Excerpt from Plans for Rural School Buildings: With Estimates of Cost and Forms of Specifications and Agreements "Show me your school-houses," said a shrewd farmer. "They will tell me more about the people of your township than I can learn in any other way. The school-houses have no prejudices, they speak the truth, and the whole truth, about the attitude of your municipality towards all that makes for genuine progress." That farmerwas right. "Like people, like school," is true oftener than it is not. The school is closely related to the home. The progress of the one should keep pace with the progress of the other. The log school-house belonged to the days of the log shanty with its trough-covered roof. The unpainted, box-shaped, dilapidated, desolate looking school should pass away with the log shanty and the old frame dwelling house we have outgrown. The houses of to-day indicate prosperity, comfort, and growing good taste. So should the school. We should build schools in keeping with our new homes, or, better still, with those we expect to have ten years hence. Moreover, we should have the best school-houses we can afford, and we can afford to have them a little better than the average home of the section. The new house, or barn, or stable, or pig-pen is not built on the same plan as the one of forty years ago. The farmer has seen something better than the old one, and so he builds, not according to the past, but for the future, and if possible he makes some improvement on what he has seen. So, too, the school-house should not be patterned after the old one, not even after the best one in the township, but after the best one that can be found in the Province. And there are other and greater considerations.Architecture is the highest of the Industrial Arts, and the most useful of the Fine Arts. Its function is to please the eye as well as to satisfy the requirements of convenience and stability. The most perfect building, accordingly, is that which combines convenience, stability, and beauty. Of the public buildings in a community, the school building is the most important. If we are to cultivate the taste of the pupils and of the rest of the community, both it and its surroundings must be an example of taste, simplicity, and dignity in form and design. But, in the matter of school architecture, trustees are handicapped. They do not themselves know from experience what the good points are, nearly so well as they know the good points of the farm and other buildings they use every day. To provide them with the help they need, this book has been prepared by the Department of Education. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

Plans and Suggestions for New Mexico Rural School Buildings (Classic Reprint) by New Mexico Department Of Education Pdf
Excerpt from Plans and Suggestions for New Mexico Rural School Buildings There IS little that needs to be said by way of introduction to these plans and suggestions for New Mexico Public School Buildings. One of the most valuable publications ever sent out from the Department of Education was one similar to this one issued by the Territorial Department of Education under the direction of the Territorial Superintendent, Mr. James E. Clark, in 1909. During my administration from time to time, many ealls have been made for these designs and suggestions by school officials and architects, and we have been able to accommodate many. That supply is now exhausted and to meet the continu ally increasing demand for plans and suggestions of sanitary; convenient, and artistic school buildings this publication is sent out from the Department of Education with confidence that it Will result in better school buildings in our state. In the preparation of this book, we have consulted not only similar publications from the educational departments of the various states in the Union, but we have conferred with close observing practical school men and architects in order that this book may be of real service. Much of the subject matter has been prepared under the direction of Teachers' College, Columbia University, in the Department of Rural School Administration, and we have embodied the rules governing the sanitation of pub lic buildings as promulgated by the State Board of Health in New Mexico. I am indebted to many sources for the suggestions, the material in plans and suggestions and the drawings and designs in this book, but more especially to the members of the Department of Education, who realizing the demand for this book have given their best efforts.

Rebuilding the Rural Southern Community by Mary S. Hoffschwelle Pdf
In this book, Mary Hoffschwelle shines a much-needed light on the efforts of rural reformers. She focuses on Tennessee because its varied geography and the large number of rural reform programs it hosted make it a particularly rich subject for study. Also, the state typified the burdens of poverty and racial division that characterized the South as a whole, and, as the author shows, such problems attracted considerable attention from reformers.
