To County and City Sup'ts:
Many inquiries have been re-
ceived at this office regarding a
strict construction of the Com
pulsorv School Law with refer
ence to the school age. In order
that we might have definite in
formation on this point, ad-
dressed u letter to the Attorney
General of the State asking his
opinion upon Section 1, Chapter
9 OF the Acts of 1918. I give you
below his statement of my in
ouiry and his reply thereto:
you say Suppose child is
8 years old on January l, 1908.
He will therefore become IA
years old January l, 1914 Does
the law mean that he can be
compelled to go to school after
January /, 1914? Some lawyers
take the position that he cannot
be compelled to go to school dur
ing his fourteenth year, or after
he is 10 years of age. l would
like to have a ruling from you

Some people prefer a blind

Subscription Schools.

The demoralzed and devastat-
ed condition of the country was
so great that neither the state
nor the county did anything to-
ward the starting of free public
schools for. considerable time
after the close of the war be-
tween the states.
The people of Benton and
vicinity were so much in earnest
about making up lost time in
the education of their children
that under the leadership of
their teacher, John G. William.

started January 26, 1868 and
lasted without any summer in
termissiou until just before
Christmas, the following Decem-
ber, making 46 weeks in direct
succession, or 12 school months
in the year 1865.
The school was largely at
tended, having an enrolment OF
considerably over a hundred.
John G.. Williamson was born
April 4, 1888. He entered Ben
ton academy under Milburn and
while a student kept a diary
which his son w. II Williamson
now has. 1t is a most interest
ing account of events in his
student life. In 1853 he was
the Benton correspondent of q
newspaper published at Duck
town called the Touchdown
Eagsen Y A copy ot that paper
today would no doubt be worth
several times its subscription
price.
Extracts or facts taken from
his diary from 1858 to 1860 will
show his activities and prepar
alton for his occupation of teach
ing and profession of law.
On October 8, 1858 he attend
ed the funeral of james Smith,
circuit court clerk, and that
night wrote for the Ducktown
Eagle.

thought he knew of it but the proof was not absolute. Is there any
about what the Jackson bank would do with the application
of such a man for employment? Then if a banker would not en-
such a man, should the people be less ca. eful about putting
a man in Officer Is not the action of the banker a safe guide for
the people?

qualify Rim for Office and the failure to convict a guilty man leaves
him no less morally guilty; if the reverse is true, then Dulaney
should be honored with a nigh official trust.
The mills of God grind slowly,
But they grind exceeding small;
Tho with patience He stands waiting,
With exactness grind they all"

COME HOME, SISsON, COME HOME.'

The Macedonian cry goes up from Mr.. SSson's frightened sup
porters all over the district, Come home. Sisson, come home
Morrison is ringing the bell all along down the line. He is telling
the voters about our congressman's vote on various propositions
none of which surprises us more than Mr.. Morrisons declaration,
which he asserts is from the Congressional Record, that Mr.. Sisson
voted to appropriate money out of the federal treasury to support a
school maintained by the Catholic church. The vote, Mr.. Morrl-
son states, was on a proposition to recommt the bill with the view
of striking out the appropriation and Sisson voted against the re-
committing. 1t was a well fixed faith of our fathers that the church
and the state should be separated and so firmly fixed was this idea IN
their minds that it was written into the federal constitution. Re-
CARELESS of what church controls the school,, not a dollar OF the
money in the L. S. treasury should be given to its support and
maintenance.
Mr.. Morrison is speaking from two to three times every day
and there can be no doub. that what he says has the fire of faith and
enthusiasm about it. He is one of the best posted men in the
country and is prepared for the intelligent handling of any matter.
He is being greeted by good crowds and if there is not something
done to stem the tide, he will be elected by a handsome majority.
