" - THE UTTLP REP SCHOOLHOUSE J j The little red schoolhouse has been one of the most sig s nificant of all American landmarks for riiore than a century It is part of the background of millions of Americans; it jibs Deen me starting post ipr many of tno nation a most successful men; and it lives today it) a halo of sentiment, ft thing' as' 'indisputably and typically American as' co'rn on the cob. "But Qwen D. Young was quite right in his recent warning to the National' Education association that we must bend very effoit to getting the little red schoolhouse off of the Bcena. " " "" '' 5 The rural villages of the red schoolhouse's heyday, Sir. iioung points out, were self-contained and self-suppprtjlig. .They were islands, remote and isolated. The cultural life il of the nation was' centered in the cities; to the cities, coil m 'eequently, " went the ambitious and energetic young men m AS soon as the red schoolhouse had got through with hjm J Today the wind of change' is blowing over the land. New JJ economic conditions foreshadow a decentralization of indus- JJ try, of population and of culture. Tlie small town is due 2 for a rebirth. The old barriers that isolated it have vanished forever.' ' ""-'V "''.',y-" But, says Mr. Young, "we will not get this change in coun- try jife without good schools. People will not move there or even stay there if the educational facilities for their chjl- dren me iiindequate. Tlie scliools are the key which S unlock the country for modern living." ; m " All of this Is perfectly true; and no one who has traveled 3 through rural districts in recent years 'can faij to realise S Jthat ft tremendous start has already been made in the right JJ direction. Tlie fine new schoolhouse is more and more Ije- JJ coming the' cultural and architectural center about which J the life of the small town is built, ilany and many a toyhi has 'spent more riioney than ijt could really afford to give its children' the hest schoojhduse possible. ' ' f 'Tliat is a healthy trend. Our democracy nnist skind or fall by its educational system, and the denvmds which it will jit piake on its schools in the immediate future will be greater than ever before. Tlie little red schoolhouse, 'enormously 5J Uefui as' it has been,' has outlived its day. The American Jj scene will lose one of its dearest landmarks but it wil get som6thjng better to take its place.
