Each One Teach One literacy push reaches Swisher County

Literacy work begun in 1930 in Mindanao, Philippines has spread to West Texas. Five Swisher County churches trained 38 men to teach reading and writing to newcomers to America. Mrs. Dale Barkley organized the effort with teachers from several denominations. The non-denominational program has grown quickly with additional work in Quitaque Vigo Park Hereford and Tulsa. Dr. Frank Laubach started the movement in 1930 and died this year at 84 after developing primers in 312 languages.
