IMPORTANCE OF EDUCATION REA
LIKED.

Il am sure. however. II needs no ar
cumcnt 90 convince you that the impCr-
lance II education in its highest sense
has ever been realized by our people.
The facts that / have just cited that
before We had colleges of our own We
sent our sons abroad. and the further
fact that almost within sound OF our
voices stands South Carolina College
over loo years Old-these will show the
spirit that animated our ancestors.
"As 20 what We are doing today for
the sons and daughters of South Caro-
lima. have but to point you TO the
number OF colleges OF our State. AMI %
our growing system OF graded and
public schools. The State supports
Winthrop College for Women. and
South Carolina College. the Citadel and
Clemson for young men, and also 8
State college for negroes. In addition
TO this. each rel. giOus denomination
supports one OF more colleges which
are doing excellent work. There are
also many private colleges. several Of
which are we'll endowed. Contributing
to these Is our SYSTEM OF graded ane
common schools. Our State constitu
ton requires that the General Assem-
bly, shall provide for liberal system
of free public schools for children be
tween the ages of 6 and 20 years, ans
