CALL TO COLoRED
PEOPLE TO RALLY
Asked to Raise 100000 for
Memorial Building.

The State.
The legislature of South Carolina,
at the 1919 session, made an appro-
priation of 100000 for a memorial
building to be erected on the campus
of the State college at Orangeburg
in honor of the colored soldiers,
sailors, nurses and other workers Of
the state who rendered service in
winning the great world war.
It is expected that the colored
people will raise a similar amount
100000 to cooperate with the move
ment and provide funds for equip
ping the building with the necessary
alcoves to contain books, tablets,
manuscripts and other records of the
war, its purpose and achievements.
+. The drive to raise this 100000
was begun November l, with the hope
that it would be completed by the
30th. Owing to many interruptions
and delays it has been decided to con-
tinue the work of raising the fund un-
til June, 1920. The commission is
urgently asking the colored people to
cooperate in the movement, and that
volunteers for service on the various
campaign committees be made. Each
county is expected to raise a certain
quota.
In accord with the record made by
the colored people of the state in the
many patriotic drives during the
great war, it is hoped that they will
not fail in this supreme effort to unite
with the state in the laudable under
taking to erect a memorial to its
colored soldiers and preserve to their
posterity the records of their brave
deeds.
Governor Cooper said recently:
"a state that does not remember fit
tingly those of her people who have
served her greatly and nobly, even to
the high degree of sacrificing life
itself, is not worthy of them, and to
fail to do so will mean that, in the
end, she will cease to produce men
and women worthy of being honor
ably remembered. The sons of this
commonwealth added, in the great
war for free, humane, and just living,

nent to the already glorious history

TEACHERS CAN AID
IN COTTON FIGHT
Mixson Appeals for Cooperation
of All.
The State.

N0 Stdtc.
An appeal to the school teachers
of the state to support the American
Cotton association has been made by
R. NJ. Mixson, president of the South
Carolina Cotton association, who has
addressed personal letter to every
teacher in the state.
Blame for the fact that the teach
ers of the state are underpald is
placed by Mr.. Mixson on the poor
price which cotton has brought in the
South for the last so years. With
a better price for cotton, Mr.. Mixson
says, there will be better paid teach
ers. In his letter to the teachers Mr..
Mixson says:
"You are no doubt familiar with
the objects and purposes of the
American Cotton association. If so,
you must be interested in it's success,
for your interest and advancement
is so intimately connected with its
success that it's failure means great
loss to every teacher in the South.
The teachers are not paid adequate
salaries. The majority of rural
school houses are uncomfortable and
inadequate. There is a, reason for
this. What is it? Listen, and l will
tell you.
The prosperity of the entire South
depends upon the prosperity of the
farmers, the producers of cotton.
Had cotton brought fair price for
the last so years, there would have
been billions Of dollars more invest
ed in the South. The South would
have good school houses, good roads,
good country churches, good homes,
the children would be in school in
stead of in the cotton fields, teachers
and preachers would be receiving
salaries commensurate with the i'm
portant work they are doing. Low
priced cothton, an impoverished
South, is at the bottom of the whole
matter.
"We are striving to change these
conditions. The American Cotton
association is an organization C
bankers, merchants, business and
professional men, women and far
mers organized for the development
and protection of the commercial in
terests of the South, to see that the
farmers are paid fair profit above
the cost of production for their cot
ton. We have saved the South hun
dreds of millions of dollars this sea-
son on their cotton crop, and expect
to continue the good work for all
time to come. We need your help
to complete our organization. Your
dues would be So per annum. We
need this, and more. We need you
to talk and preach the organization
of the American Cotton association.
Will you do this2
Remember that every educational
advancement in the South will be
limited in its development, every
country school and church will con-
tinue as at present-ineficient and
inadequate to the work it is trying
to do Every school teacher and
preacher will receive inadequate
salaries until cotton brings a fair
price to the producer.
won't you join our association
and help US to accomplish this great
work? You can render wonderful

Laid Money Aside.
A lad in one of the schools in this

prosperous career by plowing and by
selling vegetables. When all the
work was done he. counted up the
money he had put in bank and found
that it amounted to twenty-five dol.

began life on less than twenty-five
dollars. But they saved their money
regularly mad invested it wisely, thus
assuring success.
The teacher in one Of the ga
grades has reported that one OF her
pupils has earned no less than twenty
dollars by helping around the house,
while members Of savings society
that flourishes in a Ia grade have
made about twenty-five dollars doing
such odd jobs as feeding the chick.
ems, tying tobacco and chopping grass.
Several boys who are members OF
school saving societies which are
particularly active have bought
clothes with money earned in similar
ways. One little fellow did so well

huge to be paid all at once, and when

to save penny or a nickle at time.
The coin is deposited with the teach

When the total is large enough, 1t
