Still Neglected. Sometime ago I busied myself so much as to express myself through the Pageland Journal in j regard to the neglect of our $8,000.00 school building. At 1 this writing no steps have been 1 taken towards repairing the ' building. ' As I said in mv first write-up 1 I am game enough to say what 1 I think. It is just simply shame- 1 ful the way the building is being neglected. | Our body of trustees are all ] good men, but as I see it, these 1 good men are certainly neglect- ; a very important matter. If the roof had been looked after and ' kept painted it would have last- 1 ed 25 years, but a new one will 1 soon be required because of this ' neglect. The exposed woodwork should not be allowed to go 1 Inn trot" n * /\# vu^vt tv iiuuui a wai ui paini. Then the walls and ceiling are * in bad condition because of neg- * lect. I repeat that it is shame- ' ful to vote bonds and special < levies for schools and then let a ( building like this go to ruin for < lack of attention. I am certainly in favor of * schools alright, but I am also in favor of caring for our school 1 building. Understand I am not 1 electioneering for the job, for I 1 don't feel competent of filling * the place as it should be. s I am going to give my opin- 1 ion, and it is this: I think it 1 would be wise to stop the school s now and take the money and repair the building and have it 1 ready for another term. 1 Another matter is this: is it ' ire-dung ine poor people outside the town limits fair to run the school on after they are forced to stop their children to aid them in their work? They pay their proportional share of the school taxes. I say it is not right. We people in the town who want to send our little ones to school longer ought to go down in our pockets and pay the bill, ajidnot rob the poor *5kt- farmer's child rights. And then I -? ,u.a o ^ II ought to be, it seems at times. Mr. Editor, you may print every word of this. Don't be at all backward. All who see these things as I do and who arp willing to endorse what I have said about these things and es pecially the first, may let me know for only a 2-cent stamp? and then we will sed further. We hope the good men will take action in regard to our fast decaying school building at once that it may be saved. Peace be to all. H. B. Sowell. The Newspaper Law. Few readers of newspapers fully and clearly understand the laws governing subscriptions. Below are decisions of the Unit ed States on the subject: "Subscribers who do not give express notice to the contrary are considered as wishing to renew their subscriptions. "If subscribers order a discontinuation of their periodicals the publisher may coutinue to send them until all dues are paid. "If the subscriber refuses to take periodicals from the postoffice to which they are directed he is responsible until he settled his bill and ordered the paper discontinued. "If subscribers move to other places without informing the publishers and the papers are sent to the former address, the subscriber is held responsible. "The courts have held that refusing to take periodicals from the postoffice or removing them and leaving them uncalled for is prima facia evidence of inten uon to defraud. "If subscribers pay in advance they are bound to give notice at the end of the time if they do not wish to continue taking it, otherwise the publisher is authorized to send it and the subscriber will be responsible of express notice with payment of all arrearage to the publisher," Our University Letter By Robt.
