Publisher's Synopsis
Excerpt from A Statistical Study of Education in Alabama From 1890 to 1921
The public school system of Alabama made 74% as much progress educationally in the three-year period from 1918 to 1921 as in the previous twenty-eight year period from 1890 to 1918, as measured by the number of points gained in the Ayres' index number for state school systems. It was possible to maintain progres's in the period from 1918 to 1921, in spite of growing costs, in large measure because of the sacrifice of the teachers who were willing to accept inadequate salaries.
