WORK CREDITS
ARE AWARDED
Than at Adamston and North
view Schools as Cherry
Camp Does So, Too.

II. G. Lockney under Salem post
mark and date of January 4, writes
the editors of the Telegram as fol-
lows:
Enclosed you will find an article
clipped from your paper of this date
written by Prof. c. M. Bailey, of the
Northview school, relative to credit
given in school for work done in the
homes, in which he says: II believe
this is the only place in West Virginia
at the present time where this kind
of work is being done; and ask
space to correct his impression in this
regard. My pupils in the Cherry
Camp school are given credit in
school for the work done in the
homes and it has created great en-
thusiasm among patrons and pupils
throughout my district.
This is the first term l have
taught in Harrison county and this
method of adapting the work of the
schoolroom to the activities of the
community was unknown here, but 1t
has wrought great good and aroused
such unusual interest among all the
people that I have thereby secured
the earnest cooperation Of all the
patrons, to such an extent that we
are having enthusiastic social CEN
ter meetings and old-time spelling
bees such as have been heretofore I'M
known in this vinicity. Although l
have introduced this method in some
other parts of this state, 1t has never
shown greater results than here, in
Tenmile district.
It is a pleasure to me to know that
Professors Carder and Bailey are do
ing this kind Of work, for feel that
we can never get to our best as teach
ers until we can adapt the work in
our schools to the activities of the
pupils in their homes and trust the
day is not far distant when We will be
able to teach domestic science, man
ual training and agriculture in our
rural schools, and when the taxpay-
ers once learn that we are teaching
their sons and daughters to do things
as well as to know things, 1t will not
be long until funds will be provided
with which to better enable us to do
the work required of us to make our
schools greater success.
