A county School Director suggests that
the advocates of the Albaugh Bill get
out into the country and take a few notes
among the country directors. We are
that the average Jackson Coun-
ty School Director will compare very
favorably, for general information, with
the advocates of the Albaugh bill, at
Columbus. 1t is quite amusing to hear
the dudes in the cities talking about the
illiteracy of the country people. We defy
any County in the State to show better
grade of Schools, better Teachers, or al
more intelligent and we'll informed set of
directors, than Jackson County. We do
not need any change here.
