AS TO SCHOOL DISTRICT NO. =
John w. Shclor Feels that the Man
agcment is i'm Error.

Westminster, March -Editor
Keowee Courier: Please allow me the
use Of your columns to exploit the
management of the trustees of School
District No. z. Last week the pupils
below the 9th grade were dismissed
for the week and the favored few
above that grade were kept in school
at a cost of 25 to 80 cents per day
apiece for tuition. Now, can the
trustees explain, granting the lawful
absence Of the teacher, why the
smaller children were excluded from
school, and why there are no induce
ments offered to draw in tho ma ajor-
ity of the children Of the district.
who are discouraged from coming to
school
Why should the school be run in
the interest Of few who are cnthu-
siastic in providing only for the
teachers in charge, to the neglect of
the weak children, who are unable to
provide for themselves?
Respectfully, John w. Shelor.

Evidence Secured to Cause Arrest of
Parties for Syrecking No. 35.
(Greenville News. LIST. }

(Greenville News, 1st.)
1t was learned last night that there
would, in all probability, be some ar
rests made tomorrow as result of
the wreck of passenger train No. 80
at Seneca iasj MONDAY morning. AS
to the number of arrests to be made
nothing could be learned.
Special Agent James Alton spent
several days at the scene of the wreck
last week, and while there secured
some important clues. Yesterday In
spector Earle went to the place with
Mr.. Alton and some more evidence
pointing towards certain parties was
secured. This, 1t is understood, will
lead to some arrests.
1t seems that the wreck of No. 35
was caused by the wreck of freight
train. The freight train, it is thought,
was wrecked by the parties for whom
warrants will be issued.

Dear Reader: The most important
thing In buying fertilizers is - cot
guano that you know is ,c.r
moneys worth and will meet your
expectations at crop gathering time.
You ask, How am / to find this out /?
The answer is not what some fellow
tells you that has not used it, but the
man that has used that brand of
guano, and tells you that he watched
1t when the cotton first came uD. and
so on until 1t was gathered, and that
1t gave the best results.
Now you ask us, What about the
Piedmont Guano? We simply refer
you to the farmers that used it last
year. If they tell you that 1T is not
good guano and were not highly
pleased with 1t, DO NOT USE IT.
We have this to say: Do business
at home. The best values are not to
be had fartherest away, but the near
est to you. Do not break the link
hy sending your money away. We
handle everything in the Fertilizer
line. Come TO see us or our agents
