Glover, September 20.-The public
school at this place was opened for
the fall session on Monday, September
2, with the largest attendance In its
history, and aside from the fact that
there Is a serious lack of accommOda-
tions in the school building for all the
pupils who are attending, the work
of the school has been entirely salts
factory to all parties concerned so far.
Mr.. S. w. Taylor OF Greenville, Is the
principal and he is proving his fitness
for the position by the good work he
is accomplishing. He is being assisted
by Misses Ida Ormand, Bessie Adams
and Emma Clinton. Miss Clinton has
been employed within the past few
days and will commence work as soon
as satisfactory arrangements can be
made for teaching quarters. The
present board of trustees Is composed
of w. E. Adams, w. B. Stroup, M. L.
Smith, Jas. E. Beamguard and Geo.
w. Knox, all of whom are thoroughly
capable, practical business men who
will be satisfied with nothing less than
the very best results possible under
the handicaps with which they have
to contend in the matter Of lack Of
sufficient room, etc. The enrolment
at present exceeds 100.
The Glover ginnery Is now running
full time and for the past few days
has had all the patronage 1t could
take care of. Up to noon today about
$50 bales had been ginned. The bulk
of this cotton Is being sold as rapidly
as ginned. The maximum price TO-
day is 11.50.
There was an important transfer OF
real estate here on Tuesday, Of this
week when Mrs. Mccoy Fitchett sold
