EDUCATION WEEK WILLIAMSBURG COUNTY (Continued from page one) start and make of our country the finest kind ^f example of what civilization can do for the world. The education campaign will par 1 1? ~i. ~-f vn,^l tlCUlttny tlic nttuo ui luiai schools. Too much cannot be said on this subject in Williamsburg. Our schools are a disgrace to us. It is a shame that because children live in the coujitry they must be content with poor schools and lack of modem equipment. If we ran our farms on the same principle, where would agriculture be today? We hope in this campaign to secure the better cooperation of patrons. Mothers and fathers are too prone to think schools are entirely the affair of teachers and trustees. We hope to arouse each parent in this county to make an effort to do all in his or her power to make the school in their community a better institution. These are some of the aims of Education Week, and your support' is earnestly solicited. Yours sincerely, MRS. LOUIS W. GILLAND, Publicity Chairman. Speaking Appointment.
