Rainy Weather
Belays Opening
Of Rural Schools
Among the other disadvantages of
“the recent excess of rainy weather
E is the delay in opening of the com-
“ mon schools of the county. In coun-
ties like Collin where King Cotton
: has so much to say about all the
- finances of the people it is necessary
- that peace be made with his royal
- highness before things go on as
. smoothly as they should, and about
: the only way to make peace with his
: nlbs al this season of the yetr Is to
have the fields stripped of the fleecy
staple that is waving and wasting in
- the sunshine and rain.
: And so far there has been no satis-
factory method of gathering in this
mass of snowy wealth without the
assistance of the children who make
their homes on the farm. And when
the children are required in the cot-
ton field they cannot at the same time
be at the community school huose
Therefore the country schools, ex-
cepting those that are independent
districts, have not yet been able to
take up their fall work, and it is up
to the weather and the cotton to say
when they shall.
T. C. Cunningham, who boarded the
past three years at the Scotty Forsyth
