26 WHITE AND GOLD County Schools BY COUNTY SUPERINTENDENT HUGH J. BALDWIN During the past five years remarkable advances have been made by the schools of the County of San Diego. Discussing this subject from the standpoint of the suburban schools, the remarkable change of front in education during this period is as apparent in the interior to the close observer, as in the finely graded schools of the city. To those unable to visit the interior, one of the best demonstrations of progress can be ob- served by the teachersi institute programs. It Will be observed that the major part of the time and the emphatic portion of the program are given to the physical welfare of the children, manual training, domestic science, and to the ethical and social side of the childis life, all of which indicates the developing of the school system and the expanding of its mission, so that it reaches to the home on the one side, and to the activities of life beyond on the other hand. The teacher is also observed to be in possession of a higher class of training, culture, and adaptability for the serv1ce. It is observed that there is more sacrifice of time in the administration of school boards than ever before, and the selection of teachers is far more cautiously done than heretofore. In the examination of the schools of the interior one Will observe the wonderful strides made in the science of health on the part of the children, sanitary instruction being far beyond the thought of the possible mission of the schools a few years ago. No more do we see the common drinking cup in any of the schools of this county, and in many places individual towels are provided, either by the school boards or by the parents. The outbuildings and toilet systems in many of the interior schools are of the most improved sanitary construction, and many of the schools of to-day have water under gravitation. Windmills are being erected in a great many of the school districts, not only for the purpose of having water under pressure for drinking purposes, but also for agriculture uses, as all of the schools in the County of San Diego now have their school gardens. Within another year Windmills, Where gravity water cannot be otherwise supplied, Will be erected, and water under pressure Will be conveyed not only to the schoolhouses, but to all parts of the school grounds. Another pleasing marked feature is that the increase in salaries in the last five years is over twenty per cent. The school system of this county, by the united action of the school boards and the office of the superintendent of schools, has an absolutely free textbook system. This is one of the most popular features of the schools and meets With the hearty support of all the people. In conclusion, the marked features of advance made by the schools in the County of San Diego are: the care given the health and physical welfare of the children; the establishment of the out-door school; the touch of domestic science; the greater capacity of the teacher; the higher apprecia- tion of service by better compensation; free text-books, and an appreci- ation by the graduates of the grammar grade schools of the high school opportunities, Which has been brought about through the teachers efforts in charging our students with the great mission of the high school. THE WILD FLOWER EXHIBIT On the first of April of this year there was inaugurated what will, in all probability, become an annual exhibit of our wild flowers. The exhibition served several useful purposes, among them being the stimulation of interest among the pupils in the study of Wild fiowers, Which forms an important
