Painter High School Scholarship

DIR. WV. Smith, president of Ran
dolph- Macon Woman's College, at
Lynchburg, Va, has given scholar
ship for the coming session to the
Painter High School. This scholar
ship is valued at 5000 per annum
and is to be conferred upon the girl
in the graduating class who has
shown the greatest proficiency in her
studies while student at the High
School. This decision is left to the
principal of the school.
The Randolph-Mac Woman's Col
lege is the leading woman's college
in the South and among the leading
colleges of America, as will be shown
by the rank accorded to it by the
highest authorities. The United
States Bureau of Education has fol-
". g placed it in "a" division fol-
colleges. The New York Depart
ment of Education in its report said
1.-The highest registration of any wo
mans college by this department has
been accorded Randolph-Macon.
The fact, that so many schools have
been seeking to obtain one of these
scholarships and that, so far, only
twelve other schools in the United
States have obtained one of them
shows what a great favor DIR. Smitl
has conferred upon Painter Higl
School in particular and Accoma
county in general.

Pastor Pounded.

Editor Enterprise You will please
allow me space in your paper to
thank my good people for the very
generous pounding that they have re-
Gently given us. The people l serve
as pastor are exceedingly kind and
thoughtful and all through the year
we are constantly receiving substan-
tial tokens of this fact, but their
generosity was manifested in spec
ial manner in the Christmas pounding
that they gave us. The people OF
New Church and vicinity came to the
parsonage in great numbers bringing
many things of value to the pastor
and his family two large turkeys, one
and one-half barrel of flour, beautl-
full quilt of Irish chain' pattern
dry goods, two large hams, sugar
coffee, lard and many other things
too numerous to mention.
We greatly appreciate these gifts
not only because of their intrinsic
value, but more than all because 1t Is
token of the affection and conf
dence of my good people, and We
take this opportunity to express tC
one and all our heartfelt thanks anc
profoundest gratitude, and our prayer
| is that Gods choicest blessings may
be showered upon them all, and tina
He may help me to render the very
best possible service to so noble
people.
