Publisher's Synopsis
Excerpt from Some Problems of Rural Life: Consolidation of Schools, Transportation of Scholars; Good Roads; Traveling Libraries
The common school course of study provides for seven grades, each covering a school year of seven or eight months. How many parents living in the country send their children to school seven months a year and how many children attend seven years? Many think it quite sufficient to send two or three months each year and are not very insistant upon that much. Unfortunately some are compelled by stress of circumstances to have the help of their children in the work upon the farm and are forced to make the school attend ance short.
