G|ynn Leads Georgia Coun-
lies in Number of
II!iterates
AN INTERESTING REPORT
Is Rendered the Board of Education
by Superintendent Ballard-The
County Makes a Most Ex-
ceIlent Showing

Superintendent Ballard of the pup
lie schools of Glynn county, has pro
pared his annual report to the board
of education and it contains many
interesting Iacts about education IL
Glynn county.
Among other things Supt Ballard
states that according to the United
States census of 1900. of the native
whites of over u years of age, the
per cent of illiteracy in this county
is lower than that of any other coun.
ty in the state OF Georgia. This Is
fact heretofore practically unknown
to the people Of the city. In introduc
ing his report Supt. Ballard says:
"The Glynn county school system is
perhaps the oldest county school sys
tenn in the state of Georgia Having
been established in 1888. and the pres
ent board being direct SUCCESSORS OF
the original commissioners From
its earliest establishment the schools
of the county have been supported b.
public contributions and from revenues
derived from lands dedicated in 1888
for the use of the schools of the
county 1t is perhaps the only county
system whose schools for more than
1T years have been maintained with
out tuition but as entirely and com
pletely public schools This usage
has come down to us to the present
day and both in the Grammar and
High schools there are no charges for
tuition. To every child of Glynn coun-
ty the schools are free as the air
ne breathes without cost and without
price.
This long record of public schools,
no doubt, to a great extent, accounts
for the fact, that according to ne
United States of 1900, of the n&-
tive whites over 81 years old, the per.
centage of illiteracy IS the lowest in
this county than in any other county
in the state of Georgia. This is also
true in reference to the native negroes
there being but two exceptions, Gilmer
and White counties. Gilmer having
but seventeen negroes and White a
few more. About 120 percent of the
native white illiterates, over q years
Old, and $50 percent of the native ne
gro illiterates. over 81 years Old, IS
the average of the state. Only "a
OF the white voters of Glynn county
are iiiiterate and a little less than
800 of the negroes under Il years
old"
