Excerpt from Rural School Improvement Houses may be classed among the great conservative forces of civilization. The beginnings of organized society may be traced back to the time when men first constructed for themselves permanent places of abode. The early Christian church insured the perpetuity of its creeds and its forms of worship by embodying these in cathedrals which have endured the ravages of time, and have come down to us as monuments to the wisdom and zeal of their builders. The building of a school house is a serious business. It is a work which cannot be done today and undone tomorrow. It lasts for years and throughout the period of its existence may largely determine the educational activities of the district, and will either help or hinder the whole develoment of the community. It therefore behooves the school board about to erect a home for the children of the district to consider carefully and to build wisely. They should remember that for at least six hours of the day the school house is to be the home of the rising generation. About it will cluster the associations which will brighten or cloud the memories of coming years. The experiences connected with the school building will largely influence the attitude of the child toward education for his entire life.
