Problems of Rural Schools tc.
Receive Attention AT the
Fourth International Con-
gress on School Hygiene.
(National News Association)


NEW YORK, July 16.-The Little
Red School House is to occupy a place
of honor on the program of the Fourth
International Congress on School Hy-
giene, according to statement issued
by the program committee, which is
composed of Drs. Robert w. Lovett
and David l.. EdsalI of Harvard; DR..
Luther Fl. Gulck OF New York, and DR..
Thomas A. Storey of the College of
the City of New York, Secretary Gen
eral of the Congress.
1.-THE problems of the city schools
have received a great deal of much
deserved attention" say the members
of the committee in their announce
ment of the program. The very SER
ious problems of the village school
and of the rural school have received
but little attention. The study and the
solution of these problems are of OBJ
vious completely and Importance. The
committee is therefore anxious to Sc
cure papers relating to rural school
hygiene and village school hygiene as
well as to city school hygiene"
In a report issued at Washington,
United States Commissioner of Edu
cation, Philander ?. ClaXton calls at
tention to the subject OF the Little Red
School in the following terms:
Until very recently few careful
studies of the rural schools have been
made, and we yet have little accurate
information about them and little
knowledge of the factors entering into
the problem of their improvement.
We do know in general way that
their terms are short, their support in
adequate, their teachers poorly pre-
pared, their attendance irregular, their
management unscientific and wasteful
of money, time and energy, their
courses of study ill-adapted to their
needs and the houses in which the
children are taught are cheap and
poorly furnished and equipped. That
this is not true of all rural schools
goes without saying, but it is unfor-
tunately true in large measure of
most of them"
In all there are 212 900 one teacher
little red school houses in the United
States alone. according to the Wash
ington report prepared by A. c. Mona
han. In this report there is a picture
of one teacher rural school house
which is characterized as "A fair type
of about one-half of the $4,000 one
teacher rural schools" Most of the
original red paint seems to have been
washed off these schools.
"A general impression has been Gre
ated," says Mr., Monahan, that there
exists an American school system
which is sufficient and nation wide.
with equal educational opportunities
in all parts of the country. The inn
preston is erroneous. 1t is probably
true that the public schools, both ur
ban and rural, have made consider
able progress, but the marked pro-
gress has been confined almost wholly
to the city and town. The majority of
