Mr. Swearingen says:
These schools furnish the truest and
finest index to the educational prog

to country boys and girls fuller op.
portunities, longer school term, a
larger and stronger teaching corps. a
broader course Of study and a better

Of these pupils shall be in the class

seven months throughout the State.
Any community where so children are
