Some time ago the county suurriu-
trndrnt Of education gave notice ,ha,
the time for entering the contest for
the prizes offered by the rural school
Improvement association of South
t'rolina would close on the 10th of
This month.
Only two schools have entered the
contest and they are both in the low
"r section Of the county.
Excelsior, taught by Miss Sudie
Mae Roulwarr; and Mt. PILGRIM
taught by Miss Mamie Counts.
II was hoped more schools would
enter the contest because even if thc
prlZc was not won the school would
be better for the effort made.
The association by the last lcgisla.
turc was given a small appropriation
Tor this purpose. The idea was tc
enr"'r.'gc IN effort to improve
the appearance of the country
school and to arouse more
interest in these schools by the teach
or and pupils and by the parents anC
