soil. The purpose Of ventilation Is to
assist in controlling the temperature
and humidity Of the air within the
hotbed, and 1t should be governed by
the conditions both outside and inside
of the hotbed. A small opening will
allow much heat to escape; therefore
one sash pulled down two or three
inches from the top or lifted and a
stick placed under it will be sufficient
ventilation for three sashed hotbed
on cold days.

School Trustees Can't Hold Two Offices.

The following letter explains
itself:
Columbia, July &C. L. Craig,
Superintendent of Education. Wal
halla, S. c.: Dear Sir-Your letter
of July 9Th to the Attorney General,
asking whether person can hold the
offices of magistrate and school trus-
tee at the same time, and whether a
trustee of public school can hold
the position of rural mail carrier, has
been received.
Section 2, Article 2, of the Con-
stitution provides that every quail
fled elector shall be eligible to any
office unless disqualified as pre-.
scribed in the Constitution, and pro-
vides further, that "ro person shall
hold two offices of honor or profit at
the same time; provided, that any
person holding another Office may at
the same time be an officer in the
militia, or a notary public" You
will see from this section of the Con-
stitution that the same person can
not hold the offices of magistrate and
school trustee at the same time.
AS to your second question : There
is some doubt as to whether the
position of rural mail carrier is an
Office, and as the section of the Con-
stitution referred to above makes no
mention Of positions held under the
United States government, / think a
school trustee may be mail carrier
unless the duties of one position in
terfere with the duties of the other.
If the PERSONS duties as mail carrier
are such as to prevent his properly
and fully performing the duties OF
trustee, he should not hold both
positions. Yours truly,
M. =. DeBruhl,
Assistant Attorney General.
