The attitude of the people can be determined by the condition and standing of its school. The fu ture of a community is left in the hands of the pupils who are fitted for life by the school. The boy3 and girls of today are the rulers of the future. If the school does not provide for a good education and fit the , scholar for his future life the community is eventually the loser.. When a school does not come up, to standard, there are people who can afford to send their children away and workers in the mills and shops who are not tied down . and can move away. When these people leave, the community "is the loser for the stores lose trade, the employer his worker, and the school its pupil. ' The first thought of a family with children is of school for they realize the advantage of a good education. For this reason no family with children in school will move in a town where the schools are in adequate. In every business the pas sing years bring changes. It is the same in , school life. What was modern twenty years ago is" old now. A school to be up to date must change its system in order to cope with the changing conditions and complex social order. The school of twenty years ago fitted its pupils for the world of that time but this is not adequate for the changed conditions of today. It is very important that the children of any community be fit ted for the present, for they are the rulers and leaders of the future. It is a handicap to the child to be de prived of a fitting education. He is not prepared for a college life nor to start out in the community . as a citizen. So we see that the success of a community can be directly trac ed to the schools. Alumni Helen Hansell, a student at W. S. C, spent the week-end visiting her parents in Athena.
