are two ways OF voting; one is by

STATE BOARD OF EDUCATION
Meets in Columbia Toddy-NeN Laws
to Help Weak Schools.

! The State board of education has
been called to meet today III Colum-
bia. At that time several matters of
Importance will be brought mp, most
| of them of interest to the entire
State. One of these is the law for
lengthening the school term as passed
by the last General Assembly. 1t
provides that any school which now
runs less than 100 davs can receive
aid from the State if the trustees or
patrons will raise one-third of the
money to pay the teachers salary.
The treasure is an experiment, which
seeks to ascertain how many rural
districts are willing to pay a small
amount for school improvement. The
$4,000 appropriated must be used
during March, April, May and June,
because the school appOrtionment for
1909 will be made early in July, and
after this apportionmept no district
can claim that its own school fluid
has been exhausted.
The high school law has been
amended in two important partlcu'
lars. Any incorporated town with
less than 400 population can now es-
tablish a high school if it can quail.
fy in the same manner as is now re-
quired of 3 rural high schol. But no
State aid will hereafter be given un-
less the high school district is levy.
ing at least a 2 mill tax for either
common or high school purposes.
The additional $4,000 given tohigh
schools will enable the board to reach
at least 20 communities now prepar'
ing to apply Cor State high school
aid. While the colleges and UNIVERSE
ties are forced to do high school
work, the educational standards
must continue to be low.
The board will be asked to renew
its appropriation of $4,000 for
prizes awarded by the Rural School
| Improvement association. Last yeai
81 schools competed for these prizes
and it is safe 10 say that no educa-
tional investment in this State ever
secured better returns. The board will
have two new members, one to sue
ceed Senator Montgomery and an
other in Superintendent Swearin'
gen, who succeeds Superintendent
Martin as ex.officio secretary of the
board. Other important matters
must be transacted, for county boards
of education are to be appointed
high school appropriations made
and teachers examinations arranged.
