rally all the intelligent and forward
looking citizens TO the support of
higher standards OF education. Pub
lie schools ought never to be the
pawns in the game OF politics. For
tuately, we had the nucleus of such
an organization in the Parent
Teacher Association. But that so
ciety needed to be vitalized and ex-
panded until II became a Statewide
community effort TO create the very
best type of American citizenship
through our public schools.
Mrs. John B. Cleaver OF Middle
town has rendered truly patriotic
service during the past year, assist
ed by DR.. r. W. Cooper and Miss
Eta J. Wilson OF our office.
Delaware now leads every State
in the Union in such community or
ganizatlons. AS a result OF the tur-
moil and strife Of the past few years
we now have many thousands of
men and women studying each
month how to make our schools the
determining factor OF future prog
ress.'

these 62 are colored. The total
pald-up membership is 5591; of
which 1493 are residents OF New
Castle county, 1870 of Kent county
and 290s OF Sussex county. These
associations are holding at least one
meeting a month and a conservative
estimate places the number OF peo-
pie attending as at least ten thous-
and individuals, or practically ten
per cent of the entire rural popula-
tion OF Delaware.
