Laurens Wins From Greenwood
While Anderson was losing to
Abbeville yesterday in the first
game of the Carolina league to be
played here, Greenwood met de-
feat, 2 to O., at the hands of Lau-
rens, on the latter's diamond. Lau-
rens, which on this side of the
four county spread, had been look
ed on as a dark horse exhibited all
the usual knockout traits of that
traditional nag.
While little was known last
night of the strength of Green
wood, except that some good men
are on the club, due chiefly to the
practice and workouts of the
Greenwood players, which attract
ed some attention here, their de-
feat yesterday was something of a
surprise to the "folks at home"
From the first Greenwood has sup
ported her team and the little at
fair at Laurens will not daunt 8
good following of fans and sup
porters.
Bobo, Crisp, Fuller and Owings
of the Laurens aggregation showed
great form yesterday, according tt
word from their camp last night
Laurens and Greenwood will meet
in Laurens again today for theil
second game.
Monday and Tuesday Green
wood will play Anderson in Green
wood while Laurens will take or

PUBLIC SCHOOLS
By Kiwanian P. H. Case

The citizens of Devils Lake have
always been loyal to public education
and have freely maintained schools
credit to a city the size of Devils
Lake. We now have three elemen-
tary schools, including the work Of
the first six grades, a Junior High
Schools for the seventh and eight
grades, and a senior high school
including the ordinary four years of
secondary education. The total en-
rollment for all of these departments
for the past was 1348.
While the schools are quite crowded,
owing to some difficulties to secure
adequate buildings in recent years,
it has been the policy Of the Board Of
Education to secure as sufficient
work as possible by employing a good
corps of teachers. The present corps
