touch with the teaching force of the
county.
The social life throughout the
county has been greatly benefited
by the Improvement Associations
coupled with the Home-keepers'
Clubs, but the betterment of the
social life is only a part of what
they accomplished. The work that
the girls exhibited Field Day proves
that the clubs mean that domestic
science has been introduced in the
schools, while the improvement Of
the grounds and buildings where as
sociations have been organized shows
that they aid financially as we'll as
socially.
The interest evinced Field Day
demonstrated tine fact that Williams.

fore. Every school in the county
then in session took some part in
the exercises of the day except four.
The School Fair and school work
were splendid, but far better than
'either of these was the school spirit
exhibited by all.
We asked the Improvement Asso.
Citations to take some steps in regard
to compulsory education. One dis.
trict has petitioned for the enforce.
ment of this law and we hope that
this petition is the beginning OF
compulsory education for the whole
county.
My work in Williamsburg county
has been pleasant indeed. The hos,
pita,ity and kindness of its people
cannot be equaled, but better than
the hospitality and kindness is the
progressive spirit that is growing
and will in the course of time place
Williamsburg in the foremost ranks
in the educational march.

Observation-Disclosures
Charles Handy, a young man 20
years of age, was thrown forcibly
from his motorcycle last Thursday
near Beaufort and instantly killed.
One of the largest single captures
of liquor made in Charleston since
the sloop load was confiscated was
made Sunday, when constables dis
covered and seized Ga barrels of
whiskey containing total of 210
gallons, besides some case goods.
The liquor, it is said, was found
under house up town.

The high position in naval affairs
of the nation now occupied by two
South Carolinians is evidenced in
the naming of two officers from this
State on the "secretary's advisory
council' of the navy, appointed last
Thursday. The two members are
Rear Admiral Victor Blue of Marion,
chief of the bureau of navigation,
and Rear Admiral Samuel MCGOWAN
of Laurens, chief of the bureau of
supplies and accounts.

The jury commissioners of Char
lesion county haye been invited by
Gov Richard | Manning to appear in
Columbia to confer with him today.
1t is thought that the object of the
Governor in having the commission
ers visit him is to discuss the recent
action of the Charleston county
grand jury in refusing to indict the
proprietors of blind tigers, against
whom bills were presented at the
recent term of court of general
sessions.
The Dominion freight liner Ar
menian flying the British flag and
carrying mules from Newport News,
Va, to England, was torpedoed and
sunk Monday night by the German
submarine U-38 off Cornwall, Eng
land, and nearly score of American
muleteers are reported lost. Twen-
ty-nine men in all were lost and ten
injured. The news created sensa-
ton in official quarters, as it was the
first case of loss of American lives
since the sinking of the Lusitania.

At a luncheon given by the Rotary
club of Macon in honor of Georgia's
new Governor, Nat E Harris, inau-
gurated last Saturday, John M Sla-
ton, the retiring Governor, referred
to his action in the case of Leo M
Frank in the following words: Hon.
est people may disagree with me, an
honest man, but we realize that we
must be measured by our conscience.
Two thousand years ago another
Governor washed his hands of a case
and turned over a Jew to a mob.
For two thousand years that Gov
ernor's name has been accursed. If
today another Jew were lying in his
grave because | had failed to do my
duty | would all through life find
his blood on my hands and would
consider myself an assassin through
cowardice."

The following is a copy of the re-

the splendid work she has done to.
ward the improvement of general
conditions in the rural schools of
the county:
Kingstree, S C, July l, 1915.
Since beginning the work of Su-
pervising Teacher of Williamsburg
county in September, 1919. my best
efforts have been directed toward
the solution of the rural school
problem. Too many typical one
teacher schools existed in the coun-
ty. Consolidation has resulted in
the hope of eliminating schools of
this type. In three instances, wag-
ons have been installed.
The school term has been lengthen-
ed and special levies have been placed
in all fifty districts with the excep-
ion of eight, while the levies in a
number of others have been increas-
ed. Three of the districts have been
bonded for the purpose of erecting
up-to-date brick school buildings,
while in three others, plans are be-
ing discussed for additional rooms.
In many instances. the equipment
has been increased considerably and
a number of new libraries have
been placed in the county, while
others have been added to.
We helped locate the teachers for
the term of '14-'15 and in this way
improved the teaching force very
much, giving US able co-operators
where previous to this, cooperation
was lacking. The homemade charts,
perception, sewing, and phonic
cards for primary work that were
introduced, have bettered the teach
ing methods in the primary grades.
Reading for all grades has been
especially stressed. Suggestions have
been given and demonstrations
made in reference to every phase of
school work. A letter of welcome
was sent in September to every
teacher and trustee in the county
welcoming the teachers and contain
ing suggestions for both. A pro-
pramme for the opening day and
plans for work during the year
were recommended. Each month
Lesson Plans were mailed-plans for
diversifying the school room routine.
for bringing in Nature Study, and
for making the work pleasanter for
all concerned. In November, let
ter was sent to every teacher con-
tanning Christmas ideas and plans
for carrying out these ideas. In
January, a Suggestive Programme
for Field Day was mailed to each
school. In this programme, we
gave suggestions for the work to be
done Field Day, stressing the parts
that we saw so often omitted in the
every day routine. This programme
contained plans for Manual Train
ing, that could be used according to
GRADE in the rural school. All of
these combined with the visits in
the school rooms kept us in close

Violations of the Sunday Law

would like to enquire through
your paper whether we have any
Sunday laws in this State or not?
If so. does camping and fishing in

will you please publish the Sunday
