance of 223 pupils, in spite of numerous causes to hinder,

whooping cough, measles, etc.

Our school term for the year 1909 was seven months,

beginning in a majority of instances on the firstor near

the first day of November, 1908, many of the schools sus-

pending for a time to suit the convenience of the various

communities, when thought best for the interest of the

children and for the school, by the Board of Trustees

and the teacher.

We have only two local tax districts in our county as

yet. In these districts we have had some little friction,

which has caused other districts to hesitate for a while.

We are still very hopeful that other districts will, during

the year 1910, get in line and will vote for local tax.

In conclusion I would say that the educational congi-

tions in our county are, generally, progressive and en-

couraging.

Respec~fully,

MONTGOMERY COUNTY. A. B. Hutcheson, C. S. C.
To the Grood Jury, Montgomery County. Gentlemen: At this term of the Superior Court it becomes my duty, as County School Commissioner. to
151

submit a report to your Honorable body showing the condition and management of the public schools of Montgomery county for the year 1909.
The school term last year was seven months, and very near every white school in the county was taught the full time and several of the colored schools took advantage of the entire term.
During the year there were enrolled in the schools of the county 2,990 white pupils and 1,284 colored pupils, making a total of 4,274 pupils, which is an increase over the roll of 1908 of 349 and 884 more than were enrolled during the year 1907.
During the last week in October, last, a teachers' institute was held in Mt. Vernon and each white teacher employed to teach in the schools of the county were required to attend the full time. On the next Monday following the institute all the white schools of the county opened. The teachers going direct from the institute to the school room were able to put into practice. such ideas, methods, etc., as were given them during the week of the institute.
To enable the Board of Education to operate the schools of the county seven months they recommended a tax levy of $2.50 on each $1,000 worth of property returned for taxation in the county:
On another sheet I am handing you an itemized account showing all the money received by me, as County School Commissioner, during the year 1909, and amounts paid out by me. In this stateJIlent I show theappropriation fixed for each school in the county, the salary and total amounts paid each teacher,. and the amounts paid out for other purposes during the year.

Asking a careful consideration of this report and your most hearty co-operation in the school affairs of the county, I am,
Yours most respectfully, A. B. HUTCHESON,

SCHOOL OPERATIONS.
I hardly think I could do better than to refer you to my report to the Grand Jury. of spring term of Superior Court of 1909 for facts that still are real stubborn obstacles to our school affairs. However, we are making some progress. We are still striving to perfect the system Qutlined in that report.
It is gratifying to note that a number of the school districts have awakened to the fact that our contention that consolidation and centralization of schools is a necessary element in the solution of our school problems, is correct.
During the past year the citizens of Rutledge have completed a splendid school building at a cost to the town of $10,000. The county Board of Education contributed toward the equipment $'1,000, and now the town has .an excellently graded system of schools covering a course of study comprising ten grades, taught by au experienced male principal and four first-class assistants. Verily it is a school of which this enterprising little town may well be proud. My only adverse criticism is that the course
153

of ten grades is rather heavy for the teaching force. I have contended, and still think, that more thorough work could be done with nine grades for "the present. The pupils who have hitherto been hieing them off to distant High Schools and Colleges have as good opportunity for securing as good advantages right at home, and this is as it should be. The county Board of Education has been liberal in bringing about this greatly-to-be-desired result. We here have facilities to accommodate all the High School pupils in a district embracing one-fifth of the territory of our county. I sincerely trust that the citizens of this district will avail themselves of this opportunity to give their children an advanced couJ;:se in this school, rather than to contend for such studies to be taught in thE:l district schools employing only one or two teachers, thus hindering the efficiency of the work that belongs to the latter.
A storm last spring rendered possible what persuas-
ion and logic before had failed to accomplish. It demol-
ished one of our rather antiquated school buildings in District No.4, thereby necessitating another building. We had been advising the good people in that community to build another house for some time. The school enrolls about fifty pupils. They have been striving to keep up a" school there with one teacher ~or several years, with
indifferent success. It is simply impossible to do thor-
ough work in this school under the conditions. Now we have a new modern two-room school building there~an ornament to the community and an inspiration to pupils and teachers. Those people cannot help but strut a little with pride whenever you mention their new school house. This school is now presided over by two excellent teachers. The enrollment last month was 47. The cost of the building to the county was less than $800, and to the
154

community about seven hundred dollars, all told. It is the property of the Board of Education. We may expect great good from this school.
There are now applications before the Board from three other communities for aid in this way.We have already agreed to aid in the erection of two, and the third will most probably get what it needs.
THE WAY TO GET AID.
In one community that now has poor school facilities, one man has agreed to furnish a site of two acres, five hundred dollars in cash and to haul all materials to the site if the Board will complete and own the building. With that sort of spirit of help we could erect, without increasing our tax rate, at least three new two-room buildings a year.
AN IMPORTANT MATTER.
With increase in length of term comes increase' of work for the scho.ol officials. This is especially true of the office now occupied and soon to be vacated by your humble servant. In fact so great has been the demand upon his time that this individual finds it impossible to do the duties of'the office efficiently in connection with any other business, and since the salary of a County School Commissioner is fixed by law at the meagre sum of $3.00 per day, he bearing his own expenses, he feels that the compensation would not warrant his giving his entire time to the work for the sum of $939.00, hence he has tendered his resignation, feeling that it would be unjust to. the people of the county to hold to the position because his term has not yet expired, and at the same time withhold the time and attention that efficient supervision of the schools necessitates. Expecting to have no further in-
155

terest in the schools of Morgan county than any other

patriotic private citizen should have, except such as may

have arisen from a service of ten years of honest effort

to build up an efficient system of schools for the county, I

will boldly assert that no man can do justice to the schools

of this county without giving it his entire time and faith- .

ful, persistent service, and our people should demand it

of the one who undertakes the job; but they should not

expect him to make his living at some other business and

serve t.hepublic simply for the honor of having the longesttitle of any of the county's servants and the poores't

pay. I will add without fear of deviating from the

truth that this office is second to none of the county offices in importance, responsibility, or possibilities for the pub-

lic good. Then why lower its dignity and discourage

men of ability from aspiring to it, by fixing the salary of

the County School Commissioner lowest of any officer in

the court house except the janitor7

1 could write you a very lengthy report, every item

fraught with interest, but there must be a limit, sol

hasten to a conclusion.

After another year's experience the Board has de-

cided to run the schools again upon the same basi.s as last

year. A seven month's term seems to meet general ap-

proval. Statistics show a steady increase in enrollment

and attendance under this plan, as witness the following:

The school census of 1908 shows that Morgan county

has between the ages of 6 and 18 years, white pupils as

follows:

Males. Females. Total. Av. Att.

773 Enrolled in 1908___ 758

669 1,442, 644 1,402 753

Enrolled in 1909___ 800

671 1,471 799.11

156

Thus showing an increase of white population and twenty-nine more white pupils in the schools in 1909 than were children of school age in the county in 1908, and an increase of enrollment in 1909 over 1908 of 69 pupils. The average attendance also shows an increase of 46.11 pupils.
The census of 1908 shows that there were in the county of school age of colored pupils ~

Males. 1,799 Enrolled in 1908___ 1,312 Enrolled in 1909___ 1,327

Females. 1,856 1,515 1,594

Total. Av. Att. 3,655 2,827 . 1,217 2,921 1,398.57.

The above shows an increase of enrollment over 1908 of 94 pupils, and an increase in attendance of 181.57 pupils for the year 1909, over that of 1908.
The above is very assuring evidence in favor of our present system. But our work is hardly commenced. The above mapifests a general and increasing interest in education, but we are yet hindered principally by the' necessity of continuing schools under the management of a single teacher. Irregular attendance still mars the efficiency of the work of even the most experienced and best teachers, what must it do for the beginners andin~ experienced! How to aid the latter and to remedy the former are problems that must occupy the thoughts and consume the time of my successor.
As I am soon to give over this office to another, I ask a very careful examination of the records and vouchers that I may have to submit, with this report.
I have the honor to be, gentlemen,
Your obedient servant, . F. L. FLORENCE,

MURRAY COUNTY.

W. D. Gregory, C. S. C.

Our annual report for the past school year has been

sent in to the State Department of Education. The total

enrollment of 2,555 and the average attendance of 1,444

exceeds that of any previous, year.

An increasing interest is being manifested in matters

educational in practically every section of the county.

Better school buildings aTe desired, better teachers are

in many instances demanded, and more regularity is ob-

served in attendance of pupils than were before.

Early in January every school in the county was in

operation, but to furnish a full corps of teachers it was

necessary to employ quite a number who had no experi-

ence in teaching.

Three school districts, Chatsworth, No.4, Eton, No.5,

and River Bend, No. 17, voted local taxation last year.

Five new school buildings were erected in the county

last year at an aggregate cost of $7,000, il! the following

wards: Eton, Waterhouse, Tennga, Elrod's and Ala-

culsy.

'

The 1909-10 term opened last November, and although

the winter has been unusually cold the attendance has-

been remarkably good.

The schools having high school departments or teach-

ing high school subjects are: Eton, Prof. A. H. Nanney,

principal; W. L. Henry and Misses Effie Lynch and Paul-

ine Keith, assistants. Chatsworth, Miss Lula Gladden,

principal; W. A. Hatfield and Miss Josie Waters, assist-

ants. Lucy Hill Institute, Prof. Chas. H. Shriner, prin-

cipal; Rev. G. B. Barton and Miss Frankie Anderson,

assistants. Sumach, Prof. F. C. Love, principal; Miss

Susie Hickett, assistant. Cohutta Spring, Prof. W. M.

Rogers, principal; Miss Lucy Vvaters, assistant. Ham-

158

hurst, Prof. W. D. Willbanks, principal; Miss Julia Humphries, assistant. Tennga, Miss Florida Harris, principal; Miss Nora Woods, assistant.
The aggregate enrollment in these schools is 782 at present time. These schools are all doing excellent work and they reflect credit on our county. We also have in the smaller schools some experienced teachers who are doing good work.
RETROSPECTIVE.
In reviewing our school work, covering a period of ten years, we find that in 1900 we had only three teachers, Profs. C. H. Shriner, W. D. Wilbanks and Miss Lula Gladden, who are now teaching in the county. We have, however, quite a number who' have been with us for a number of years.
Ten years ago salaries of teachers ranged from seventeen to twenty-five dollars per month. Salaries are now from twenty-five _to forty dollars per month.
The total of State funds received from 1900 to 1909, inclusive, was $67,978.00. Total amount paid teachers, $59,579.00. For administration, incidentals and institutes, $4,200. Buildings and equipment, $3,700. Taking census in 1903 and 1908, $210. Balance on hand J anuary 1, 1910, $27l.
During the past ten years fifteen school buildings have been erected in the county, aggregating nearly fifteen thousand dollars.
Now, while conditions in the county are not altogether ideal, yet on the whole we are making substantial progress and the prospects for the future are encouraging.

NEWTON COUNTY.

A. H. Foster, C. S. C.

In the closing paragraphs of my report for the school year ending December 31, 1908, appears the following statement:
"Though gratified at the liberality of patrons and trustees in supplementing the public funds, we are not satisfied with our present system, for a better one was made possible when the McMichael Bill became a law. In short, a tuition or subscription system of supplementary support and maintenance of schools, however good, is in this day of progress an anachronism.
"We confidently believe that our next election will result in a victory for local taxation, and that thereby the county will still further actualize the possibilities of our schools."
This forecast was verified on November 30th, when local taxation on a county-wide basis was carried by a safe majority. The Board of Education has fixed the rate at two mills.
As our campaign was unique in some respects, perhaps a brief review of ways and means will not prove out of place:

First, an address to the voters of the county, prepared by the President of the Board of Education in behalf of the'County Board, was mailed to each voter in the county. This address calling attention to the need of better schools, and the necessity of local taxation as a means thereto, prepared the way for more definite data to follow. Petitions were then placed in the hands of "live" school men in each community in order to secure the sign(itures of the required one-fourth of the registered voters. The President of the Board of Education and

160

the Oounty School Oommissioner also worked assiduously in securing names to petitions.
After about a month's work, less than one-half the required number of names having been secured in this manner, the Oounty School Commissioner mailed out a statement to each voter, calling attention to the necessity of a longer term, and giving other pertinent data. This circular statement was accompanied by a "multigraph" letter (with name filled in, in each instance, to give the effect of a personal letter), and a postal card addressed to the Oounty School Commissioner and reading as follows:
"If you wish to ask any question with reference to . the pending measure, use the space on the other side
set apart for correspondence. We will gladly answer any question you may ask. Of course, your signing this card in no wise commits you as to how you will . vote in the forthcoming election.

"To the Honorable Ordinary of Newton County, Georgia:

I hereby join in petitioning you to fix November 30,

1909, as the date for county election to supplement the

public school funds, under provisions of the McMichael

Act."

Name

_

DistricL

_

We found the return card plan very helpful, as in this way, every voter was reached, and in many instances, after carefully reading the literature enclosed, voters who had failed to sign the petition, signed and returned the cards. In fact, the required number of names could not have been secured by depending upon the petitions alone.
161

6-8. C.

Of course, the cause was presented by the County School Commissioner at various public gatherings, and assisted by the President of the Board of Education he filled engagements at several school houses, but it was a difficult matter to get good audiencGs.
A few days before the election the County School Commissioner tacked up along the various public roads in the county at conspicuous places large placards, reading: .' ,Vote for better schools on November 30th. Our boys and girls throughout the county are entitled to the same opportunities afforded by the town schools. Let's give them a better chance."
Several weeks before the election a committee was appointed in each district to determine as far as practicable how each voter stood on the question; and as a help in the work each com:rpitteeman was supplied with a copy of the official registration list of his district. The County School Commissioner, by keeping in close touch with the situation-was able to check off a fairly accurate list of voters favoring local taxation. Two days before the election, to each one of this list was mailed a personal letter calling attention to the importance of voters who favored the measure, putting themselves to some inconvenience (if necessary) to go to the polls. A number of voters ;ubsequently remarked that they would have overlooked the date had their attention not been called thereto by these letters, which reached them just a day before the election.
CONSOLIDATION.
Two of our two-teacher schools were consolidated last fall, and a modern two-story building erected at a suitable intermediate point. A wagon route was established for transportation of pupils living beyond the two-mile
162

limit. Heretofore, neither of the two schools has had a satisfactory average longer than about three months spring term, and hence the work of necessity largely un~ graded; the consolidated school, the product of these two, is well graded, and is on the long-term basis.
As four transportation wagons were already being used to carry pupils to consolidated schools, this last one makes a total of five. We shall probably have another consolidated school before the opening of next session.
TEACHERS.
The personnel of our corps of teachers the past ses~ sion, has measured up to the high standard we have had heretofore, and there have been abundant evidences_of the true "teacher spirit" in their work.
Regular monthly teachers' meetings were held during the school year. The work for each meeting was made as practical as possible, and consisted almost exclusively of "round table" discussion bearing on the every day work.
IMPROVEMENT WORK.
Considerable attention. was again given the past year to improving school grounds-the most noteworthy work being the transformation of the rocky hill-side at the Victory school into a veritable" terraced park."
LIBRARIES.
The Traveling Library system of the dounty has, as heretofore, proved a very helpful auxiliary to the regular class-room work. (For further data, see last year's report).
GENERAL OUTLOOK.
With several thousand dollars local tax funds available for next session, we shall have a seven months free
163

term, and perhaps pay for one-half of the time any school may continue in aession over and above the seven months; teachers' salaries will be made better; more liberal equipment can be provided, and in every way our schools inspired to further progress.

PICKENS COUNTY.

J. H. Little. C. S. C.

To the Grand Jury, Pickens County.

I beg to submit the following report of the operation of the public schools of said county for the year 1909.
During the year there were employed forty-one white, and two colored teachers, making a total of forty-three teachers employed by the county. Of these one held a State license, twelve a first grade license, sixteen a second grade license and fourteen a third grade license.
Twenty-one hundred and thirty-five pupils were enrolled in the public schools of the countY,exclusive of Marble Hill District, which is being operated under a local system. The' average attendance of pupils, was eleven hundred and twenty-four.
During the year there were no new school houses built. We have in the county thirty schoolhouses, estimated to be worth $21,280:
It will afford me pleasure to assist your body, or such committee as you may select, in making a thorough examination of all matters pertaining to the operation of our schools, the keeping of the records in my office, or any
164

matter connected therewith. I cordially invite your special investigation.
Respectfully submitted, J. H. LITTLE,
C. S. C. Pickens County.

PIKE COUNTY.

G. Ben Ridley, C. S. C.

To the Grand Jury of Pike County.

We have twenty-eight white schools and twenty-six colored in the county. We enrolled during 1909, 3,873 pupils of both raGes; 1,839 white children and 2,034 colored. Sixty per cent. of these attended the entire public term of six months. Nearly, or quite all of the schools, run the full term of one hundred and twenty days, the white schools as a rule run eighty days in the spring and forty in the fall. Six of our schools are doing excelUmt high school work and run full nine months. Quite a number run from one and a half to two months private term and do more or less high school work.
Since the passage of the McMichael Bill, thirteen districts have voted almost unanimously in favor of local taxation, but here our luck turned, it seems, as two districts have voted on it recently and failed. However, we are not discouraged and shall continue to urge and emphasize both in public and private the importance of it. We earnestly hope before many more years to vote a local tax in the county as a whole. The districts that have voted for local taxation and are now operating under the system, have a better school sentiment and have all increased their attendance. In quite a number of districts which have not been able to vote a local tax I am glad,

165

however, to report that we have enough public spirited men to raise money and supplement the State funds and employ good teachers for a longer term than six months, in fact the trustees in nearly every district, with the cooperation of good men, have raised money to make the schools more efficient. Something like $7,000 was raised last ye.ar by taxation, donations, and tuition, this sum is nearly one-half the amount of the'State funds coming to Pike county. This is not a bad showing aRd makes me think that our people are gradually showing more interest in favor of better schools and better pay for their teachers; and yet we need more funds, and to supply these funds we feel that local taxation for the entire county would be beneficial.
The condition of the school buildings is fairly good, with very few exceptions. Williamson is very much in need of a new and larger building. They have voted local tax, however, and are talking and planning to have what they need. Zebulon, Concord, Molena, Meansville and Milner have each splendid two story buildings. They have small libraries and are increasing the number of volumes each year. Several of our rural schools have also raised money and purchased a few books for the children to read. A plan has been adopted by which we soon hope to have each school supplied with charts globes, maps and blackboards.
A lack of interest on the part of many of our patrons is to a certain extent retarding the progress of our edu cational interests, but we shall make it our first and main duty to secure the very best teachers which our limited funds will command, realizing that they can do much to help us work up an interest that will materialize in better conditions. So far we have not been able to hold monthly meetings for our teachers but we try to visit the schools
L:

as often as possible and keep in touch with the teachers and trustees. by 'phone or letter and help and encourage them to do their very best. The Board of Education expended first and last, about $100 for library and books which are used quite extensively by our teachers, I am sure this is quite a help to them. We are planning to hold an oratorical contest in the near future. Mr. C. T. Smith, member of the Board fr.om Concord, who has always been untiring in his efforts for the advancement of the cause of education not only in his home district, but also in the entire county, offered a resolution at a recent meeting endorsing the idea and has offered a gold medal for the best declaimer of the boys from fourteen to eighteen years of age. We have also secured medals for the recitation of the girls of the same age, and the little folks' under fourteen years of age. We expect to make this an annual affair.
The 11th day of February was observed as "Georgia Day," the nice, helpful and instructive program furnished by the State School Commissioner was carrien out in part at all of our schools, notwithstanding it was a very rainy day in this section of the State.
There are many other matters that I might mention but I must not make this report too long. One other thing, however, I must not omit. One very great problem all over the south standing in the way of educational progress is irregular attendance. It is a stupendous barrier if not the greatest obstacle in the way of progress on educational lines everywhere. Now inefficient schools may to some extent be the cause, but the chief cause is indifference on the part of the parents to educate their children. We have used every device in the way of monthly report cards, and examinations with a view of bettering the <tttendance in our schools but the matter reo
167

mains a very serious problem. We need compulsory attendance along with local taxation. Let us do all in our power to help get some sort of legislation on this question at our next session of the General Assembly, but while we wait for this let us work and pray that the next generation of parents shall consider it their paramount duty both to God and the State to educate their children and look to the school with constant care and attention.

POLK COUNTY.

J. E. Houseal, C. S. C.

I beg to make the following report of the common schools of the county and the general educational conditions:
"-
The education of the youth of the county, as ever in the past, is still the most important public interest demanding our untiring efforts and aid. The problem of public education grows more complex and difficult as wealth and population increases, and the necessity of educating the masses appeals to us more and more as an economic question, to say nothing of the general uplift, which follows as a natural consequence, and the amelioration of conditions in the individual lives of the future men and women of the county.
A very large per cent of our population in the southin Polk county, if you please-is rural and will doubtless continue so for many years to come. The children in the rural districts, or most of them at least, will get their education, if at all, in the comm-on schools. This fact is fully realized. Never before has this question of educating the people engaged the interest and time of the thinking people as it does today. We have simply to look at the women's clubs, working to build up strong sentiment for the education of the country boys and girls, and take note of the contribution of money and time to the cause of education in the country year by year. I feel
170

sure so large and important an interest as the county common schools has your hearty support and good wilL
The county Board feel the great responsibility of their position, and have worked faithfully and exercised their best judgment to build up the school interest of the county. There are always obstacles and difficulties in any great enterprise. In our purpose to educate, we must go . on unhindered by obstacles, undismayed by difficulties and inexorable to opposition; when we have done this and built up a system of common schools worthy of the name, legions in the years to come will rise up and call us blessed. We n~ed not wish a better eulogy than that we made it possible for the boys and girls of the good old county of Polk to acquire an education at home, where they can receive daily counsel and advice of the parent, and be trained by teachers and parents for the larger . life which shall unfold to them when they enter upon the busy activities of manhood and womanhood. But I must. not trespass on your time and patience.
The schools were operated five months the past year, and while the attendance was irregular, the schools showed considemble improvement. The increased enrollment and attendance in some of the schools was very gratifying indeed. It meant increased 'interest on the part of parents in the education of their children.
We are continually improving physical conditions; the means for thiS' are limited. Last year we replaced the building burned at Fish Creek with a new modern school house. .The county Board appropriated $1,000 for this building. The patrons of this school have a building, while not as costly, just as comfortable and convenient 'as any school house need be. We -also built an additional room to the school house at Antioch, and the school house at Mt. Home; we rebuilt the school at Davistown, which
171

had been demolished by the hail and wind storm in the early fall of last year. Desks have been put in these buildings as far as the Board were able.
The county school Board, with the co-operation of the Commissioners of Roads 'and Revenues, engaged the Hudgins Publishing Co., of Atlanta, to make and print a map of Polk county. In pursuance of the law passed by -the Legislature, known as the McMichael Bill, the county' ha,s been laid off into school districts on this map. This has been a very difficult task. The districts have been laid off with reference to the school buildings already erected. Doubtless the future will require some changes in the present lines. The new law provides this.
The Fish Creek district has already held an election for local tax for school purposes; the vote wa~ nearly unanimous in f'avor of the tax.
While the local tax in the separate school districts is . desirable, I believe the solution of the common school problem is county taxation for educational purposes. The tax would not be burdenBome. Ten thousand dollars additional might suffice. We could then operate the schools seven months in the year, employ trained teachers, more efficient, make the schools more effective in every way, educate the boys and girls at home in th~ country, in their natural environment. The country school as a general proposition, is vastly better suited to the education of the country boy and girl than the city school-their tastes, their aims, their purposes in life are different. The country schools need more money and must have it to be a success. Think of Cedartown paying $10,000 for the education of the children within her limits and the county paying $15,000 for the education of the county or country children without the limits of the city of Cedartown. This $15,000 must pay all the teachers, do all the building,
172

buy all the desks and other equipment, pay the cost of administration, etc., etc. Under these conditions, . the country boy and girl will come up to maturity handicapped. It is for the people to say whether these conditions shall continue. As I said before, nothing but county taxation for school purposes will make our county schools what they ought to be. Tax on property, tax on corporations, tax on manufactories, tax on railroads. Men and women with brain capital are worth more than paltry dollars.

PUTNAM OOUNTY.

W. O. Wright, O. S. O.

Exclusive of the schools in Eatonton there were in operation in Putnam county during the year 1909, sixteen .white schools and twenty-six colored schools. The public term of all schools, white and colored, was seven months. Seven of the white schools were long term schools of nine months, and several of the negro schools added an extra month to the public ter~.
Of the 688 white children of school age in the cOUIitry, 64 per cent were enrolled in the schools. Of the 540 enrolled 82 per cent. were in school seven months. Eleven of the sixteen white schools made an average attendance of 10 to 60 per cent. greater than they made last year. Four of these' schools added an extra teacher during the year. Small pox has hurt our schools some recently.
Of the 3,172 colored children in the country 61 per cent. were enrolled in the schools. Of the 1,966 negro children enrolled 45 per cent. were in school seven months.
173

Seven of our thirteen rural school districts have local

tax for the support of .the schools, three of these having

voted local tax during the past year.

Our Institute or Teachers' Meeting, which convenes

one Friday in each month for five consecutive months has

helped the teachers and the schools in many ways.

Two school rallies, embracing all the schools in the

county, were held, one on the 7th and the other on the 21st

of May. Great interest was manifested in their schools

by the tea1chers and pupils, and the two meetings resulted

in great good. Each school had its yell and school colors,

and these two non-essentials did more, perhaps, than any

other thing to foster school and community pride. As a

result of oneof these meetings, the shabbiest school house

in the county has already grown to be the prettiest.

During the fall term we have had a domestic science teacher, through the generosity of Mr. N. -0. Nelson, of

tIle N. O. Nelson Manufacturing Co., of St. Louis, Mo.

As a result, in great part of the work of this teacher, we

have recently organized a Putnam County ,Boys' Corr't

Club and will in a few days organize a Girls' Cooking

and Sewing Club. We expect to derive great benefit from

the'se two organizations.

.

During the year Central school building has been

erected at a cost of $1,500.00, and a room has been added

to Wesley Chapel school at a cost of $200.00. A large

veranda has been added to Phoenix. Salem school build-

ing has been 'painted inside; Hearnville and Stanfordville

on the outside; Ramoth inside and outside. Money has

been raised, in part, to paint :B'riendship, Phoenix and

PULASKI COUNTY.

R. C. Sanders, C. S. C.

To the Honorable Gra,nd J1try of Pulaski County.
Gentlemen: In compliance with the law I have the honor to submit a report of the schools of Pulaski county for the year 1909.
In consolidating the statistics of attendance and in reviewing the work of the past year, I find very satisfactory progress in the enrollment and in the regularity of attendance, particularly in the white schools. The reports of the schools show that in the white schools there were more boys enrolled than girls, a fact gratifying, as it is unusual. There were 1,157 white boys and 1,001 white girls. There were 854 negro boys and 1,004 negro girls. It sh~ws progress to see an increasing attendance of boys, as they are to have the future responsibility of the government and they should take advantage of all the opportunities of education within their reach. Frequently the distance from the home to the school, the numerous duties of the household detain the girls within the precincts of home. This should not be. Our girls must be the home-makers of the future and mold the destinies of the coming years.
Our schools, therefore, should give especial attention to these children who are out of school, should see to it that they attend and that they are using their opportu-
175

nities to the best advantage. In this work the schools stand greatly in need of the eo-operation of the parents. Oftentimes a boy loses interest when he reaches the sixth and higher grades and his parents are easily persuaded that it is best to take him from school and put him to work. While it is important that every child should know somethi~g about work, it is equally important that his education should not be neglected during the few years of his life when he can obtain it. If he goes to'work and succeeds for a year or two the probability is strong that he will never again return to school. The teachers need to lay hold of these out of schoolchildren and the parents should help them in seeing to it that these children get an education, at least such as our public schools give them.
The attendance of the colored schools fell off considerably the past year. The reason for this is the need of school houses for this class of our citizens. During the winter of 1908 and 1909 several of the colored school houses were burned. Although the Board of Education used exemplary diligence in trying to aid them, many were left without school advantages. Your Commissioner would urge that the industrial feature be stressed in the colored schools, that the children may be taught to work and work well as by this means they may be able to earn an honest livelihood and thus be of service to the country. Our best educators know that in a one teacher school the best work of an instructor cannot be done, and that children cannot accomplish what they should. Your Commissioner would urge the influence of your honorable body in the different sections of the county for the consolidation of the smaller schools into larger ones with a greater number of teachers. That this is best is evident. A teacher with seven grades, with five lessons a day to
176

1
the grade is required to hear thirty-five recitations in 360 minutes, an average of ten minutes to the class. As many of you know, some of these lessons cannot be properly taught in less than thirty minutes. Some pupils must suffer for lack of proper attention. The teacher is generally more interested in higher grades and the little fellows who need the maximum amount of careful training sit idly swinging their feet learning naught but the mischief which so generally infest a large collection of children. To insure these larger and better schools where these little onefj will receive proper modicum of attention requires more money than is at the disposal of the Board of Education. Several school districts with the interest of their children preferred to all other interests have voted a local school tax and they are blessed with perhaps the best rural schools in the county. One district has gone so far as to become a corporation by legislative enactment. The needs of their children compelled them to this and they have nobly met the obligation and are worthy of all honor and praise.
Our rural districts in some parts of the county have been denuded of its white population and abandoned to the negro, the white people having moved to the towns to be in reach of better educational advantages. If our rural schools should be improved as they could, by a little help, the farms made attractive, the boys encouraged to study the grandest of all professions, that of agriculture, there would be an era of unprecedented prosperity and contentment.
The State Agricultural College, the State Fair Association and several individuals recognizing the necessity . for greater interest in the study of agriculture have offered adequate prizes to the pupils of our schools for the best care of corn and cotton, the best ears of l'orn and
177

1
the best stalk of cotton. Professor Soule, president of our Farmer's College, proposes to come to each county and spend a number of days in giving instructions in county farmer's institutes and in organizing this work in the rural schools. We would urge your united and individual aid and co-operation in bringing these gentlemen to Pulaski county.
We have an earnest, energetic and faithful corps of teachers. Occasionally there is one who is not all that . we wish, but, on the whole, they are worthy of confidence and earnest support. Although something has been done in the past to render our school houses and grounds attractive, yet there has not been accomplished one-half of what is needed. A lover of children with the interest of our schools at heart and recognizing the mission of flowers in education promises in the near future three hundred packages of the very best flower seed for our schools and writes, "I hope these seed will do well and that the fragrance and beauty of them will lend an added encouragement to the boys and girls of the schools who are working to equip themselves to enter actively upon the great field of human endeavor.
"If they do this, I feel that they have not been misused but that" they have served a purpose far greater than any other to which they could have been put."
There is not as much interest as should be taken in the establishing of school libraries, but we are encouraged by the fact that as the schools b~come more effective the school library becomes a necessity. The members of the Board of Education are faithful and earnest in their efforts to bring it about that each child of school age shall enjoy the advantage of an education. They are worthy of the great trust imposed upon them and in their
178

work deserve the commendation and confidence of the people.
As it may be of interest to the people of the county to jmow something of the material growth of the school interests of the county we present to you the following statistics:
White school houses owned by the county, 39. Aggregate value of houses owned by county $19,8~0.00 Aggregate value of school equipmenL________ 4,752.90

RICHMOND COUNTY.

L. B. Evans, C. S. C.

In making my report on the condition of affairs in Richmond county I desire to dwell especially on the rural school side of our system, since the effect of our peculiar oranization is shown in the gradual improvement of our rural schools. At the present time the Board of Educa-
179

tion owns all of its school houses and has no white schools that run less than seven months. The majority of them run eight months and a few run nine months. We offer a school to any community who will maintain an attendance of 15 pupils. The schools remain open as long as the people will patronize them.
The average pay of the white rural school teachers is $40.00 a month for the term. They are paid monthly and appear to be of the best qualifications for work in the rural schools. Last summer we had a most profitable institute of two weeks' session in which a special emphasis was made on industrial work, especially cooking, sewing and weaving. There was a full attendance of teachers present and a corps of five or six special instructors.
The special effort that is being made in Richmond 'County is to consolidate the schools wherever possible in order to have fewer schools and better schools. As un
illustration of this, I refer especially to the Gracewood
school about eight miles from Augusta. The school is the consolidation of three schools. Each of these schools had about 20 pupils on roll and all were slow and dull schools. The three were 'consolidated at Gracewood, a new building was erected at the expense of $3,000, and children were transferred in wagons from outlying districts. One of these wagons carries 25 children and the other carries 20 children. The contract for hauling was let to the lowest bidder, he furnishing everything-( except the children). It is proving a most popular movement. At first there was opposition to consolidation and to transportation, but it has become one of the most popular things that we are now doing. Instead of having 60 children in three schools we now have 90 children in Clue school.
180

c.:.\. Hll'II1\10:'\'I) .\{'.\I>I':~IY, .\l'UlHTA,

We have successfully introduced industrial work in the Gracewood school. We have a well-equipped kitchen with two ordinary wood stoves, such as the rural people use. We have a kitchen table at which 12 pupils can work at a time. Each pupil is provided with an individual equipment of the necessary working utensils. The total cost of the kitchen was about $200, including everything. There are 30 pupils in this school, who take a cooking lesson once a week two hours in length. One . of the directors of the Domestic Science of the city schools goes there once a week to give the lesson.
. Sewing is also taught the same pupils. The class in sewing is in operation the same time the class is in cook. ing in a different room. The pupils are also taught basketry and other handicrafts. The introduction of domestic sciencQ in this school has proved very popular with the people and so far I have heard no objections from those who might think that the aTt of home keeping had best be taught at home.
The building also has a library and reading room for the benefit of the school and the community at large. There are about 100 books so far in the library, but it is hoped to double that number in a short while and make the library practically a public library for the use ofthe people of Gracewood. Altogether the Gracewood school has satisfactorily demonstrated the fact that the consolidated school is by a long ways the best school, and we propose to consolidate more o~ them from time to time and introduce these attractive features that stimulate and interest the pupils and people of the rural districts:

SPALDING COUNTY.

J. O. A. Miller, C. S. C.

A review of the past reveals the fact that" we have made improvement in the school work of the county. Although we have been accustomed to some exemplary educational institutions in by-gone years, yet we have never claimed so many good schools at one time heretofore, as we do now. The logic of this statement indicates that success in a larger measure than common has crowned our efforts to secure faithful, qualified teachers. In this, the "General Manager" has done his best work. Just as the happy farmer may rejoice to know that his crops are growing, even while he is taking his repose; so als.o one may glory in the fact that schools, equipped with good teachers, continue to prosper, even without rigid, incessant supervision. In addition to our well-patronized rural schools, the pupils of the county have access to the excellent public schools and High Schools of Griffin, and between three and four hundred avail themselves of this splendid privilege.

LOCAL TAX.
We are still discreetly working at it. Since' last report, one school district has adopted local taxation for school purposes. They have a good school house in this district, but prior to the local tax election, it was so encumbered with debt as to be thre::ttened with loss by foreclosure of mortgage. The debt was paid with money realized from a low ratl;) of taxation, and the school life was so quickened that attendance of pupils doubled in one year. The trustees in another school district raised the tax rate, built another room to the school house, and, as a consequence, the former enrollment of 75 was increased to 120. Local taxation has been tried sufficiently
182

in this county to prove that it is' greatly beneficial. It is surprising that it has not been adopted everywhere. Why should schools attempt to live any longer" at this poor dying rate" when, with local taxation, they could assuredly have life real and abundanU
SCHOOL CONTESTS.
We have organized a corn contest for the purpose of teaching agriculture practically, and for increasing love for farming and for country life. The schools of the county have also engaged in 'an oratorical contest for promoting a higher appreciation of good literature, and for developing the faculties of expression.
CONFESSION.
Our school conditions are not perfect. This acknowledgement, coupled with a sincere desire for betterment, indicates that all the schools of the county, rural, village and city, should be combined into one uniform, greatly improved system, operated under the wise management of one capable body.
J. O. A. MILLER, C. S. C. Spalding County.

SUMTER COUNTY.

W. S. Moore, C. S. C.

We had in operation during the year 1909, twentythree white and thirty-seven negTo schools. The attendance was good. Our public term for white schools was seven months and for negro schools six. Several of our white schools were run eight and several nine months by private subscription. Our teachers have been promptly paid at the end of each month. We have been enabled to' do this by accumulating a surplus of funds arising from the hire of convicts.
183

By paying our teachers promptly we have secured better teachers, which gives us better service and puts the school interests in our county on a much higher plane. We hold our institutes monthly instead of the usual week's meeting at the close of the term. These meetings have been well attended, the teachers apparently taking much interest in them.
The Board of Education holds deeds to twenty-four school houses for white children. These are all in good condition, being well painted and seated with patent desks, and fitted with other appliances. Two negro school houses are owned by the Board. We have libra,r. ies in all the white schools, the books having been paid for, one half by the Board and the other half by the patrons of the respective schools.
We have five wagons transporting pupils at a cost of twenty dollars each, per month. The pupils who an: thus transported attend school more regularly than the others. Our schools are fairly well graded for country schools. Our teachers measure up to a high standard of efficiency, and are doing their work in a creditable and satisfactory manner. We hope to retain them during another year.
Our Board of Education is composed of men of sterling worth, who are looking after the interests of the schools in a way that reflects credit upon the schools ot the county. We have three school districts that have voted local tax the past year, and others are considering the same step. I am stressing all lines that tend toward the promotion of the cause of education and the upbuilding of the schools of Sumter county.

TALBOT COUNTY.

O. D. Gorman, C. S. C.

How may we promote a larger attendance on the common schools 1 The answer to this may be in process, as suggested by the gradual increase of attendance for the past ten years. However, I am not sure that an apparent growth is a real increase at all. It may not be more than appreciable when referred to the yearlj small advance in the State's population. Whatever causes shall seem to be explanatory of this feature, it yet remains that there is an ample field for the kind of enterprise that will place an appreciably larger number of pupils in our schools-in the county as a unit, and in the State as a whole---'and keep them in attendance on the daily sessions of the school.
In the foregoing I am not referring to the subject of compulsory school operation. It would seem to be more in keeping with the character of our institutions if we shall cultivate and depend upon voluntary attendance, thus appealing to the educational consciousness and enterprise of our people. Having proper regard for the work needs of our people, it would seem possible for boards .of education to so regulate the months in which schools shall be taught as to give to every beneficiary the full benefit of the public term. I doubt not that Boards are already working in that direction, having achieved sufficient success to inspire yet greater efforts at successful regulation. I doubt not that county superintendents are co-operating with their Boards for the accomplishment of better results, and that they .find the work inspirational and helpful. The policy of Boards should always be liberal, and framed in such generous manner as to stimulate the zeal of neighborhoods in the maintenance of their own schools. The schools should be made
185

attractive in the matter of good and well-furnished buildings and pleasant grounds, located as far as practicable within convenient distance of the school population. Children are easily interested in attractive and agreeable things] and nothing so contributes to their general comfort as well ordered and properly furnished school rooms. For several years Talbot county has been making progress in this direction, while we are continuing our efforts for the building of better school houses,' and their equipment with desks and other furnishings. The response to this is in increased interest in the school districts, and better daily attendance on the school programs.
I am pleased to note the hearty co-operation of teachers with the efforts we are making to increase the efficiency of the school service, and to order the daily programs so as to inspire interest, and stimulate individual zeal on the part of the pupiL I am also gratified to observe a growing interest in the prosperity of our schools on the part of the pe'ople generally. This feature can not be too greatly stressed, indicative as it is of a more generous appreciation of popular education, and a de- sire to sustain the efforts being made to build up the schools and to stimulate enlarged attendance. With better methods of instruction, we are pleased to note a more progressive system of grading in our schools. Proper classification logically promotes better grading, while this in turn is compensative in the time saved to the daily program. These features must be carefully worked out by our teachers who daily study and observe the growth of method in the lesson function, with the reciprocal action of greater interest by all the pupils of the school in the daily exercises. Weare gratified at the progress we have achieved in the growth and in-
186

creasing efficiency of our schools, and the liberal co-operation and interest of school communities throughout the county.

TATTNALL COUNTY.

I. S. Smith, C. S. C.

Our schools are all in a prosperous condition, the year 1909 having the largest enrollment in the history of the county.
Our increase in enrollment for the year 1909 over 1908 was 879 pupils. 88 per cent. of the white children of the county were enrolled in the public schools. This year we are making a special effort to enroll at least 90 per cent. of them.
A number of new buildings were erected during the year, three of which were two-roomed buildings. Several extra rooms were added and many repaired throughout the county.
Our people are growing more in favor of school consolidation each year, and as a natural result larger schools with a better corps of teachers are being established in our rural districts.
We have forty school districts in this county, and twenty-four of them employ from two to eight teachers each. At present we have 88 white teachers. Fourfifths of them are normal trained, while fifty of them
either have permanent license or first grade. 1 consider
the county fortunate in having such an excellent body of teachers.
We have b.een running several transportation wagons this year, and they have given general satisfaction.
187

We have learned by experience that there is economy III transportation of children, as it gives them the advantage of better schools, it increases school interest, and is a saving from the standpoint of dollars and cents.
We pay our teachers regardless of the size of the school $40 for first, $35 for second, and $25 for third grade license. We find this gives general satisfaction to patrons and teachers, encourages our people to employ a better grade of teachers, and is a great boost to those districts most in need of encouragement. For the year 1909 the supplement paid by this county was $12,500. Hence the public fund of $17,000, plus supplement of $12,500, equals the sum of $29,500 spent on the public schools of Tattnall county for the year 1910.
We have monthly institutes and they are attended by practically the entire teaching force. We make monthly payments at each of these. At the request of our teachers we have found it necessary to have a summer school, to begin June 6th. There IS no doubt but that it will be a success, as our teachers are very enthusiastic over same.
While we are not by any means doing what we ought to do in Tattnall, from an educational point of view, yet I believe we are making considerable progress. Our patrons are becoming more enthusiastic over the cause, our teachers are more in earnest, and our schools more proficient.

It is with pride and pleasure that I can affirm that the schools of my county (Telfair) have made the best record along all lines in their history during the past year.
We' have had better attendance and greater interest on part of patrons than ever before. We have done much in improvement of buildings, and in furnishing desks. It is with very deep gratification to me that in all of this the patrons have gone into their pockets liberally and cheerfully.
We have bright prospects ahead of us for still greater attainments, and confidently hope to realize them.

TOWNS COUNTY.

R. A. Kimsey, C. S. C.

I beg leave to make the following report relating to the schools of Towns county.
The enrollment and average attendance for the past year has been good. The parents are taking a greater interest in sending their children to school.

The Hiawasse High Schools and the Young Harris College. These schools are doing excellent work, and each year the attendance is increasing.
We have 20 rural schools, (all white). These are run five months each year and are doing very good work.
During the past year our teachers have given satsifaction.
We have very good houses in all the school districts and have a part of them seated with patent desks. All the school houses, except one, are owned by the Board of Education.
The Board has labored earnestly to give every child in the county the very best opportunities possible.
The geographical conditions of our county are such that we cannot do much in consolidating our schools, yet we have done some work along this line.
I feel safe in saying that the cause of education in this county is progressive, and the money spent by the State has not been spent in vain. Each year we are sending young men and ladies out into the various parts of the world and they are a blessing to the section in which they locate. Our motto is to press onward and upward.
Respectfully,
R. A. KIMSEY,

ATTENDANCE.

Our attendance for white children shows an increase of 3.4 per cent. in enrollment over the preceding year
191

and 6.4 per cent inc-rease in the regularity of attendance. These figures, while not as large as they should be, are at least encouraging. The colored attendance shows an increase of 6.3 per cent. in enrollment and 8.6 per cent. in regularity of attendance.
REPORT CARDS.
Report cards showing marks in class standing, deportment and attendance are furnished to teachers, who are required to send them to parents at the end of each month.
CONSOLIDATION.
During the year two schools were consolidated, and a neat, roomy building was erected for the new school.
In another instance three schools were consolidated at a central point, and a two-room, up-to-date building erected.
Wherever the efforts at consolidation have been made there was more or less opposition on the part of the more conservative element, but this opposition gradually disappears as the increased efficiency of the larger school, with its three teachers, is seen over the small school, with its one teacher.
TRANSPORTATION.
Transportation is furnished to those pupils that are out of reach of school, and during the year one team was hired for this purpose.
The rural school will never reach its full measure of efficiency until it has become the settled policy of boards of education to place two teachers in every school where practicable.
192

MONTHLY MEETINGS.
The monthly meetings of teachers were kept up with increased interest and efficiency of work. At one of these meetings a public debate was given by the institute, with the subject, "Should Georgia pass a Oompulsory Educational Law~"
ANNUAL INSTITUTE.
The annual institute was held at Jeffersonville, with Prof. A. F. Ware as instructor, whose practical teaching was at once instructive and inspiring.

OONTESTS.
The contests, which took place at the summer institute, covered a larger field of school work than usual, embracing the following subjects: Declamation, elocution, reading, writing, drawing, illustrated poems.

AGRICULTURE.
Realizing that this is an agricultural county and most of the children "in our puplic schools are destined to follow this calling as a life work, greater and greater effort is being made to make the school do its part in laying the foundation of an agricultural education and inspiring the child with zest and respect for his future calling.
The teaching of nature study and the planting and cultivation of school gardens are urged as helpful in this line of school work.

ANNUAL SCHOOL FAIR.

This has become a fixed part of our school work, and

it was held this year in conjunction with the celehration

of the centennial year of the county.

'-so C.

The history of the county was read and a number of addresses suited to the occasion were made. The crowd in attendance was estimated at five thousand people, coming from all over the county and from other States.
It was feared that the centennial part of the occasion, with its immense throng, its brass band, its elaborate program, and mammoth spread, would overshadow the school proper, but the exhibits of the boys and girls were quite up to the standard in variety and quality.
Prizes were given for cotton, corn, sugar cane, chickens, pigs, picure frames, needle work, cakes, biscuits, light bread,. pickles, preserves, flowers, and relics.
LOCAL TAX.
As I am writing this report a movement is on foot and a petition is started in one district for an election for local tax, with every assurance of its carriage, and it may be safely predicted that a long term school will soon be in operation in every district in the county.
SEVENTH GRADE CERTIFICATES.
Special effort is being made to have teachers follow the course of study prescribed by the State School Commissioner, grade pupils properly, and get as many to finish the public school course as possible and get their certificates. It is urged that this certificate is of value, and the child, is urged to prepare for it and win it.
l:e- During the year fifteen white pupils passed and
ceived their certificates, and five colored. This shows a larger number of seventh grade graduates than any term heretofore.

R. D. Shuptrine, C. S. C.

It is gratifying to those who can remember the beginning of Georgia's public school system nearly 40 years ago, to compare its present status with various periods of its past, and to note how securely it is grafting itself into the affections of the people, how gradually and surely it is being moulded into a system worthy of our great State. Georgia is becoming thoroughly awakened to the vital importance of educating the masses, and to the direct bearing this will have upon the future of the commonwealth. The appropriations for educational purposes are becoming more liberal.
This county can now pay its teachers nearly double the salaries that it paid 12 or 14 years ago, and 25 per cent. more than it paid three years ago.
Our children are now taught in good, comfortable school houses. The people no longer tolerate the old cabins once used for this purpose. Our school work is better classified-more systematized.
In the last twelve years Upson county has increased her school property 400 per cent.
Though our County Board of Education may view with pleasure the evidences of the steady progress it has continued to make from time to time, yet it is fully conscious that great improvements are still to be made before all our public schools will be in that desirable state of efficiency aimed at by the law. But the outlook is brightening, and certain manifestations from headquar-

195

tel'S make us confidently look for a more rapid advance along the whole line in the future.

WAL;KER COUNTY.

C. M. Conley, ,C. S. C.

The year 1909 was a prosperous year for Walker county schools. Had in operation 53 white and 14 colored schools, employing 80 white and 16 colored teachers. Most all schools are reasonably well graded. We have 16 long term schools, running from seven to nine months. All schools run six months. The attendance has been exceedingly good and interest manifested by patrons and teachers is very encouraging. Most of our schools supplement the teacher's salary paid by Board. We do not have regular monthly meetings of teachers, but hold a regular annual institute. Our last institute was conducted by Prof. M. L. Brittain. Something like one hundred present,. also a lot of patrons and visitors. Built one schoolhouse at $1,500 in local tax district. Average salary paid from public funds, $40.00 per month. We have five local tax districts. Quite a number of our teachers have held their same positions four and six years. This is one thing we are encouraging, and have as few changes as possible.

REPORT OF GRAND JURY.
We find after having examined the books of the County School Commissioner that they are correct. We wish to commend him for his neat, correct and systematic manner in which he has kept them.

The year 1909 was the most prosperous school year III our history, more interest manifested by the pupils in their studies and annual rally, more by the teachers in their monthly institutes and general duties.
A bi-monthly trustees' institute was organized, which promises to supply a long-felt need to the teachers and County School Commissioner.
197

.
Long-term schools are increasing and less than one

half dozen white teachers were not trained for their work.

Only one new building was constructed, but several

repaired.

School libraries are on the increase, which, with the

large one of nearly 500 volumes in my office, are being

used to a great advantage among the teachers and

pupils.

The year 1909 was the best year in the history of the schools for Ware county.
There was more real progress made than ever before, notwithstanding all of our difficulties-and there were many; we have our school affairs in very good shape, while in several communities there seems to be very little interest in education,the majority of the districts have more interest than ever.
During the year we obtained some very fine teachers, and they did much to awaken interest in the various districts where they labored. We have been fortunate in securing a majority of our teachers again for the present year, many of them will teach the same schools that they taught last year, and it is our aim to encourage them to do so.
Our school buildings are not very good as a rule, but we hope to overcome much of this during the year.
In some of the poorest and smallest districts we have the best school houses, in the largest and wealthiest districts we have the poorest buildings; in our largest school
193

districts we have a school building without doors, the windows are gone and the roof is entirely rotten; the cows and sheep sleep inside the house and the hogs sleep under it; in this respect it seems that those who are most able to have good buildings are the ones who take the less interest in building and repairing the houses.
We have nine districts which levied school taxes for 1909, and there was raised from this source alone about $3,000. None of this SUIll was used during the year and will be used during 1910.
The principal part will be used in building and repairing the school buildings in the various districts. ,
During the present year we hope to have a large increase in the number of districts levying school tax.
The year just begun promises to be one in which much improvement will be made in all our schools.
We have an able Board of Education and they are taking a keen interest in all that pertains to our schools.
I have been instructed to give my whole time to the supervision of the schools and confidently think that they will show great progress during the present year.
Respectfully submitted, J. R. BOURN,

The schools in the rural districts of Warren county are far below what they ought to be. I hllve learned since I came into office, two years ago, that reformations move slowly, or there will be a great deal of friction. In reformations someone or something must change. It is the ~hanging element that gives the trouble. The chapO'-
1_99

ing of school sites or the consolidation of schools always meets with opposition.
We are anxious to put our county in the local tax column, but while we were agitating the matter our court house was burned and our people became very much disturbed on the high tax question. We have had an accurate map of our country made by the Hudgins Co., of Atlanta, which shows the militia districts in colors and the school districts in dotted lines. The drawing of the map was turned over to the Board before it was printed, and with the aid of the surveyor we marked out our districts, using public roads, streams, and settlement roads for lines, as far as possible. The Board of County Commissioners paid half. The company gave us fifty maps, which at the retail price for which they sold in the county, was more than we paid to have the work done.
One district has voted and carried for local tax, fourteen to one. Others, I think, will follow, and we hope soon to have the whole county under thiB system.
Up to last year the Board owned no property. Now we have two good buildings, fully furnished with the best furniture. What we need now is local taxation for the county, better school buildings, better located, and professional teachers.
B. H. IVEY,
C. S. C. Warren County.
WASHINGTON COUNTY. Wade H. Wood, C. S. C.
It is not my privilege to report any marked change in the ~ducational conditions of this county in 1909, as compared with 1908. Our people are conservative, yet progressive, and they have continued, in most school dis-
200'

tricts, to show unabated interest in the affairs of our schools.
All in all, I believe this has been the best year in the history of our school system. The enrollment of pupils was good among the whites, and the average attendance was better than during the previous year. It was a year marked for the absence of controversies or wrangles among patrons over school matters. I am delighted that I can say that we had a larger number of schools with terms supplementary to the public term of six months. There was, also, apparently a better appreciation of the teachers office, and a demand for real worth, in every respect, in the teacher. By tactful management, the people of the county had for several years been led to rely largely upon the central office for aid in the selection of teachers, which had its very obvious advantages and benefits to all concerned. There is some reason to fear that under the operation of the present laws selection of satisfactory teachers will be, to some extent, at least, interferred with.
It is perhaps not inappropriate just here to speak briefly of a phase of our work often complained of. We often hear it said that teachers remain in service so short a time that they can hardly get the professional spirit ere they are drawn into some other work. In this respect we have been fortunate. Nearly all of our teachers are resident in the county and about one half have been teaching continuously for from ten to .thirty yean:, while only a very few have taught less than five years; and they all have been, in sentiment, growth and prac tice, fully identified with the progress of the profession. I can say with perfect confidence, I think, that no county's teachers as a bbdy ranks higher than ours. I believe that the superintendent has much to do with the reten-
201

tion of teachers. I believe that our teachers have been kept alive- in the good work mainly because the superintendents have kept in close touch, by encouragement, by prompt dealings with their troubles and differences, by frequent conferences and communications, by requiring regular attendance at m.onthly meetings of our teachers, closely supervising and directing the plans, purposes and work of this feature of our educational equipment, by co-operating with teachers in making their arrangements for the organization of their schools and dealing with the communities in their relation both to the school and teacher, by helping to encourage longer and more satisfactory terms, by payment of fairly good salaries promptly. I have been able the past two years to pay teachers every dollar of their salaries before the first of July.
It is a matter of pride to me that I can refer to the following schools of our county: Pringle, rural school, consolidated from three small schools, three-room, painted building, employs three teachers, eight months' term; attendance more than double that of the original schools taken together. Harrison, village-rural school, splendid two-story building, four school rooms, auditorium and music rooms on second floor, long-term high school, attendance double previous enrollment, is paying for the house with funds derived from local tax, charging tuition to pay current expenses; Wharthen, village-rural school, splendid two-story building, four school rooms with auditorium and music rooms on second floor, long term, liberally supported and paid for by local subscription; Davisboro, good, one-story, five-room, painted building, employs four teachers and music teacher, long term, liberally supported by community subscription from property owners without children; Deepstep, employs
202

three teachers, and has music class, well-appointed building of three rooms, long term; with the exception of Davisboro, all built during my incumbency, and that has been twice enlarged and improved. Riddleville is another of our large schools where interest has grown, but the old building is sorely inadequate. Every school house in the county has modern desks except one. .

As shown by reports to me by trustees and teachers. the sum of $3,065.30 was raised in the county by tuition fees, donations, etc. This amount was expended in supplementing teachers' salaries during the public term, lengthening the term and in improvements of various kinds.
NUMBER OF SCHOOLS.
When the Board in 1907, in compliance with the McMichael law, redistricted the county, the number of schools was reduced from 60 to 55. Since that time, as circumstances would permit, small districts have been merged into larger ones, until now (April 18, 1910), there are only 50 school districts in the county with an' average of a little over 15 square miles to the district. During 1909 the Board operated 52 white schools and 15 colored.
LENGTH OF TERM.

The public school term for 1909 was four months. Eleven white schools failed to complete the public term; nine had supplementary terms ranging from one to four months. All except one of the colored schools completed the public term, but none of them ran longer than four months.
204

ENROLLMENT AND ATTENDANCE.
According to the census of 1908 there are 2,491 white and 722 colored children of school age in Wayne county. The white schools enrolled in 1909 2,174 children, or 87 per cent. of those of school age. The colored schools enrolled 542, or 75 per cent. of those of school age. The average attendance was for whites 1,457, and for colored 360.
NUMBER OF . TEACHERS, THEIR GRADES AND SALARIES.
\
Sixty-two white teachers were employed, 22 of which held first grade licenses, 17 second grade, and 23 third. The Board paid an average of $35.58 to first grade teachers, $28.88 to' second, and $22.56 to third. Adding tuition fees to the amount paid by the State, first grade teachers received an average of $46.00 per month; second grade, $37.44; and third grade, $29.91.
VALUE OF SCHOOL PROPERTY
.The total value of school houses and equipment in 1906 was $9,150; in 1907, $11,635; in 1908, $14,471; in 1909, $14,783.
BOARD ".M:EMBERS.
The term of office of three Board members(B. G. Middleton, R. J. Madray and W. A. Goin) will expire next October and it will be necessary for you to appoint their successors. These gentlemen have proven themselves faithful and efficient servants of the people.
THE PRESENT SCHOOL YEAR.
The school year of 1910 will be a better one than 1909 was. Some new houses are being built and old ones re-
205

paired; libraries are being established; improved desks

are being bought. The Board has appropriated $1,00.0

of the school fund to stimulate improvement along these

lines.

.

CONCLUSION.

Gentlemen, in considering this report you will surely come to the conclusion that our educational work should be improved. Not much improvement can come, however, until more money is provided. And the only sure way to secure this money is to do what twenty-one other countIes in the St6te have done, vote a local tax. No thoughtful person can expect $3.04 per child which the State pays us, and a,little voluntary tuition collected here and there, to build a school system worth very much.
In making up your presentments, I am sure you will take proper notice of the matters I have brought to your attention, for the law says this shall be your duty.
B. D. PURCELL,
C. S. C. Wayne County.

WHITFIELD COUNTY.

J. C. Sapp, C. S. C.

School conditions of our county seem to show some, improvement. This is indicated more clearly, perhaps, by the attitude of our people in reference to supplementing the salaries of teachers-either by loca~ taxation or by supplemental tuition.
Three years ago there was only one school in the county where the patrons paid any part of the teacher's salary.. Last year more than one-third of the schools in the county contributed to the salaries of their teachers, more or less liberally.
206

During the year five districts voted local taxation, making a total of nine districts for the county. Perhaps it is worthy of mention that there were only two dissenting votes in the.nine districts.
In the districts operating under the local tax law the improvement is evident and will be even more so when we have passed through the experimental stage. The rate of taxation as fixed by the trustees (one-quarter of one per cent.) is not burdensome, and I have heard but little complaint.
These loc!!l tax districts, owing to better salaries and longer terms, practically have choice of the county teachers and have a tendency to check the annual exodus of many of our better trained teachers, which has been one of our hardest problems. While local taxation by districts is doing much good; our greatest hope is that it will pave the way for local taxation for the county as a whole, which would certainly be much better.
Two good, substantial school houses were built during the year, one at Hopewell, the other at Good Hope, both of them to be deeded to the Board of Education. Another good school house was begun at Mt. Vernon and will be completed this year. Deeded to local trustees. Only one school, Center Point, was furnished with patent desks during the year.
Interest in library work is fairly good. We have a county library in the office of C. S. C. and furnish books, through the teachers, to all the cbildren of the county who care to read them. This work grows more popular each year and we have to add new books to the library to supply the increased demand. It has been the means, too, of establishing several district libraries.
The average length of term for our county during 1908 was 94 days; for 1909 it was 105 days. The enroll-
207

ment has increased from 2,684 in 1908 to 2,859 in 1909, and the average daily attendance from 1,498 to 1,578.
The annual report for 1908 shows the total amount paid the teachers of our county to be' $8,114.47; the annual report for 1909 shows a payment of $10,349.02 to the teachers-an increase of $2,234.55. However, the new form of annual report, which includes the amount paid by patrons as well as the, amount paid by the State, is responsible, in part, for this apparent increase. Still the actual increase has been substantial.
. We have been obliged to leave undone. so many of the things that we wanted to do for our schools that it seems as if almost nothing has been accomplished, yet, on the whole, we are grateful to see some little evidence of progress.

WILCOX COUNTY.

E. S. Hamilton, C. S. C.

To the Honorable Grandi Jury, Wilcox County.

Gentlemen: I beg to submit my report of the school

operations of Wilcox county for the year 1909, in ac-

cordance with the Act of 1887. I have given to the State

School Commissioner, in my annual report, the statis-

tical data concerning the schools and will therefore leave

this from my report to you.

I am glad to state to you that practically every school

, building in the county is now ceDed, and are comfortable



for winter use. Two-thirds of the buildings are equipped

with modern patent desks, and quite a number of school

grounds are fenced and in a sanitary condition. We

have several two-teacher schools in the county, yet there

208

are some people in our county who still cling to the idea that it is just as good to run several one-teacher schools as it is to run one school with two teachers. The oneteacher school has always been a failure.
I beg to give you the following information, which seems to me as proof positive that one-teacher schools cannot do effective work. The one teacher has seven grades to teach, and if each grade carries the number of studies required by law, she has sixty recitations to hear each day; this gives her about nine minutes to each recitation. ~he has no time to devote to backward pupils. Suppose she has nine pupils in each recitation, she has less than one minute to devote to each child. Therefore is it not apparent and imperative that we make our schools better by having more teachers and larger schools 7 It is not the number of pupils that the teacher has but the number of recitations that she must hear that the child does not get the attention that should be given it. Three new school houses were built during the year, and these were modern, up-to-date buildings. We are now having two teachers for several of the schools, and the progress they are making is far above the average one-teacher school.
I beg to say that we now have our school term arranged in such a way that we can pay our teachers promptly at the end of each month, we have accumulated a little surplus and have put on an extra one-half month, which gives us a public term of five and one-half months. We hope by the time the term of 1910 comes to a close that we will have accumulated enough surplus to make our public term six months, and we feel quite sure that we are going to be successful in this. The Board of Education has encouraged better buildings and better equipment by helping all that they possibly could. Our
209

State funds are insufficient to maintain good teachers and

build and equip up-to-date school rooms. However, it

is possible for every school district in Wilcox county to

have a modern, up-to-date school house, and employ the

very best talent as teachers. This can be done by a

county system of local taxation. "\Ve have made a careful

estimation, and can assure the tax payers of this county

that a tax levy of $2.00 per thousand will build and equip

modern school houses in every school district in the

county. This gives funds sufficient to employ first-class

teachers for each one of the schools.

In Georgia the taxable property due each child of

school age is $516.00 in Wilcox county it is less than this,

our town and city children (negroes included) get eight

to nine months schooling each year by local taxation. If

the children in the country do not have equal chance with

the children in town they are going to fall behind in the

future struggle for existence.

In a district four miles square there are Ipore than ten

thousand acres of land; if the salary of the teachers is

fifty dollars per month, a tax of one cent per acre would

increase the length of the school term more than two

months. One extra stalk of cotton or COrll, or an egg

would pay this tax on an acre, one fruit tree or a row

of cabbage fifty feet long, or a bushel of turnips wOllld

pay this tax on a hundred-acre farm. The people of all

communities are taxed to pay for jails and court houses

and to prosecute criminals, and there is hardly ever a

word of complaint, but when a small tax for education,

the greatest crime reducer the world has ever known, is'

proposed, some people claim that they are ruined and

are opposed to such despotic methods.

.

The man is wiser and leaves his boy a richer heritage,

who puts his labor on his land in the boy, than is the man

210

who puts the labor of his boy in land and money. We are making progress in education in this county, but we are not doing what we can do or should do. I shall be glad for each one of you to take this question unto yourself and if the school conditions in your district are not what they should be, then you can rest assured that the blame is partly on you.
I beg to sum up this report with the following suggestions: That we work even harder in the future to make our school buildings not only a place where school can be kept, but a place where children delight to stay because it is attractive. Let us strive to get the very best teachers to train our children. Let us improve our . school grounds, and plant trees to make them attractive. Let us equip our school rooms with comfortable seats, desks, charts, maps and globes.
All these things are being done in some localities, but we wish to stress the importance of having it done in all. Our enrollment and average attendance is not as good as it should be, and we can greatly improve this by taking an active part in the educational affairs of our county.
Trusting that you will give this report due consideration, I am,
Yours for better schools, E. S. HAMILTON, C. S. C. Wilcox County.

WILKINSON COUNTY.

J. S. Wood, C. S. C.

To Gra~~d Jury, Wilkinson County.

As County School Commissioner for this county, I submi,t the following report covering the past year's work of this office:
211

The schools are not in that prosperous condition that we all would like to see them. In my opinion, the schools are not wha.t they should be on account of the interest or ;want of interest taken by the patrons of the county, and in some cases on account of inexperience or inefficiency of the teacher. I think that a large majority of our teachers are devoting all their energy and talent in advancing the school affairs of the community in which they teach. I would ask that each and every member of your body take an interest in the educational affairs of this .county, and assist in making all the citizens of the county see the importance of improving the schools and bringing them up to the best standard possible, else we will soon fall behind and every county will pass us in this the, most important matter before our people. I would ask that you look at the figures given in this report as to the number of white children in school and the number of colored children in school. The school census shows that we have a good many more white children in the county
/
than of the opposite race. Our people should open their eyes to these conditions, and rapidly, systematically and earnestly correct the same. Our State School Superintendent say that a "one-teacher school," regardless of how good the teacher may be, is a poor school at best. We aU know that the larger the sC,fool and the greater number of teachers, the better the schools, and more interest is taken by the pupils and patrons. It is manifest, that the best way to have good schools and good teachers is to consolidate the schools. How to do this, on account of our bad roads and scarcity of funds, is a question that takes a good deal of thought and work. The Board of Education cannot accomplish this unless the people generally ask for it and assist in its operations. Nothing succeeds like success, and nothing can be a success unless
212

the' people who are to be benefited pull together and

assist in making it a success.

We had a free term of six months, beginning on the

first Monday in November last. We have 34 white

schools with 38 'teachers, and an enrollment of 1,178, and

an average attendance of 646; 22 colored schools with 24

teachers, and an enrollment of 1,312, and an average attendance of 655. The number of all these schools should

be reduced one third. While the Board of Education has the authority to reduce the number of schools,

yet when one is once established, it clluses friction and

dissatisfaction to discontinue the same; and unless people win rise above any petty differences and pull for the

best schools possible, the Board hesitates to cause friction and dissatisfiaction among them.

RERORTS OF THE UNIVERSITY AND ITS BRANCHES.
I"
THE UNIVERSITY.
RON. JERE M. POUND,
State School Commissioner of Gem'gia:
DEAR SIR :-1 have ihe honor of submitting my report for the scholastic year 1909-1910, for the University.
The enrollment in the University has been larger than ever it was in its history. This is true of the University as a whole and also of the students instructed on the campus at Athens.
In the University at Athens we have enrolled 531 as against 504 of last year. As you will have reports from each executive of the separate schools of the system, I will not repeat the information in regard to them.
The conduct of the students and the diligence which they have shown in their work are worthy of the highest praise. I desire to extend in this report my thanks to the Faculty, and especially to Dean Snelling, for the painstaking and untiring efforts, which they have exercised in the management of the UnIversity, and for the careful concern which they have exhibited for the welfare and advancement of the students.
The students have shown an excellent spirit and seem to realize the responsibility which rests upon them as young Georgians preparing for service to the State. To them as to the Faculty I extend my thanks.
The material growth of the University has advanced during the year. Several small bodies of land have been
214

purchased, which were included in the original outer boundaries, but to which the State had not previously acquired title.
We have now acquired the 1and necessary to carry out the plans for enlargement as laid down by Chancellor Hill.
There are several small bodies of land yet unpurchased, but these are now held at such high prices that we have not believed it wise to buy them, especially as our resources are so limited. As this land was bought with money given. by the city of Athens and by generous friends, it is a cause for pride that such generosity has been shown toward education.
Through the liberality of-the Commissioners of Clarke county a valuable contribution has been made of work in grading on the athletic field.
Work is progressing on the Alumni-Y. M. n A.
building, which will be used for a gymnasium, as well as for a'Y. M. C. A., and which will include a number of living rooms. This building when completed will be most useful as a center for student life. It is large, costly and will, in all probability, not be completed for several years. Enough of it will be furnished under present contract to make it useful and we can wait on the future for its completion.
The fine old Lucas mansion is being prepared as a residence for the Dean, and will be in the neighborhood of the Alumni-Y. M. C. A. building so that the Dean may be in close touch with the student life.
During the next year we hope to be able to extend the undergraduate course of instruction by introducing the studies necessary to complete the requirements for a degree of Bachelor of Science in Commerce.
215

This specialization will meet the needs of the largest class of our citizens at present unprovided for in the University. It has become recognized that much information can be given which will assist a young man in commercial pursuits, without sacrificing any mental discipline, by giving special direction to his studies.
The needed additions to the present curriculum are for instruction in law and businEss methods.
The undergraduate courses in the University are of such excellence as to cause her bachelor degrees to be highly regarded. It seems that the time has come to strengthen the graduate and professional work of the University. Our thought and effort will be directed to this end.
Much has been done for the work in law, and we feel that in this profession we have advanced as rapidly -and as far as it is wise at this time.
In other lines we hope to be able to make equal advancement, and we expect to endeavor to do this.
In the charter of the University, written one hundred and twenty-five years ago, we find these words:
"It should therefore be among the first objects of those who wish well to the national prosperit~ to encourage and support the principles of religion and morality, and early to place the youth under the forming hand of society, that by instruction they may be moulded to the love of virtue and good order. Sending them abroad to other communities for education will not answer these purposes, is. too humiliating an acknowledgement of the ignorance or inferiority of our own, and will always be the cause of so great foreign attachments, that upon principles of policy it is inadmissible."
216

After all of these years and changes we would not change one word of this wise and patriotic utterance.
Yours respectfully, D. C. BARROW, Chancellor.

HON. JERE M. POUND,
State School Commissioner, City.
DEAR SIR: I have the honor to submit the following report of the Georgia School of Technology for the scholastic year, 1909-1910:
ATTENDANCE.
The growth of the Institution continues, and it is my pleasure to report for the current year the largest enrollment of students in the history of the school. 593 students have been enrolled, and in addition, 54 in the Summer School and 153 in the Night School, making a grand total for the year of 800 students. Shortly after the opening of the session, we found it necessary to publish in the local dailies that the limit of attendance had been reached and no more students could be accommodated. As stated in my last report, the present plant of the school will not properly accommodate over 500 students, and enlargement is vital not merely for expansion but for present needs.

HEALTH AND DISCIPLINE.
The health of the student body has been ~ery good, due primarily to the excellent preventive service rendered by the S~hool Surgeon. Several incipient epidemics of minor diseases have been promptly checked, and no serious or fatal illness tas occurred. It is my pleasure to report that our hopes and plans for a ne~
219

and adequate Infirmary have been realized, and that during the present summer a new Hospital will be erected. This prospective building is largely the result of active interest manifested by the Women's Clubs of Georgia, particularly the local chapter. Several members of the local chapter interested Mrs. J. B. Whitehead; of Atlanta, in the project, and she consented to give $5,000 toward erecting the building, to be named " The Joseph Brown Whitehead Hospital," in memory of her late husband. Subscriptions in money and building materials have been made by other friends of the school, and these donations will make it possible for us to erect a building costing approximately $15,000, and capable of ac.commodating some 30 patients. In addition, provision will be made for a surgeon's 0ffice and operating room, nurse's quarters, and all other appliances and conveniences of a thoroughly modern Hospital.
As usual, we have had a year of fine results and conduct on the part of the student body, and it is my pleasure to commend most heartily the development of higher ideals among the students at large. Several illnstrations of this fact have occurred during the year which are most encouraging, and which are indicative of an esprit de corps, which we believe to be unsurpassed in college circles. The record for good conduct on the part of the students, we regard as the school's greatest triumph.
ACADEMIC AND ENGINEERING RESULTS.
Relative to the academic work of the session, a special committee from the Faculty was appointed -to investigate the subject thoroughly, and report to the Faculty the result of its efforts. This report was submitted shortly before the close of the session, and was very. instructive and suggestive. It thoroughly analyzed the
220

whole academic question, as well as results obtained in'

this year and former years, and will form a basis for

"

improved methods and consequently better results in the

future. The percentage of deficiencies in the first term

of the session was somewhat l~rger last year in several

Departments, but the work of the second term was a

decided improvement, and was probably the best term's

result in the school's history. As a whole, the work of

the year has been most gratifying, and through systema-

tizing above referred to, we have even greater hopes for

the future. One of the chief contributary causes to this

outlook is the election of Dr. W. H. Emerson as Dean

of the Faculty. By training, by disposition and experi-

ence, he is eminently qualified for the office of Dean, and

his value in the office will develop as enlargement of his

teaching force will permit him to give adequate time to

his new duties.

The strong spirit of co-operation between the Fac-

ulty and students to which I referred in my last report,

has been' even more successfully developed, and the re-

sults are consequently beneficial and gratifying. During

the year, the Faculty put into effect a student advisory

system, which promises good results. At the beginning

of the school year, each student' in the college will be

assigned to some member of the Faculty, who will act as

his advisor during the year. Each advisor will have

regular hours when the student -can consult with him

relative to any phase of his student life, whether in re-

gard to his studies, his finances, his social life or any

other matter which concerns him. It is contemplated

that the number of students assigned to each advisor will

not be so large as to prevent his advising frequently and

fully with each one. Good results, particularly in

studies, are anticipated as a result of this innovation.

221

As authorized by the Board of Trustees in June, 1909, valuable and necessary additions were made to the Department of Mechanical Engineering and Civil Engineering, and the work of these two Departments has been constantly improved. By donation and purchase, the equipment of both the Experimental and Electrical Laboratories were also added to.
Two rooms in the Electrical Building were altered and equipped for Architectural purposes, and this Department has made splendid progress in its new quarters, under the direction of Prof. F. P. Smith, who succeeded Prof. P. A. Hopkins in September, 1909.
By donation and purchase, the number of books in the School Library has been contantly and substantially increased, and this Department has properly become the very center of college life.
Additions to the equipment of other Departments have been constantly made, although the need of more adequate equipment is pressing.
To meet actual demands, due to the largest" college classes in our history, the teaching force of the school was increased by four additional Instructors, as follows:
One Instructor in Chemistry and Physics. One Instructor in Mathematics. One Instructor in Machine Shop. Part time of an Insfructor in Modern Languages.
GRADUATES.
The demand for our graduates is greater than ever before, due to the marvelous development of the States natural resources. The demand for these graduates is much greater than the supply, 'and it is hoped that the school's facilities will be so enlarged that it can more
222

adequately supply the State's insistent and growing demand for Industrial- leaders. Degrees of Bachelor ofScience Jlre given in Mechanical, Electrical, Civil and Textile Engineering, Engineering Chemistry, Chemistry and Agriculture.
FACULTY.
Forty-nine Professors, Instructors and officials have conducted the various Departments of the Institution. It is a matter of how much regret and decided disadvantage to the sehool that the low salaries we are compelled to offer, necessitates frequent changes in the teaching force. Experienced teachers cannot be secured at the ~alaries offered, and the inexperienced Instructors, fresh from College, whom we find it necessary to engage, in most instances, receive better inducements elsewhere at the end of their first year than we can offer. While the teaching force has increased somewhat during the current session, actual conditions were little improved, due to the large student enrollment already referred to. Again, it is my painful duty to report that most ef the sections were too large for one teacher properly to instruct, and this fact will permanently hinder the proper accomplishment of scientific work, unless remedied. Furthermore this numerically incompetent force prevents the expansion and development of the curriculum and thus militates against the best interest of the school.
It is my pleasure to report that the Faculty has worked in entire harmony during the year, and has rendered most effective and satisfactory service. Practically every member was over-worked, but no complaints were made, and every teacher has met the demands made upon him cheerfully and zealously. The following are
223

the Departments of the Institution with their official heads:
Mathematics-Prof. F. Field. Engineering Chemistry-Dr. W. H. Emerson. Mechanical Engineering-Prof. J. S. Coon. English-Prof. S. S. Wallace. Electrical Engineering-Prof. H. P. Wood. Civil Engineering-Prof. T. P. Branch. Experimental Engineering-Prof. J. N. G. Nesbit. Physics-Prof. J. B. Edwards. Drawing-Prof. J. S. Coon. Physical Culture-Dr. ,V. A. Jackson, Jr. Modern Languages-Dr. J. B. Crenshaw. Geology and Mineralogy-Prof. W. S. Kell. Textile Engineering-Prof. W. N. Randle. Architecture-Prof. F. P. Smith.
BUILDINGS.
All the buildings of the school are in good condition. Due to increased enrollment, particularly in the higher classes, additional class rooms were necessitated and early in the session the unfinished basement in the Chemical Laboratory was completed and equipped for recitati()n purposes, thereby ~adding two ,class rooms, an assaying room, two offices, and a small Geological museum.
Two rooms in the Electrical Building were altered and equipped for Architectural purposes. It is necessary to state, however, that due to the phenomenal growth of the Electrical Department the Department of Agriculture will be dispossessed of its quarters next
224

seSSIOn, and as yet it is not determined where it can be

housed. In addition, at least three classes are without

provision for recitation rooms for the approaching ses-

sion, and increased space for academic and shop pur-

poses has passed the desirable stage and has become an

absolute necessity. It is hoped that the Legislature, at

its approaching session, will provide for these needs, by

passing the bill appropriating $35,000 to the school for

building purposes; otherwise it will be necessary to cur-

tail the work of the Institution.

As already stated, a new Infirmary will be built dur-

ing the summer, largely through the generosity of Mrs.

J. B. Whitehead, whose generous donation will make

this memorial to her husband a possibility.

Mr. John D. Rockefeller, on "F'ebruary 18, 1909, do-

nated $50,000 on condition the school raise $25,000 addi-

tional, by March 1st, 1912, the total amount of $75,000

to be expended in the erection of a Y. M. C. A. building,

under the conditions set forth in Mr. Rockefeller's prop-

sition, Feb. 18th, 1910. An active canvass will be con-

ducted to raise the school's pro rata, during the next

few months, and it is confidently expected the amount

will be raised and a useful and ornamental Y. M. C. A.

building will be secured.

TUITION AND FEES.

Each county in the State is entitled to fifteen free scholarships. These scholarships will be awarded on the ground of e.xcellence in character and preparation, and time of entrance.
The amount of tuition charged to the excess of fifteen
. from a county of this State is $25 pernllnual sef\sion. "
225

c.

Residents of other States pay a tuition of $100 per year, in addition to the fees of $25 and $5, mentioned below.
Every student, of whatever place of residence, pays an annual fee of $25 to cover contingent expenses. Half of this amount is payable on entrance and the remainder on or before February 4th.
A contingent fee of $5 will be required to be deposited with the Treasurer on entrance, to cover injury done to college buildings, apparatus or furniture, which sum will be returned to the student on leaving, if not forfeited.
Until the above fees have been paid, no student will be allowed to participate in the duties and recitations of his class.
Text books and stationery may be purchased from the quartermasters.
Each student is required to have two suits of overalls, costing about $1.00 each.
NIGHT SCHOOL.
The Night School has enjoyed the most prosperous year of its existence. During the summer of 1909, an active local canvass for students was conducted, with the result that one hundred and fifty-three students have enrolled during the current session, Dnd the work accomplished has been unusually effective. These students represent an earnest and ambitious type of men who are willing to make real sacrifices in order to equip themselves better for life's duties. Seventeen courses have been offered in the trades and academi<;; work, and most of these courses have been taken advantage of by the ~tudent enrollment. The city council has continued its appropriation of $2,500 per annum for the support of the Night SchQol. .
226

SUMMER SCHOOL.
The Summer School of 1909 conducted under the new regulations authorized by the Board, was unusually successful, and not only were a number of prospective stu, dents prepared for entrance, but also a number of deficient students took the work, which enabled them to Qvercome their deficiencies and to begin the session 1909-10 with a clean academic record. This latter feature of the work will be especially developed, and it is confidently believed will prove of much value to students, in enabling a larger percentage of them to graduate.
NEW PROPOSED ENTRANCE REQUIREMENTS.
At the meeting of the local Board of Trustees, April 27th, 1910, a complete plan of proposed new entrance requirements to the Apprentice and Freshman Classes, as approved by the Faculty, was presented, said plan to take effect, beginning September, 1911. The Board of Trustees has the scheme under consideration, and will shortly render its decision in the matter.
ALUMNI.
It has been our effort during the year to keep closely III touch with the Alumni, to develop a strong bond of union between them and the school. To this end, we have had our College Y. M. C. A. Secretary, Mr. Turner, send to each alumnus a monthly letter, giving a detailed and interesting' account of all the current happenings of the school, such as Y. M. C. A. items, Athletic notes, donations, of various kinds academic records, social items" and in general, the current history of the shool year. Gratifying responses have been made by the graduates, and largely as a result of above effort, the largest alumni
227

gathering in the school's history was present during Commencement. In particular, the Class of 1903 held a reunion and indicated its intention to memorialize itself on the campus by erecting a handsome drinking fountain.
IN CONCLUSION.
The school, by reason of its location and accomplishment, has large possibilities of expansion, which its present limited income will not permit us to take advantage of. It has justified itself as a most important factor III the development of the State's splendid natural resources. Increased appropriations would even more largely be justified in enabling the school to supply a larger and more nearly adequate number of trained leaders in Georgia's present remarkable industrial development. The advantages are sufficient to attract industrial leaders. If the State .does not supply them, other sections will, and we do not wish our young men to be merely hewers of wood and drawers of water.
Catalogs containing full information concerning the school will be mailed to all interested applicants.
Respectfully submitted, K. G. MATHESON, President.

ST'ATE NORMAL SCHOOL, ATHENS, GA.
HaN. JERE M. POUND, S. S. C.,
Atlanta, Ga.
DEAR SIR:-In response to your request and in accordance with the law, we are submitting to you a brief report of the State Normal School at Athens, Ga., for the sixteenth annual session.
The students registered this year, to May 1, number 652; the pupils in the Muscogee Elementary School, 166; making a total enrollment for the year of 818.
As usual we have been obliged to shut our doors in the face of young people who have been anxious to come here for larger scholarship and a better preparation for teaching.
The student body represents 111 counties. Two hundred and twenty-two of these students have already had experience in teaching and have come here, before or after their country schools were taught, in order to stand a better examination and earn a higher grade of license; but also for the sake of a richer, nobler preparation for work in the school room. Seventy-five of these teachers held first-grade licenses when they came; 97 second-grade licenses and 54 third-grade licenses.
The direct helpfulness of this school to the teachers already at work in the common schools makes a record fhat we do not believe is duplicated by any other school in America.
And another thing of unique interest is true; two hundred and twelve of these students are young people who have themselves earned the mone.y they are spending here for education and training. It is safe to say that
230

\

they are not here with vague, indefinite purposes, and

that they are not idling or dawdling away their oppor-

tunities. They are heartsick and heart-hungry to know

something more than they now know and be something

better than they are alre'ady. It is a noble contingent. ,,,

They are aolessing to the school, and year by year a ben-

ediction to Georgia.

Fifty-one per cent. of our students are the children

of farmers.

The calls on us by Principals, Superintendents and

.School Boards for teachers since May of last year number

211. The school is gaining steadily upon the respect and

confidence of the school authorities of the State. In order

to meet the call on us by letters alone, for teachers in the

common schools, our graduating class would need to be

five times as large as it usually is.

Since the founding of the school sixteen ye-ars ago

8,674 students have registered here for better preparation

for service in the common schools of the State. More

than 8,000 of these have gone away from this school to

teach in the communities and counties of the State; which

is to say, this school has already reached every county of

the State and -almost every community of every county.

The total number of graduates to June, 1910, is 524,

representing 100 counties.

.

It can be modestly said that this school covers

Georgia like the dew. And yet Georgia is not doing all

that needs to be done in the training of teachers for her

common schools. Other southern States are spending

money liberally for training of teachers; ; North Oarolimt

$123,000 a year; South Carolina $152,000; Kentucky

$395,000; Missouri $1,800,000. Georgia is spending only

$84,000. Missouri has about twice the taxable wealth of

Georgia but she is spending more than twenty times as

231

much as we are spending for the trainingo teachers in Georgia. A shabby school is expensive, and disastrous and a poor teacher is a public calamity. So far our policy in Georgia is the penny-wise pound-foolish policy. The Normal schools in Georgia ought to be four times as l>arge; the appropriations ought to be four times as great; the graduates ought to be four times as numerous in order to satisfy the calls on us by letters alone for teachers.
There are 33 teachers in the Faculty; that is to say, the teaching force of the school has increased 300 per cent. during the last ten years. Ther-e are 41 officers and teachers. The appropriations given to us by the State have increased less than 200 per cent since 1900.
There are three buildings devoted to teaching alone; there are four buildings used for boarding students and for dining hall purposes.
Our new Carnegie Library, costing about $25,000, is just coming into completion and will be occupied September 1. It will be in charge of a trained librarian and will immensely multiply the culture values of student life here.
Our Infirmary is small, but so far the school has escaped epidemics. Health conditions. are almost perfect here.
Our dairy barn and piggery, with our dairy herd of 26 cows and 60 odd pigs, furnish for our dining hall al~ the milk, cream, butter and pork that we need. Our 20 acres of farm land turn into our pantries and barns about $3,000 worth of vegetables, forage crops, etc., regularly. In this way we have been able to keep the living expenses of students here lower than would seem possible, the great increase of prices for the necessities of life considered.
232

The Young Georgian Club is a new and unique organization in the school. It is composed of 100 students and faculty members, who meet regularly on Mondays at noon for an hour's informal, comfortable discussion of vital topics. This year the time has been spent upon a study of Rural Life Conditions; signs of decay, signs of progress; causes and consequences; curative and reparative remedies. One hundred and eleven counties of Georgia are represented in the student body this year. The detailed studies and reports of conditions in our State have yielded a body of valuable and stimulating information. The rising fever and fervor of patriotic citizenship in this club is inspiring and helpful.
THE CORRESPONDENOE SOHOOL.
Mr. Peter F. Brown, our English teacher here, will also have entire charge of the Correspondence School, with Mr. W. V. Whittenberg as assistant. The work of our correspondents will pass the inspection of the various members of our Faculty, who will enter proper credits for the work done, and such credits will be recognized whenever the correspondents enter this school. Special circulars will be sent to all who apply for information concerning these Correspondence Courses. Charges are moderate. Address all communications to E. C. Branson, President, State Normal School, Athens, Ga.
We feel also that the authorities of the State can well afford to deal generously with the school in supporting the attempt to reach out a kindly helping hand in every direction to the young people who cannot afford to attend this school or any other school. The State Legislature could not possibly invest $5,000 to any better advantage than by helping on this extension work of the State Normal School. So far we have gone into this work with-
233

out one cent of money either from the Board of Trustees or from the State Legislature.
The usefulness of this department is already so great and the call on us is so pleading and pitiful that the Correspondence School must be enlarged, and the State Legislature must help us to help a thousand teachers in Georgia whp are unable to attend either this school or any other.
Respectfully submitted, E. C. BRANSON, President.

GIRLS NORMAL AND INDUST'RIAL COLLEGE.
Milledgeville, Qa., May 31, 1910.

HON. JERE M. POUND, State School Commissioner, Atlanta, Ga.
DEAR Sm:-In response to your letter, I take pleasure in presenting the following report of the Georgia Normal and Industrial College:

ATTENDANCE.
During the past year, we have enrolled students from 111 counties, the total number of students being 549 (this does not include the younger students in the training school.) The attendance this year is the largest in the history of the institution. Besides this, hundreds of young ladies have been refused admission to the college because of a lack of room.

COST OF ATTENDANCE.

The entire cost of 'attendance in the institution for the full session of nine months, including living expenses in the dormitories, laundry, matriculation fee, books and stationery, is about $125. This is a lib~ral estimate. Tuition is free to Georgia students. the exact cost is as follows:

1. Board, (including laundry) nine months

$99.00

2. Matriculation or entrance fee_______________ 10.00

3. Tuition, f.ree to Georgia girls

_

4. Books, about______________________________ 10.00

235

NEEDS OF THE COLLEGE.
The college is in need of additional buildings. The class rooms and dormitories are crowded far beyond their proper capacity, and there is an urgent de,mand for expansion. It is hoped that the General Assembly will make an appropriation for the ere<Jtion of another buildmg.
EQUIPMENT.
The value of the buildings and grounds of the Georgia Normal and Industrial College amounts to more than $250",000.00. The present equipment is as follows:
1. CAMPUS. The College campus consists of twentythree acres in the central part of the city of Milledgeville. Surrounded by well shaded streets and adorned with stately buildings, with well kept lawns and with a luxuriant growth of tress, the campus attracts universal admiration.
2. MANSION DORMITORY. This magnificent building . was erected in 1838 as a residence for the governors of
Georgia when Milledgeville was the capital of the State. For thirty years, it was the Executive Mansion of the State of Georgia and' as such it served as the home of Governors Gilmer, Charles J. MacDonald, Georgl;l W. Crawford, George W. Towns, Howell Cobb, Joseph E. Brown, James Johnson and Charles J. Jenkins. It is now used as a college dormitory and as a residence of the president of the college.
3. THE MAIN COLLEGE BUILDING is a commodious edifice four stories high. It was erected in 1891. It is used exclusively for teaching and class room purposes and is situated in the center of the college campus.
4. THE ANNEX DORMITORY was erected in 1892. It is connected with/the Mansion Dormitory by a short arcade.
236

5. THE ATKINSON HALL DORMITORY was erected in 1896. It is a large brick building and accommodateR nearly two hundred boarding students.
6. THE CHAPELL INDUSTRIAL BUILDING was completed in May, 1907. The building is beautiful in architecture and affords additional class ~ooms for use of the Physical Training and Normal Departments, the Domestic Arts Department, and Domestic Science Department. As soon as the college is able to attain additional class rooms, it is planned that all of the rooms of this building should be devoted to the work of Household Economics-:-that is, to work related to' the home, including both Domestic Arts (sewing, dressmaking, millinery) and Domestic Science (cooking,' study of foods, home sanitation, house bacteriology, household chemistry, household decoration, and the care of the sick).
7. THE LAMAR HALL DORMITORY was completed in September 1908 and is considered one of the handsomest college dormitories in the south. It is attractive in the interior furnishings as well as in the exterior 'architecture. The rooms are well ventilated, well lighted, and furnished in simple but refined taste. In addition to the ordinary furniture, each r90m contains a small closet and also each room is supplied with a lavatory, having both hot and cold water. This dormitory accommodates 136 students, besides having apartments for the matron.
PURPOSE OF THE COLLEGE.
The object of the State in establishing and supporting this school is to provide 'for the young women of Georgia an institution in which they may get such special instruction and training as will prepare them to earn their own living by the vocation of teaching, or by those industrial and fine arts that are suitable for women to pursue.

Suhsidiary to these two main objects the institution also teaches those branches of learning that constitute a general good education. It furthermore instructs and trains its pupils in those household arts that are essential to the complete education of every woman, whatever her calling in life may be, or in whatever sphere of society she may move.
In other words, the purpose of the college IS to prepare Georgia girls:
1. To do intelligent work as teachers, according to the best methods known to modern pedagogics.
. 2. To earn their own livelihood by the practice of some one or other of those industrial arts suitahle for women to follow.
3. To earn their own livelihood as instructors III music or in fine arts.
4. To exert an uplifting and refining influence on family and society by means of a cultured intellect, which can only be obtained by a systematic education in the higher branches of learning.
5. To be skillful and expert in those domestic arts that lie at the foundation of all successful housekeeping and home-making.
To accomplish these several educational purposes, the courses of study pursued in the school are divided, in a general way, into the principal departments, namely:
1. The Normal Department.
2. The Collegiate Department.
- 3. The Industrial Department.
4. The Music and Fine Arts Department.
238

!
NORMAL DEPARTMENT.
General Plan.
The purpose of this department is to prepare young women for the business of teaching. In the proper preparation of the teacher there are three principal elements, namely:
1. Broad and accurate scholarship. 2. Professional knowledge. 3. Skill in the practice of teaching.
The first of these requisites, namely, broad and accurate scholarship, this college undertakes to give in the course of collegiate study as stated in detail in separate catalogue.
The second requisite, namely professional knowledge, it undertakes to give in the study of Psychology and Pedagogy, in the junior and senior classes, as stated in the catalogue of the college.
The third requisite, namely, skill in the practice of teaching, it undertakes to give by a thorough course of practical training in teaching the children of the various grades in the Model School and by instruction in methods of teaching.
Course of Study.
The course of study includes all of the studies of the Collegiate Department, except that in the junior year Chemistry is omitted, and in the senior year either Trigonometry or Latin is elected, the other omitted. In the place of these omissions a second year of Freehand drawing and the professional courses as outlined below are required.

COLLEGIATE DEPARTMENT.
The object of the Collegiate Department is twofold: 1. To give to those young women who wish to prepare themselves for the vocatior:. of teaching that broad, liberal and accurate scholarship which is requisite to the education of every teacher. 2. To give those young women who have the time, taste and capacity for it, that high education that develops a cultivated womanhood. No attempt is made to advance the standard of learning beyond what is' already established in leading SoutherIL female colleges, but in thoroughness and accuracy it is belieted the work of this school is superior to anything yet done in 'any higher female educational institution in Georgia.
INDUSTRIAL DEPARTMENT.
This department includes:
1. The Business Course. 2. The Course in Sewing and Dressmaking. 3. The Course in Millinery. '4. The Course in Industrial Art. 5 The Course in Domestic Science.
The Business' Course embraces the thorough practical teaching of stenography, typewriting, bookkeeping, business forms and customs.
The Course in Sewing and Dressmaking includes instruction in plain or domestic sewing, cutting and fitting, finished dressmaking, and a normal course in dressmaking.
The Course in Millinery teaches the art of covering and trimming hats of all kinds for girls and women.
240

1
The Industrial Ad Course includes free-hand draw-
ing, color-study, design, modeling in clay, instrumental drawing, basketry, etc.
DEPARTMENT OF DOMESTIC SCIENCE.
Character and Aims of the Work.
That group of subjects which bears upon the life and administration of the house is coming into great promb;J.ence in educational work, and is known variously as household science, household economics, science of the home and domestic science. As the last names is the one generally used in schools which teach these subjects, it is adopted here for the sake of convenience. The name is not as formidable as it sounds, and the work itself is simply an attempt to organize and formulate the best and fullest knowledge that can be obtained, both from investigation and experience, concerning the wise and economic administration of the home. It includes some knowledge of Chemistry and Physics as applied to the operations of the household, of Physiology and Hygien~ with special reference to the food question, household economics, home sanitation, sewing and some instruction in home nursing and emergencies. It aims to put this systematized knowledge of easier, better and more healthful conditions of living within the re-ach of many women who must be home-makers, instead of living it as heretofore in the hands of the few who are especially empowered for this work by reason of unusual aptitude or favorable opportunities. It does not claim to take entirely the place of experience, but it does make the gaining of that experience a much easier and happier process for all concerned. In teaching the principles underlying healthful cooking and sanitary living, domestic science is
241

lifting home-making out of the realm of drudgery, and making it intelligent, attractive and effective.
DEPARTMENT 01<' MUSIC.
The Georgia Nonnal and Industrial College offers splendid advantages in this department of female accomplishments. Only able teachers, those well versed in the best conservatory methods, are employed, and the course of instruction and training is thorough and complete. The wants and capacities of different pupils are carefully considered, and exercises for technique and pieces for a'sthetic culture selected accordingly. Numerous opportunities are given for these auxiliaries, almost as essential as good instruction, namely, hearing good music, playing before audiences.
The music rooms are of convenient size, well arranged, and are furnished with good ini3truments.
TERMS OF ADMISSION.
To be eligible to admission to the college a girl must be at least fifteen years old. She must be of good moral character and in sound physical health.
Persons desiring to enter the colleg'e should write to the president at Milledgeville for a form of application. This pape-r must be carefully filled out and signed by the applicant and mailed back to the president. Unless some reason appears to the contrary, he will in due time send to the applicant a certificate of admission to the college and assignment to a place in the dormitory. Applicants are examined for class admission after they reach Mill-edgeville.
UNIFORM DRESS.
Pupils are required to wear a uniform dress on all occasions while in attendance on the college. The several
242

suits devised for this purpose, while very inexpensive, are exceedingly pretty and becoming.
Full instructions in regard to the several suits, with illustrative cuts, are given in the pamphlet issued by the college.

ANNUAL REPORT OF THE UNIVERSITY SUMMER SCHOOL
BY
T. J .. WOOFTER, Superintendent.
To the Sta,te School Com,mis~1:oners:
Complying with your request, I beg leave to submit the following report:
The seventh regular session of the University Summer School was held June 28 to July 30, 1909. The total enrollment was 367, nearly all of whom were te.achers in the common and public schools. This was an increase over the enrollment of the preceding year, and I am glad to report that the work of these teachers was very satisfactory. More remained through the entire session and more pursued systematic courses to the end. Contact with these teachers from year to year convinces that the quality of teaching must be steadily improving in the common schools of Georgia, this in the face of little or no increase in salaries.
The faculty was composed of able teachers selected from various faculties over the State and elsewhere} each one a strong specialist ill some field so that the students came in contact with the best in methods and' ideals. In this way, teachers who are at work in the field were strengthened in scholarship and improved in professional preparation during vacation. A systematic course of study,has been planned with home courses running through three or four years offering a regular normal school course. The summer school aims to im-
244

,
I
prove the teachers now in the field. The expenses are mmImum. The railroads give reduced rates. All these' things are necessary, for the teachers of Georgia receive such meager salaries that few can afford extended preparation unless specially aided. The small appropriation of $5,000 'annually is thus aiding, and is so doing a great work. The sentiment among the students waS unanimous favoring a longer session. Many petitions came in asking for an extension from five to six or eight weeks. The school passed resolutions to the same effect. This should be done gradually. We therefore petition you to urge the Legislature to increase the appropriation to $6,000, that the next session may be ~xtended to six weeks.
Respectfully submitted, T. J. WOOFTER,
Supt. Summer School, and Director School of Education.

THE GEORGIA STATE COLLEGE OF AGRl CULTURE.
The activities of the Georgia State College of Agriculture may be summarized under three heads-teaching, investigation and extension. It may naturally be concluded that the main function of 'the college is teaching, and in a sense this is correct, though this phase of its work is not more important, relatively speaking, than that of research and dissemination. An efficient course of training can only be established and maintained where investigation constitutes an important part of the work of the institution. The present is an age of remarkable progress; problems of a fundamental character crowd close ~pon the heels of each other, and these economic questions can only be solved and made a part of the specific knowledge of the rising generation when those charged with the training of the youth of the State in any special field are actively engaged in endeavoring to find a solution for the most important of these problems. In view of the universal campaign of education inaugurated and now accepted as a part of the policy of the State and of the nation, the'dissemination of knowledge for the uplift of the population in general becomes necessary, and since only a small proportion of the people of h given State may attend the institution, the emphasizing of extension work is to be expected. A college of agriculture may serve its constituency very efficiently through extension teaching. The importance of extension work and the service which it may be made to confer upon the popn1ation in general are not appreciated as they should be,
246

but as a matter of fact, this phase of the activity of a col-
lege of agriculture is quite as important and essential as that of teaching and research work.
ATTENDANCE.
The attendance on the college for the session 19091910 has been very good, a commendable increase in the regular courses being shown. The number of students in the four-year COl1l'se was 5:3. There were 16 elective students in agriculture, 29 in the one-year course, 4 in the three months' course, 5:3 in the Cotton School, and 43 in the School of ]'orestry, making a total of 198. The work of the College seems to be attracting favorable attention both at home and abroad since the students were well distributed over the State, while two came from England, one from the Phillipines, one from China and one from British India.
GRADUATES.
]'ive men graduated with the degree of B. S. in agriculture from the University of Ge6rgia in June, 1909. One of these men is now assistant in the Department of Cotton Industry in the College; one is professor of agriculture in the ninth district agricultural school at Clarkesville; one is a plant breeding expert for one of the largest seed firms in the South; one is with the Armour Fertilizer Works; and one is principal of a High School. These young men are receiving salaries of $1,000 to $1,200 and are serving the best agricultural interests of the State. They are demonstrating the efficiency which training in agriculture may confer, and the readiness with which these 'young men found positions indicates the growing demand for trained experts in agriculture. The College
247

is now prepared to train :qlen as instructors in the agricultural and secondary schools of the State as rapidly as they are called for. There is no service which the institution can render of greater benefit than this since it will make possible the introduction of agriculture into the secondary schools, which all admit is of great desideratum. This has not been accomplished in the past because a man with the right point of view and the special training necessary has not been available to fill the position. Teachers can and will be trained for the public schools and for many other purposes as well, but the foregoin~ will indicate how the work of the College may be correlated with the work of the schoo}s in a manner which will . be peculiarly helpful at this stage of development.
ADDITIONS TO STAFF AND EQUIPMENT.
A fairly liberal appropriation for the maintenance of the College was made by the last General Assembly and the Board of Trustees have been able to make material improvements in several directions. The consideration extended to the institution by the Legislature is fully appreciated by all connected with it.
The following additions have been made to the staff: A professor of veterinary medicine and an adjunct professor of agricultural chemistry. As a result of these appaintmen~s, instruction in yeterinary medicine and agricultural chemistry have become essential features of . the course offered to Sophomore, Juniors, and Seniors. It is needless to say that there are no subjects of relatively greater importance to students in the College ot Agriculture than these and the work of the College has been materially strengthened by these additions' to the staff.
248

The question of adequately equipping the splendid
building erected as the home of the College has been a
serious one from the beginning. Last year something like $40,000 was expended for this purpose, and $12,000 has been spent during the present year. Of the foregoing $16,000 is represented by farm receipts. Offices for the veterinarian and chemist and the private and student laboratories associated with each department have been equipped with the most modern apparatus. A gas plant has been installed and a seminar room fitted up for advanced students; a drawing room established in connection with the department of farm mechanics; arrange ments made for the erection of a barn on the College farm, and substantial additions made to the equipment of the departments previously established. The life of an institution such as this depends on efficiently equipped laboratories, and while the Board of Trustees feel they have received full value for the expenditures made, they also believe that the equipment secured is of the latest and most desirable character.
EXTENSION TEACHING.
The Legislature of 1909 appropriated $10,000 to the College of Agriculture for the organization of a department of extension teaching. This money became available on January 1, 1910, and five men have been appointed to carryon this important work. There is a director of extension who is also an expert in agronomy and animal husbandry; a professor of school extension whose work is carried on in co-operation with the Bureau of Plant Industry of the U. S. Department of Agriculture; an in structor in dairy husbandry; in horticulture and trucking; and III cotton industry. r:L'hese five men, each an
249

expert in his particular field, enable the College to cooperate with all the agencies interested in the dissemination of agricultural knowledge, and in the rural uplift movement now in progress. The unorganized condition of the American farm, the high cost of production and the decreasing yields per acre aTe matters which have attracted national attention. The necessity of cprrecting these conditions is apparent to every patriotic citizen. The question has been how to accomplish the work quickly and satisfactorily and, relatively speaking, at a minimum of cost. It is recognized by all who are familiar with what has been accomplished through the medium of agricultural science that information of a fundamental character has accumulated with surprising rapidity in the past few years, but it has not been brought to the attention of the public in a manner which could be appreciated. Extension teaching is the most important agency which has yet been devised fvi.."" carrying on this fundamental work, and the results secured to date indicate that it is destined to become one of the most important features of the work of the College.
The first effort of the extension department was directed towards holding itinerant or traveling schools. Owing to the newness of the work these were of but three days duration. Fourteen schools were held, the average registration per school being ninety, and the total attendance at the 100 sessions approximating 9,000. These schools were held in every Congressional district of the State, and the attendance shows how thoroughly the value of the training offered was appreciated by ,the people of the communities visited. Eighteen lectures and demonstrations were given at each cine of these schools. The lectures were on subjects as the mixing and application of
fertilizers, soil preparation, the selection of corn and cot-
250

ton, the feeding of farm live stock, the home garden and orchard, and the dairy herd and its management. Demonstrations were made on the selection of corn and c,otton, on dairying, spraying and pruning, and the treatment . of animals in health and disease. Every community visited has requested that a school lasting a week be held next year, and the enthusiasm generated by the work has been a surprise to i,ts most ardent advocates. The farmers of the State are in a receptive frame of mind, and through the agency of extension teaching the College will be able to serve its constituency more efficiently than . ever before in its history.
The professor of school extension is devoting his energy mainly at the present time to the organization of boys' and girls' clubs. This work is meeting with a hearty response and it is hoped that a large number of' county school fairs may be held this fall and a fine display made at the State Fair at Macon. Co-operation is being carried on through the agency of the extension department with truckers, fruit growers and stockmen, and in faet, with all who are trying to improve their practice.
In view of the success attending the initial movement, it seems especially desirable that work be inaugurated with women as soon as possible. This will call for the expenditure of something like $5,000 annually, and would require the employment of experts in domestic science and home sanitation. Since so much difficulty has been experienced in having agricultural instruction in the common schools properly inaugurated, it would seem desirable to increase the scope of the exte~sion department by an appropriation of $10,000 a year, which would enable the establishment at county seats of extension schools and school gardens for the training of the teachers of the respective counties. If an extension school were held
251

for one week where proper instruction and facilities could be provided, the difficulty of placing the desired inforniation concerning the best methods of procedure to introduce instruction in agriculture into the common schools .would disappear. There is no service which can be rendered the teachers of the State and in turn the rising generation of boys and girls of more imporlance than this; The College stands ready to do its part if the funds needed Clan be secured.
SUMMARY OF DEPARTMENTS.
The activitie,s of the several departments of the College during the year 1909-1910 may be summarized as follows:
In the soil physics laboratory arrangements are being made to undertake a study of the physical properties of the principal type soils of the State. This is a most important work, as it shows the present conditions of the soil and makes possible the determination of how existing defects may be corrected. Students are encouraged to bring soil from their home farms and examine it ,in . the laboratory and familiarize themselves with the best methods of procedure to follow in cultivating their land.
In the agronomy laboratory much attention is being given to seed testing and the selection of corn and other crops generally grown throughout the South. The importance of testing corn is shown by the fact that certain strains grown in the Demonstration Field have varied in yield from 37 to 162 bushels per acre.
The animal husbandry department inaugurated cOl.lrses of instruction in milk testing, separating and churning for the first time during the past winter. This department by reason of the dairy herd it maintains and the work in progress on the College farm is able to illus-
252

trate the economy of various methods of practice in a manner most helpful to the student.
In the department of cotton industry the students are brought in contact with the large number of hybrid plants under observation, and are familiarized with the methods being pursued to secure strains of cotton immune to anthracnose and other diseases which now cause heavy losses to our cotton planters.
The horticultural department has a large experimental orchard which the students have pruned and sprayed. There is also a garden in which they do practical work, and their laboratory training is of such a character as to teach them how to propagate plants.
In the farm mechanics laboratory the students have erected a hydraulic ram and cauied on systematic tests with it. They have also been familiarized with various types of pumps, engines and other machinery used about the farm, and have conducted many interesting experimental tests as well. In the drawing room they are preparing plans and specifications for barns and other outbuildings, and maps aI}d plats of vari'ous areas of the College farm.
In the forestry department experimental tests are in progress in plantings for the reclaiming of waste land.
Thus every department is carrying on some line of work which is made of special service and benefit to the student, while enabling the professor in charge to keep in touch with the progress of the work in his particular field, and possibly through his own industry to add some new fact to the world's knowledge concerning the work under his charge.
PUBLICATIONS.
Quite a variety of publications are put out by the College. The mailing list contains at least 25,000 names,
253

but the finances have been so restricted as to prevent as wide a distribution of bulletins as is desirable. During the year the following pamphlets have been printed and distributed:

THE DEMONSTRATION :B'IELD.

The demonstration field is now in excellent condition and the whole twenty acres is being utilized to illustrate primarily to the student body the relation of certain scientific truths to successful farm practice. In other words, it is the field laboratory of the College. As such, it not only gives emphasis to the work of the class room, but is proving one of the most important means of enabling the College to serve the people of the State, since the results secured therein may be prepared and distributed in pamphlet form. It now seems reasOltubly certain that a strain of C'otton ~has been developed resistant to anthracnose, and the same facts have been ascertained concerning the methods of procedure which should be inaugurated in selecting corn, which are of the utmost
254

importance and will enable consistent progress to be made along this line.
THE COLLEGE FARM.
. ,,~ The College farm has been materially improved. Some attention has been given to road building; much fencing has been done; a large number of gullies and washes filled; odd corners and idle land brought ~nder the plow; and a considerable area underdrained. The land has been thoroughly plowed and prepared for planting, and the economy of using large implements and a maximum of mule power with a minimum of hand labor fully demonstrated. The farm is C'onducted on the diversified plan. A crop rotation system is being inaugurated as rapidly as conditions will permit. Two crops per year are grown on some land, and some of the worn-out soils are being reclaimed through the plowing under of green crops. The work of the farm is thus being correlated with that of the College as rapidly as circumstances will permit.
LIVE STOCK.
Pure-bred herds of Holsteins and Jerseys are maintained on the farm, besides many grades. There is also a herd of twenty-five grade Herefords and one pure-bred Hereford bull. Two breeds of hogs" are kept, the Tamworth and Berkshire, and a beginning has been made in horse breeding. The beef cattle are run on land unfit for cultivation for the purpose of demonstrating how much waste land in the State may be made profitable as grazing areas. The dairy herd furnishes object lessons to the students in the handling of milk and in the manufacture of butter. The herds are managed on a commercial basis and furnish the individual specimens needed to
255

familiarize the students with the good and bad points in animals of quality and finish. The herds have been materially improved and owing to the importance of animal husbandry as an aid to reclaiming the worn lands of the State, this feature of the work will be as strongly emphasized as possible in the future.
THE HORTICULTURAL DEPARTMENT.
The horticultural department has some twelve acres of land in orchards. A variety of trees are grown for illustrative purposes. The department is well supplied with barns, spray houses and the other apparatus needed to give adequate instruction in this important subject. A commercial garden constitutes an important feature of the work. The operations of this department are thus being carried on on a sufficiently large scale to demonstrate the importance of trucking and the fruit industry as well, and to give the students that training and insight necessary to carryon these operations successfully when they return to the farm.
DEPARTMENT OF FORESTRY.
There are about 300 acres of wood land on the College farm. These areas serve as the basis of the instruction offered in the department of forestry. An arboretum containing about thirty-six varieties of native trees ha~
been developed, and thinning and reforesting work is in
progress as well. The school of forestry thus has excellent demonstrative facilities at its command.
CO-OPERATION.
Realizing that one institution cannot accomplish much by itself, the College is endeavoring in every PO~S1;
256

ble way to co-operate with all the agencies at work for the uplift and redirection of farm life. To this end 157 meetings were either held directly under the auspices of the College or attended by representatives of the same during the past year. Of these 22 were farmers' institutes; 55 were miscellaneous gatherings organ~zed through the agency of the Farmers' Union, Chambers of Commerce and various local organizations. In addition representatives were sent to the 50 teachers' institutes at the request of the county school commissioners, and to 30 meetings held in co-operation with the State Department of Entomology for the eradication of black root. Letters of advice were written to thousands of farmers, and numerous articles prepared for the press of the State.
FUTURE DEVELOPMENT AND NEEDS.
In order that the institution may serve most efficiently the students in attendance and those to come in the future, it is necessary that certain additions be made to its staff and equipment. Professors of agricultural pedagogy and bacteriology and entomology, and of dairying and poultry husbandry are needed. The annual loss from insects is enormous, and we are only beginning to suspect the intimate relation between successful farming and a proper understanding of bacterial life. Dairying and poultry husbandry are both, comparatively speaking, neglected industries in the State, though they might be made as'oufce of revenue amounting to millions of dollars annually. These subjects cannot be given that consideration or attention which their importance merits save by experts whose duty it is to carryon the necessary instruction and research in these respective fields, and a modern College of Agriculture could hardly be consid-
257
9-8. C.

ered efficiently manned or organized without competent men in char.ge of these several departments.
Owing to the in~reased cost of living and the relative large number of students coming from the rural districts, a dormitory should be provided for the cheap housing of the student body. The essential character of this suggestion needs no argument to sustain it. Already some of the departments in the building, which many thought originally too large, are overcrowded. It, will be necessary to erect a farm mechanics laboratory and a conservatory very speedily in order to relieve this congestion. The importance of the conservatory is worthy of emphasis since it would enable the prosecution of research work on the part of the students, both summer and winter, and would provide facilities of especial value in preparing illustrative material to be sent out to teachers' institutes and gatherings of farmers held in various parts of the State.
The most pressing immediate need of the College is to secure a fund for the further development of its extension department, so that work may be undertaken for women and the rural school teachers through the medium of extension s,chools. At least $5,000 annually should be appropriated for work with women, and $10,000 for the work with teachers. It is believed by those who have canvassed the situation carefully that there is no line of activity in which the College can engage which promises such large return to the people as the investment of the sum suggested for the purposes mentioned.

NORTH GEORGIA AGRICULTURAL COLLEGE,
Dahlonega, Georgia.
HON. J. M. POUND,
State School Corr'-'missioner,
Atlanta, Ga.
DEAR SIR: I have the honor to make the following brief report of the North Georgia Agricultural College for the current year.
We have enrolled 214 students, coming from about 70 counties in this State and from North and South Carolina, Tennessee, and Florida. The attractive mountain climate, and protective environment here will always be attractive features of this Institution. At the same time our isolation is also a great hindrance to the rapid development of the school. If we had proper railroad faciliites this would rapidly become one of the most popular institutions of the State. The fact that our boys here gain in weight from 20 to 25 pounds on an average a year shows how valuable the location is for physical development. Of course the military exercises and athletic training have a good deal to do with this. In addition to these the regular life that a boy leads here, the freedom from all dissipating tendencies also count for much.
As much as any school I know this institution stands for clean living. We have a very capable Faculty of consecrated men and women. Another beautiful thing observable here is that members of the Faculty work in absolute harmony and support each other in the most cordial manner.
259

With the beginning of the fall session 1910 we will require all applicants for the four college classes to comply with the standard for entrance fixed by the Carnegie Foundation. It has taken us naturally some time to bring the school up to these requirements. In order to meet the condition of necessary preparation for the Freshman class we have been compelled to organize three Sub-Freshman classes, known as the first, second, and third year preparatory classes. We find that with the class of boys who come her:e we can do, in three years, the work that is done in the average high school in four years time. For the past year we have had these three SubFreshman classes and the work they have accomplished has been very satisfactory. _
We sorely need here a new building for the agricultural and mining departments of the institution. Both of these departments have been greatly handicapped by being confined in the small and inadequate quarters that they now occupy. My hope is that the Legislature can be induced to give us a generous appropriation for a new industrial building. There are great possibilities in this section, both for agriculture and mining, and if we can properly equip young men for intelligent service in both these fields we can do a great service for the State. As a result of the establishment of the mining department there has already been located in these mountains one of the most promising industrial plants that I know. The indications now are that that plant will add very considerably to the taxable property of this county and of course to the taxable property of the State. Whatever you and I may think theoretically about education the masses of our people are going to demand of u.s that we shall turn out from our schools young people who can add materially to the taxable wealth of the State.
260

We have been exceedingly fortunate in the appointment of our new Commandant to this institution. Capt. John M. Sigworth,' of the 23rd Infantry of the U. S. Army was detailed to do duty here on the first of February. He is not only a man of exceptional military ability, but he is a great personal force and a man of fine Christian character. His influence over our young men has been delightful in every respect and we are looking forward with hopeful anticipations to great development iIJ. the military department. I am glad to report that the Military Department here has already won very high praise from the War Department 'at Washington.
From every point of view the institution has had l:t year of good growth. We will graduate 14 young peolJ~e this year, who will be well equipped for useful service to the State. All of which I respectfully submit.
Yours very truly, G. R. GLENN, President.
261

GEORGIA SCHOOL FOR THE DEAF,
Cave Spring, Georgia.
CHARACTER OF THE SCHOOL.
The Georgi~ School for the Deaf, as its name implies. is strictly a school for the education of those persons who are too deaf to receive instruction in the common schools.
Those persons who are dumb but not deaf 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 persons and not for the hearing.
The school is neither an asylu~ nor a charitable institution, unless other public schools, and the various . brancl~es 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 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.
262

I
i
Shoul,d 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 primar.y object of the school is to give to the deaf 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 boys and girls are given lessons in drawing in charcoal, crayon, water-color, pencil, and pen and ink sketching, mechanical drawing, in designing, and in modeling in clay, as well as in wood-carving.
263

r
Of course the degree of progress made on thes~lines, depends almost .entirely upon the individual effort made by the pupil.
CLOTHING.
A. uniform of neat appearance, and of substantial material, 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 housekeeper can check them up and enter them in a book kept for the purpose.
I~ETTER WRITING.
Pupils who can do so are required to write home at least once a month, and for those who cannot, the prin,cipal 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 addressed to the principal, and not to subordinates, (officers or employes) otherwise no attention will be paid to them.
All moneys intended for the children had best be sent direct to the principal, and he wili be responsible for it, otherwise not.
264

l
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, af\ part of their address, otherwise they may not be de livered, 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 cannot 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 40me.
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 Georgia 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 shall be allowed to remain more than twelve terms.
In case parents or guardians are unable to furnish the . pupils 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 lri~ f'~",ol seal attached, that said parent or
265

guardian is not in a pecuniary condition to furnish 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 school, may be paid from the support fund of the school.
In cases where pupils have no homes to which they can 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 rema,in in to the close of the term.
Except in cases of serious sickness or death in the immediate family it must be distinetly understood thta the pupils will not be allowed to visit their homes during the s'ession. 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
266

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 they 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 cannot 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.
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.

THIRD DISTRICT AGRICULTURAL AND MECHANICAL SCHOOL AT AMERICUS.
ATTENDANCE.
Students registered during the present term, 120. Boys, 106; girls, 14.
Sixty per cent. of the pupils come from the farm. The other forty per cent. come from homes whose parents or guardians punue the following avocations: Merchants, machinists and mechanics, county officers, doctors, manufacturing and milling agencies, railroading, hotel keepers, lawyers, and a small per cent no vocation given.
Including day pupils and those who would have boarded in the dormitories, 41 pupils could not be admitted for want of room and other reasons.
Nin~ty-fiveper ,cent. of the pupils who attended during the fall term returned to the school after Christmas.
Counties represented: Taylor, Crisp, Macon, Wilcox, Sumter, Lee, Dooly, Pula,ski, Twiggs, Houston, Stewart, Webster, Schley, Crawford, Ben Hill, Marion, Laurens~ Terrell, Cobb, Telfair, Quitman, Dodge, Lowndes, Harte, Randolph, Tattnall, Fulton, and Worth. States: Georgia, South Carolina, Florida, and Alabama.
THE FARM.
While the school owns a tract of land containing 270 acres, only fifty-nine and one-half acres was cultivated during 1909. The gross money value of all the products of the farm was $3,094.71, or an average of over $50 per acre. This valuation includes the products of the dairy and the pork produced on the farm. All the labor having been done by the students, products to the amount of $1,283.57 were turned into the dining-hall department, reducing board to students this amount.
26~

Many favorable results have been recorded through experiments and demonstrations made during the past year. The average yield of oats per acre was 34 bushels, while the greatest yield was 65 bushels; the' average yield of cotton in money value was $44, while the greatest yield was $64 per acre. These are gross results.
THE SHOPS.
The course covers work in metals as follows: Drawing, upsetting, bending, fullering, swaging, drilling, punching, welding, tempering, grinding, and polishing. The wood work includes: Squaring, dovetailing, mortising, doweling, grooving, glueing, polishing, painting, staining, and waxing. Work is also given in brick laying, cement work, calcimining, plumbing, wireing, and any and all kinds of repair work related to the farm and home. The work is popular with the students and is thoroughly organized, yet we greatly need more room for our present attendance.
THE LITERARY DEPARTMENT.
The school has complied with the requirements of the authorities of the State University in arrangipg its course of study, and has been given accredited High School relations with the University and its association of colleges. It requires four years to finish the coul;'se. No student will be given a certificate who spends less than two years at the school.
THE MILITARY DEPARTMENT;
The students have been organized into a battalion of cadets composed of three companies. The school is under military discipline and this department is responsible for the discipline of the school. In the future all pupils
269

r
must wear the se"rvice "uniform. A dress uniform has been adopted but the wearing of this uniform is not made compulsory. As an auxiliary to the department it has a regularly organized military band of 18 pieces.
EXPENSES.
Tuition is free, except music. Board for the next ensuing year will cost $7 per month. The student pays for books, uniform, laundrying, and incidentals from $15 to $30 per term. A pupil may attend a whole term for less than $100.
THE UNOFFICIAL LIFE OF THE SCHOOL.
The young men have a Y. M. C. A. organization, a Sunday School, a short prayer service every night in the lobby of the boy's dormitory, the A. M. C. Literary Society, a Tennis Club, each class a basket ball team. Students may attend any of the churches in the city on Sundays. All students are required to attend some religious service every Sunday. N? student is allowed to take part in any of the games whose deportment is bad or who fails to make satisfactory records in the class rooms and in the shops, and on the farm.
From the reports of the farm manager and the dairyman at the Americus Agricultural and Mechanical School, that have just been made to the principal, we get some very interesting figures. Mr. David Wicker has managed the farm, while Mr. Harris Ratcliff has had the dairy herd in charge. Mr. Ratcliff, in addition to managing the dairy, is keeping up regular class work as a student. We can give only extracts from the reports as they are too long to give in full.
From the farm report we get the following: A)l the work was done by the students. Fifty-nine and one-half
270

acres were cultivated during 1909. The average gross proceeds per acre of cotton was $44.55; the highest gross proceeds per acre was $64.40.
Twenty-two acres were sown in oats. The average yield per acre was 34 bushels; the greatest yield per acre was 65 bushels and one peck. Seventeen acres of the land SOW!! in oats, after the oats were harvested, was sown in .pea~. From the 17 acres, 14 tons of hay was gathered. The average money yield, gross, per acre, on oats and hay was $31.82.
The report shows that more than 20 experiments were made with oats. One of the most surprising things about the report is that the greate'st net yield of oats above cost of fertilizers, was made on a plat on which nitrate of soda was used in March. No fertilizer on this plat.
The small acreage is due to the work required in preparing the land, and the rapid cultivation that is necessary on account of having to contend with nut grass and bermuda sod. It required seven times going over some of the plats sown in oats, till the time the seed were planted.
Mr. R,atcliff, the dairyman's report shows that he turned into the school, 9,816 quarts of milk. Valued at seven and one-half cents per quart would make a total of $736.20. The school received no returns from the product of the dairy for 34 days, during which time the milk was delivered to parties in the city.

The farm manager's report III part is as follows:

Cotton and cottonseed, thirteen and one-half

FIFTH DISTRICT AGRICULTURAL AND ME
CHANICAL SCHOOL, MONROE, GA.
HON. JERE M. POUND,
Atlanta, Ga.
DEAR SIR :-1 have the honor to present to you the second annual report of our school.
We have in attendance this term 88 students, 67 boys and 21 girls, representing every county in the Fifth Congressional District and two other counties of the State.. We also have two students from South Carolina.
These boys and girls are sent here by ambitious parents; and, as a rule, I think they appreciate this fact, and are trying to make the best use. of the opportunity afforded them here. Of course all are not doing their work and study with the same interest and eagerness. Some seem more hungry than others, and some seem to have very little appetite. Indeed, mental food and drink sometimes rather nauseate the languid and indifferent students. No power this side of Heaven can teach such students.
The cost of attending our school, above the profitable work done by the students, is about $7 per month. Some of the students pay' all their board in profitable work on the farm and about the school. I am not sure that this works to the advantage of the attendance. The cost is so low people are apt to think that the class of work done is cheap. Again students may feel that it is not necessary to do as much as they otherwise would as they can get their money's worth without much effort.
273

Our farm equipment has been greatly improved since last year. We have added many excellent labor-saving implements. I think this is one of the most important missions of our agricultural schools. If we can show the farmers that it is economy for them to buy the very best tools for all their work I think we shall have done much towards improving their condition. We are stressing our agricultural department more than we have been able to do heretofore. Our great hindrance has bee.n that we. were unable to purchase such- farm equipment as was necessary to do creditable farm work. With the added $2,000 to our annual income we are able to do better along this important line.
Our dairy is getting on fairly well. We lack good shelter for our cows and cattle. We are in great need of a good dairy barn.
Our hogs pay us handsomely, as they are fed almost entirely from the kitchen waste. We have 22 head of well-bred Berkshires. I sold one hog to our local market that brought enough to buy two ordinary cows.
On the whole, I feel that our work is making satisfactory progress. If the public will be patient with these agricultural schools for a few years, while they are establishing themselves in a new and untried field, I feel sure that there will be no cause for disappointment.

SEVENTH DISTRIC!r AGRICULTURAL SCHOOL
Powder Springs, Ga., May 2, 1910.
HON. JERE M. POUND,
State' School Commissioner, Atlanta, Ga.
My DEAR SIR :-It is my pleasure to make to you this report of the 7th District Agricultural School.
This year has been decidedly the best in the history of the school in every respect.
We have enrolled this year 100 students and nearly every county of the 13 in our district has been represented by good, honest students, a very much better class of boys. than formerly. There are four classes in school now and this year will be turned out our first graduates. Their names are: Messrs Jeff Stewart, J. Willis Arnold, Otis Kemp, Gus Ware, Misses Zelma Babb, Mittie Lindley.
The literary work of the year has been very satisfactory.
As to material improvements, as stated formerly in my reports we have builded with student labor, without the aid of a mechanic save in our own numbers, a dormitory made according to the architects plans for all the boys' dormitories in the State. In this building there are 200,000 brick, all handled by the boys, and there are 50 rooms plastered and finished for occupancy by students in September. The boys took a pride in this work, feeling that they were building for time and not merely to get in their time. We all rejoice that we have now room to grow in.
In addition to this work we have now planted 20 acres of corn, 7 in cotton and have about 10 in spring
275

oats. The growers of 25 varieties of cotton through the effort of the'Agricultural College at Athens, have sent us one pound of their best cotton seed for a variety test. These seed will be planted and cultivated alike and then results will be tested in the fall. The yield of seed cotton, also lint, length of fiber, strength of fiber, all Will be carefully noted and will be compared with the results of a similar test made at the University and all the Agricultural schools. We 'look to this test for much useful information. There are quite 3, number of long staple varieties, also some genuine Sea Island cotton, which will be something of interest to all farmers near these schools.
As to our future plans there will be constructed this fall a modern barn, the work to be done by student labor, , .. and some additional work on a water system for the school.
Our faculty is composed of the following teachers: A. B.Turner, blacksmith and farm assistant. Miss Lula Eubanks, matron. Miss Claude Martin, domestic science and assistant in literary work. J. E. Creel, agriculturist and allied subjects. H. R. Hunt, principal and literary teacher. For this coming year there will be added one literary teacher. There is less prejudice against this school than formerly and many now begin to see that agriculture can be taught.
Yours very truly, H. R. HUNT, Principal.
276

TENTH DISTRICT A & M. SCHOOL.
The past year has been a successful one with us. The enrollment for the year was seventy-five. Owing to a limited water supply a large number could not be admitted. We are now boring a deep well which promises to furnish all the water the school may need.
The students have done good work in all the departments of the school. In dress-,making the progress has been remarkable. The farm was more than self-sustaining. Five hundred bushels of corn were grown at a labor cost of less than five hundred hours work. Oats were grown at a cost of less than twenty-five cents a bushel. All work on the farm and in the dormitories has been done by student labor. This has' enabled several deserving boys and girls to attend who otherwise could not have afforded the expense.
The social life of the school is planned and looked after with the same care and thought that is given to the usual duties. Table manners, rules of etiquette, etc., are carefully taught and the students are required to observe the same. They have shown their appreciation of this feature by studiously complying with the suggestions of the teachers in charge of this feature of the work.

HIGH SCHOOLS.
REPORT OF JbSEPH S. STEWART, PROFESSOR OF SECONDARY EDUCATION.

A~hens, Ga., May 2, 1910. HON. JERE M. POUND,
State School Commissione'r.
DEAR SIR :-1 have the honor to submit herewith my report on the development of High Schools for the year 1909-10. In October last we issued a new "Handbook for the Secondary Schools of Georgia," containing 60 pages of suggestions for the consideration of the High School authorities. This will be sent free on application. In this handbook the following regulations governing the accrediting of schools were given:

1. High schools, academies, seminaries and other secondary schools

desiring accredited relations with the University of Georgia and asso-

ciated colleges, should make formal application to the Professor of Secon-

dary Education, Athens, Ga. Memoranda blanks will be furnished to

the superintendent or principal of the school seeking credit. Upon the

blanks will be indicated the number of teachers and their qualifications

the courses of study in the different branches, and such information in

regard to apparatus, libraries, laboratories, program, etc., as may s~rve

to give a fair idea of the general efficiency of the school.

2. No school will be. a ccred,ited before the Professor of Secondary

Education, or some person designated by him, shall have visited it and

shall have rendered a report concerning its equipment and work. The

authorities of the school may also be requested to submit to him specimen

examination papers prepared by students pursuing the high school sub-

jects in which credit is desired. Pupils' note book should also be open to

inspection.

.

3. On the school being accepted, the authorities will be duly notified,

and the name of the school will be entered, under the proper group on

the list of accredited schools. The list will be published in the annual

catalog of the University, in the annual report of the State School Com-

missioner, and in' the catalogs of such other institutions as may accept

the University list of schools.

278

4. To be accredited at all, any school must prepare its graduates for the Freshman class in English, History, Algebra and Plane Geometry. Complete accredited relations includes enough other subjects to admit graduates to the University without conditions. To be admitted without conditions 14 units will be required of all students.
5. Credit may be secured in the following subjects with their respective values:
PRESCRIBED:
(1) English, 3 units. (2) History, 2 units. (3) Algebra, 1.5 units. (4) Plane Geometry, 1 unit.
ELECTIVE. (1) English, .5, 1 unit (2) History, .5, 1, 1.5, 2 (3) Civics,.5 Languages:
(4) Latin, 1, 2, 3 or 4 units. (5) Greek, 1, 2 or 3 units. (6) German, 1, 2, units. (7) French, 1, 2 units. (8) Spanish, 1, 2 units. Note.-Students are advised to consult the annual ()atalogs for language requirements for the several degrees and make their elections accordingly.
Sciences:
(9) Physics, .5, 1 unit. (10) Botany, .5, 1 unit. (11) Physical Geography, .5, 1 unit. (12) Physiology,.5 unit. (13) Agriculture, 1, 2 units. (14) Biology, 1 unit. (15) Zoology, .5, 1 unit. (16) Chemistry, .5, 1 unit.
Mathematics:
(17) Solid Geometry, .5 unit. (18) Plane Trigonometry, .5 unit. (19) Advanced Algebra, .5 unit. (20) Drawing, 1 unit. (21) Manual Training, 1, 2 unit. (22) Music, 1, 2 units.
6. One unit represents approximately the amount of work done in
36 weeks with the eq'uivalent of five recitations per week, having a min-
279

imum period of 40 minutes. Many High Schools do not reach the re-
quired standard, and four years may be required to make 3 units of credit in one subject. Thus 30-minute recitation periods during a year will count only 3-4 of a unit; and lessons coming only 3 times a week will count 3-5 of a unit, the time element counting on certificate as well as the quantity. Again, Beginner's Latin counts only 1 unit though two years be taken to complete the text; the same is true of Secondary school Algebra which can count but 1.5 units, though more time than" one and one-half years be given the subject
Stated in terms of the Southern Association of Colleges and Secondary Schools, A unit represents a year's study in any subject in a secondary school, constituting approximately a quarter of a full year's work. This statement is deeigned to afford a standard of measurement for work done in secondary schools. It takes the four-year high school course as a basis and assumes that the length of the school year will be approximately thirty-six weeks, that a period is at least forty minutes and that the study is pursued for four or five periods a week; but, under ordinary circumstances, a satisfactory year's work in any subject cannot be accompli~hed in less than one hundred and twenty-sixty minute hours, or their equivalent. Schools organized on a different basis can, nevertheless, estimate their work in terms of this unit.
7. The University in offering this list of electives ,which is that proposed by the Carnegie Foundation for the Advancement of Teaching, does not anticipate that any of the accredited schools will desire or attempt to offer instruction in all the subjects enumerated. The list is made for the purpose of extending liberty to the school authorities in adjusting courses of study to local needs. School authorities are urged to limit their courses of study to such subjects as they may be able to to teach efficiently without overcrowding teachers or pupils with recitation periods. Not more than five prepared lessons a day per pupil should be allowed, and not more than nine of the above unit recitations per teacher. Even this would mean six solid hours of teaching. We recommend, where possible, six or seven recitations and one or two conference periods for each teacher in the high school.
8. All schools seeking complete accredited relations that is, desiring to be placed in Group I, of the accredited schools, should strive to meet the following requirements:
(1) The High School course of study should cover a minimum period of four years above at least seven elementary grades.
(2) The work should be done according to the departmental plan of teaching.
(3) The minimum length of recitation period must be 40 minutes.
(4) At least three teachers who should have had college training, should teach exclusively in the high school. One of these might be the superintendent or principal, in which case part of his time should be allowed for supervision of the lower grades, if a part of the system.
280

(5) Schools desiring credit in the sciences must provide adequate laboratories, as all such students will be required to do some individual laboratory work with note-books properly kept before full credit in these subjects will be given.
(6) Library facilities will be taken into consideration when giving credit for English and History
9. Among the fundamental conditions determining the group to which a school will belong may be mentioned the following:
(aj The number of pupils ready for high school training. (b) Moral and financial support of the school. (~j Buildings and equipment. (:1, Number and training of teachers, and (,)/ Efficiency of the elementary school. 10. The grouping is made upon the amount of work that the schools may be able to do well. Group III schools are accredited on the presumption that their English, History and Mathematics are as well taught all these subjects are taught in Group I schools. The same minimum amount of work must be covered in these subjects in a.l groups of accredited schools. This is a more equitable grouping than by years iJ.l course, for often a three-year high school may not be doing work the equivalent of a standard two-year course. 11. Again, we believe it is the first duty of the schools to give efficient training to all in English, History and Mathematics: and in foreign languages and Sciences as their teaching force and means will justify. These 7.5 units might be said to be the fundamental basis in any course. The industrial, the classical, the scientific, the professional, and technical studies should he added to these as the needs of the student and the means of the community may warrant. 12. This grouping will allow small towns with few high school pupils opportunity to do first-class work in a few subjects, rather than by trying to imitate the curricula of the larger high schools, end in failure. As the number of students will increase with the development of the community, the teaching force may be strengthened and additional studies added. Gradually such schools will reach a higher group. Let us have done, once for all, with boards, requiring one teacher to spread himself over the whole school course. Sometimes, we fear, the fault is not in the boards, but in the ambitious teach~rsclaiming to teach everything on get-educated quick methods. Such teachers are as hurtful to the profession of teaching as the promoters of get-rich-quick schemes are to the business world.
Many schedules were offered as suggestions to boards
and teachers as to possible courses for schools of differ-
ent size. Below we give some of these groupings that.
might be used in different schools to meet local needs.
The number of these courses offered in any school will
281

depend upon the school equipment and the corps of teachers, as well as the demands of the pupils. The question of the details of the course is largely a local one but conforming to general standards. Junior and middle schools would offer proportionally less number of years in each subject.

Double periods are better in industrial classes,

Any of these courses should p;ive 14 units for graduation.

In last year's report I gave suggestions for those 'Who prefer the elective system to the group system.
Some progress has been made in the introduction of industrial courses, but the people are not demanding

282

these as rapidly as we hoped. Possibly it is because they cannot meet the expense of a well~trained teacher for these courses.We are urging upon all schools the importance of some real science teaching. Few of our schools have been equipped with adequate laboratory and too many are having children memorize a book and call. it teaching chemistry. We trust that boards of education will see the importance of training in some branch of science in this scientific age: and provide the necessary equipment. This need not be very costly.
The work in English has made great progress. This is shown by the greater appreciation of the English classics as studied in class and by the improvement in essays as I have seen them in the schools and in the Congressional District Essay Contests. The High School pupils of today are reading more good literature appreciatively than was read in a college course twenty years ago.
A few years ago the work in History was limited in most schools to one course. Now there are from three to four years' work offered, including advanced American History and Civics.
The teaching of Latin has shown much improvement under the plan of one teacher teaching all the Latin classes. Probably a third more Latin is read and with greater ease and enjoyment.
The study of Greek is about holding its own, while the study of a modern language is being offered in a larger number of schools. French seems to be growing in favor faster than German. This may be due to the fact that more girls prefer French.
Mathematics is still the best taught subject and the apparent favorite. In some schools I believe it receives an undue share of the time.
283

I have been sorry to find so little drawing in our High Schools. The training in classing, singing and chorus work is greatly neglected, though the work in instrumental music shows improvement.
Commercial studies are showing some gain apd they ought to be encouraged where they are made a part of the. school course-competing with the school as a. whole.
The spelling is poor, due to the fact that it is neglected in many schools. We cannot expect the grammar school to teach the vocabulary of the High School.
The penmanship was never so poor, owing to the continual change in recent years from one system of writing to another.
We are endeavoring to stimulate interest in physical culture by contests in track athletics. These are wholesome exercises and should be encouraged in every school.
All of our best schools have literary societies. I see no reason why any school should be without one. The Congressional High School Associations are stimulating more interest in declamations. Few men in this democratic country but at some time have to speak. This training should begin in the schooL I remember with pleasure the old Friday afternoon exercises when the boys in turn had to "speak.' ,. In some way similar training should be given today.
Progress is shown in the development of the library.
Fully eighty per cent. of the accredited schools are organized on the departmental plan. This has been the cause of much of the improved teaching seen. About ninety per cent. of our High School teachers have col., lege training and m~st of them have degrees.
More male teachers are being employed. I believe it is a distinct advantage that a boy should come, during
284

the High School period, III contact with a strong man in the school room.
Salaries are increasing slowly, by no means as fast as the cost of living. There are few towns which now
""PlI.bl,C H'9h School B",IlarNlUo
-r"!CTED IN (;,l.O1\l:, ..... 11041~.'.
ask a teacher to take the school" on its merits. " Nearly all pay monthly salaries. Every town should see that the property of the town bears its share of the cost of the education of the children of the town.
285

According to the best information I can get from the schools and officials there are 231 public High Schools in Georgia having at least one teacher giving his whole time to the High School department. Your report will show a large number that do a little High School work along with the common school grades.
And this brings me to the necessity of pointing out the great defects in our present system. A casual study of the list of schools below will show that nearly all of the schools are city or town schools, supported by these communities for the benefit of their children. The villages and rural communities are practically without High School facilities except as the children may go to these town schools or to the Congressional District Agricultural Schools. The Constitution of the State forbids the use of any of the State school funds for High School subjects and prohibits a county from levying a school tax except "for instruction in the elements of an English education only." This restriction it is thought by the best lawyers includes a school district also. Now the Constitution gives the municipalities the right to maintain schools unrestricted in grade. We therefore see the gross injustice that the Constitution makes between the city and rural child. We can never have good High Schools for all our people until these unjust restrictions are removed. In fact we can never perfect the common scHools for which, Mr. Commissioner, you are laboring so zealously, until we have related High Schools. We of all the States of the Union make such a restric.tion, and it is high time that the Constitution was amended. The three bills by Hon. G. Ogden Persons amending the three sections of the Constitution that stand in the way of the full High School development of the State should receive the hearty support of every lover of his country.

adoption of these amendments is the nlOst important legislation of the year, and will enable you to give to Georgia the best system of schools.
It is with gratification that I mention the cordial cooperation that has been shown us in our efforts to strengthen the secondary schools of the State. The education of the children touches vitally everyone, whether he has any children or not, and we must all work together for the common good. We might well take for our educational motto,
"Work of each For weal of all."
Below we give a list of accredited schools arranged in groups to May 1, 1910:
PUBLIC HIGH SCHOOLS AND PRIVATE ACADEMIES.
Group 1.
Group 1 is composed of Secondary Schqols preparing students in English 3, History 2, Algebra 1.5, Plane Geometry ], Latin 3 or a modern language 2 or two foreign languages 4, and enough elective> to make 14 units. No school will be placed in this group that cannot gain credit for at least 14 units for its graduates, and is a Senior or four-year High School.
See first part of this report for regulations.

REPORT OF SCHOOL IMPROVEMENT CLUBS.
MRS. WALTER B. HILL, STATE ORGANIZER, ATHENS, GA.
HON JERE M. POUND, Atlanta, Georgia.
DEAR SIR ;.....:.....The increased attendance of our Georgia County School Commissioners at their meeting at Tallulah Falls last July gave me a fine opportunity to meet the officials from different parts of the State, and to have personal talks with them concerning the best. ways and means to be employed in extending the work of school improvement in the rural districts. This has led to an increased correspondence, and many calis for literature, both for school improvement and for local taxation. In addition to these, the personal letters from many teachers, endeavoring to organize local working clubs, lead me to have faith in a general quickening of public interest concerning our school problems.
This interest is being manifested in questions concerning libraries, school equipment, and the necessary building up of school interests through the work of local clubs. I hope these are substantial straws showing the right direction of the wind, for there are still many counties where essential equipment is lacking. Some of our county organizations held general meetings last fall, the most notable was in Chattooga county. While the work of county organization mOves but slowly, large numbers of local clubs are springing into active existence. In all but two or three counties of the State,
teachers of tlw ~Oll;ntr schools have formed their pupils
8M

into Junior School Improvement Leagu~es, sometimes

they 'have the active interest of the patrons of the school

in an auxiliary society.

In all of these school communities there is a slow, but

constant change of point of view, and an increase of in-

terest concerning those things which make for a better

and higher life.

.

The call for an annual meeting of all school improve-

ment clubs at the University Summer School, the last

week in July, did not meet with many responses from a

distance.

The faithful workers were having their well earned

vacations, and had no surplus cash for traveling to a one

day meeting, but the many students in the summer school

furnished a most appreciative audience for the five

workers who spoke. These represented the different

fields of effort, and the different problems of the workers.

Miss Mary Stone spoke of "The Country School," "The

SmaUTown School" was represented by Miss Virginia

Dowd, "The Sub-Urban School" (near a big city), Miss

Katherine Mitchell, "The School Section of the Womans'

Club" (showing what great reforms were inaugurated

in one school) Mrs. Grubb. The general news of the, field

was then presented to the teachers. The visitors proved

their interest in this subject by pledging themselves to

work for the general educational reform movements

being agitated in our State.

I am ananging my work, as far as possible, that I

may be in Athens during the Summer School of 1910, and

I hope to have the privilege of meeting an the public

spirited teachers who may be in attendance. Before this

year, it has not seemed practicable for me to attend these

summer sessions. I am hoping for great ~results, and a

fine report next year as the outcome, for it is through our

30/1

best teachers only we can hope for permanent work in helping to lay foundations for success in local club work toward the betterment of our school conditions.
In addition to distributing the bulletin, ",The Right of the Child," puhlished in June, Professor H. H. Stone's paper, "Good Roads, a Factor for Good Schools," was -published and distributed in August, and has been used in our local tax campaign work. Later, Dr. J. W. Lee's admirable address, "The Function of the College in the Struggle for Existence," was published, and has had a wide distribution.
All of these pamphlets have received a most cordial welcome by our school people, and have already helped along the right thought. We need to arouse the slumbering interest of our fathers and mothers by papers of like significance. Our people do not mean to wrong the children of Georgia. Most of them are willing to do the tight thing, if only they can learn what it is, and how to use opportunities already at their doors.
I attended the five days educational rally at Alpharetta, Milton County, Georgia, the last of August. This was intended as a prelude to an annual exhibit of the work of the country children, in addition to the public speaking which may be called for. A county organization has been made, with working committees, looking not only to the competitive contests in field work, horticulture, domestic science, and manual training, but also for the development of the intellectual and social phases of country life. rt'his rally waS well attended. Everyone in the county must have been there on one or more days. The drills, music, recitations furnished by the pupils of the different schools were greatly enjoyed, (young America showing the proper spirit and pride' in school yells.) The exhibits from these schools, displayed in the
306

Academy, were highly creditable to teachers and pupils. This rally was one of dozens similar to it in other counties, and represents a type of the county efforts now being made to bring parents, teachers, and pupils together in a common cause.
Milton county intends to succeed in having"An Educational and Agricultural Association," which will show every year what the live boys and girls of that county can do. These will have to look well to their laurels if they hope to have "the Banner County" of the State; for other counties are already ahead. Indeed, during the past year almost every county in the State has had some kind of an educational rally. In counties where these have not been held, plans are now on foot for a complete organization, contemplating such work this year. The prizes for these competitive exhibitions have been furnished by the county people, no prizes are given by the State. These co~petitive exhibits comprise work done in school, field products, such as cotton,corn, potatoes, sugar cane, ground peas, fall vegetables, fruit and flowers; with a large and varied display of domestic work by the girls. In counties, prizes for fine specimens of live stock have been offered, and poultry and colts have been much in evidence. (During a late trip to one of our progressive counties, some of them being on a large scale, Hs Junior Club, I found an enterprising young citizen of fourteen years who was trying to have the prize for cooking extended to the boys. He said he was learning how to cook because he never intended to marry; and so he would have to know how!)
At Cartersville I.had the pleasure of being present at the first Bartow County Children's Fair, which was a great success, the exhibits ranging from pet possums and chickens to needlework and other home products,
307

and products of the field and garden. The beginning of this competitive exhibit was made early last year by the appointment of a Committee of twenty-five from Cartersville and the different sections of the county to co-operate in the formation of a permanent association. Although all of the schools were not represented, the exhibits were so very good, and public enthusiasm so general, those who were "not in it" this year, will be there next time. On this occasion there was a large audience of the country people at the county court house.
For this autumn (1910) the Bartow county school children intend to make a record year for vacation work in domestic science, horticulture, field products, and the care of live stock. Under the enthusiastic direction of their live County School Commissioner and his willing helpers, every schoolis lining up for a big show and a big time, generally.
There were similar Children's Fairs in other progressive countieS', some of them being on it large scale, but I mention this one, because I was prevented by engagements from attending the others, but was present at this.
rrhe beginning of the Corn Club work in this State (with which we are co-operating most heartily) will furnish a needed stimulus toward the better understanding' of what local school improvement stands for, and we hope to chronicle for next year a wide spread enthusiasm for horticultural and field work.
Professor Early has succeeded In organizing a large number of boys in the best counties, and he confidently looks for fine results. One farmer in South Georgia, who had been content with old ways, (and twenty bushels of corn to the acre!) has been soundly converted-and for the balance of his days-to the new method of cultiva-
308

tion, because his own son made sixty bushels on one llcre of sandy land, and gained the prize of fifty dollars. The superficial reader may not see any vital connection between this field work and the improvement of our school conditions, but the student of such conditions will gladly explain the close kinship.
When returning from the big meeting in Milton county, I spent a day at Norcross t<1 meet the members of a Woman's Club which has a flourishing school improvement section, where fine work is being done on the High School grounds~ and 'where a public library is already established by the determined work of public spirited women. Prizes are offered by this club for the best window garden and the neatest school room.
There was an interregnum of three weeks when I was in quarantine with a diphtheria patient (my small son) and coulu neither receive nor send mail.
The Woman's Club of Calhoun has been the first (and only one) to hold a conference of district clubs. At this meeting in September last, the school improvement work was ,well represented by the Calhoun Club, and by delegates from other clubs within the district. It was my first opportunity to meet many with whom I had exchanged a lively and profitable correspondence. These workers are reaching out to the country school interests in a definite way, and are, already reaping the harvests of persistent efforts. At Mount Zion, in Carroll county, we started a club of the boys and girls which promises fine results. A Mothers' Club was to have begun with this one, but a very destructive storm interfered, the meeting for their organization having to be postponed.
A visit in October to the flourishing school improvement club at Cedartown furnished a large degree of satisfaction. This organization, beginning its active exist-
309

tlhce last spring, after supplylng the High School with fine pictures, and assisting in the planting of the school grounds there, and at other schools, has focussed interest this autumn and winter upon the task of looking after needy children-of furnishing clothing and books, when essential, and of seeing that they attend school. In a manufacturing town this is no easy undertaking, but there is no doubt of ultimate success.
I organized in October a Junior League at the Samuel Benedict Memorial School near Cedartown. Around the new fire proof building (which represents the combined ef10rts of determined people after two destructive fires) there is a small tract of land on which the boys have already begun experimental farm work under the direction of Mr. George Benedict, while Mrs. Benedict, the patron saint of the district, has organized the mothers of the children into a club, meeting monthly at her home. There is no earthly scale by which to measure the influence of such unselfish Christian lives and work as are found here, in the home, and in the school.
In Bartow county an effort was made to begin a double working club of adults and school children at the country school near the Sam Jones Memorial Church, but a severe wind storm again interfered and this locality will have to be visited again to perfect the work already begun.
In November I met with the Executive Committee of the State Federation of Woman's Clubs, and also spent one day at the annual meeting, when I made a short address, appealing to the delegates to take up this work in their counties, and to co-operate with the school officials in helping to get the people interested in this most vital subject. Just afterward I made a similar ap-
310

peal to the State Congress of Mothers. meeting in Atlanta.
At the request of Dr. P. P. Claxton, I prepared a summary of the year's work of our Southern School Improvement Leagues (or Clubs), for the animal meeting of the Southern Educational Association, in Charlotte, last December. I have furnished news of school improvement work each month for the magazine "School and Home," published in Atlanta, and have also furnished material for newspaper articles here and in other States. We are making an effort to get the county local workers to publish their work in their county papers. Whenever this is done systematically, good results follow.
During the last week of .Tanuary a Conference for Farmers' Wives was held at our State College of Agriculture.
In some respects this was simHar to that of the preceding year. There were more practical demonstrations in domestic science, and fewer addresses; but th~ inclement weather interfered with the attendance.
A program of these meetings is appended: Program of the Oonference for Farmers' Wives, to be held at the Georgia State College of Agriculture, Athens, Ga., January 18th to 21st, inclusive. January 22nd, Boys' and Girls' Convention.

"The Protection of our Birds," Professor R. J. H. DeLoach, State College of Agriculture;
One day was given to children-a separate program having been arranged. This was well attended, and the children were enthusiastic. As a direct result a number of Boys' and Girls' Clubs have been started.
Within the past three years School Improvement Committees have been appointed in the Federated Women's Clubs.
Only a few formal reports have reached me this year, but as Chairman of the School Improvement Section of the State Federation work, I know of much good work, and have inspected some of it, and I know that substantial results have been accomplished in many of our cities and in the large and small towns. The activity' thus directed has not been able to reach the rural districts except in a limited way, but the outlook is now quite hopeful, especially since the formation of a new State Campaign Committee which includes several members of the Federation, pledged to help in the campaign, for the general upbuilding of the educational interests in the entire State.
313

The Federated Clubs are turning their attention especially to the equipment and permanent establishment of rural schools where manual arts and domestic science are taught. There are now two of these in operation. rrhe newest is that at Tallulah Falls, opened last July. Miss Sarah White, of Tallulah Fans, gave the land; the club workers raised the money for ,the building-which is an attractive five room house; the equipment is being given by clubs and individual friends. The opening was celebrated in a most delightful way.
The County School Commissioners were holding their annual session at Tallulah at that time, and were present, also the Chancellor of the State University, the State School Co:rnmissioner, club women, school improvement workers, the mayor of the little town, and last but not least, the mothers of the twenty-five children enrolled. The Mother's Circle holds its meetings there, and the interest in the school is bringing in new members to discuss school methods and plans of work. The attendance is now seventy-five. Beside the five regular grammar grades drawing, cooking, sewing and basket making are taught. Through the generosity of a friend who has given a full equipment of tools for the carpenter's shop, training in wood-work will be begun as soon as the work benches, which have been ordered, arrive and are placed in position.
A model home for the teachers is the next need-the lumber and all necessary materials for the building of . this house have been promised, and the work of building will be begun at an early date. A young orchard has been planted, and much good work done for the improvement ~f the grounds. As this school is on the county line, Rabun and Habersham counties have agreed to help in its support. This school has been much needed there, as
314

similar schools are needed in other localities. It is mostly dependent on the work of the clubs, and on contributions frorri its friends.
I have recently visited the school at Cass Station where industrial work has been a prominent feature since its beginning, being largely supported by the State Federation, and aided for several years by Massachusetts Clubs. Two, teachers are there; the work-shop and kitchen are models of neatness and industry, but as I write the school term for the spring is nearly over-the patrons generally are tenant farmers, and need the children to help with the crop. The school has a most beautiful location in a grove. The school club is doing some good work on thE' school grounds, and near the station, and meets once a week. Mrs. M. L. Johnson, living near, has been a helper in many ways, and is known as the teachers' friend. This school has made a fine beginning and possesses the possibilities of wonderful work for the people of that district. It should have a bright future, with increased capacity for usefulness, and should receive the hearty support of thoiile who recognize the value of such an institution in that section.
Since a full summing up of the work accomplished by School Improvement Clubs for this last year, would make this paper too long, I take the liberty of selecting a few extracts from reports sent in during the past month. As local conditions and peculiar needs of individual communities vary the plan of procedure of the workers. the results cannot well be tabulated or reduced to statistics.
A county worker writes: " Your card received inquiring into the School ImproveII;lent Work of our county. We have five rural -flchoolR on our list having Carnegie School Libraries, and each of these, schools report some improvement, espe-
315

cially in school equipment. We have furnished the ,schools with bulbs and seed, and the report from Mr. H. S. Crawford, of the Centerville School, gives a glowing account of his school garden; parents and teachers. are taking a great interest in it."
From a School Improcement Club in a new town in South Georgia (Unadilla), organized last May, the following report comes :.
(In addition to what is stated, I may add that these workers propose to take charge of the little town park of a few acres, in connection with the school grounds. Professor McHatton made a visit to them in December to suggest plans for landscape gardening.)
"We have had two public e:o.tertainments for the club and have raised enough money for our curtains (for stage and windows of auditorium). We had three large curtains, sky curtains and all, painted here for $125.00 and they are paid for. We have had a map drawn of the school grounds and sent to Professor McHatton for him to draw us a plan. Weare now having all the stumps drawn off the grounds and we have had a trench dug around the school building for cannas, and they will be put out tomorrow.
We have about fifty members, honorary and alL" From a local School Improvement Club in a mountain district: ,,Number of members: Eleven. Through the efforts of these members something has been accomplished in the way of improvement. Two teachers' desks and revolving chairs have been secured. Eight wiJ?-dow shades purchased, cost $6.00. Globe donated. Books donated. Books purchased to the amount of $23.50. Donation of $25.00 by the Masons which the club has used toward improvement of grounds':"-stiles built, and trees planted
316

with this money. Recent entertainment by local talentnet amount realized $22.00. This will be used for further improvement on grounds. Also another small sum of a few dollars on hand. The County School Commissioner informs me that 'three new school buildings have been erected during the past year through-the influence of the ladies in their work. Also some other interests and improvements reported.' "
From -another small town where the School Improvement Club has been active for little more than a year:
"I hardly know how to report our work. Ours is not a rural school, but a High School in a small town. We had no well on the grounds about one year ago when we organized for the improvement of the school rooms and grounds. We started in to have a well the first thing. After we made the move the town authorities took up the matter and soon had a well bored. We feel like we are the prime movers in this matter, though the well was paid for by the town council. We have used some of the money having the building cleaned-windows washed, and so forth, and having trees put out on the grounds, among them some pecan trees. But our main work is having lights put in the school auditorium. We have the money, or most of it, and will have the hall lighted before commencement, in June. After this work is completed we will turn our attention to the grounds.
Another thing we did which we feel was much done in the right direction. Our town had always allowed hogs and cows to roam the streets at their will. We made a house to ,house canvass getting signers to a petition to the council to pass an ordinance prohibiting cows and hogs on the streets. Now we have the stock off the streets, and can beautify the streets and the court house square, as well as the school grounds. Wh'ile we have not
317

accomplished much as a club, we feel like we have been instrumental in having other improvements. The citizens are doing much to improve the streets and to beautify them. We hardly feel vain and boastful enough to take any of the credit of all o,f this to our club, but they were doing nothing of the kind before the club was organized!"
The school at Poplar Springs, Laurens county, eight miles from a railroad, is officered by Normal trained teachers. The Principal, Miss Emma Perry, was raised in the district, and has founded a most noble enterprise near her own home. The community is a fine one, the county among the best agricultural sections, and much local pride has been shown in the substantial work of the people for this school. Last year the Federation of Womens' Clubs" adopted it," and as proofs of their admiration furnished an hydraulic ram to bring the spring water to the buildings, and requested Mrs. Eugene Heard, of Middleton, to act as visitor and advisor. Miss Perry. writes:
"During the session of 1909-1910 the club has taken up no special line of work because of inconvenience in having meetings. The part of the club which comes to school (the teachers and pupils) has done much towards keeping grounds and buildings, growing plants, putting up boxes for the birds and so on.
Almost since school 'opened, a dormitory has been in process of construction, and we have lent a h~lping hand in cleaning away rU,bbish, cleaning floors, piling lumber. This week our shop class has put up hitching posts fOl the protection of the grove which is being rapidly killed out by gnawing and pawing horses. The tools are in constant use mending broken school property.
318

Our garden work is more encouraging. A friend in Milledgeville has given us seeds for spring planting, and also a nice lot of garden tools. We have had two entertainments, and raised nearly $100.00 on our school piano. The good ladies of the club do not come often but send, Our school has enrolled seventy-two pupils this year, and we count this the best year in its history. We have won the people of this community, and there is no opposition now to any sort of industrial work. It does not hinder the literary work, but is a recreation from that.
The club work could have been far better had the president been free to push the work, but the introduction of transportation; the fight for consolidation; the formulation of the scholarship plan and the building of the dormitory have unfitted me to be a leader of any sort of organization. It must be remembered, too, that I have been a regular teacher of three grades all the while, and have had to look after every detail of the work, and really do a great deal of manual labor. Three of us are now doing our own cooking, and teaching too."
The conviction grows upon me that the work of the School Improvement Club must mean more than the improvemeI4t of school houses and grounds, more than the possession of school libraries and equipment. It must reach the hearts of the people who should be most vital1y interested in the welfare of their own children. It must mean for them new thoughts, better living, and a broader comprehension of the privileges and obligations of citizenship. We have found that the most universal obstacle in the path of any sudden change is that well known, mysterious factor called human nature. However fairly the reformer may begin with material things, he will soon find himself facing the all important question of how to deal with folks. Epictetus expresses most tersely

this condition. "In theory there is nothing to hinder our following what we are taught, but in life many things draw 'us aside." To quote Dr. Bailey: "Everyone is sure that something large and radical should be done for the farmer and for country living, but the real help the farmer needs is the removal of conditions which disadvantage him, so that he can work out his own progress." Those of us who are in closest touch with the problems of the country people recognize that indifference on the part of patrons is not always the root of the trouble.
The farmers and their C"hildren need better school laws, better trained and better paid school supervisors, and last but not least, an army of normal school teachers, and experts in agricultural education. Every untrained and immature teacher who is allowed to take charge of any school, however small, is only helping to block the way of educational progress.
Emerson says: "Our intellectual and active powers increase with our affections. The scholar sits down to write, and all the years of meditation do not furnish him with one good thought or happy expression, but it is necessary to write a letter to a friend and, forthwith, troops of gentle thoughts invest themselves on every hand with chosen words." This truth is being exemplified in the beautiful service of many timid women in our country places.
Previous to this movement for the betterment of schools, these had no other duties than those bounded by home and the country church. Now they are working to establish libraries for the school and the settlement, to beautify the school grounds, by the planting of trees, flowers, and grass, are working to make the school the center of common interest, by wholesome, instructive,
320

and pleasant entertainments; in a word they are trying to encourage and promote in all possible ways the agencies for a fine physical and intellectual environment of the country boys and girls.

THE BERRY SCHOOL, ROME, GEORGIA.
MARTHA BERRY, FOUNDER AND DIRECTOR.
The eighth year of this school has been very successful, from many standpoints. During the year the director raised one hundred thousand dollars for an endowment fund. This, it is hoped, is only the beginning of an endowment which shall give sufficient income to pay the running expenses of the institution, thus allowing the director to devote her energies to the development and extension of the work.
A 36 room dormitory, costing $12,000, was built during the summer of 1909, most of the work being done by students working during the vacation to pay their expenses for the year.
The enrollment reached 190. Forty boys were kept during the summer. In addition to building the dormitory they put up a complete sewerage system, including a sewage disposal plant, made additions to the shops, laundry, dining room and kitchen, ran the farm and dairy, besides doing the cooking and household work. Additional equipment to the steam laundry and workshop have greatly increased their value.
There are ten teachers in the class-room, and an equal number of instructors in the Industrial Department. Three general courses of study are offered. The College Preparatory, intended for those students who expect to go to college; the Agriqultural, for those who expect to farm and the Academic, for those who wish a good High School training as preparation for other lines of work. The course in Agriculture and Natural Science is being
322

developed as rapidly as possible. For next year this will include: Elementary courses in Hygiene, Physiology, Plant Study and General Agriculture; more advanced courses in Biology, Animal Husbandry, Soils, Farm Management, Agronomy and Physics.
The school now owns two thousand acres of land, an increase of several hundred over last year. The soil is being brought to a good state of cultivation. The live stock industry connected with the farm is also being developed, and shows a good profit for the year's work. We have one man in charge of the dairy and live stock, a second in charge of the farm and a third in charge' of the gardens and orchards.
The Martha Berry School for, Girls, a new institution similar in plan and purpose to the boys' school, and situated about a mile from the latter, was opened in November. It now has twelve girls in attendance and plans are being made to increase the number to twenty-five for next year. The girls are taught cooking, sewing, laundering, simple nursing, gardening, the care of domestic animals, care of house-in a word, the making of a home. Ideal domestic training is combined with thorough intellectual discipline and sound moral instruction. The study of the Bible is an essential feature of the course.

JUVENILE PROTECTIVE ASSOCIATIQN, AND
THE JUVENILE STATE.
The Juvenile Protective Association, incorporated under the laws of Georgia, has been carrying on a campaign of education throughout Georgia and the South, forming branch associations in important centflrs, some successful, others apparently not so, and other steps taken looking to the inauguration of the Juvenile Court and Probation System, and adequate State legislation. Legislation has been found by experience to come slowly and imperfectly in this and other States. Hence an object lesson was desirable from two standpoints: To lead forward the delinquent State and to redeem and train the delinquent child.
On November 24th, 1909, the Juvenile State, a home, school and juvenile commonwealth, was formally founded. In the beginning some difficulties were met and overcome, and about the middle of January 1910, the General Secretary moved his office to the Juvenile State, and acted as Superintendent, assisted by Miss Lucie M. R~berts, of Vienna, Ga., a teacher for a number of years, and also experienced in institutional work.
Five boys were received at this time, making six with John B. Gentle, who had been appointed Governor of the boys until there were sufficient number of well-trained "citizens" to elect their Governor.
This might be said to be the beginning of the Juvenile State, Dr. J. B. Roberts, of Atlanta, was elected Superintendent, and began his work March the first.
324

,
Our plan is for the citizens to be in school part of the day, work part, land have some hours for recreation, having all of Saturday afternoon.
At present the school is taught by Miss Roberts, who has been a teacher for over twenty yoors, and thoroughly understands the work.
The principal work which has been done is farm work, the other being some carpentering horticulture and dome'stic work. Under the capable management of Dr. Roberts, progress is being made on the farm and the boys are being taught the principles of farming. We expect to have as soon as practicable a dairy, laundry, bakery, poultry farm, workshops, etc.
We have a Juvenile State currency, and the boys are paid for their labor at so much per hour, and they in turn pRy for their board, laundry, their fines in court, etc. This has proven to be very beneficial, the boys being interested in making money.
The first session of the Legislature was held Jan,uary 20th, and the second on April 12th, when the following bills were passed:

The Juvenile State is located in Jackson county, Geor. gia, six miles of Athens, Ga., on the 426 acres of land given by Dr. L. G. Hardman, of Commerce, Ga. The
Southern Railway runs in front of our new building and we have a flag station known as HJuvenile State." A beautiful spring branch, sufficiently near and ample for water supply, runs through our pasture and farm and a larger stream, Sandy Creek, on the eastern border. We also have some fine forests for this day, some demolished Indian graves, and other attractions.
Being in our infancy, and having undertaken' something unique in this State and section, we have some difficult problems which we are learning to solve, as best we can by actual experience.
It is the purpose of the Association, with the assistance of our friends, to erect as soon as possible the Capitol of the Juvenile State. When erected this will be our largest and best building. Others are to be homes, cottages, shops and the like.

SEABOARD AIR LINE FREE TRAVELING
LIBRARY SYSTEM IN GEORGIA.
Tpere are very striking ~evelopments in the System as it relates to schools in Georgia, making the year's work one .of the most successful in its history. This fact is due perhaps to the general awakening along educational lines throughout the State.
Fifty (50) schools have applied for the Andrew Carnegie School Libraries and seventeen (17) Rural Com. munities for the Community Libraries. Often times these community libraries, composed of seventy-five (75) or more volumes of general literature, are located in the . school house, thereby making the literary life of the community to center in the school.
The applications for these libraries demand school betterment work, and as the applications are signed by the trustees as well as the teachers, the trustees' attention are brought to existing conditions in the school house and the school grounds, and much good is accomplished by the responsibility which the trustees assume in applying for the libraries. The applications are most interesting, as they tell of splendid effort in school improvement made by the small rural schools so as to obtain the libraries.
A number of schools have school gardens. The names of the teachers were sent early in the spring to Mr. J. C. Corbett, Horticulturist U. S. Department of Agriculture, who sent packages of vegetable and flower seed to each teacher. Several leading seedmen did the same, and when the seed came the pupils said "the seed must be planted, " hence the school garden. One of the most signal results of the school garden movement is that sev-
330

eral of the teachers have arranged to keep a community library in the school house during vacation. Once a week have Library Day, work the garden and carry out a program on horticulture and domestic science.
The requests from our teachers are varied, showing that certain teachers, if not all of them, are putting our literature to good use in the school room and are personally directing the reading of their pupils. The teachers write us that our fiction, history, travel, fairy tales and biography are reaching the children who never would otherwise have had the books, and brightening homes which heretofore have never known what joy could be found in books.
The general verdict among the teachers is that the child who reads the most proves the best scholar in the end and is constantly helped by his contact with good, clean, wholesome books.

POPLAR SPRINGS INDUSTRIAL SCHOOL, LAURENS COUNTY, GEORGIA.
Eight miles from Dublin, in Laurens county, is situated the Poplar Springs Industrial School. It has been in existence under the present system four years. The school has nine grades.
More than $3,500 have been spent for buildings and equipment, most of which sum has been contributed by a few faithful patrons and friends in the community in which the school is situated. The Dublin people have helped and Laurens county has furnished desks and blackboards, as she has her other schools. The burden of the work has fallen heavily upon this immediate locality. The teachers in charge have contributed liberally from their comparatively small salaries to keep the school alive.
Like most pioneer movements, this school has not been built without a struggle, and the struggle is only begun. The greatest task at first was to create a sentiment in favor of an industrial school. The battle against ignorance has been a fierce one; we have had new ground work all the while.
The three-room school building is not adequate for the 74 students enrolled this year. The small cottage is also too small for the industrial classes.
A ten-room dormitory, planned by Prof. Fred J .. Orr, director of Manual Arts of the State Normal School, has been built this year. The dormitory was attempted in response to three very urgent needs:
1. The need of quarters for the boarding students. 2. The need of an opportunity to help solve the -servant problem by fitting up an inexpensive laundry which may be used by students and teachers and duplicated in many of the best homes.
332

3. Lastly, but not least, the need of a home on the grounds for the teachers. The life of the Georgia school teacher in the rural district has not been one of unalloyed delight. They are and have ever been wanderers on the face of the earth. They often do not know one year or one month where they will live next. Many of them have to sleep in the winter in rooms without any means of heating and try to prepare work for the following day around the family fireside amid the roar of half dozen sleepy children.
If the teacher could be given a comfortable room on the school grounds where she could have time for quiet and rest from the perplexities of the day she could do much better work and would last a good deal longer. Many of them, who are so uncomfortably situated, would be willing to do their own housework if they could have a refuge when the day ends. Then it would not be true, as it is now, that an entirely new force is called into service every four years. Weare striving a:t Poplar to build the ideal rural school with the hope that efforts of similar nature may be attempted elsewhere and thus drive ignorance from the county.
PLANS FOR THE FUTURE.
We have made the dormitory barely habitable and must now look to some outside source for $500 or $600 with which to complete and furnish it. The laundry must be built. The hydraulic ram will supply all the water needed for it. The grounds must be improved; hedges planted; the school building needs to be enlarged. The scholarship plan must be perfected and transportation worked out. The garden work must be made more effective and nature study needs to be more thoroughly taught.
Some day we hope to have a chemical laboratory and
333

a better library. The dignity of labor and sympathy for those who work in the fields need especial attention. A greater love for the country and a higher regard for Christianity need to be instilled into the hearts of the children.
Our aim is to educate head and hand and heart.

NEGRO RURAL SCHOOL FUND, ANNA T. JEANES FOUNDATION.
HON. J. M. POUND, Atlanta, Ga. DEAR SIR :-1 beg to hand you here a list of the coun-
ties in your State in which the Jeanes Fund is assisting, together with a summary of the work in other States.
As you are aware, our purpose is to work in the public schools, and with the approval and co-operation of the regular school authorities, and I wish to bear testimony to the interest manifested by local officials.
A very general approval has been given to our plan of work, by which the teachers whose salaries we pay, endeavor, by introducing simple forms of industrial work, to make a beginning of improving the character of the small rural schools.
This Fund is far too small to enable us to reach more than a few counties in each State, but we trust that the school authorities may be induced to extend gradually the work of this kind. We recognize that at present the immediate need in most places is that a longer school term be provided for the country schools.
Yours truly, JAMES H. DILLARD, President.

JEANES FOUNDATION.
Extract from report of President at meeting held December 16,1909.
\
A majority of the teachers are termed Extension Teachers. This means that these teachers do a certain amount of actual teaching in some central school, and devote the rest of their time visiting a number of smaller schools in the county. In visiting the schools and communities they are expected to have in mind the lengthening of the term, the care and improvement of the school house and grounds, the promotion of schemes for school buildings, and the organization of the people for these purposes as well as for home and neighborhood improvement. They are also expected to start in the schools and
336

supervise simpleJorms of industrial work. Last session nearly all the teachers had classes in sewing and mending, a few taught cooking also, others a little woodwork or mat-making of various kinds, and about half of the schools made a beginning of school-gardening. .All reported that the children seemed to like such work. In some localities the plan is for the extension teacher to have classes in the several schools visited, in other places such teacher merely supervises.
The next largest class of workers consists of those who are termed Supervising Teachers. These are not attached to anyone school as headquarters, and are expected to give their time to visiting the schools and communities of a county, or a part of a county, having the same general purposes in view as the teachers just mentioned.
A third class consists of workers termed Organizers, whose duty it is to arouse and organize the people for self-help ,and for co-operation in neighborhood and school improvement.
The reports I have had thus far from these workers are an assurance of the great good that can be done. An Extension Teacher writes as foliows: "I began at headquarters by reorganizing the cooking and sewing classes and Improvement League. I give Mondays and Fridays to the work at headquarters. I have begun extension work in three communities. I believe that a great deal will be accomplished this session through this method, judging from the desire shown by the different communities of the county to have me come to them." Another Extension Teacher writes: "Since our work has begun, I have invitations from teachers and patrons to visit schools twenty and thirty miles from here and help them start the industrial work." A County Superintendent
337 .

writes in regard to the work of a Supervising Teacher as follows: "She has completed a month of very profitable work. I had her pass from school to school and to remain from two to three days in each community. Th~ children in the schools began plain sewing and basketry. I asked some of our white citizens to inspect her work, one in particular, our Health Officer. .He was enthused over the work and the plan."

GEORGIA ST!ATE INDUSTRIAL OOLLEGE FOR OOLORED YOUTHS.
In reply to your request for a report for the year, I beg to state that this has been among our best years. Our enrollment reached 490-382 boys and 108 girls. Every student is required to take some one of our eight mechanical trades', dairying or agriculture. The students gladly do this and we have therefore sent out quite a large number of graduates and undergraduates who are following their trades. We gave certificates and diplomas this year to 29.
We are now erecting by student labor a domestic science hall and will shortly introduce cooking.
The school, under the direction of a commission composed of Gen. P. W. Meldrim, Judge W. R. Hammond, Prof. Otis Ashmore, 001. P. J. Cline, is doing excellent work.
Very respectfully, R. R. WRIGHT, President.
