BASEBALL BRIEFS.

There is good ground for believing that John Ganzel. now successfully handling the Rochester (Eastern league) team, will be Brooklyn's 1910 manager. Ganzel has a number of former Brooklyn players in his lineup and is in close touch with President Ebbetts, to whom he has just sold Catcher Erwin.
 Pitcher John Raleigh. whom St. Louis has purchased from the Vernon (Pa- cific Coast league) club. is a 19 year old. He has been in professional baseball for only a month, but during that time he has shown remarkable pitching ability, and it is said that a substantial price was paid for his re- lease.

The Count Y Board of education
met yesterday at Marion to hold
the examination for the Citadel
scholarship. For this examina-
ton only three appeared, Messrs.
Gilchrist, Legette and Easterling
1t is not for a lack Of appreciation
of the high standard of the Citadel
and the thorough work being done
there, that so few compete for these
scholarships, which are worth
S2S0.OO a year. But there is a re-
quirement that the applicants Sc
cure a permit from the Citadel au-
thorities before they can strnd the
examination. Many boys who
would like to compete for these
scholarships over look this require
ment and consequently are debar
red from competing.

inexperienced rural teacher In a
hundred ways and her salary
would be many times repaid in the
good that would come to the
schools from her work.
l have no statirstics to prove it,
but it is safe to say that the aver
age length of the school term in
the county has been increasing
from year to year. The large in
crease in revenue for school pur-
poses indicates that our school
term has been decidedly lengthen-
ed. The average length of the schoo
term for the state is 23-4 weeks or
a little less than scholastic
months. The average length of
the term for Marion county is "a
weeks. Again drawing a COM
parison there are 18 counties of
the AZ in the state which have a
longer average term than Marion,
and counties have the same
length of term as Marion. So
from this we see that Marion
holds exactly a middle position
saving herself from reproach and
yet having small cause for con-
graduation. As the average for
the schools of the county is only
six months, and many of our
schools are running 8 or months
it follows that there must be
many schools in the county with
a school term much shorter than
six months. These things ought
not SO to be brethren. We should
not be willing TO do away with ed
ucational campaigns until all of
our schools arc running for nine
months each year.
! Now a worI about libraries.
Ten years ago there were not
more than or 4 school libraries
in the county. Since the passage
of the school library act Marion
county has established So libraries
and enlarged 80 of them. In other
words almost every school in the
county has small library. Only
one county in the state has a bet
ter record than Marion in this re-
Spect and that is Laurens with 50
libraries established. and 80 en-
larged. Before looking up this
rec ord thought I would have the
pleasure of claiming for Marion
the distinction of being the ban
ner county of the state in refer
ence to the number of libraries es-
tablished. Being disappointed
here nave tried to find some
thing III which Marion does excel
all other counties in the state and
l think | have succeeded. In the
absence of any statistics on the
subject make the claim and tee
sure that there is no one here to
dispute it. that Marion county
employs more bright winsome,
charming lady school teachers,
and that more of them get married
here during their term of service
or shortly after, than in any
other county in the state.
Most of the male teachers too
fall victims of cupid, but in ssme
rare cases they seem immune.
Fourteen years ago Marion dis
trict was the only district in the
county levying a special tax for
school purposes. Marion county
now has 26 districts lavying a
special tax of to 4 mills. Not
quite half of the school districts in
the county are levying a local tax,
yet only counties in the state
Barnwell, Orangeburge and Spar
tanburge-have more districts
levying special tax than Marion.
Orangeburg is in the lead having
IS districts which tax themselves
for school purposes. The subject
of taxation is Sacred o-ro,,nd and

In one pair of pants, he is COM
PEELED to discard them for another
pair of larger proportions. The
town schools in the county for the
past ten years have had the prob
lem of more room and a larger
teaching force confronting them
almost every year. The Latta
school, for instance ten years ago
was run by one teacher in an old
dilapididated, unceiled frame
building of one room. In the
meantime this was replaced by
neat four room frame building of
one story, then shortly a second
story was added to this, and to day
Latta has a modern brick school
house, with we'll furnished class
rooms, and a large auditorium, the
building costing possibly $4,000.
The experience of the other town
schools in the county has been
similar to if not quite the same as
that of Latta. While there is this
marked improvement in the school
buildings in the county, few if any
of our school houses are as good
in every respect as they should be
yet in almost all of them the pu-
pills can be made reasonably COM
Portable. Just here l might add
that our school house should be
the Elost costly and attractive
builoing in the community
Marion county in 1900 was ex-
pending for school purposes about
$22 900 and in 1908, S45, 900. In
eight years the revenue for school
purposes has over doubled. The
increase in revenue has been
much greater in the town schools
than in the country schools. The
town schools have nearly four
times as much revenue now as
they had eight years ago.
The efficiency of our teaching
force we think has increased in a
similar proportion to that of our
revenue.
Marion county has on the aver
age about as good teaching force
as can be found in the state.
In the past 3 years our teachers
have shown lively interest in
getting for their school rooms
better equipments-such as pat
ent desks, substantial black
boards. charts, maps, globes,
pictures etc. Ten years ago l
doubt if there was a good set of
maps in any school in the county
with the possible exception of the
Marion graded school. Within
the rast 3 years l have sold to the
teachers of this county about 80
sets of maps. with E or 8 maps to
the set, on spring rollers in neat
oak cases. and about half as many
substantial IL inch globes TO
the credit of the teachers, it may
be said that in almost every case
they raised the money independ-
ent Of the school fund with which
to purchase these necessary helps.
While there is marked improve
ment here, there are many schools
in the county that have practi-
cally no teaching helps. The
good effects of the rural school
improvement association have
been felt in our county and one or
two of the schools received prizes
offered by this association. I
wish to suggest in this connection
tho the thought is not mine, that
the county board of education
ought to have at its disposal, a
fund sufficient to employ a we'll
trained competent woman teacher
for the esiaire scholastic year.
