city board Tuesday when he com

ings in botl houses of the legislature,
The committee as named are II. L.
Harris, chairman; w. f. Andel son,
E. E. Erwin, John W. Jackson, E.
Yoest and J. L. Hutton With Mr..
Salmon ex officio member the com.
.mittee CONSISTS of seven, and their du-
ties are t. see that everything posi-
hle is dcre to promote the interests
of the school building. 1t is their
further duty to get plans on suita-
Bile building together with the esti-
mated cost On the same.
Following the final action O. the
Legislature on the enabling act and
the Signature of the governor an i'm
mediate campaign of information will
be inaugurated, and one of the princi-
pal features of this campaign will be
to give Authentic information regard
ing the present conditions OF the
schools of the city, particularly the
absolute necessity for some arrange
ment to take care of the crowded con-
dition of the grades.
The real purpose of the act is to
enable the city of Columbia to issue
bonds sufficient to erect a school
building together with the Central
High school, and the further possibili-
ty of the increasing of these schools
in the natural way, as well as by the
application of the compulsory school
law. It is expected that this latter
law will increase the attendance in
The city net less than thirty to forty
per cent, and the natural increase
during the next few years will be
equal 10 that percentage. Altogether
It is expected that within the next
ten years tho attendance in the city
will be at least doubled.
All these conditions must be pro-
vided for, and the best possible way
to make this provision will be up to
Mr.. Salmon and his committee.

POInCARE WILL NOT SHOOT BIRDS

President Poincare is opposed
| strongly to the killing of animals and
birds for sport, and one of his first
acts after election was to announce
himself patron of the French society
the purpose of which is to afford pro.
lection to animals. He does not, how
ever, wish to pose as an animal lover
merely in name. and he has just made
the official announcement that he will
not hold a gun in hand during his
term Of Office.
This decision of the president is an
entirely personal one. He declares he
has no intention OF interfering with
the sport of others, and that when his
duties require him to be present at a
presidential hunting party he will full
fill them.
1t is believed. however, that this
attitude of NJ Poincare will have a
considerable effect on presidential en-.

his administration Out of Difference
