In nay annual report to the state
superintendent of schools | estima:-
ed the white school houses in Cobb
County, outside of Marietta, Roswell,
and the Agricultural college at
$54,0O0.OO. There are 81 white
school houses in the county. More
than half Of these belong to the
Board Of Education and are kept in
surcd by the Board. Almost all the
communities have good houses and
many of them are furnished with
the best patent desks. No new house
was built last year, but number OF
them were repaired, recovered,
painted and some had new rooms ad-
ded to Them.
| estimated also that the county

contributed by tuition fees no less
than $50, 100000, on the county
schools in 1915, of this amount, $2O,-
690.59 was received from the state.
This is only s317 to the child, yet

and many individuals who contribute
nothing whatever 10 the public

teachers.
