towards bigger units, the) closing of a village school may not seem of greal importance.


Yet to the villagers and til all who regret the constant assault on individuality [ the closing of this rural centre of learning is a sac| blow.


From the practical point ol view, of course, a school cannot be kept open for th.f benefit of only seven pupil j when there are othel schools nearby. But ail influx of new residents int i die village could well havf brought a need for th| school to remain open.


As it is. the school will closel and another blow will hav.| been struck at rural life.
