The ground has been surveyed for the location of the New Fremont- Kedron-Hampton consolidated school building. The plot contains five acres.

A hint to the wise is sufficient. I am in receipt of the followinlg let ter this week: v "Halls, Tenn., June 7, 1920. Supt. B. A. "Vaughn, Union City, Tenn., Dear Mr. Vaughn: I noticed in the Commercial Appeal that you have consolidated some schools and are making plans for better . work. Are these positions going to pay suf ficient salary to command a good school man? I am available for the coming year. Please let me hear from you. - -Respectfully, N. S. NEW, Supt. Halls High School." In the above letter there Is a text fvom which a glowing and vital gos pel of schools could be written. I wish- I could write the Superinten dent of Halls High School that Obi on County had a consolidated school with a position in it which would be attractive to him to fill as leader of a large group of juiral schools. It is well worth while for the father ana mother to ponder over a thought on this point if they ever hope for their children to be educated whiLe the children are at home. " v I was talking last Sunday to two patrons of Weakley County who live in a consolidated district that takes nine wagons to transport the pupils to the school. This school has an enrollment of over three hundred pupils, has five teachers, as I re member, has an eight acre campus, has a handsome two-story, modern, up-to-date building, and has a cot tage on the campus in which the principal may live if he or she has ever had the bravery or the indis cretion to face the problems of mak ing a home while in the business of teaching rural schools. I read this spring in the Commercial - Appeal about the closing everclses of .this school. It had a commencement ser mon, graduating exercises, and was visited oy state superintendent ai- r -11 h .

I wonder if this would not sound like Greek and Sanskrit to the rural school children of Obion County and to a large number of us grown up folks. Think about such work as this going on rignt square out in the country Sr-no feiinw is arrowing eloauent right now saying such a thing is im possible in Obion County, for they sure would have had to do without school last winter down here -in Obion County on account of the roadc; yet there was not a day last winter that the nine wagons did not make their regular trips and the soil of weakley is not very ainerent fron-. that bf Obion in the charac teristic of getting muddy. Another one is saying that sucn a system, would break up the Rockefellers, Vanderbilts. and all other fellows who have money. But old Weakley County, whose soil (or a very great nnrtlnn of lt is too DOOr to SDrOUt peas without fertilizer, is maintain ing such work, ana tne ining i no tice about it is that every time they anliriata in that COUntV theV form a little bigger district than they did previously, the climax so rar naving been reached In the above mentioned (whnol Also, one mieht as well say the rural routes are impossible be cause of the roaus, yet tne u. a. man raoa nrnntlcallv all the time.
