Education in Rankin County Before and
After the War.

Although the schools were few in lumber
before the war, there were some that had high
curicuums, taught by scanned professors,
who were well paid andthe attendance was
large.
Centenary College, afterwards removed to
jackson, Louisiana, was located near where
Tom Rogers now lives, about 8 miles east of
Brandon and was an institution of learning
that enrolled large number Of students from
this state and Louisiana. The Brandon Co..
Iege reorganzed in 1849 by President Thorn
ton was at once given nnerited high standngl
and old students assert that he was one Of
the best men this county ever had within nerI
borders and was an educator whose superior
has never been found in this section.
After the war its name was changed tol
the Brandon Female College, whose principal
until her death, was the we'll beloved Miss
Frank A. Johnson. Her teaching and thel
urandness of the pure transformations life thatl
sweet woman lived left it's impress which isl
still felt here and will be for years to come.

For number of years there has been an
educational awakening in this state and
Rankin is keeping well in the front ranks.
All educational activity is not progress and
much substantial progress does not have out
ward signs of such character as to be readily
recognized. Everything else equal, we may
measure progress by the material prosperity
of a county and Of that countys Willingness
to contribute due proportion GIFTS material
increase to the cause Of education. Rankin
has been liberal in her levy for schools, which
with good state appropriation, in some COM
|munties further supplemented by local SUBJ
scrptions, speaks in actions louder than
words revealing a sound educational senti-
|ment.
Considering the large enrolment and the
|daiIy ate ndance our public schools have all
lshoWn decided progress.
The average length Of term in all the public
schools has increased from 40 days to 115.
The people too have come to realize that
teaching is a science Of well established prin-
lcipIes and an art Of very difficult process.

teachers al more and more there is a demand
