Haycock’s Statement.
Tn connection with the Janney dedi- |
ration exercises. Assistant Supt. lhiy- ■
cock issued a statement today de- ,
scribing the development of the pub- j
lie schools in Tenleytown. It follows: |
"The public schools In the Tcnly- j
town section have had an interest- ■
ing development. Before 1874 all ot |
the suburban schools of the District j
of Columbia were under a separate ,
Board of Education—in fact, in those |
days there were four separate boards. J
one for the Georgetown schools, one ;
for the Washington schools, one for j
the county school and one school
for colored people. After the con- j
solidation of the boards in 1874 Mr. I
Joseph R. Keene became the super
vising principal of all the county
schools, known as the sixth and later
the seventh division. The supervi
sion of the Tenlytown schools was
given over to Mr. Bernard T. Janney
as supervising principal in the reor- j
ganization of schools in 1906: thus j
the Tenlytown schools became asso- !
dated with the Georgetown schools.
“In those early days the pupils in
Tenlytown vicinity attended two
frame schoolhouses. one located on
Grant road, and the other on the
Tunlaw road. near the Lough
borough road. The old Grant Road j
School was built in 1864 and was j
later improved in 1880. hut was never
large enough to accommodate more
than two classes. This school was
supplanted by the Chevy Chase
School, erected farther north, near
the District line, in 1889.
Old School Burned.
“The old school on Tunday road
in March. 1574. was burned to the
ground. In Tenlytown a small
building was erected in 1882. This
structure was enlarged in 1896 at
a cost of $28,000. Today on an ad
joining site we are dedicating th<;
handsome new Bernard T. Janney
School, an eight-room structure
which contains also a combination

The Rainbow Automatic Ironer will iron
practically everything in one-third to one
quarter the time —a shirt in five minutes,
children’s rompers in three to five minutes.
Dresses, ruffles, curtains and the linens, are
all beautifully ironed in almost no time.
You can do this yourself.
Best of all you are seated comfortably while
you guide the pieces. A gentle touch with
your finger tips on the control bar and the
motor does the work for you.
Why iron the old way when you can have
the Rainbow.
