says another. "Why doesn't Rock

The answer is, dear friends, that
most of our correspondents live on
farms and help has been very short
this summer both in field and home.
In consequence some of our CORES
pondents while they meant the best

WHAT A COMMUNITY CAN Do

Until a few years ago our school was
a one-room structure. Today the
building is a neat three-room structure
in a grove of trees, and it is kept beau
tiful by repainting as often as is lee
sssary. The conditions of school and
churches are a pretty good in index to
the character Of the neighborhood
jewellers.
We are just farmer people with linn
tied When consolidation seem
ed to be an epidemic it was up to us
to improve our school, send our chill
dren to town or allow them to go un-
educated. We chose the former and
have never mad cause to regret it. We
borrowed money to build a two-room
building secured good teachers and in
q short time many people settled in
our neighbOrhOOd to be near the school
and a third was soon a neces-
sity. The borrowed money was paid
by shortening the term Of school for
one year, but since then all improve
ments have been added by special tax
ton and the term heightened two
months beyond the free term in the
same way.
.OuT SCHOOL fixtures are up-CO-u6CSs
Each room has a library well filed
with suitable books, suitable for the
grades taught. But we are not salts
fed. We have already voted an addi-
tionaI ten-mill tax to erect a new four
room building and have bought six
acres of land for school purposes. The
plan is to have room for agricultural
eXperimets.
Each patron is assessed an incident
al fee to the amount of $3.50 each term,
which he is at liberty to pay cash or
with wood for the heaters. This mon
ey is used to buy wood and to keep the
building in repair.
On special occasions the school
house is used for the entertainment of
the young people, always gladly chap
erOned by several married ladies, and
really there is no better place for an
entertainment.
h fact that land in our neighbor-
hood has doubled in value and but lit
tie is on the market is enough to
arouse an interest in the upbuilding Of
schools. Of course not every patron
of III favored the additional taxes,
but always a large majority.
Last year a rigid compulsory school
law was passed in our state which
greatly increased school attendance,
and we believe will, by the time our
new building is erected, give us a high
school in this rural neighborhood,
three miles from any town.-Mrs. L. E.
Armour in Southern Agriculturist.

SOLICITOR SCHENCK WILL
OFFER FOR REELECTION

The newspapers are breaking the

are already letting their friends know
that they are offering themselves for
office. Voters of the 18th judicial dis
trict have been wondering if Solicitor
Michael Schenck will again offer him
self for reelection.

was a candidate before the primary In

Office, which he has filed until this
time. His term OF ONCE will not ex-
pire until the last of the present year
The primary will take place in June
When asked by a Hustler representa-
tive If he would offer himself for nomI-
nation Mr. Schenck said that he haF
decided TO be a candidate. Since n
or more prospective candidates have

FLEEING; RIGHTEOUS WRATH

The Insurance Commissioner Of
North Carolina has already received
notice of the purpose to change the
name of the following insurance com
panies: The Germania Life Insurance
Company would change it's name to
the Guardian Life Insurance Company
The Germania Fire Insurance Com
pany would change to the National
Liberty Insurance Company. TIL
German American Insurance ComDanz
to the Great American Insurance Com
pany. The German Alliance Insur-
ance Company to the American ALI
ance Company.
If those companies are owned and
controlled by loyal Americans, they
should be allowed to make these
changes at once, in order that they
NAV flee from the righteous wrath of
outraged public. But if they r in
any sense owned or controlled by hos
tile German interests or disloyal
American citizens, the request should
be denied and they should be forced.
to sail under their true colors.
And oh, the pity of it all! We had
learned to admire the German indus
try and enterprise to the point that
the very name. became ar asset in our
business world. But what peace had
won the sword has destroyed. and
what was proudly worn as a badge of
honor is now Stunned as a mark Of
|shame.-State Journal.
