The purpose in recommending the
books here mentioned is to have as
near uniform system and set of
books in the rural schools as posi-
BILE so as to save cost and help the
children who may move from one dis
trict to another during the school
term as is often the case. The state
board left a good many options and
while the basal is recommended our
board thought some of the optional
basal were better adapted to the
schools of this county than the basal
and for that reason we have recon-
mended some of the optional ioasal.
And in most cases they are the books
used in the city schools of Newberry.

there is now about completing an
other brick school house, and | eX-
pect the best and most complete
school house in South Carolina in any
one teacher school district, and Chap
pells has six room school building
with a fine auditorium and with am
pie facilities for high school, and
when it was built It lad Only d two
teacher school and a wooden house
that was 2ioout to fall down. Really
it would have been a good thing to
have held this meeting at the school
house so that the visitors who had
never been to Chappells could have
seen what fine school building the
town has, and it has not only fine
building but it also maintains a fine
school. And in few more years as
the large plantations which are IN
this community are cut up into small
or farms and owned by white Ceople
there will be a high school at this
place. and when the trustees built
some ten years ago they had vision
of the future and bull ta NEE. these
conditions. The fact Is, this is and
always has been a tine section Of the
county, and has been noted for the
culture and intelligence OF its peo-
pie, and for its fine country nomes
with all the conveniences. The stran-
ger does not get fair idea OF the
community from simply visit 70 the
town and the railroad station. You
must get up on the hill to see just
what fine community there is
around here.

After getting through at Central
| drove around by Pomaria and came
on to the barbecue and public speak
ing at jolly Street. There was a
large crowd present and in fact some
Of the speakers say the largest crowd
that they had had since the campaign
opened and they all gave the speak
ers fine attention. There was fine
dinner served and the makers Of the
cue also had meat to sell to those who
, wanted to take some home for the
folk who could not come to the bar
becue. And yet do you know the
people are talking less politics than
ever heard in any campaign and that
does not mean that there is going to
be light vote but l oelieve the peo-
pie are going to vote without pas
sion and prejudice and so doing they
will come near doing the right thing.
am glad to hear that the high
way commission is going to build a
road from Pomaria to Little Noun
tain. This should be done at once
and there should not be very much
change in the location except to
avoid some of the grades and to
straighten where it does not take the
road away from the homes or in the
rear of the homes because this will
not be tourist highway but one for
the benefit and convenience of the
neighborhood and even if it should
bend just little and be little fur
ther it should accommodate the peo-
pie of the community first and main
ly.
The Pomaria highway is getting
along nicely. The force was at work
in the town of Pomaria and the hill
this side has been graded down and
the jagged rocks that have always
made it bad have been covered and
placed out of sight, if they will just
stay covered. The road all the way
to Caldwell Ruff's has been graded
except the crossing at Cannon's
creek where the location was chang
ed and the bridge has not yet been
completed. The road across from
Pomaria to Prosperity, should 'oe sur
veyed and relocated and then worked
up so that this crossing could be
made better. Many places the road
goes right up the hills There is talk
now of the people desEing to do what
l have recommendation the past ten
years, put Jolly Street and St. Pauls
schools into one and if this is done
the road should be located before the
house place is selected. This is what
these districts should do. l have told
the people so for many years and it
is up to them whether or not they
will have good school or try to run
two with strain financially.

FINE GET TOGETHER MEETING
HELD AT CHAPPELLS

/ attended the meeting at Chap
pells arranged by the Newberry
chamber of commerce for last Thurs
day afternoon. l could not get off
from Newberry as soon as most of
the party out Mr.. J. A. Burton kindly
offered me q seat in his car, and as
he was delayed some little could ac-
cept. 1t is no longer near so far as
it once was to Chappells, though the
real mileage is slightly more than for
merly, but in this day we do not
measure distance in miles but in
hours and minutes, even when travel
ing on the highways. We reached the
town just after Col. Hunt began his
speech. I did not get there in time
to hear Rev. Pettigrew, but I am
sure he made fine talk. Then there
were brief talks by Col. z. F. Wright,
Col. J. NJ. Davis, Col. W. H. Wal
lace, Col. C. P. McDanie, Mr. Neal
Workman and Col. NJ. L. Connolly.
They all talked about cooperation
and good roads and the creamery
and how fine it was for all of US TO
know each other better, and really it
was a good fellowship meeting and
every one was in good humor. Every
one was proud of the fine road that
makes the town of Chappells so near
to Newberry, and we all have just
pride in this good road.

Going to Chappells is like going
home to me. My old home is only
six miles beyond the town, and that
is one reason am so anxious to get
the three miles of road from Chap
pells to the river completed. OF
course, not the main reason, but the
selfish reason. l remember when the
Boazmans and the Lipscombs and the
Watkins and the Simkins boys and
Captain Bill Smith were the promin-
ent citizens of the community, and
they were all large land owners, and
they lived well and had plenty. l
helped build the first store at Chap
pels for Mr.. Geo. T. Reid when he
came TO do business at the town. 1t
stood facing the railroad about the
center Of the present main street
leading down to the river. 1t along
with> all the other buildings was
swept away some years ago when a
cyclone or tornado came along that
way and wiped the entire town off the
ground. The Holloways and Pope
Coleman had not then moved to
ChappelIs. Mr.. J. R. Irwin, sup
pose at present, is the oldest citizen
of the town in the point of continu-
ance of residence And mighty good
citizen he is too. Mr.. John B. Boaz-

SCHOOL AND COMMUNITY PIC
MIC AT VAUGHNVILLE SEPT is

The new and handsome school
building in the Vaughnville school
district has been completed and the
school will open on September 18. 1t
is the plan to have big picnic and
public meeting at the school house
on the Friday preceding the opening
of the school and all the people round
about are invited to be present and
to bring a basket with something
good to eat in it and enjoy the day
with the good folk of the Vaughnville
community.
An interesting and helpful pro-
gram is being arranged and will be
published soon and this will include
several short talks by prominent ed
ucators of the state and may be some
of the local people. Any how it will
be worth your while to meet with the
good people of the community on this
day. The state superintendent OF
education will be there and the state
organizer of improvement assocla-
tions and the president of Newberry
college and the superintendent OF
the Newberry city schools. And there
will be music and everything to make
the day pleasant and happy one.
Last Friday morning l went down
to Central to help the trustees locate
the building, and the well and in Or
der to give them the opportunity to
get through in time to go to the cam
paign meeting at jolly Street was
at Adam Aull's at 7 o'clock in time
to enjoy a good breakfast with him
and family and then we went over to
the grounds and located the site for
the building and the well and Mr.. L.
A. Mcdowell, the we'll man, was there
and by the evening he had the we'll
completed and the material is being
hauled and Mr.. J. C. Epting who has
charge of the building will begin
work at once and within four weeks
we expect to have this building ready
for the children. This is to be one
teacher school and the understanding
is that the teacher shall give all her
time to the grades from the seventh
down and that all the children who
have completed the 7th grade and
who are ready for high school shall
90 either to Little Mountain or Po-
maria, and Central shall be sort
of feeder for these high schools.
This will be to the advantage Of the
small children and will ioe helpful to
; the community. And then We are
building along with the class room an
auditorium where can be held meet
ings of any kind that will be benef-
cial to the people of the community
and school entertainments. The build
| ing is little off the road from Po-
maria to Little Mountain but the
people of the community in coopera-
/ ton with the highway commission
have agreed to open a road from the
main road around by the school house
and this will give a nice entrance
from either direction. 1t will make
fine community center. While the
: school house is not very far from the
schools at Pomaria or Little Noun
tain this is a very thickly settled

I could not help feeling that while
they were all telling about the good
roads and the fine spirit of coopera-
ton and the creamery and the other
good things, that not single speak
er mentioned the really greatest
thing that Chapells has, and
so far as ! could hear not even the
remotest effort was made to it, and
at one time l felt that l would like to
make just a brief speech myself, but
then l did not go for that purpose.
But really and truly the greatest
thing that Chappells has and the big
gest asset is the brick school house
that stands up on the hill. And just
out about six miles from Chappells

must get up on the hill to see just
what a fine community there is
around here.
But it was a fine meeting and Will
do good. 1t is we'll for all OF US TO
know one another better and to take
off from business now and again eV-
en- a short social hour. Another re-
fIectlon came to me as l heard the
speakers tell about the road and what
it has done for Newberry and 1or
Chappells, and that is this, that l
dare say l could show by the files OF
The Herald and News for the last 70
wears that l have written more about
the necessity and the Importance OF
building road to Chappells and TO
Whitmire than all others things COM
hined. and so much and so often that
sometimes | was afraid the people
would consider it joke, and am
pleased that l have been spared to
see the accomplishment of this dream
of good highways between these two
towns. 1t was a fact, that to most
of the people of the town of New
berry these two communities were
lust the same as if they had been To-
Gated afar off in some other section
of the state, because of their lnacces-
sibilitv on account of there being no
roads. tried time after time to tell
the people of Newberry how lmpor-
tant it was to the town Of NeWberry
and to the business interests of this
community to have better roads lead
ing into the town from these sections
of the county, but they seemed not
to take me seriously, and l am now
greatly pleased to see my contention
lor so many years so heartily endors-
ed by the people of Newberry. And
the next trip is to Whitmire. That
will be easy now. l remember not
so many years ago, in fact just about
ten. when l undertook to go to Whit
mire with Mr.. w. H. Hand, then sup
ervisor of high schools for South
Carolina, we undertook to make the
trip and left Newberry at 8 O'Clock
in the morning, and it took US until
six O'Clock in the afternoon to get
there, and while we made a couple
stops at Betheden and Cromer and
TriI3y schools, the stops were brief,
and then we had to walk from the
Phifer place and send the vehicle
back. l believe it was DR.. Snyder
who said, Civilization began when
the thumb began to cooperate with
the other four fingers" 1t is true
that we can not live to ourselves
alone, and that community only be-
gins to make progress when the peo-
pie of the community begin to real
ize the Importance Of cooperation,
and what is true of community IS
true of county.
Going to Chappells is ike going
home to me. Ny old home is only
six miles beyond the town, and that
