V Because of good private schools in Madisonville, the City High School was not organized until 1903. Thirty pupils were able to qualify as charter members. The school soon became popular and the present building was erected in 1909. This year the building has accommodated 254 pupils. M. H. S. is still not the largest high school, but what we have we recommend. You will find no fads here and the standard of scholarship is not at all ordi- nary. A very democratic spirit pervades the school and real worth is always fostered. The school has won more oratoricals than any school in Western Kentucky and the graduates enter Cornell and the University of Michigan without an entrance examination. The Board of Education is devoting its time and talents without pay to the cause of education. A well trained .and experienced corps of teachers is putting forth every effort in behalf of the children. The schools are your in- stitutions and you should support them— 1st.—By never finding fault with a teacher in the presence of children. T i -.gs which happen at school are often magnified. Investigate and see the teachers. 2nd.—Send your children EVERY DAY and see that THEY ARE THERE ON TIME. Tardiness and irregular attendance constitute a certain hind- rance. 3rd.—Visit the schools and always have a good word to say for them. People who know little about public schools are always ready to criticize. Remember the many graduates who have gone from the schools to success and places of usefulness. Remember to speak a good word for the now High School. Page Three.
