A,PIcKENs COUNTY MAN COMES
HOME TO WORK.

Oolenoy, July 11.--Cf peculiar in
terest to the people Of this county
and of general interest will be the
announcement that A. B. Fortner,
Pickenscounty man, has returned
home and will work here for the
next year. For something like ten
years, during which time he has been
in college or engaged in school work,
he has been absent from his native
county. He has accepted the prin-
cipalship of the Oolenoy High school.
The ability of this school to secure
the service of this man is regarded
by those who are in position to know
his true worth as worker, as a
builder and as an educator, as a lit
tie less than wonder 1t was due
only to rare coincidence and to the
prompt and determined action of the
board of trustees.
"Truth is STRANGER than felton,"
Professor Fortner is definite, con-
crete example of the so-callcd self
made, the self-educated and the self
reliant man. Having been born and
reared in the PleasantGrove section
of the county, his means and early
educational advantages were natur-
ally meager. But he possess ed that
dauntless courage and enthusiasm
for better training, higher sphere
of usefulness. Thus his obstacles
only served as stepping stones. He
was among the first students Of Fur
man Fitting School. On finishing
that course he entered the Univer-
sity. His extraordinary ability as a
student enabled him to graduate here
three years later, obtaining an A. b.
degree. Later, by the aid of teach
ing and valuable scholarships he was
awarded an A. NJ. degree by the Uni
vcrsity of Chicago.
During 191S-19 he served as prin-
cipal of Monongah High School,
Monongah, w. Va. For the past
two years he has served on the staff
of mathematics of the Charleston
High School for boys. He was Sc
elected for another year Charles
ton boasts Of one of the largest high
schools in the entire South The
fact that his work has stood the t,st
at that place is sufficient recommcn.

From start to finish the audience was
held spellbound in interest. "The
best comedy ever given here" was
the sentiment. "Your entertainment

eral visitors. 1t is not definitely
announced vet, but it is very likely
that the play will be repeated either
here or to some nearby places from
which an invitation has been extend
ed.
