Fifteen hundred and twenty school
children enrolled on the opening day

term Of last year 1880 were enrolled,
and Prof. Ratliff states that he will
have 1000 pupils enrolled by the end
of this month. The important of
children attending school from the
first day should be considered by all
parents. Children starting a few
weeks late are certain to miss some
of the important work, and no child
likes to be behind the classmates.

Rollins reached to shelf over Mitch
ell's head, seized a gun and fired
point blank at the officer, the bullet
causing a slight flesh wound.
The negro leaped through the door
and took to the woods that surround
the quarters, Mitchell firing at him
as long as he could be distinguished
in the gathering darkness. Two
shots took effect, as later investlga-
ton showed, one striking Rollins IN
the left arm and the other in the
hand.

essarily slow owing to the fact that
Cant, the owner Of the hounds, was
the only one who could handle the
dogs, and he was unable to make
speed because Of a recent illness that
forced him to stop frequently and
rest.
Arriving at Rio the posse were told
that a barefooted negro had boarded
the morning local, headed for Tyler
town. but had hoped off somewhere
in the swamp along the track. He
had told the men he had been in a
fight with some other negroes in one
Of the camps and wanted to get away
before they 'got" him.
A party of seven men boarded the
train that was passing through Rio
and got off near the swamp where
the would-be murderer was supposed
to be hiding.
The party entered the swamp at
the point where the negro was last
seen and after progressing a short
distance through the waist high marsh
grass, heard a rustling to the left

IDEA OF LINCOLN

"He beings to the ages; not merely
to America, nor to a period. but to
the world"
This is the terse euloey bestowed
|uponAbraham Lincoln by John Drink
water the English dsamatist, author
or the play bearing as a title the name
of the Great Emancipator. Mr.. Drink
water gives his conception OF tho
character of Lincoln. together with
how he hit upon the idea of writing
IA inlay around him. In an interview
with Eva Chappell in the February
number Of World Outlook, which came
from the press today.
ITO me he has always been one of
the finest characters in history" says
Mr.. Drinkwater ''as well as the guild
ing and compelling figure in the criti-
cal epoch of nations life. I. Car

iduals that form the mass"
Describing the vision of I'1coln rs
ne incorporated it in his play. Mr.
Drinkwater continued.
Il saw him following his vision un.
swervingiy--lonely as the gres. al
ways must be. I saw him accepting
his great mission humbly. as an In
lstrument of destiny; and, with superb
force and direction---the compelling
power Of character--impr pressing him

SLIPPED UP ON BRu|h
TAKING HIS WINTER MAI

Park, Va. Feb. It.-Last week
while hunting wild cat on Cabin
ridge six miles from White Top Gap,
Frank Baker shot and killed large
black bear not more than half mile
Of the settlement The dogs bayed the
bear in its winter quarters under a
large rock. The bear, being asleep,
as is his habit in winter. did not
waken till Mr.. Baker arrived on the
scene and shot it, Mr.. Baker said the
first shot only served to waken the
bear. as it took several more shots to
finish il.
Bruin weighed 400 pounds. and
netted over 200 pounds when dressed.
The meat was Of very good quality, as
the bear was quite fat
The skin of the animal measured
AZ inches wide by 6 feet long, and
the fur was in excellent condition. II
is understood the skin has been sold.

dollars.
IT is said that this is the bear which
lost three toes in a trap in the same
community twenty or twenty five
years ago. and as this one had three
toes missing on one foot II this is
the case, it seems remarkable how 1t
has managed to keep from being seen
for such a length of time as very
few bears have been seen in this To-
cality for the last ten or fifteen years.

SOUTH CAROLINA
OUT Of THE MUD

Two years ago the general assem-

crossing South Carolina with a chain
of hard surface and modern high
ways that will make the common
wealth the best paved of any state in
the Union.
1t may be of interest here to say
that already many OF the more pro-
gressive counties OF South Carolina
have modern highway systems: that
would amaze those who have not been
in these counties for period OF two
years. For instance, Anderson coun-
ty is now building a county system Of
The citizens OF that county, under act
of the legislature of 1918, voted read

federal government augmented this
sum by $500. 900. and modern high
ways are now nearly complete In thar

Man ager Keen states that it became necessary to sink new hole owing to the deep boring made last year being rendered useless for further drilling by the dastardy action of someone who took considerable pains to tlackade the hole by inserting an iron bar or pipe sometime during the past fall or winter.
