the state is to build a concrete road
from Frankford to DagsborO. The
new road leaves the dupont Boule-
ward at Cosey's cemetery and the
street to the M. E. Church; then
the old state highways to DagsbOro
on which the new school building is
located. The low bidder for the road
was the Old Line Construction Co.,

Gently built the road from here to

To the average man or woman
the opening of a new school term
is a more or less matter of course
affair, nothing to attract more than
passing attention, but something to
be endured by the children for
number of months during the year.
Not much thought is given by many
parents as to what it all may and
should mean to the boys or girls of
the family. Too often we find that
there is a decided apathy to the op-
portunities offered by a thorough
course in school; too often we see
people who cannot see the value of
school or of an education because
the returns are not Immediately ap-
parent in term of dollars and cents;
but the time is rapidly approaching
when parents more and more are
awakening, not only to the OppOr-
tunities offered for the children, but !
for the necessity of obtaining an edu-
cation. All efforts have been bent
by the State of Delaware to main
tain the highest possible type of
schools. Nothing but the best is
good enough. Old buildings are be-
ing replaced by the most modern |
that human thought and ingenuity |
can construct, and our own COM |
muniy is one of those favored by the |
State Board of Education. Frank !
ford and DagsborO, by their consoli- |
dation, made possible the erection |
of the splendid plant which is now |
in process of erection as an institu-
ton in which the youth of these
may obtain an education
which will enable them to rank
with the highest type of youth in the
land To make possible the fullest
of the building the
schools have been organized on the
Junior-Senior high school basis. The
is not yet complete in
asmuch as there is always necessary
quite a considerable amount of work
in making such change. But when
the new plant is ready for occupancy
The pupils and faculty will be able
to move into it and proceed without
any break IN the work. To make
success of this plan the continued
cooperation of the parents is neces-
sary as that factor is always one of
The most vital to the success of any
activity in which the children are
We, therefore, earnestly
solicit the cooperation and valu-
lble assistance of our patrons. The

which has been set by the pupils as
heir goal, and if the training of the
youth is made joint matter be-
ween the school and the home sue
