A SHAMEFUL HERITAGE

Commenting on the conditions
found in the census of the schools of
Telfair county Editor Kelly Simmons
of the Telfair Enterprise makes this
passing note:
"One gentleman connected with this
work stated that he encountered two
boys who were practically grown that
had never been to school and could
neither read nor write. When asked
if they would like to go to school, they
both choroused they certainly would.
| Asked why they never attended
school, they stated their father would
not send them.
ut is shame and disgrace that a
promising lad or lassie should be all
lowed to attain young manhood or
young womanhood in an enlightened
land like this without at least the rud,
iments of an education. 1t is enough
to make us feel that it is not he en-
lightened land that we are wont to
boast of,
"Telfair county is making some i'm
provements in her school conditions.
She must make even better. There
is no reason why the children of to-
day should attain their majority with
out splendid common school educa-
ton They should have comfortable
buildings, too. The Enterprise has
/ long contended that we should have
countrywide taxation and we are more
/ firmly convinced that we should have
it and last but not least, the SEM
blance of compulsory law we now
have should be enforced"
! The shamful heritage for the child,
the lasting monument to ignorance
which the parents raise over their
own graves, the crime of all crimes
against the elevation of the boy and
girl to a higher plane of living. is the
total indifference of a people to the
maintenance of a good school system.
The Cordele dispatch. (Cordele, Ga.) 19??-1971, 1918-08-06

Are there boys and girls among us
that can say after we are dead and
gone that we would not send them
to school? You may buy farm lands
and work hard to pay for them so
that when they "step Off you can
give your boy and your girl start in
life, or you may lay up the cash for
them, but you can give them nothing
better than plain unfrilled schooling.
Your money and your lands will count
nothing beside their education. 1t is
no crime to have both, but first edu-
cate them and you have prepared
them to be the men and women of
power and influence in the years
when you are dead and gone. You
have made it possible for them to
have better schools for theirs and
their nieghbors' children, for they
know the meaning.
Send your children to school and
make their school days mean some
thing to them. They will need their
training.
