CLIMAX OF CAMPAIGN FOR BETTER SCHOOLS DRAWS LARGE CROWD
The largest crowd ever accomodated in the Richmond High school attended ;the night session held Thursday evenI Ing to celebrate "Better School Week". Nearly 2,000 people, including visitors t and students, thronged the high school halls. Of this number 1.000 -were visitors. The halls, the, classrooms, the auditorium, and the gymtna&ium were filled with people. During the three periods of classes Z parents and students sat two in a t seat while many more were lined up c round the rooms. A large crowd was : in Ihe auditorium most of the evening watching the slides which were shown. ; The auditorium was filled at 9:00 when the chapel exercises were opened with a short concert by the high ; school orchestra under the direction of Prof. J. E. Maddy. Superintendent ; of Schools, J. H. Bentley. In a short talk, Introducing the speaker of - the "evening, Dr. H. I Smith, of Indiana tmiverslty, called attention to the fact ", that the schools are the biggest single ."enterprise In the entire community, iand that more money is spent for schools than for any one or any two Z ether projects together In the com- ' niunity. Tremendous Business. : "The budget for the schoola is ; larger than for the city" Prof. Bentley ; stated. He explained how the new Z junior high school buildings would re- - P.eve congestion in the high school. The freshmen will be divided between tlie two new buildings, leaving only three years of work instead of four ;in the present high school building. -At present 950 students are accor modated in the high school, which is supposed to have a capacity for 725. ; Dr. Smith in opening his talk, said -that these meetings were not only being held over the state and nation so that poor schools may become better ' schools, but also that "good schools ' may become better schools." "Richmond," he said, "falls m the ' second class The local campaign 1s : eing conducted because we are realizing the emergency of education. Tin veil has been lifted by the war." It was discovered. Dr. Smith pointed out, that the average schooling for one million drafted men was less thai . sixth grade and one out of evry four were illiterate, while one-third were physically defective, and the efficiency of foreigners was lowered because they did not understand our ideals. New Value on Education. "As a result of this," he said, "a new value has been placed on educatlona so that the walls of this building ' and colleges in the country are crowd- ' ed with young people seeking greater opportunities." Lack of buildings, lack : of expansion, and adequate equipment ; handicaps the progress now he said. Speaking of the new buildings to re erected here he said that though the cost would be tremendous they T ere for Ihe nation's greatest asset. He praised the people here for the work they were doing in education and pd that Indiana's present status of 17th Place in the field of education had reunited because Tndiana "had rested . on oars". In fieures presented Dr.
snutfj siiowed that he people or tne : Tilted States spend $22,000,000,000 a vpar on luxuries "which is 25 times as much as they spend on education." Following the address one more rnniber was played by the orchestra. . School authorities and students expressed appreciation of the fact that so many "parents, patrons, and taxpayers" showed such great interest in the schools by their attendance at the ppRpion Thursday evening. Much credit for the success is due to the ommittee who planned it, composed of Mr. Taggart, Miss Williams, Mr. Rice, and Mr. Cline.
