AMONG THE SCHOOLS.

kins. rural supervisor of schools for
Newberry county, might score as many
schools as possible and learn some
thing of their location, took her OF
her regular work to which I had as
signed her during the past several
months, for one day last week and
made a round of several schools. I
have not been able to get her in the
upper section of the county very much
during the past several months. So on
Wednesday of last week we decided
to make round of schools from New
berry to Chappells, and make a short
visit to those that had not closed, and
take a look at some of the buildings
and location.
Mr.. T. ]. Davenport, who is familiar
with the roads in that section, and
who desired also to visit his place,
kindly consented to act as pilot for
US.
We left Newberry about nine o'clock
and made start for the Bush River
school, taught by Miss Culbertson. I
had the personal assurance of Mr.. W.
G. Peterson, rural mail carrier, that
the road out by Helena to Mr.. E. P.
Matthews was in fine condition. And
that the road from Mr.. Hills place on
the Belfast road down to the school
house was in an almost impossible
condition. Well, we got there, but
if Mr.. Peterson calls that good road
I would regret to see one that he
would say was bad. We finally reach
ed the school, and spent short time
with the teacher and children and then
started for Belfast. We were afraid
to try Mr., Peterson's, bad road, SO
went across country back to Bush
River church and came into the Bel
fast road at Mr.. L. w. Floyd's place.
Mr.. Davenport insists that this cross
country road is a public road, but if
it is, fortunately, it seems that very
few people travel it and it is barely
wide enough for one vehicle.
We passed the Tranwood school. 1t
is located in fine section of the coup-
ty. The houses are nicely painted and
everything bears the evidence of pros
perity and there are numbers of hous-
es in sight of each other, but I am
afraid there is race suicide for we
have very small school. It is to be
hoped that conditions will improve in
the near future.
The Belfast road has recently been
worked by Mr.. Hill and is in fine
condition-better than I ever saw it.,
and have Travelled it many times.
The Belfast school is fine school
and has more children from Laurens
than from Newberry. It is taught this
year by Miss Lois Irwin. We spent
some time in this school. Miss Irwin
had the children give US some school
songs which they did remarkably we'll
She sent some of the work *of the
children over to the Laurens county
school fair. Miss Irwin is also doing
some nature study work, in addition
to the regular school work, and to
this end had some tadpoles in jar to
study how the frog developed. She
said she had some frogs but they be-
came too unrly and she had to put
them out of the school. She is very
enthusiastic and energetic teacher.
We had not intended to stop for din
ner, but Mrs. Herbert Wallace had
dinner ready ana insisted that we re-
main, and I am sure that we demon
strated to her that we appreciated
and enjoyed the dinner. really do
not know when have enjoyed a din

school, taught by Misses Harper and
Felkel. My main purpose in going to
Chappells was to meet the trustees
and get them to approve the plans
for the new building at this place.
This was done. We hope to let the
contract for this building on Friday
of this week. From Dominick's to
Chappells is what presume Mr.. Peter
son would call bad road. certain
| " would. And the road from Chap
pells back to Silverstreet is a worse
bad road. On this return we passed
the school at Old Town and had a
short interview with the teacher. The
school had just closed as we reached
it. We also passed the Silverstreet,
Dead Fall and Reagan schools, all
of which were out for the day.
Many of the roads in this section are
a disgrace to an enlightened and civil
lied people. I hate to say it, but it
is true, and l cannot see how they
manage to bear with them. I am not
blaming any one for the condition OF
the roads, but I am just stating
plain and unvarnished truth. The
country cannot make much progress
in any line until something is done to
improve the condition of the roads.
On Friday l attended a meeting Of
the patrons and children of the st.
Lukes school in No 9 township. The
purpose of this meeting was to discuss
the advisability of levying four mills
tax and establishing a rural graded
school. The school now has over a
hundred children and I do not know
a district in the State that so much
needs rural graded school, and that
has all that is necessary for one ex-
cept the voting of the tax. If the tax
is voted the State will give $500 a
wear and the county will make the
necessary additions to the building.
DR.. G. Y. Hunter, Mr.. J. A. stoddard,
of the Office of the State superinten-
dent of education and DR.. C. T. Wyche
were with me and all of us made short
speeches to the people trying to show
them the wisdom and adVisibility Of
voting tax. After the speaking a fine
picnic dinner was served and enjoyed.
This is fine section and has the op-
portunity to establish first class
school, but in order to do 80, four
mills tax must be voted. There is no
other way. 1t is up to the good peo-
pie of the community to keep pace
with the rest of the country or to lag
behind.
Miss Hawkins is spending this Week
with the Reederville school. 1t is ex-
pected to have an educational meeting
and picnic in Smiths. grove near the
school house on Saturday, May II,
when several schools will unite in the
picnic and exercises and Superinten-
dent Aull and possibly State Superin-
tendent swearingen and others will
make speeches.
