"You will be proud of your rating
as one of the best school's of the na
tion. You will be still more gratified
to learn that our list has been endors
ed by West. Point Military Academy,
the United States bureau of educa
tion and the leading colleges of the
nation. One hundred and fifty col
leges accept this list."
The above is quoted verbatim from
in letter just received by Superintend
! ent Harris, of the city schools and the
I county high school here from Harry
Chirk, of the University of Tennessee.
It should be a matter of extreme gratl
h'cation to the people, the taxpayers
i of the county and city and the patrons
j of the school especially, to know that.
! Maury county's Central High Sehoal
; is at the very top of the list,
i Some time ago the high school here
; was given the very highest rating by
the state department of public instruc
j tion. It was rated Al, which grade
was given to just five other big
schools in Tennessee and those were
h eated at Covington, Cleveland, Par
is and Clarksville. Xo school in the
state ranks higher than Columbia and
only four others rank as high.
Testimonial after testimonial has
(orne from the highest school authori
ties, state and national, of the efficien
cy of the school at Columbia. its
graduates can enter even the most, ex
clusive colleges in the country with
out an entrance examination and now
the school is on the select list of the
imous West Point Military Academy.
The letter from Prof. Harry Clark.
! acknowledged authority on efficiency
of schools in the South, is not only a
tribute to the school but it is a hii'h
compliment to Superintendent Harris.
