The Walker-McEl Elmoyle school Is
doing excellent work under the wise
and efficient direction OF j. M. Hun
ter, with the assistance of Misses
Haddon, Rankin, and Clark. The pu-
pills are in the main, progressing sat
isfactorily in their studies. They seem
to be interested, not only In their reg
ular scholastic work, but In all the
activities that pertain to @ weil-reg-
ulated school. All Indications point
TO one of the most successful years in
the history OF the school.
The Walker -McElmoyIe Literary
Society was organized before Christ
mas, and has had several interesting
and highly satisfactory meetings.
This society was instituted some four
years ago, and though 1t has been
once or twice in state OF relapse,
1t seems now to be manifesting as
much life and activity as could be
desired. The pupils OF the four high
est grades seem to be very enthusias-
tic over and eagerly interested in So
ciety work. Ar
The Officers of the society are as
follows: John b. Martin, president;
Lawrence Boggs, vice president; Hat
tie Kay, secretary and treasurer, and
Lena Thompson, critic. The subject
under discussion at the last meeting
Was,l Resolved, That the education in
South Carolina should be compulsory.

ter Jameson and Helen Rankin sup
ported the negative. The debate went
to the negative. daaiJl
