W. w. EVANS ELECTED
COUNTY SUPERINTENDENT

Saturday of last week w. w.
Evans was appointed superintendent
of schools of Knox County in place
of E. b. Hemphill Mr.. Evans has
held the post in the past and his
many friends are looking forward to
a successful administration of the Of
flee of superintendent. The new laws
which have been passed during the
past two years by the Assembly have
a direct bearing upon the improve
ment of schools and there is a great
opportunity for a conscientious man
to do great good for education in
Knox County. The best teachers are
none too good for the country child
and every effort should be made to
see that the buildings and equip
ment are absolutely up to date. AS
it is. there is no equality in the op-
portunities for education for the
country children as against the town
children. We should hold up the
hands of the new superintendent in
securing what may be had for the
country children.
In our foolish suspicion We down
ed the amendment that would have
helped every mountain county in the
matter of funds and we should re-
pent in prayer and fasting and also
in good works to try and undo the
harm We did the children at that
time.
We can do this by letting Mr.
Evans know that We are pleased
with every improvement he may
bring to pass. He has the most i'm
portant job in Knox County today
and on his shoulders rests, to very
great extent. the social and educa-
tional well-being of the country
children-Our future citizens!
