CATALOG  AND   ANNOUNCEMENTS 


ALCORN    COUNTY    AGRICULTURAL 
HIGH  SCHOOL 


Kossuth,  Mississippi 
1913-14 


TO  THE  PUBLIC  AND  PATRONS. 


We  call  particular  attention  to  the  matter  contained  in 
this  catalogue.  The  success  of  the  schools  will  depend 
largely  upon  the  good  will,  harmony  and  support  that 
exist  between  patrons  and  teachers,  and  it.  is  confidently 
believed  that  this  condition  will  only  broaden  and  deepen 
ns  both  parents  and  teachers  learn  more  clearly  how  much 
each  needs  the  intelligent  aid  and  sympathy  of  the  other  in 
shaping  the  destiny  of  the  child.  For  a  parent  to  criticise 
the  teacher  in  the  presence  of  a  child  is  to  do  the  child 
an  irreparable  injury.  You  cannot  afford  to  do  this,  if 
you  are  working  for  the  best  interest  of  your  child.  If  you 
have  grievance  or  complaints  to  make,  the  proper  thing  to 
do  would  be  to  go  to  see  the  teacher  about  them.  Many 
u  disturbance  could  be  amicably  settled  if  the  patron  would 
only  take  the  time  to  investigate  and  see  the  teacher. 

The  teachers  employed  in  this  school  are  God-fearing, 
honest,  conscientious  men  and  women,  and  will  spare  no 
effort  to  advance  your  children  as  rapidly  as  possible,  both 
mentally  and  morally.  But  their  success  must  be  based  on 
your  confidence,  your  sympathy  and  your  co-operation. 
They  do  not  ask  this  for  their  own  sakes,  but  for  that  of 
the  children. 

Parents  and  friends  are  invited  to  visit  the  schools  as 
frequently  as  possible.  Let  all  join  hands  in  building  up 
the  best  school  at  Kossuth  to  be  found  in  the  State. 


Yours  truly, 
HAL  ANDERSON,  Principal. 


HISTORY. 
The  public-minded  citizens  of  Alcorn  County,  realizing 
the  necessity  of  practical  work  in  schools  and  more  espe- 
cially the  importance  of  proper  training  along  agricultural 
and  industrial  lines,  availed  themselves  of  the  opportunities 
offered  by  the  laws  of  the  State  and  established  the  Alcorn 
County    Agricultural    High    School. 

The  first  session  of  the  school  opened  in  October,  1909. 
A  few  days  after  the  opening  of  the  school  the  old  law 
was  declared  unconstitutional.  However,  we  continued  to 
work,  running  a  free  school  open  to  ,jll  grades.  After 
the  Legislature  corrected  the  mistakes  made,  work  was 
resumed  on  our  new  building,  this  being  completed  in  time 
for  the  school  to  move  into  new  quarters  before  the  close 
of  the  first  session.  The  second  session  was  a  gwat  success 
in  every  way. 

On  February  19th,  1912,  the  school  building  was  con- 
sumed by  fire.  The  good  people  of  Kossuth  threw  open 
their  homes  to  the  hoarding  pupils  until  the  Hoard  of 
Trustees  leased  the  hotel  for  a  dormitory,  On  the  22d  of 
the  same  month  school  was  resumed  in  the  old  Kossuth 
free  school  building,  with  the  hotel  as  dormitory.  The 
remainder  of  the  session  the  school  was  good  and  the 
attendance  held  up  better  than  was  expected. 

In  May  the  Board  of  Supervisors  issued  $5,000.00  in 
bonds  and  the  Board  of  Trustees,  under  an  act  of  the  last 
Legislature,  borrowed  $5,000.00  ami  it  is  hoped  that  by 
September  two  new  buildings,  by  far  suprnssing  the  old 
one,  will  have  been  constructed. 

Because  of  delay  on  the  part  of  the  contractors,  we  did 
not  move  to  our  new  buildings  until  the  middle  of  Decem- 
ber, 1912.  The  school  opened  after  Christmas  with  renewed 
vim  and  determination,  and  things  moved  on  well  until 
the  close,  May  27th,  the  attendance  holding  out  better  than 
in  the  past,  and  our  splendid  graduating  class  setting  a 
precedent  high  in  grade  attainments  and  moral  behavior. 
The  climax  came  in  the  speech  of  Hon.  J.  W.  Powers  and 
all  ended  well.

LOCATION. 

Kossuth  is  very  near  the  geographical  center  of  Alcorn 
County,  nine  miles  from  Corinth,  the  intersecting  point  of 
the  Illinois  Central,  Southern  and  M.  &  0.  Railroads.. 

Kossuth  is  a  healthful  little  town  and  has  a  citizenship 
that  is  enthusiastic  over  the  prospects  of  our  school.  They 
are  careful  to  see  that  the  town  is  free  from  those  contami- 
nating and  demoralizing  influences  so  often  found  in  our 
towns. 

The  school  grounds  are  located  on  the  highest  point  iu 
Kossuth.  "We  are  supplied  with  an  abundance  of  pure  well 
water,  pumped  from  a  well  200  feet  deep,  this  well  having 
been  bored  through  about  100  feet  of  impervious  strata 
assures  us  of  good  pure  water  for  all  time  to  come. 

The  general  lay  of  the  land  slopes  in  all  directions  from 
the  building,  thus  giving  us  absolute  drainage.  In  fact,  had 
the  School  Commissioners  searched  the  whole  country  over 
it  would  have  been  hard  to  have  found  a  more  suitable 
location. 

DISCIPLINE. 

We  believe  in  training  a  child  in  the  way  we  would 
like  to  see  him  go,  and  that  we  cannot  start  too  soon.  It  is 
ruinous  to  a  child  in  the  undeveloped  state  to  leave  him 
without  a  guiding  and  restraining  hand  in  his  daily  conduct. 
In  order  that  the  teachers  may  be  responsible  to  parents  for 
the  discharge  of  duty,  they  must  have  absolute  control  of 
the  pupils  from  the  time  they  enter  the  school  until  they 
stop.  Parents  are  requested  to  aid  the  teachers  in  the  dis- 
cipline of  their  children,  and  if  they  are  not  willing  for 
their  children  to  be  controlled,  they  are  kindly  requested  to 
send  them  to  another  school.  Our  discipline  shall  be  firm, 
but  not  harsh.  All  rules  must  be  obeyed.  In  order  to 
learn  to  govern  and  control,  one  must  first  learn  to  be 
governed  and  controlled ;  to  command  respect,  one  must 
also  respect  others.  The  generals  who  have  made  the  best 
officers  were  once  boys  who  willingly  submitted   to  being 

6 


disciplined.  Hence,  the  true  object  of  discipline  is  nut 
merely  to  secure  obedience  and  courteous  deportment.  but 
to  develop  in  the  child  power  to  govern  himself.  By  put- 
tin"  upon  the  child  every  responsibility  lie  can  bear,  self- 
relinnce,  self-respect,  and  self-control  wi;l  be  encouraged 
and  developed.  The  grown  pupils  will  be  treated  as  ladies 
and  gentlemen  until  they  have  proved  themselves  other- 
wise. Children  will  be  corrected  when  necessary.  The 
relation  between  pupil  and  teacher,  as  far  as  possible,  Will 
he  one  of  mutual   confidence  and    respect. 


GENERAL  ANNOUNCEMENTS  AND  PLANS. 

BOARDING    DEPARTMENT. 

The  Agricultural  High  School  Building  will  be  able  to 
care  for  seventy-five  to  eighty-five  boarders.  All  hoarders 
entering  this  department  will  be  expected  to  comply  with 
all   requirements  of  the  department. 

AH  pupils  in  the  boarding  department  will  be  expected 
to  do  at  least  one  hour's  work  each  day.  The  girls  will  be 
expected  to  attend  to  the  cooking,  the  dining  room  work, 
cleaning  up  their  own  rooms,  etc.  This  work  will  be  so 
arranged  that  each  girl  will  have  only  the  required  amount 
to  do  each  day.  It  is  not  our  intention  to  force  any  work 
on  any  girl  that  she  is  not  capable  of  standing,  but  merely 
to  make  the  total  expense  as  small  as  possible. 

The  boys  will  be  required  to  do  the  work  about  the 
place  that  is  ordinarily  expected  of  boys  at  home  on  the 
farm.  They  will  be  required  to  get  the  water,  wood,  etc., 
to  look  after  the  stock,  lot,  garden,  field,  help  in  building 
up  the  place  in  general.  They  will  also  be  required  to  keep 
their  own  rooms  clean  and   in   perfect  order. 

In  addition  to  the  regular  work  each  day  in  the  school 
"week,  the  boys  will  be  given  an  opportunity  to  work  every 
Saturday  morning  on  the  place,  for  which  they  will  receive 
compensation,  this  compensation  to  go  first  to  paying  for 
their  laundry,   which   will   be  done  by  hired   help,   and   in 


<a«e  tfiere  is  any  bafnnct?  it  will  6c  applied  to  the  Board 

In  case  there  are  boys  and  girls  who  wish  to  work  their 
way  through,  there  will  be  provisions  made  for  same.  Any 
wishing  to  avail  themselves  of  tins"  opportunity  should,  see- 
the Principal  at'  once. 

We  propose  to  put  a:  f7  ret -class"  education  within  the: 
reach  erf  a  If.     It  will  be' your  own  fault  in  case  you  fail.

REQUIREMENTS    OF    BOARDING    PUPILS. 

All  pupils  in  the  boarding  department  will  be  required 
fo  be  in  their  rooms  each  night  at  7:00  and  study  till  9:00, 
and  will  be  required  to  retire  at  10:00.  During  this  time 
one  of  the  teachers  will  visit  the  department  and  require 


each  pupil  to  spend  two  hours  in  actual  preparation  of 
the  work  for  the  next  day.  This  applies  to  five  nights  in 
the  week. 

No  pupils  will  be  allowed  to  visit  in  town  except  at  the 
discretion  of  the  Principal  in  charge. 

No  hoarders  will  he  allowed  to  leave  the  building  at

Boarders  will  not  be  allowed  to  receive  visitors  in  t heir 
rooms. 

No  girls  will  be  allowed  to  receive  boys  as  company 
during  the  session. 

The  boys  will  not  be  allowed  to  loaf  around  the  stores 
or  town.  We  have  a  school  ground  of  twenty-six  acres, 
sufficient  to  allow  any  boy  all  the  exercise  necessary  to 
develop  him  physically.  We  feel  sure  that  he  will  gain 
nothing  mentally  or  morally  by  such  loafing. 

.All  boarders  will  be  required  to  furnish  the  following 
nrticlees:  6  towels,  2  sheets,  2  pillow  cases,  2  quilts  or 
blankets,  4  table  napkins,  comb  and  brush,  toilet  soap,  I 
pillow,  1  chair,  1  bucket,  1  mirror,  1  drinking  cup.  Any 
pupil  failing  to  bring  the  above  will  be  required  to  get  same 
at  once  or  the  articles  will  be  bought,  and  charged  to  their 
accounts. 

All  boarders  will  be  required  to  attend  Sunday  School 
and  preaching  each  Sunday.  We  have  Sunday  School  at 
three  churches:   Baptist,  Methodist  and   Presbyterian. 


GENERAL    EXPENSES. 

COST  OF  BOARD. 

Board  will  be  furnished  at  actual  cost.  A  deposit  of 
$10.00  will  be  required  of  each  pupil  entering  the  boarding 
department  to  pay  for  the  first  month.  At  the  end  of  each 
month  a  bill  will  be  given  each  pupil,  showing  the  actual 
cost  for  that  month.  Within  rive  days  the  pupil  will  be 
required  to  deposit  with  the  manager  of  the  boarding  de- 
partment the   amount  called    for  on   the   board   bill.      This 


will  allow  tiie  manager  to  keep  all  board  paid  in  advance 
and  no  pupil  will  have  to  suffer  for  bad  collections.  Any 
pupil  failing  to  make  the*  required  deposit  within  the 
required  time  will  be  dismissed  from  the  school  till  such 
deposit  is  made.  Any  balance  due  such  pupil  will  be  repaid 
at  the  end  of  hist  month  when  the  cost  for  board  shall  have 
been  prorated.

All  pupils  will  be  required  to  pay  an  incidental  fee  of

will  be  entered  upon  the  register  of  the  sch.:ol  till  this  fee 
is  paid.  We  ask  all  patrons  to  attend  to  this,  so  as  to  avoid 
unnecessary  trouble.  Any  balance  on  hand  at  the  end  of 
'the  session  will  be  used  to  improve  the  interior  of  the 
j  k  'recitation  room. 

TtEQTJTREMENTS    FOU     AIO,    PUPILS. 

No  student  will  be  admitted  to  this  school  without  satis- 
factory evidence  of  a  good  moral  character. 

Pupils  will  be   required  to  observe  all  rules  and   regula- 
tions of  the  school. 
!  No  cigarette  smoking  will  he   allowed   upon    the  school 

premises.  We  have  little  hopes  for  the  boy  who  has  bis 
brain  filled  with  nicotine.  In  case  your  boy  smokes  cigar- 
ettes and  has  your  consent  to  do  this,  it  would  be  beter  to 
keep  him  at  home. 

No  profane  language  will  he  allowed  by  or  between 
pupils. 

Any  pupil  having  contagious  disease  will  be  required 
to  remain  away  from  school,  at  the  discretion  of  the  faculty. 

No  pupil  will  be  allcrwgd  to  deface  or  mutilate  the  build- 
ings or  grounds.  AnyTJppil  doing  this  will  be  required  to 
compensate  Epr  same  or  else  replace  the  damaged  part. 

Any  pupil  bringing  books,  papers  or  other  reading  mat- 
ter to  the  school  other  than  text-books,  will  do  same  at  his 
own  risk.  The  teachers  will  be  expected  to  take  up  such 
reading  matter  and  destroy  same  at  their  discretion. 

Separate  playgrounds  have  been  provided  for  the  boys 
and  girls,  and  under  no  conditions  will  either  be  allowed 
to  infringe  upon  the  grounds  of  the  other. 

Association  between  the  boys  and  girls  is  strictly  pro- 
hibited, except  as  they  may  be  thrown  together  during 
recitations. 

Continual   or   malicious   violation   of   any    of    the    rules, 

11 


Indoleace,  profanity,  obstinancy,  or  any  ungentlemanly  or 
nnlady-like  conduct,  shall  subject  the  offender  to  suspension 
or  expulsion. 

SPECIAL  REQUIREMENTS  OF  RESIDENT  PUPILS  AND  PUPILS 
BOARDING     IN     PRIVATE     HOMES. 

4-11   pupils  shall   be   required   to  come  direct  from  home 
to  school  and  return  direct  home  from  school.     Each  pupil 


MISS     MAE     BELLE     WILLIAMS 
MUSIC  DIPAaTMlNT 


is  under  the  control  of  the  faculty  from  the  time  he  leaves 
home  till  he  returns  home.  To  this  end  we  appeal  to  the 
patrons  to  assist  us  in  carrying  out  this  provision. 

Pupils  will  be  held  strictly  acountable  to  the  faculty  for 
any  misconduct  while  going  to  or  from  school. 


12 


!>' 


All  pupils  shiill  be  expected  to  be  present  at  the  chapel 
exercises  each  morning. 

We  make  this  an  earnest  appeal  tn  the  parents  to  stop 
all  Friday  night  frolics  and  let.  the  children  spend  the 
session  in  careful  study.  You  cannot  expect  us  to  accom- 
plish anything  if  you  allow  your  boys  and  girls  to  go  out 
to  frolics,  parties,  etc.,  during  the  session.  In  case  you 
expect  your  girl  to  succeed,  then  stop  her  from  receiving 
company  during  the  session. 

Again,  we  ask  for  the  co-operation  and  help  of  the 
patrons  in  making  this  school  a  success. 


During  the  past  session  we  have  added  more  than  100 
volumes  of  standard  literature,  an  Encyclopedia,  a  Dic- 
tionary and  two  nice  book  cases  to  our  Library.  We  hope, 
with  the  aid  of  concerts,  suppers  and  the  regular  fee  of 
50  cents  required  of  each  pupil,  to  do  even  more  the  com- 
ing session. 

We  realize  the  absolute  necessity  of  an  abundance  of 
reference  books,  and  our-aim  is  to  give  our  pupils  the  very 
best,  of  everything. 


At  the  end  of  each  month  the  teachers  shall  make  out 
regular  reports,  showing  the  attendance,  deportment,  and 
general  progress  of  each  pupil  in  each  recitation.  These 
reports  shall  be  signed  by  the  parent  or  guardian  and 
returned  to  the  teacher.  Each  teacher  shall  be  expected  to 
make  a  copy  of  the  report  on  the  general  report  register 
prepared  for  this  purpose.  This  register  shall  become  a 
part  of  the  history  of  the  school. 

ATTENDANCE. 

Realizing  the  importance  of  punctual  attendance',  we 
request  the  patrons  of  the  school  to  assist  us  in  this.  It 
is  impossible  for  your  children  to  do  the  work  we  expect 
of  them  if  you  allow  them  to  remain  at  home  two  or  three 

13 


days  eacli  week.  It  not  only  throws  the  pupil  behind,  but 
puts  him  as  a  stumbling  block  in  the  path  of  progress  of 
others.  We  therefore  urge  that  you  make  any  sacriri  ■:• 
within  reason  to  keep  the  pupils  in  regularly.

ATHLETICS. 

We  believe  that  well-directed  physical  exercise  preserves 
the  health  of  the  student,  stimulates  his  mental  activity 
and  elevates  the  moral  tone  of  the  student  body.  Mischief 
is  only  misdirected  energy,  and  the  teacher  is  often  the 
cause  of  a  student's  misconduct.  The  school  that  develops 
the  mental  side  of  the  pupils  to  the  neglect  of  the  physical, 

14 


I 


is  foiling  in  its  mission  to  mankind.     Therefore,  our  school 
lins  made  ample  provisions  in  this  respect  for  both  sexes. 

'.'he  harm  lies  not  in  the  athletics,  but  in  the  abuse  of 
it  and  in  the  athletes.  We  will  encourage  the  boys  to  play 
baseball  and  basket  ball,  the  girls  to  play  tennis  and  basket 


GIRLS     BASKET     BALL     TEAM 


ball,  yet  the  Boards  have  placed  the  following  restrictions 
on  the  athletes:  All  teams  must  be  under  the  supervision 
of  the  Superintendent.  No  games  will  be  played  with  other 
teams  without  the  Superintendent  or  some  other  teacher 
present.  Match  games  will  be  limited  to  school  teams.  No 
pupii  will  be  permitted  to  play  in  a  match  game  who  does 
not  make  a  general  average  of  SO  per  cent,  on  his  or  her 
daily  recitations  and  a  monthly  average  of  S5  per  cent,  on 
deportment.

by  dignifying  .country  life  and  employments. 

Fourth — It  tends  to  break  down  castes  or  lines  of  dis- 
tinction in  society. 

Fifth— it^will  tend  to  create  a  sympathy  between  the 
poor  and  the  wealthy. 

Sixth — It  will  serve  to  keep  a  dissatisfied  class  of  boys 
and  girls  in  school  by  giving  {hem  something  that  they 
have  an  interest  in. 

Seventh — It  will  serve  to  promote  the  health  of  pupils, 
not  only  by  exercise  it  will  afford,  but  by  habits  formed.
