Mr.. Editor: In reply to- protest to
the school board I want to say that I
hope that the ladies that carried the
protest around for signatures, enjoy
ed their work, and that it gave them
lots of fun, but if they think their
action makes me feel bad, they are
very much mistaken. If every man,
woman and child in this town had
signed this paper it would not make
me feel bad. I feel like every mar
feels when he knows he has done his
duty. I have a conscience within me
that says, right or wrong, I do not
need any set of women to tell me
when I have done my duty. I know
my duty, and having done that I am
at ease. Respectfully,

S. c. CORN
President Hudson Announces That He
Has Ten Thousand Dollars in
Prizes.

Mr.. A. D. Hudson, president of the
South Carolina Corn Breeders asso-
citation has issued an announcement
of the South Atlantic Corn exposition
to be held in Columbia December So,
under the auspices of the South Caro-
lima Corn Breeders association. Prizes
are to be given to every county and
congressional district in this State.
Mr.. Hudson says: II am in position
to state that prizes, to the value of
$4,000, will be warded, and I trust
it will be sufficient to stimulate a
great deal of interest in the exposi-
ton"
This should stimulate the farmers
of this State in the matter of corn
raising. AS a matter of fact, however,
it should not be necessary to offer the
inducement of a prize to stimulate
corn growing by the farmers of this
State. The very fact that the sue
cessful farmer is the one who grows
his own corn should be stimulus suf-
fcient.
This exposition, however, is going
to be a big thing for South Carolina.
and our farmers, as well as those who
are not farmers, should take an active
interest in it.
Prizes are open to and the exposition
will be participated in by the farmers
of South Carolina, North Carolina,
Georgia and Florida. Every citizen Of
the State should lend his hearty aid
and cooperation.

LAST OPPORTUNITY.
To Contribute to Fund for Hose Wag-
on-Purely Yoluntary-NO Sub
scriptions After Thursday.

The Herald and News has not, for
the last two or three issues, said any
thing about that voluntary fund to re-
imburse the NeWberry fremen for the
purchase Of the hose wagon. AS stat
ed in the beginning no petition will
be taken around to the citizens be-
cause it is desired that the contribu-
tons should be purely voluntary.
The responses have not been as
prompt and as general as we expect
ed. The chief of the fire department
requests that the list shall close and
it is not our desire to hold it open any
longer. The total amount contributed
up to this time is $60.50. The wagon
cost the boys $4,000, and we had hop
ed that the people would promptly re-
imburse them this amount as their
services are given to the town for the
protection of the property without
compensation. Ihey nave given ell
cient service and there is ample evil
dence of that every time the alarm of
fire is given.
We will keep the list open until q
o'clock on Thursday, May 26, after
which we will not receive further con-
tributions. If there are any who have
not contributed, they may phone their
names and amount to The Herald and
News or hand it to Mr.. H. B. Wells, the
chief of the department. The list will
be published in Fridays paper. Those
who have contributed may hand the
amount subscribed to The Herald an6

the fire department.

OF Valuable Work of Mrs. W. 7. Fair.
Wonders Why Board Turned Her
Out for Stranger.

My earliest recollection Of a pri-
mary class was the first chart lesson.
How many minds just now grow re-
Prospective when primary work is
mentioned, and. many recall the pa
tient manner Of that teacher who
stood before us while our young
minds were striving to grasp the
sounds of the letters in those words
cat, rat, dog, and quack was a big
word. And we learned To write, she
often guiding u unframed fingers.
We were trained accurately and the
impressions were lasting. None in a
primary department can rise, or has
risen above her and few get to be her
equal.
We are mothers now. We have been
surprised at the: action Of the board
to leave our ~favorite out in the cleo
ton of teachers for the city schools.
This is a heavy blow to the ambitious
mothers of our town, to be compelled
to put our babies in the hands Of
strangers when these little tots are
bid goodbye at the door the first day
they are sent to enter the battlefield
of A. B. C's. We, who were her pu-
pills, realize. her value to children I'M"
der her instruction; and we know she
has been an inspiration to the public
school in all of it's management since
it's establishment in this community.
Parents want Mrs. Fair, children
need her; she is our own and why
should our children be deprived of the
best? Ex-Pupil.
