SCHOOL YEAR

The most successful session in
the history of the Rankin County
A. III. S., at Johns, will be brought
to a close Monday night. May l,
when twenty-three boys and girls
will be given diplomas.
The school opened SEPT. 4th.,
with an enrollemnt far in excess
of its capacity. The State Y. NJ, G.
A., forces came to our rescue with
tents and these temporary quar-.
ters were used for the Overflow"
while another domitcry was in
course of construction. The third
dcrmitorv was cmpleted about Dec
ennber 1st. We were unable to
house the girls in such temporary
quarters and therefore forced to

plicants.
The Agricultural School is a 4
year high school, accredited with
the colleges of the state and is a
Smith Hughes school doing vo-
cational agricultural work, Rankin
County is strictly an agricultural
county and Therefore the school can
rightfully and forcefully claim g
secure place in the hearts of The
people. If every town school in the
county should become accredited
within the next twelve mnths, it
would not remove the necessity
for a school of this type. We have
very few strong consolidated
schools in the county, On the other

patrons in a school district know
these men and should elect them
as their school trustees. | have
already mailed out blank forms
to one trustee in Gao sohaal dls=
