Nl 1 COLORADO Fon rirrn THE OLD SCHOOL HOUSE HISTORY OF WHARTON S SCHOOLS Wharton s progress along educational lmes has been phenomenal In a comparatively short tlme we have advanced from the one room stage to that of the best and most modern school ln any town of thrs slze rn the State The metamorphosls of the schools of Wharton has ln short been complete We shall not be content to stop at thus pomt but our advancement shall contmue The early history of our schools conslsts mostly of brographxcal sketche of the teachers to whom me owe a great deal for the foundatron of our present advantages they lard In September IBSO there came to Wharton from Camden Alabama one Mrs Maggle Watts a wndow wlth four small children Upon her devolved the task of then support and to thus end she opened a pnvate scnool whlch proved mutually benehclal a there was no mstltutlon of thls kmd ln the community The success of her school was so marked that two leading cxtlzens Dr Saltman and Mr Rust came to her home and gave her a crude examlnatlon of oral questions These she answered satxsfactonly and she was accordmgly granted a teacher s certlhcate Thus the school became Whar tons 6l'St public mstrtutlon of learning The only difference that was brought about by the change was that a portion of her salary was pald by the State the pupils paymg the rest She had twenty two pupxls but the salary was so small that she had to serve as asslstant postmaster to provide for her famlly The crtlzens of Wharton she says were very kmd to her and helped her ln every way they could but the straxn was too great and the next fall she had a nervous breakdown She was forced to gave up the school and devoted all of her time to the postofhce of vshlch she became postmnstress An mslght into Mrs Watts admirable character may be gamed from the following episode that she related to me s QM X. i v . - 1.

Ssxte rn L OLOPADO She and Mrs Anderson went to New Mexico about twenty two years ago Miss Lilly then married and IS now lnmg ln California She was a progressive broad minded woman her natural ablllty wrth her good educatron and culture enarled her to accom plrsh much good for which the people of Wharton stlll remember her wlth appreclat on Teacher smce then have come and gone Among them were Captain Mac Nealv who helped the school a great deal and Mr P acock who with hrs brother runs the Peacock Mllrtary Academy Alway tlae trend of the school s progress has been upward even though at times there was little encouragement Wrth the growth of her schools can be traced the growth of Wharton First the resrdence of the teacher then the Baptlst Church sersed as public school burldmgs Soon the church became too small for the number of puprls and tlc bulldmg which IS now the ewrsh Synagogue was used as a school house There was an annex ln the rear connected with the mam bulldlng by a plank walk but this was outgrown wrth the Increase nn the num er of puplls ln l898 the bulldlng we now refer to as the old school bulldmg was bullt How proud they must have been of the new lirlck structure that vsas to supplant the old frame one' And with Wlmarton s growth the school continued to grow and that bulldmg had to lie enlarged ln I909 the annex of led brick was added to the old bulldlng fhls served untll l9I8 when It was decided that Wharton should have a new and modern hugh school Mr Hodges had worked unceasmgly to secure It as drd the trustees who went down 1 to their own pockets to keep the school go ng at all Exeryone was overjoyed to thunk that at last we should haxe such an advantage At hrst tlse taxpayers were not very en lhuslastlc but as completion was neared they too became reconclled to the Idea and Joined tl c praise of the work It wa not untll l92I that tlfe dream of the school board superrntendent and pupll alike became a happy reality and we found ourselxes ln the new bulldlng It took longer to complete lt than they had estimated as labor and matenals were hard to obtain It seemed a lernble hardshxp to some of us to have to walt so long but lt was not so bad when we thought of how they had needed It for many years before Two classes graduated from the other school who wanted the drstmctlon of bemg the hrst to hnlsh at the New Hrgh School The honor however was saved for us and It IS our wlsh tha we may not prove unworthy Another achievement for which we owe Mr Hodges a great deal of thanks lS o1.r twenty and one half unlts of afflllatlon It was due to his efforts and the co-operatlon of former students that we obtained these credits Vve hope to obtaln an addltlonal credit ln Engllsh besrdes those rn Home Economics Amerrcan HlSt0Ty and Economrcs The mspectors report was very favorable and the mdlcatrons are that we shall recene these credlts The bulldmg rtself rs mdeed a modern archltectural trrumph It rs a handsome stfuc ture to look upon and IS modern convenient and servrceable msxde There rs no space lost ln the whole bulldmg ln the basement are class rooms domestic art and sclence rooms and the cafete ra On tl'e fnst Hoor are the lrbrary the office and other class rooms The second Hoor cons sts of a large audrtonum wrth a seatmg capacity of about five hundred persons The scrence laboratory IS located here also as well as three other class rooms The grounds surroundmg the burldrng are spacious with adequate playground equip ment for all the students Swmgs and see saws are provrded for the small chrldren and tennls and basketball courts for those rn the Hugh School There IS a barn for the horses of the children from the country and a place to park automobiles It would seem that those who planned the bulldmg had remarkable foresrglst for not a detail was overlooked This bulldmg rs no temporary affalr It shall be here as long as Wharton shall stand We feel that a great accompll hment w 1s completed when the new s hool burldmg was erected and so lt was What the future may bring about though we do not know but certamly Wharton and her school will continue ln their development - w l l 5 1 1 i ni . , - - v n v a I , A .
