RAH FOR THE SPELLERS
Nine spelling champions from the
schools of eight states journeyed to
Washington before the president
went on his vacation, to compete for
final honors and receive special no
tice from the head of the nation. They
were the final winners after a spell
ing contest in which 2,000,000 school
children competed.
It ought to give considerable satis
faction to the advocates of the Little
Red Sehoolhouse and the Three Rs
type of education, to learn that 2,
000,000 school children have been
contesting for these honors. The com
mon idea has been that the
schools did not pay proper
to spelling, and there have been
plaints that school and college
uates can’t spell.
The probabilities are that the av¬
erage child can spell just as well as
ever, but the critics were no doubt
first class spellers who used to stand
carnival which is scheduled for July
1£*, 17 and 18th. It is expected that
hundreds of the Georgians attending
the State conference will remain over
for the carnival.
