whether he is college material.
But frequently, the existence of
this potential comes as a sur

Many of them are extremely

learn that their children are

The story had its beginning
a month before when Frank

well known around Washing

A sort Of old-faShioned
bungalow it was, having a
porch, a weed-filled front
yard, overgrown shrubbery
and a Charles Adams, cob

DeHaven, accustomed to
looking beneath the surface
and visualizing what a house
could become, thought it was
q Dit unprepoSSeSSing. The
house had stood vacant two
years.
But Mr.. DeHaven's wife
encouraged him to buy it and
fix it up. She said: "You
should be able to sell it, but if
you can't sell it you can rent
it, and if you can't rent it we
can move in ourselves"
AS it turned out, Mr.. De-
Haven had a number of Of
ferS, after the house was re-
modelled, that would have
repaid him well for his work.
But his wife wouldn't let him
give up the house.

A REMODELED HOUSE
- If you look at it in
a certain way-is only a
remodeled house. But, like
the sweet uses Of adverSity,
a remodeled house can wear
a precious jewel in its head
that will tell us as much as
can Shakespeare's trees with
tongues, his wise books in
running books, and his SER
mon-speaking stones, elo-
quent with words to guide
and inspire those willing to
listen.
You can write a story about
a remodeled house, illustrate
it with before" and after"
pictures, and let it go at that.
Or you can try to put such a
project into some kind OF
perspective. You can attempt,
for example, to show the
broader significance this kind
of undertaking always has as
it bears on the future desir-
ability Of cities as good places
to live. Today's article is de-
signed to be that kind of
moral-pointing story.
Roy DeHaven is what is
called a small builder. He
started out as a carpenter
and has built and remodeled
more than a hundred houses
in the last % years. In the

WE JOIN IN THE OBSERVANCE
OF AMERICAN EDUCATION WEEK
BY Sarah Nj. Harvey

AS we join with others the country over in the OBJ
servance of AMERICAN EDUCATION WEEK, we are
greatly impressed with this years theme PRAISE AND
APPRAISE YOUR SCHOOLS" for perhaps people
anywhere need to do more 'praisng' apprais-
ing of our schools, than the Missssippians.
In APPRAISING we should seek out the many
needs in facilities and curriculum and then 60 to the
proper persons for the correction of the many unfor
tunae circumstances and situations that PREVENT
ING OUR BOYS AND GIRLS from getting an education
that offers the best in training and opportunities to be
found anywhere in the world
In APPRAISING we should be mindful of the Daily
Topic under this years main theme The Child: What
Does Education Mean to Him.; The Parents How Can
They Work for Better Schools? The Teacher What is
School Board Member: What are his responsibilities?
The Adult Citizens How the schools serve them?
The Voter: How does he make his decisions on Educa-
ton?
In APPRAISING we should take time out to go to
the various schools of cities and towns and after
finding out what is WRONG pledge our year-round sup
port and cooperation in seeing that these WRONGS are
made RIGHT
And in PRAISING let us ACCEPT WITH DIG
NIFTY AND APPRECIATION the greatly IMPROVED
FACILITIES to be found in our Educational System
throughout the State. Let not stop working for
better and better facilities but let all his observ-
ance of American Education Week, Teachers Students
and Patrons, DETERMINE to to the BEST OF OUR
ABILITY the greatly improved facilities and thus PRE-
PARE OURSELVES FOR THE BETTER AND FULLER

his words to a group of
leading American Catho-

their esteem for him in
a formal address in the
summer of 1890.
President Washington re-
piled that he believed that as
men became more liberal they
would be more likely to allow
equal rights to all worthy
members in the community,
and in this respect he hoped
to see America among the
foremost nations of the world.
