CULLEOKA.

CULLEOKA, Nov. 9.-An enthusiastic
meeting of the public school patrons
was held at w. II. Tunnels shop Sat
urday afternoon. DR.. NJ. b. Smiser was
elected chairman, and in few chosen
words stated the object of the meeting.
The meeting proceeded at once to bust
ness. 1t was decided to erect the house
exactly like the original building, but
to face it east instead of south, and to
move it only little further south by
west to afford the west end the proteG
ton of the dense grove behind it. The
main room or chapel of the building is
to be bit smaller, sixty by twenty
four and the two wings the same size,
20x30 each, as formerly. The next or
der of business was the election of GER
tain necessary committees. A COM
mittee of one was elected to col
lect all subscriptions and to raise
any other funds he could. This COM
mittee was later instructed to proceed
as rapidly as possible with his work
and to deposit in bank, subject to the
order of the building committee, all col
lections. A building committee, COM
posed of three men, was next elected
and authorized to buy the necessary
material. This committee was also
urged to proceed as rapidly as possible.
Very little else was said or done. The
meeting was for an important purpose
il was pure business-and that purpose
was soon accomplished. But by the in
terest displayed and the zeal with which
each man took upon himself the work
allotted to him, it was evident that
spirit of determination pervaded the
meeting. II. j. Moore, ST., stated to the
meeting that his subscription of one
hundred dollars was ready at mo-
ments notice. Others followed his
example with similar statments. Con-
sequentlv, it is evident that by the
time the building committee has com
pleted its correspondence in regard to
material the necessary funds will be on
deposit. No other business was brought
before the meeting and the chair de-
clared the meeting adjourned sine die.
