PLANS TO AID SCHOOL
Parent Teachers Association Re.
organizes for Work.

The Fort Mill Parent-Teachers
association met i'll the school aud
l.ornm last FRIDAY afternoon TO
r"urSaniZe for the work of anoth-
- school year. The officers of
,aSt session were unanimously re-
v.rcicd as follows: Mrs. A. y.
Jones. president; Mrs. l.. j. Mas
Hv!. VICE president Miss Claro-
lane tarotherS. secretary: .Iiss
Minnie Garrison. treasurer. Il
part of the work of the coming
year was planned and cOnSidera-
Die interest was manifested on
The part OF those present. Among
other things it was decided to
put on an active canvass for 0ew
members and to look into the
matter OF preparing exhibits foc
Il booth at the county fair to Ds
held in Rock hill, November
Gil.
Owing to the fact that the To-
cal parentsteachers' association.
has done so much for the school
and the community and that sim
liar organizations in other places
have accomplished so much, the
association Went on record as
heartily favoring county parent
teachers association. to be made
up of representatives from the
local associations over York
county. 1t was thought that
such meeting for conference
would rebound to the greater use
fulncsS of the organization and
lead to the forming of other cour-
tv units and. later, to IA State
convention. which would ma,elI-
ally aid in the stimulation Of ac
tlvity along the lines for which
the parent-teachers organization
stands.

that every day lost from school

every day lost usually means tina,

that pupils be OH time at their

Still Captured, Negro in Limbo

State Constable Horace John
son drove into Fort Mill Tuesday
evening carrying in the rear seat
OF his Ford car liquor still,
made of tim clothes boiler. he
had captured few hours before
on the Old Beatty Matthews place
IN EbcncZrr township near the
dam of the Southern Power
company. The other part of the
capture. one Tillman llanycS. ne
gro. he had left locked up in Rock
Hill in default of il 500 bond.
No liquor was captured with the
still and the negro. but IL consid-
crablc quantity of mash was
found at the negro's house which
was destroyed by the officer.
Mr.. johnson said he found the
still, after searching for several
hours about, i'll and under the
house Haynes was living i'll and
III the woods nearby. ingeniously
hidden under the floor of the
ncgro'S corn crib. on which there
was pile of corn in the shuck.
STOPPING down he saw suspi-
ciouS looking object which he
pulled from underneath the floor
with II hoe. This proved to be a
part of the worm. After diScOv-
cring the worm he had little
trouble in locating the still. which
looked as if il had been in serv-
ice for some time. HAYNES of
course is in trouble as result of
the officers activity and unless
some of his white friends come
tc his rescue the chances are he
won't be able to pick any 20
cent cotton this fall or plant any
