which to buy, hence the wheels of
industry Jiave to stop. As a result
the trend of the population is from
the cities back to the. farms. This is
attested to by the fact that over.seven
hundred thousand people returned
to the soil this past year.
With such increasing1 pressipv on
the rural situation, savs
education must fall in line. Our pro.b
lem then is to make teachers 'realize
iust how neerlected rural school sec
vice is by-making usc of the following
possible solutions.
1. None elective educational Jegislatioo.
2. Special appropriations . by legislature.
More strict certification, of

More and effective work in preparing
rural school teachers.

facts.

thousand school structures, two thousand
of them are one tacRer or two
teacher ones and they are in adequate

average of eight thousand dollars for

ceive an average-"wage of less "thart

the speaker, "South Carolina needs
to' be congratulated on not scattering
the state Negro educational fund
among many institutions as some
other Southern states have done."

in the Smith Hughes and Smith Lever
