MEMPHIS SCHOOLS CLOSE.
COTTON PICKERS NEEDED.

/ MEMPHIS, TENN, Sept. 21.--And
this is the way one of the Memphis
dalies tells the story of Negro edu-
cation.
sThe reckoning field of snowy
white cotton now is about democrat
izing the rural Negro schools in at
tendance. So many of the Negro
students at the county institutions
have felt the call of the cotton bag
and boil that the board of education
deems 1t necessary to close the schools
temporarily on Friday, September 8,
II was announced yesterday.
THE board took this step as an
alternative to enforcing the states
compulsory school attendance law.
Members OF the board believe the
Negroes are needed badly in the cotton
fields, and. can accomplish as much
for the economic condition of this sec
ton by dragging a bag between the
rows as by enforced attendance at
school, and consequently causing a
labor shortage.
The board will decide at It's meet
ing early in October the date for the
re-opening of the Negro schools.
About 1000 students are affected by
the closing ORDER
