COUNTRY SCHOOLS 80 g..
AND COUNTRY ROADS

Eleven years ago the condition OF
the schools in the country districts
of Virginia was generally pretty bad
There were a number of little one
and two-room school houses, each in
charge of a single teacher. The ed
ucation obtainable there was better
than nothing but not to be compared
with the instruction which can be
given in graded schools with three
to eight teachers. So the state super
intendent of public instruction, J,
D. Eggleston, now president Of the
Virginia Polytechnic Institute, began
campaign for the consolidation of
the country schools. This aroused a
great deal Of opposition at first.
Many farmers thought the project
would merely remove the educational
facilities Of the, one-room !; school
thouse farther from their children
and make their schooling more dif-
icult without adding any advantages.
This -opRosition was gradually over
come apd there hassbeena y steady
Improvement Of Virginia public
schools in the country, simultaneous
ly with the Improvement Of the
roads Of the state.
The two real objections to the
introduction Of consolidated, graded
schools, centrally located, sfofSthe
older system were sparseness Of the
school population and the had con.
dition Of the roads The latter was
the more serious obstacle in many
sections, and still continues to be
the leading preventi1ssof the. syste.
matte education of many ofthe chill.
dren in the commonwealth. Good
roads and good schools have gone
ahead side by side, whichever i'm.
provement was carried out first
There has been, hardly 9 case where
q central graded school was bull
before roads were improved tha'
the pupils and parents did not force
the good roads subjectsto the from
at once and bring about an early i'm
provement Of the highways. Presi
dent Eggleston recently told the fol
lowing story as iIlustratine this fact

indescribably bad; at times during
the. winter the red clay soil became
q bottomless mud and travel by
wagon was impossible. The trustee
had neved seen ready-made school
wagons and he took it for granted
that if they were strong enough for
other sections Of the country they
would answer in the Green Bay dis
trict. So he bought two of them,
but in less than six weeks they had
practically gone to pieces. On one
occasion, when a pair of mules with
one of these school wagons became
mired in an enormous mud puddle
and was finally driven out, they pull
ed after them about a third of the
wagon leaving the remainder and all
the children still marooned.
Although this experience would
have discouraged the average trus-
tee, it merely. increased the determi-
nation of the Green Bay man to
overcome the Obstacles. He bought
two ordinary farm wagons, fitted
them with "sommon sense" springs,
seats and; tops, and succeeded in de-
hvsrings tho children at1ssAool regu-
laray with these rough vehicles. The
trips were by no means easy, how
ever, and the grumbling Of the chill
dren finally aroused the parents 10
the results Of their neglect Of road
improvements. With some reluc-
tanee theysheld a meeting at which
the: supervisors were asked to In
crease thetfoad tax in that school
district and to improve the roads
leading out from the central school,
This was done, and as result :ot
the determination Of a single indi-
vidual good education and good
roads were finally introduced in the
community. =;
Another incident Of showing the
change Of feeling in Virginia has
been mentioned by President Eggles-
ton. "A one-room school was closed
and a wagon put in service to carry
tho children to = central grade
school. A. widow living near the
closed school, which was attended
by her daughter, retained a lawye,
to compel the trustees to return to
The old system, but lost. the case,
Finally she became much pleased
with her daughters progress in the
central school and when, on account
of financial troubles, it was decided
to take off the school wagon and re.
open the ione-rootn school, the widow
promptly retained the same attorney
to prevent this if possible. e. e.
Ten years observation in Virgins
has. convinced President, Egglestor
that the following statements are
