Old country schoolhouses fade as consolidations rise
James Tighe of Altoona Pa says the old country school houses are being deserted for consolidated schools up the road. He notes newer graded buildings offer high school courses, single teachers for multiple classes, and cheaper tax costs though longer child commutes. Farmers save on taxes but children ride to school, remaining at local schools longer. he believes farmers with poorer schools produced great men who will fare better under new conditions. A humorous voyage tale follows about a traveler and a minister in a foghorn filled cabin near a lighthouse, sharing a comic miscommunication about noises at night.
