Beloved and Respected Comrade Leader Hoover would like to instruct your children
By What a commie fascist:
The President’s Community School in the Blue Ridge Mountains of Virginia near the Hoover camp at the headwaters of the Rapidan in Madison County will be opened next Monday.
The gathering of the mountain children for the initial session will be without formality of any kind as the formal dedication of the school will be deferred until the classes have been organized and until such time as either the President or Mrs. Hoover, or both, can be present.
Then there will be a flag-raising and other exercises in which it is proposed that the pupils shall have an important part under the direction of Miss Christine Vest, of Yosemite, Ky., the new teacher, who is a graduate of Berea College and who has had much experience in teaching mountain children in her native State.
Financed by President Hoover and a few of his friends and built by the men of the mountains under the direction of a trained constructor, the school is perched on the lee side of one of the highest of the mountains in the Blue Ridge chain in that section.
A remote mountaintop camp, built at the personal request of the President by US Marines, and topped with a school for ignorant hillbillies who were no doubt being groomed to serve in some variety of executive militia? Thank the Lord the Depression came along and knocked this guy down a peg or two.
