THE ¥OLUME I WINTER PARK FLORIDA, APRIL 6 } 1916. NUMBER 25 COUNTY BOARD BRANTS PERMIT FOR ELECTION TO AUTHORIZE IS- SUANCE OF BONDS TO ERECT SCHOOL BUILDING "Winter Park Must Have the Best Pub- lic School in the State of Florida." -|By Mrs. -L. A. Hakes, President of the School Aid Association) Tile local school hoard on Tuesday ^vent before the county board of edu- cation with a petition for an election to authorize the issuance of bonds for 130.000, the proceeds to tie used to -erect the building' we need. The county board . took favorable action, and an election will be called. When the money is provided, the real -work of creating the school we need will he •well begun, but only begun. There are public spirited men who have already pledged financial support to the school. With these pledges as a nu- cleus, the building greeted •will be- come but the shall within which Win- ter Park can develop a school that shall be accepted as a model by .every other town in Florid;*. The School Aid Association is but one year old This is hard to realize •when account is taken of the growth. " of public sentiment In that period. And the best part of it Is that the sen- timent has crystalized into action, and Winter Park is witnessing the be- ginning of a great development along the line of public education. Mrs. George Dyer undertook the du- ties of president.of the Association at the time of its organization, in Feb- ruary, 1915. Until that time such in- terest as "was felt by Tiie community for the school was expressed by spor- adic individual effort only. Many felt the need of improvement in the school; in the building and its equip- ment, in playground space, in efficien- cy; but until the organization of the School Aid Association no concerted effort had been made to bring to tear the force of united action. . The owasion of the rormal resjgna- tion of the position of president by Mrs. Dyer was the reception tender- er! her at the school on me afternoon of March twenty-third, last. Aided by her genius and the inspiration of her personality, the people of Winter Park liave seen an idea develop., into some- thing practical and substantial. The "peopel o% Dinter P.\fK are united in the determination to have a new, san- itary, adequate building, set some- where apart from die noise of rail- road, stone works and ice plant, and "where our boys and girls shall have Toom.. for healthful exercise without trespassing on private property. More- over, this year of Mrs. Dyers leader- ship has seen-the public conscience •aroused as to what we.owe our chil- dren as to the matter mid manner of their instruction. Winter Park must 'nave the best public -cnool in the state Florida Not tue biggest. Not the handsomest, mercy. We do not care to boast of the cx-si of pu r build- ing, or of the acres irt our "campus". We do want to announce to home seek- ers inquiring, "What can Winter Park give us?'' "Winter Park can give you tor your children a complete and modem training from primary school through' high school, a train- ing equal to the best in your native state, whichever that state may be. We have a shop for our boys, so that each is trained to use his hand with liis brain. We have a cooking class for our girls, so that each can select -and prepare the food that constitutes a well-balanced meal; we have a -sew- ing class, so that each girl who fin- ishes the course here can make her- self a complete outfit. Physical edu- cation is not neglected. Our teachers have been trained for the profession they follow. We are proud of our public school." "Do our children need a complete high school?" someone asks. -Eve_ry child needs all the education he can assimilate^ No one need fear that money will be wasted equipping a high school department or paying a high school teacher for children who are incapable of mental progress com- , mensarate -Kith their opportunities. The unfit drop by ths wayside. The "bad' boy never reaches the second year of the high school course. The restraint of school irritates him, and he endures it only so long as he must; or his conduct becomes unbearable, and he is forced to withdraw. Few ""bad" hoys do sufficient work to gain promotion so far as bigfi school, any- -way. The mentally uafit can be drill- ed, and.coaxed, and propped, up to a ertain point; but certainly not so far as the completion of the highest grammar grade. No <?ne need fear that a time will come when our high school material would be hopelessly bad or hopelessly stupid. We owe to svery child in Winter i-ar& the oppor- tunity to develop every capacity, to grow to the highest possible standard, mental and physical. We owe it to him that when he has made fullest use of our public education here he shall be able to gain admission to the best college in the country. No voter of Winter Park denies the practical value of a public school building of good appearance as an as- j set to attract the homeseeker The real estate firms north and east and west, when they adveiTise "farms for sale" state first, as a matter of prime importance, " miles from an ex- cellent school." But our School Aid Association is looking for the support of the people of Winter Park to a plan that is wider in its scope, truer in its purpose, and in every way more worthy of self sacrificing effort, than ally plan merely to increase real es- tate values in our pi-euy town. The larger things we hope for would make possible for us the proud distinction of being the town in Florida whose school has a better lrorary, a better shop, a Uetter kitchen, and which in all departments does Better work, than any otLer school in the state. Our ideal is a school that produces a development complete and well round- ed. English and "riggers- but also manuel training and art. School buildings cost too much to be used only five hours a day, five days a week, for thirty weeks a year. We mean our school to be a social center for the town. We mean to have an auditorium so spacious and so well arranged that it "shall afford aT place of assemble 7 not only for the school, but 1'or the town. What place more appropriate for the discussion and debate of questions affecting pub- lic welfare ? We aim to make use of every rnod- "ern aid to education. We want a mo- tion picture machine, whose films shall "show»our Florida children how maple sugar is made in Vermont; how peasants of Serbia work and how they dress:- how ^mountains north- western Canada look:* and how the New Foundland s,ealer captures his spoils. We mean that geography, bot- any, history, literature itself, shall be wonderfully taught as no word of text book or teacher could present it. Dra- matic presentation, such as is now ! forever out of the reach of these boys and girls, can com\, to them in the ; pictures of the art of our best actors, ; presenting the worlds great players." I The words "opera and "oratorio" mean nothing to one whose idea is based on "The Mikado.'' sung by ama- teurs. A Victrola—and what may we not have? Gadskl. liomer, Schu- mann, Feink. Caruso. McCormick, all ours! The best art becomes part of the everydaj' experience of our boys and girls. ,j The next regular meeting of the School Aid Association will be held on Thursday.

A deputation in the interest of church and school matters through- out the Southland, having as their object to readjust the work though the South so that it will result in the best for the schools and churches, met in conference in Winter Park Monday afternoon at Hooker Memor- ial and Rollins College at which rep- resentatives- from Eustis, Tavares, Tangerine, Orlando and Winter Park were present. The members of the deputation, with the exception of one member who arrived the day before, reached Winter Park Monday after- noon and were met by Dr. Enlow and Dr. George Morgan Ward. The deputation consists of: Secretary Hu- bert C. Herring, of the Congregation- al National Council; Dr. Hastings H. Hart, of the Russell Sage Foundation; Dean E. C Norton, of Pomona Col- lege, Claremont, California; and Hon. Charles W. Davidson, of Boston, Mass., These genltemen are making a tour of all the Southern states, but are only holding conferences in four places in Florida, namely, Jacksonville, IDay- tona, Winter Part and Tampa.

Many matters of great interest were discussed here which will be made public later. By all means let us be fair to our large consumers of water and cur- rent, but in being fair let us not for- get to be square to all other consum- ers many of whom have no way of helping themselves. When this matter came up in the council I was practically alone in my opposition to it, but I firmly believe that ftilly 90 per cent of the tax-pay- ers in Winter Park will endorse the principles I have here set forth.

ACTING for the Board of Trade, H. A. Ward, chair-man of the Waterways Committee, is taking up thematter of improving our waterways during the, com-

ing summer. A letter is being sent out and a broadcastappeal made to any and all to help out to any extent they

'feel able or willing to help. We are publishing the let-iter, feeling that it will in this way reach a great many| more people, and thus no one will feel hurt or slightedi if they are not included in the mailing list. The commit-tee has given everyone to understand that the amountspledged will not be called for unless, or until, the suffi-cient amount is secured to carry on the work. A numberof the letters have been sent out and are meeting with

lgenerousrespons.es.j Next to the subject of good roads this is no doubt[the most important matter for the _cornmunity to boost.I This is especially true on account of Winter Park's unique| situation in regard to the various lakes and waterwaysin its surounding territory. In case this work can be ac-complished it will no doubt lead to greater things in the.near future, which may result in a continuous, navigablewaterway to the St. Johns River, leading to Jacksonvilleand all the East Coast cities down to Miami. It is not atall unlikely that federal aid may be secured in this worklater.

The letter of the Waterways Committee is as follows:"The Waterways Committee of" the Winter Park Board of| Trade are very desirous of improving our waterways dur-,i ing the coming summer. We wish to erect a permanent jconcrete dam in the outlet of Lake Maitland, iiaving suf-1

Architectural Purposes Are Varied andEffects Achieved Are Very

Striking

i Many attractive residences have(been erected ia Winter Park during[ the past year and a number of othersj are either in process of constructionor will be in the near future. In-cluded in this number are the homesof Mr. and Mrs. Harley B. Gibbs; of

E.Edwards, of which contractor Greenewas the builder; of Arthur Schultz,and of Mr, and Mrs. A. W. Mason,built by Contractor Freeman Hunter;and other attractive though less cost-ly dwellings erected by ContractorHunter and G. C. Holdorf; and severalcottages which it is understood willsoon be put up by Frank A. Purdy,C. D. Powell, and H. E. Spangler.
