board has maintained cooperative
relations with departments Of educa-

ported rural school agents in eleven
States, professors Of secondary educa-
tion in eleven States and agents for
negro education in seven. The report
saws:
The most important advance in
State organization during the past
year was made in Tennessee. Hardly
less important is the recent Alabama
statute re-constructing the county
board of education.
Attention may be called to the
favorable action OF the General Edu-
cation Board on request from the
State Superintendent of Mississippi
for funds with which to initiate a
model organization in a single Missis-
sippi county. Il was pointed our that
II the present county appropriations
were supplemented great improve
ments capable Of general introduction
could be effected. The board appro-
priated $4,000 for the purpose.
"The boards first efforts in the
South were made IN secondary educa-
tion and Il is therefore not surprising
that the most marked development has
taken place in that field. The number
OF high schools continues to grow

Ing more concerned 10 improve exist.
