She & the oldest child in a family of Oft children (three brothers 'and tsro deters), and her parents and Xbm rest of the family are still in Young graduated from a high school in Seoul, JBwha Girls' High School; and attended the University of for two and a half years. University of Seoul is the ; In Korea and includes ele- different colleges. Young was the College of Liberal Afte and Science. The University •wnm coeducational and, when ask ed whether she preferred coeduca- schools or girls’ schools, answered enthusiastically that she liked women’s colleges better—for many reasons. Another difference in her college life there and here, is that in Seoul, she lived in a private house instead of in dormitories. She likes dormitory life very much, thinks that it is unusual and is very interested in it. Because she arrived late in the semester, Young is not taking any courses for credit, but is “sitting in” on several—Public Speaking, English, Sociology, and History of Civilization. She is considering both Sociology and History as major fields, but has not made up her mind yet between the two. She is very fond of her teachers and says that they have all been so kind to her. Right now Young feels that English is trouble or bothersome, but that as she speaks it more, she will improve. When asked about her life since she has been in the United States, her eyes twinkled as she told about the three days she spent in New York City immediately after her arrival in this country. She enjoyed walking along Fifth Avenue, Broadway, and Times Square, look at the big buildings. Also, she saw several movies while she was there, but she says that this was not a new experience since she often saw English mov ies in Seoul.

Seaborn, Director of the School Administration and Fi nance Committee of the State De partment of Education, after hav ing been cordially introduced by Superintendent Hendrix, discussed The Story of the Good School at the Prosperity Parent-Teacher As sociation meeting on Monday night, November 15, at 8:00 p.m. in the high school auditorium. Mr. Seaborn distributed copies of “The Story of the Good School” to each member so that each mem ber might follow along as he dis cussed fhe book. Mr. Seaborn was for a number of years superintendent of the Conway schools. In 1W7 he went with the State Department of Edu cation as State Agent for Negro Schools. In 1949 he was appoint ed by Mr. Anderson to the po sition he now holds as Director of School Administration and Fi nance. He is a native of Pickens County. “The Story of the Good School” is a book published by the State Department of Education, Colum- Drug stores in America have surprised Young somewhat in the variety of articles they have for sale. In Korea, a drpg store, is strictly what the name says—it sells "nothing but drugs. Young’s first Winthrop fire drill caused her to react just as any other Winthrop girl might act at five o’clock in the morning. The bell, of course, made her jump, and then when she became con fused in the rush, she did the sim plest thing — followed her room mate in everything she did. Young said, “I thought it was very fun ny.” And, in her appreciation, she spoke very gratefully of the help Bo Jung, who is also from Korea, has been to her. Because of Bo, Young felt easier as she has got ten to know us and has found it not so hard to make her way here at Winthrop. hia. South Carolina. Mr. Seaborn said, “It is an effort on the part of the State Department of Edu cation to show in pictures some es sentials of a good school.” The book shows the kind of PROGRAM the GOOD SCHOOL strives to carry on to help each child and all the citizens of the community become well-informed, contributing members of our soci ety. It shows the FACILITIES and EQUIPMENT necessary for the program of the GOOD SCHOOL. It shows the staff members — the kinds of people who teach and work in the GOOD SCHOOL. It shows the COST of public educa tion in South Carolina. It shows South Carolina’s SPECIAL EDU CATION PROGRAMS for those citizens who have special educa tion needs. The Good School tries to de velop a program that meets the needs of the community and that provides opportunities for (1) Training in the fundamentals: reading, writing, arithmjetic—plus —listening, thinking, and express ing oneself well. (2) Development of individuals to their fullest ca pacity: developing special talents, making wise choices, solving real life problems, growing in moral £nd spiritual behavior. (3) Prepa ration for good citizenship: ac cepting responsibility, practicing democratic principles, building healthy bodies, understanding our world, developing worthy home membership, and preparing to earn a living. The Good School plans its build ing program in the light of the needs of the community and peo ple it is to serve, provides an en vironment that will contribute to healthful living, makes provisions in its equipment and facilities to care for individual needs, makes available many materials and equipment to encourage many learning experiences.

A Good School costs money. South Carolina spent a total of 196,056,250.95 in 1952-53 for public education. The expenditures were made through several agencies for both adult programs and for public schools: By State Department of Education—$2,141,968.38, by count ies and local school districts—$85,- 524,676.00, by Education Finance Commission $4,349,600.74, by School Book Commission — $50,- 818.23, and State contribution to Retirement Fund for Educational Personnel — $3,989,187.60. During this year one county spent $101.00 per child while another spent $172.00 per child. The state average for current expenditures per child during that year was $155. The estimated National aver age for Current Expenditures per pupil for 1952-53 is approximately $220.00. To care for those persons who have special education needs which cannot be met in the pub lic schools, South Carolina has set up some special education pro grams : (1) The Area Trade School —one in West Columbia, and one in Denmark (2) Vocational Re habilitation for the physically handicapped (3) The Opportunity School, at West Columbia. Mr. Seaborn summed up a good school by giving 5 things — all Starting with the letter “p” peo ple—all working together (2) place—a physical location (3) pu pils (4) personnel and (5) pro- gram. The devotions were capably led by Dr. J. B. McFerrln, minister of the local A.R.P. Church. Dr. McFerrin gave as the 3 great in stitutions the home, the school, and the church. All must support all three. The home is the place where the child gets his first training, then the school gives training to the child for a com parative short period of time. The home and the church go on for ever giving training for the re mainder of a person's life. A pro gressive home denotes progress ive people. The school indicates the spirit of .the community. Dr. McFerrin gave some verses which show the responsibility of the parent and teacher. “Train up a child in the way he should go and he will not depart from it." “Foolishness is bound up in the heart of the child; but the rod or correction shall drive it far from him.” “Wisdom is a principal thing/*" “The fear of the Lord is the be ginning of wisdom.” “Children obey your parents I» the Lord for this is right.” “Thy word have I hid in my heart that I might not sin against thee.” “Thy word is a lamp unto my feet and a light unto my , path.”" Business Session Mrs. B.
