Greenwood Man on
Compulsory Education,
To the Editor of The News:

To the Editor of The News:
There Is an honest man who
doesn't want to be satisfied. He
wants to go to heaven because he
thinks he can't get there, but II st.
Peter should suddenly open the door
and say, walk in, I've found a seat
for you at last" this same fellow
would hang around the gate and
argue that the seat might not be
goo enough.
So now when its is clear that an
average of six more pupils in each
school in South Carolina would take
care of the 10000 children that a
compulsory attendance law would
admit that our schoors are ready for
them now, unless perhaps it be-the
man who would stop outside the
pearly gates in the rain to make sure
that the seats were just right and
there was no leak in the roof of
heaven
Those parents who love their child
rem most are the kind who woud
rather see them sit on dry goods
boxes or nail kesg, Tearing something
until benches or desks could be made
than to think of their children sitting
at the rock pile later on through
ignorance, or at best sweating for a
lifetime as the laborer of the play-
mate who got more educa lion. But
Mr.. Editor why argue when nearly
all our people are now agreeing that
we have compulsory education?
Our Southern neighbors in Tenes-
see passed state wide law last wear
and here is what State Superinten-
dent Samuel II. Thompson SAYS about
it in letter of July 10th.
Il do believe that education i'm
Tennessee has made greater progress
under the compulsory education law.
However this has been in effect only
one year. Many of our County SUPER
1ntendents have reported to this Of
flee that their average daily atten-
dance was increased during the year
about 20 per cent.
II am unable to say at this time.
about the attendance of the Negroes.
but I am inclined to think that the
increase in average daily attendance
was greater proptionately among the
whites than it was among the neg
goes
"Our people in general seem very
we'll pleased with the compulsory
repealed"

Don't "I4ay BY" Too Soon.

The agricultural extension division
of Clemson College is persistently
urging upon the farmers not to stop
cultivating their crops too soon.
There should be no fixed time for
laying by" crop, 1t depending up
on conditions. Leaving off cultivat-
ing too soon means serious injury
to the crop. Repeated demonstra-
tions have shown that it pays to con-
tfnue shallow cultivation Of cotton
until the bolls are we'll developed and
the cultivation of corn should be
continued until 1t Is in the roasting
ear stage. A lot of both cotton and
corn did not come up until late, ow-
Ing TO the dry spring and such crops
should be worked until the early
autumn months. To help these on, a
judicious use Of side applications Of
soda or top dressing will prove Of
great advantage.

market has been the largest purchas-
er of gold here, it's total demands
since January aggregate approx

Yesterday that London began pulling

of the keen competition in it's own

There have been three distinct
gold shipments this year. The first
began In January, when some $2O,-

took walks, and the friendship be

when they went fishing or hunting to

The two men were proud of their
health ana longevity. They attributed
their long life to work in the open air
and abstinence from alcohol and to-
bacco. They never gambled Both
were ardent prohibitionists and argued
hard for the cause. They voted for
James G. Blaine for president, but
since then they have been in the Prohi

The twins were descended from a
long line of prosperous farmers. The

they were born is probably the oldest
