Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from Beautifying Our Schools The steadily growing movement in Virginia to beautify the exteriors and interiors of school buildings, and to improve and beautify school grounds, is one of the most hopeful indications of our progress. Preventable ugliness is a sin, and most of it, like most ill-health, is preventable. The schoolhouse and schoolyard make a decided impression on children who are very impressionable. If the school and schoolyard be ugly, the impression is not a good one. If beautiful, the impression is pleasing and elevating. One of the main lines of the Co-operative Education Association is the beautifying of schools and school grounds. The Executive Secretary of this Association, Mr. J. H. Binford, is making a specialty of this work, and he is meeting with great success, not only because he can give excellent advice in such matter, but because the friends of education are responding to his efforts. This essential feature of educational progress has my unreserved approval, and I trust that pupils, teachers, superintendents, trustees, and people will keep Mr. Binford busy answering questions, giving advice, and visiting communities that like wholesome and pleasing schools rather than ugly ones. "The school, adjusted to neighborhood needs, is the seed corn from which shall spring first the blade, then the ear, and finally the full corn in the ear of the new conception of country life."
