The Confederate veterans met jnK (
here in their first reunion in 1890, cotta
23 years ago. Chattanooga at that faniji
time was but poorly prepared to spmj,
care for the visitors. Hotel aeeoni- fam|]

people were suffering financially Btand
from a collapsed boom. However, bous*

| The same is true of the girl in her
cooking, bed making and table setting.
The work is done and then
used as a basis for the lessons in
books. This gives life to the class
room work. Both teachers and children
feel that they are writing, talk.
ing and figuring on actual things,
which always lends enthusiasm to
the work.
To make the school more real we
frequently invite the parents to be
present. They are made to feel that
the school is the center for their acI
tivities. Moreover they become interested
in themselves, because the
1 children, in learning useful things
are doing work that their parents
! can understand. They go home with
information about cotton, corn, winter
greens; about the care of live
stock and of soils. They gain some
idea about washing dishes, setting
the table and putting a room in
order.
The effect has been highly gratifying.
A new light has come into
the community, which shows in the
face of many of those old hardheaded
black folk, who used to be
none too enthusiastic about education.
The change is a process of
course, but there are fewer rags in
the windows in that community,
fewer toppling-down fences. This
training has taken nothing from the
"book side" of these children's education.
Their teaching is thorough
and they complete the sixth grade,
being admitted by certificate to the
corresponding class in Tuskegee Institute?and
some, preferring to
take the written test, have made the
next higher class. vVlth this double
training the children of this community
are brighter and happier and
are doing much to add sweetness
and contentment to rural life.?
