A MOUNTAINEER SUMMER
 SCHOOL IN VIRGINIA

After 21 teachers had each refused in turn to teach the regular schcOl at Irish Creek Hollow, in the noun tafns of Virginia, two country school teachers and 12-year old assistant invaded the district with a camping outfit and organized a summer school and an evening school that were both better attended than any school iu past years had ever been The -eE- pertinent was so successful that other isolated communities in Virg. mia arc to be handled in the same way. In stead of allowing these iso ated dis tricts to get along as best they may. state and county officers in Virgiuia Are going to send to the mountal1s every summer the very best teachers they can secure in order to provlde the educational facilities that are needed.
 Irish Creek Hollow is in a mountain valley in Rockbridge county It ls sparsely settled and remote of ac- cess. The inhabitants are mountain eers of original stock who have in-
 termarried as much as the law per mits They live in log cabins that are not even good log cabins There
 was a school building, but for several years there had beene no school No
 schoolteacher would accept the posi- tion.
 In 1911. after all attempts to get a
 regular teacher had failed, the couu- | perienced teachers to go to Irish Greek Hollow, after their own schools had closed and to open summer school.
 They carried with them tents to live in, provisions, and cooking utensils.
 School wa9 opened in the old school building, and the attendance exceeded all expectations. There were 80 chiI- dren enrolled in morning ciasse, and 30 to 40 adults in afternoon and even ing classes. The mountaineers Wero | l- ! them that summer that they built an additional schoolroom and two com
 fortable living rooms for the teach CTS.
 Public spirit had developed to such an extent the following year that when l one of the state inspectors and the
 secretary of the Virginia Cooperative
 Education Association visited the place in the summer of 1912 they were | able to organize a school and civic league and an athletic association-
