Shannon School Rally

shannon, Sept. 1S.--The shannon
school rally was in every way sue
cess. About a thousand people We're
in attendance. The school grounds
and park had been beautifully deco
rated by the school children, their
teachers, the directors, and the pa
irons The following schools were rep
resented Biggers, Brown. Carter. Con-
solidated District Number 1, Lester
vile, Holmes, Sanders Dean. Mere
dith, and shannon.
The program was unusually fine. al
most every school taking part. Hon
orable A. b. Hill, state Superintend-
ent of Public instruction, spoke for
more than an hour on the needs Of the
schools in Arkansas. He emphasized
the fact that Arkansas can never ex-
pect to have better schools until she
employs better prepared teachers. In
part he said: ''The most expensive
teacher is the one that can usually be
employed for the least money" He
urged school directors to employ the
best possible teachers. He also said
that the problem Of education is a
state problem, not a district problem.
All the property of all the people Of
all the state should be taxed to main
tain the schools. Mr.. Hill believes
that railroads and all other corpora
tiOns Of the state should be taxed to
educate the children regardless Of
where the children may be located.
Mr.. Henry, President of the Coop
erative Cotton Growers Association
spoke on the subject of marketing cot
ton. He told the farmers that they
were good cotton growers, but that
they were very poor cotton sellers.
That one reason for the South's power
ty today is because of the poor mar
keting system. He said that no one
is to blame for this condition more
than the people of the South them
selves. He said that We through lack
of intelligent marketing had built up
a system Of marketing that forced the
farmer to almost give his cotton away
One Of the best features Of the en-
tire program was the parade in which
more than four hundred children took
part In the parade each child wa'
carrying the GLORIOUS Old Red Whit,
aHd Blue" Every school had its ban
ner with its motto. The banner car
ried by the Shannon school said 1--WE
Vote Fifteen Mills. and II that ism
enough we will make 1t twenty five."
In writing about this great educa
tional day we must not forget to men
tion the big dinner prepared by the
good women of every community re
presented. You never saw more tC
eat it makes no difference wher,
you've been. No one on earth would
have given the time and hard labol
that it took to prepare such dinner
except the mothers. They are Away
willing to make any sacrifice for theil
children.
This rally has proved beyond doub
that there has been a great education
al awakening in Randolph county.
