Book Description
Excerpt from Educational Survey of Walker County, Georgia The biggest public problem confronting Walker county, undoubtedly, is the proper education of the children future citizens of the county. No other compares with it in present importance or projects itself so far into the future. In proportion as people are more im portant than property will their training mean more than any' possible development of the material resources of the county. Ill fares the land, to hastening ills a prey, Where wealth accumulates and men decay. But more serious thought and business-like planning and liberal financial support has been given to the development of the material interests of Walker county than to the con struction of an efficient public school system, as evidenced by the greater progress accomplished, court house and jail, public road system, agriculture, etc., etc. As compared to these we would call attention to the photographs and de tailed descriptions of the school houses and school equip ments of the rural schools given in this report. A good public road system makes a good public school system possible, and neither can be had with-out both lib eral financial support and strong central expert administra tion. Local initiative or administration never accomplishes either. Administration and supervision should always come from the same source as the support, and in the same pro portion.
