Consolidation of schools is going on
to such an extent in the United States
that, even with a building boom in
progress, many localities report fewer
schools each year. Tennessee offers
some notable examples. Knox county
has erected IA new buildings during
the year, yet the total number of
schoolhouses in use has been reduced
from 154 to 1856. How consolidation
helps attendance is shown by another
TENNESSEE county, Uauderdale) where
a new consolidated school had twice
the enrolment of the combined three
schools which it replaced. The better
consolidated school attracts better at
tendance, despite the fact that 1t is
less easy to reach.

Rivers ended things in the tenth
