It doesn't do much good to bury
the hatchet and leave the handle
sticking out.

the Office some eight years ago to
unite St. Lukes and Big Creek and
esta blish out here in the country a
high school with five or six teachers
but even a five teacher high school
would better work than six teachers
IN the two schools separated as they
are can possibly do now. l am pre-
pairing petition now, and will send
them down in a few days, and we will
ask the people Of the two districts to
express themselves on the matter Of
uniting and establishing real school.
They have now about $50 or more
children in the two districts, and
there is no reason that | can see why
these children should not have the
advantages of real high school right
cut IN their own community, and |
am going to give their parents the
opportunity to establish one: and we
vii build with good large auditori-
um which will enable the community
to have all scrts of meetings that will
be helpful to all the people. 1t can
be done and should be without any
further delay. A community so
thickly settled with good sturdy and
prosperous white farmers as this one
should have real school in keeping
with their community activities in
other respects. l hope to see them
cooperate in the building of the
school,

On our return we stopped at the
Prosperity high school and met with
the association at this school. Mrs.
Quattlebaum was having practice
for a play with some of the primary
pupils ard we had the opportunity to
observe some of her excellent train
ing work. After it was over Miss
Thomas explained to the parent
teachers association the community
organization, and the members unani-
mously agreed to change the name Of
the organization to the community
league and to cooperate with the state
association. I am pleased that they
did because then the district will get
credit in the published reports for the
work that is being done. They have
real live association at Prosperity
and one that does things and that is
what we need in every school district
in the county.

If Monticello and O'Neall and Sa-
luda could get together and either cs-
tablish a centralized high school, or
put the three schools into one, they
could dc much better work for the
children now in the three schools,
with one teacher less, than they are
now doing, because then they would
not have to have so many grades to
the teacher. We had meeting down
there the past summer and talked
about doing aomethiEg. | hope 1t
nav aalerialize into something good
for the many children that are down
there. Sometimes it is well to let
matters of this kind soak. 1t seems
to me that the best thing would be to
have one good scnool with the high
school and the elementary school all
together, and then we could have a
real school. | trust the people are
thinking about il.

/ would like, for the trustees and
teachers to send me notice when
the compulsory attendance law is put
in effect in the district. You will re-
cali that the time is to be fixed by the
trustees of each district, and when 1t
is in operation the teacher is required
to send list of all absences to the
trustees, and unless such list accom-
panies the salary warrant it shall not
be approved by the trustees nor PAID
by the superintendent of education.
It is important that the superlntend-

We went on TO Big Creek, but there
was no one there to meet us and OF
course we made no effort to organize
an association, but Miss Thomas made
a helpful talk to the children. The
teachers at Big Creek are Miss Ethel
saner and Miss Matte Harmon. |

and Big Creek are entitled to just as
good educational advantages as the
children of any other community and
that they have the opportunity to

good citizens of the community. And

 I should advise persisting in oul struggle for independence, thought il were revealed from Heaven that ninety-nine should perish, and only one of a hundred were to survive and retain his liberty
 Political freedom was the day dream of his youth-a dream which he converted into a living reality dur ing his later life. Samuel Adams was the 'He1sman of the Revolution "a leader of American thought.
 & If it is is true @ that aa the greatest 6:st thoughts,' certain it is that Ameri- cas- greatest thought during the entire nineteenth century was the ex- tention of its hard won, cherished liberty to the oppressed and down trodden negro.

 But no. Who was the man be- hind the anti-slavery agitation, the founder of the anti-slavery agitation. the founder of the anti-slavery soci- cites, the pioneer of the anti-slavery reforms,-who but William Lloyd Harrison, the "Great Emancipator"
 He was man of action was Will liam Lloyd, to whom ideals were revealed in relation to passing events; who grasped with acute discernm ent the levers and weapons which he might ply for the releasing of a race held in bondage.
 To the conservative minds of his own time, he appeared as q horrible monster. We know him now to be 9 monster of truth, a monster of vir- tue, a monster of power!
 He was tireIess as a debater, ever resourceful as an editor. He en- dured the punishment of the law. the ostracism of men, and the violence of the mob uncomplainingIy.
