Little Red
Schoolhouse
There is no mystery about the
origin of the “little red school
bouoe” to those of us that lived in
New England 50 years ago. A few
generations ego it was customary
to paint nearly all frame school-
Bouses red, not because the peo
ple in a community would especi
ally prefer that color, but because
red paint was the cheapest kind of
paint obtainable. Mo tof the red
schoolhouses have passed away
but they are still n symbol of pop
ular education in America.—Otis
