Pakllo Schools In 'the Sooth.
Prominent in the eductttonal cauae of
the south Is the Influential organisation,
the Daughtera of the Confederacy
which adopted resolutions a year or two
ago pledging Its support to the ytibllo
school system s extension snd develop
ment. Still snother force working pow
erfully for the sdvance haa been, of
course, the board of southern education
of which the leading spirit for years
past haa been Robert C. Ogderi of New
York. The -rood effect of the twelfth
annual conferences for the promotion of
education which that board has held In
southern cities cannot be overestimated.
At the recent conference at Atlanta,
under the auspices of the Ogden boardi
ths sta.te superintendent , of .schools in
Georgia. Ur Found, presented a sutnmaiy
of th work now being done In the south,
the data having been gathered from the
official reports of the school superintend
ent In fourteen southern states. In
presenting s brief digest of the facts so
creditable to the new educational move
ment, one may quote directly from the
excellent abstract of Superintendent
Pound's paper sent by an Atlanta correa
pondent to the New York Tribune;
The summarised report of the stste
superintendents of schools show that In
AlnhAinn there are six white and thieo
negro normal schools. The state has also
appropriated JB.onn annually for the main
tenance of a summer school for teachers.
Arkansas has one normal school. Florlia
has established summer trslnlnr schools
for teachers. Genrglu. perhaps le"ds In
thla feature of educational development,
there belm," eleven district agricultural
high schools, two normal schools and one
summer school. Kentucky hss a normal
school for whites and another for negroes.
Louisiana has one normsl school. The
stste leoilnture of Mississippi has pncii
a law which provides for one agricul
ture! hth school in each count v. This lew
appropriates 11.000 annually for each of
these schools and requires esch county to
grant at least twenty normal departments
In ss many selected hl-h schools. The
Virginia polytechnic Institute is also do
inr good work along thene lines.
The state sunerlntendents are grently en
couraged by the establishment by leeHln-
tive appropriations and enactments of many
new high schools a type of public school
which haa hitherto been remarked In south
ern rursl neighborhoods mainly by Its ab
sence, list year Georgia increaaed ma
terially Its number of stato high schools.
The Kentucky legislature passed a bill pro
viding for the establishment of one or more
high schools In each of the counties. The
Louisiana lrgialature at It last session
provided for additlonsl high schools and
laboratory equipment for the old as well
as the new ones. The high school move
ment in South Carolina la reported as
"most encouraging." A number of new
high schools have been built In thnt state
during the last year and a number are still
under process of construction. Tennessee
Is arranging for comprehensive hiah
school system, snd the stnte, it Is believed,
will soon make large appropriations toward
It. Texas Increased Its number of high
schools by thirty In the last fiscal year. In
Virginia there a'- n".w J2i high schools;
two years ago there wore only sixty-seven.
Edacatlonal otes.
Dr. A. A. Murphree. president of the
State College for Women at Tallahassee,
hss been elected president of the University
of Florida and has accepted. He succeeds
Dr. Sledd, who resigned.
The University of Illinois announces the
appointment of Dr. E. B. Lytle as secretary
of the commit tre on teachers appointments
st the university. This new office Is made
necessary by reason of the growing de
mands upon the time of the high school
visitor, who, ss chairman of the committee,
hue heretofore attended to the correspond
ence.
Members of high school fraternities In
Columbus, both hoys and girls, are refus
ing tn obey th Ohio law agnlnst belonging
to school secret fraternities. Backed by
some older people, the rebels are axertltig
that the statute Is unconstitutional. At-
' tornev General Orant Denman hnl.l the
.'contrary view. He ha announced that a
en
of Illinois, snd In his opinion Ihe sum-en'
court of Ohio would take the same ground.
Dr. Draper has shown In Ms public ad
dresses s keen appreciation of the noed of
trade schools which should really fit hoys
snd girls for the work nf earning their
living ssvs the Brooklyn Eavle. He Is
one of the few educstors of distinction who
believe in making trade training of equ"
importance with book teschlna. That would
mean a read adaptation of the public
school to the needs of the children who at
tend them. At present those schools sre
nsrt of a Procrustean system whleh he
the college at the lop as ths goal of every
student. That Is eminently right for the
mlnorltv who csn or will ao to college,
but It la cruel Injustice to the sreat mi
torltv who must lesve school In their teens
to force their teecWng slnng the lines of
th needs of the college minority.
