SuDerlntendeHt's Endorsement

WORsHAAf, VA, Oct 20, 'O3.
Editor Heraid;-l heartily endorse
your plan for furnishishing libraries to
the public schools, and will take great
pleasure in selecting suitable books foI
the schools winning the prizes. Your
offer seems TO me very liberal one,
and trust may be the means ol
giving to our children a large number
of readable books.
Ofall our needs / consider this oul
greatest. a library in each schoolrOom
would awaken the minds OF the chill
dren, make them better students, give
them an added interest in the school,
make them more regular in attendance
and open to them a world OF good
things Of which very few OF them get
even a glimpse. And the parents
would also derive great pleasure from
these books when they were taken
home by the children.
Very truly yours,
j. ID. EGGLEsrON, JR.
