"After a brief ceremony in the As- sembly room, the school routine was again taken up with renewed vigor. , "Only those who have realized the tragedy of rural schools in these United States can know the inestim- able value to a community of a school- house properly built, properly ventil- ated and properly equipped. Only a teacher knows the relationship be- tween a pupil's morale and his physic- al comfort. Only a schoolmaster knows the effect of surroundings upon a teacher's efficiency.
