/ must add that 7 was really proud
of the fine school spirit which l saw
manifest at Wheeland, and to find
so many of the people of the commun-
;ty at the entertainment, and the IN
terest they were taking in their
school. 1t takes work and a lot OF
it, and it takes team work, to build
up school or a community worth
while. And by all the people work
ing together the work becomes real
pleasure. AndI was pleased also to
learn that this gathering was under
the direction of the community league
which was recently organized at this
school and that the league is meeting
regularly and doing some good work
for the school and the community.

On Friday last / went over to meet
with the trustees and citizens of the
Vaughnville school, whose school
house was recently destroyed by fire,
to see what we could do. / found
that there is a sentiment to consoli-
date with the Chappells school dis
trict, and there is also a sentiment
against it. I hope we may be able
to make some arrangement by which
we can transfer the children and
teacher of this school to the Chappells
school for the. remainder Of the ses-
sion, or to begin after the holidays.
Then people would better be able to
determine what they desire to do. The
trouble is to find the money. with
which to pay the teacher and also to
pay the transportations to the Chap
pells school, as some of the children
would be at least six miles from the
school.

Miss Woodson of The Herald and
News staff who went along with me to
Wheeland in company with her mo-
ther and Mrs. Alice Aulll Boozer has
promised to write a short story of the
entertainment, but ] desire to make
an observation or two on the trip in
that section so that / may say some-
thing of the roads. and other things
IN connection with the school and sec
ton that / feel like saying, and that
/ feel may do a little good by the
saying, and if not I trust. may do no
harm.

along the way would take just a little
more interest in the upkeep of the
roads over which they have to travel,
and would just give them little at
tention, the condition of the roads
could be greatly improved and no one
would be hurt, but on the contrary
every one would be very much bene-
fted. There is no telling the amount
we could all do in matters of this
kind by little friendly cooperation
and the exercise Of the community
spirit. Unfortunately in this day we
all look, too much to the government
to do everything for us, and do not
depend upon our own eXertlons, and
seem to overlook the fact the gov
ernment is nothing but the people
working together, and that we are
really the state. Or better still, if
when the county force gets in our
community we would all get together
and cooperate with the force and try
to help, and that would cost no one
any great amount, and certainly moth
ing in comparison with the benefit de-
rived to the people who use the pub
lie highways every day. I under
stand this is being done down in the
st. Lukes community and that there
is being built real cross road in that
section. I am going down there on
Tuesday and will see for myself.

From Vaughnville / went over to
Mudlic stopping at the home of Mr..
L. H. Sem where we had good din
ner. l had asked the trustees to meet
me and to have some of the citizens
and patrons of the school present. l
feel that the children at Mudlic are
entitled to better building and a
more comfortable building, and thai
it should be relocated, and l thought
we might be able to agree upon some
different arrangement of the district
lines that would be advantageous. |
found that some of the people who
had been cut off into Laurens from
the Vaughnville district desired to
remain joined to Laurens,k and some
wanted to join Mudlic. So l left it
just as it is and asked the people to
think about it, and at some early fu-
ture date l would come back and we
would talk the matter over. The
main thing I made the trip for was to
get the Mudlic people to think about
the kind of school house they had, and
l felt when their. attention was called
to it they would realize the necessity
of doing something to improve condi-
tons. And l believe they will. Mud
lie is an odd-shaped district, being
only from a mile to one and half
miles wide and about seven or eight
miles long. And very few white chill
dren in the district. / hope we may
be able to agree upon something that
will help the conditions with the
school up here.

not agree, and then do something for

We did not leave Newberry until

We did not leave Newberry until
very near dark, and of course that
meant that we did not get to the
point where we leave the highway just
this side of Little Mountain until it
was, good dark. ] am not very famll-
lar with this road, and it is bad and
narrow, and so it was with difficulty
that I got along. I thought l knew
it well enough, however, not to get
into the wrong road, but l did not,
and so turned to the right at the
wrong bridge and when / found that
I had taken the wrong road it waa
so narrow that could not even find
sufficient place in which to turn
around, and so I kept going, think
ing that would at least after awhile
come to some place that was inhablt-
ed. Well, did, and when l found
myself / was in some ones back yard
and no one at home. But there was
room in which to turn and we made
our way back to the road we left and
went on down to the. right bridge and
found our way to the school house,
and the reason was soon found why
there was no one at home-they had
all gone to the school house to the
entertainment. The story of the ex-
ereises is written elsewhere as stated
The herald and news. [volume] (Newberry S.C.) 1903-1937, 1921-11-29

The main reason for writing this is
to say that the roads, after you leave
the highway, down this side certain
" need something done for them If
the people are expected to go any
where. That wrong road that | took

t;ced that it is mail route and just
how the carrier gets over it when the
rains come Isdo not see. The other
road from the Mountain on to Mr.
Dan Boland's konw is called public
road, but it is narrow and rough.
These highways are mighty fine, and
am glad that we have them, but
would like to see some of the cross
roads put in at least passable conc:-
tion, and l am not intending to crit
icise any of the highway officials, be-
cause I feel that they are doing the
best they can with the means avail
able, and in fact am not intending
to find fault with or criticise any one,

ARTIST WINS HUSBAND

"a Kiss In Time," the latest
Wanda Hawley release, which comes
to the Wilson Theatre Monday, is

Brown, which appeared in McClure's s
Magazine, under the title From
Four Till 11:03."
1t is the story of story about a
wager that a man met and kissed a
girl within four hours. A man
writes the story, and the magazine
which buys it sends it to girl illus
! traitor, who promptly sends it back,
saying that she absolutely refuses to
illustrate such an impossible yarn.
Greatly piqued when he hears this,
the author makes wager with him
+! self that he will kiss the artist with
! in four hours after he meets her,
and he sets about the task. OF
course, he wins both the wager and
girl.
! AS played by Wanda Hawley acd
T. Roy Barnes, with Walter HERS
on hand, in the role of an amateur
detective, to complicate the fun, this
comedy promises a real treat. The
picture was directed by Thoma.

The Theatres
MIR e Az

A child actor used by William Dun
can in his Western story, 'Steelheart'
which is being shown at the Murray
theater does some exceptionally fine
business. While the boy appears but
a few times in the story each time he
stands out in bold relief against the
action that goes on about him. He
was brought up in the west on a ranch
where silver dollars are used in place
of bills and his early training or OBJ
servation induced him to perform bit
of action not written in the script, but
which was so human that Mr.. Duncan
included it in the production.
On one occasion the hero hands the
child silver dollar and without di-
rection the youthful player started to
bite it to see if it was good. This ac-
ton is found thrC ughout the west and
is so typical of the westerner that Mr..
Duncan decided to incorporate it as
part of the film.
The story is one of excitement and
filled with human interest. T h e
blowing up of hill a fight between
Mr.. Duncan and the bear, the sensa-
tional rescue of a horse from the river
and intensity human story are some of
the high lights of the production.

trayed by Miss Hammerstein demands
