Thisji makes four registered Guernsey cows 11 now owned in the Prosperity Guern-i t sey association and the members are j c looking for more. > j1 A number of farmers in this sec- c tion some time ago also purchased a registered Jersey bull, 3 or 4 pure- r bred cows and a number of grades : i and are now selling cream to the 1t Newberry creamery. One farmer is selling nine gallons of cream per j t week and is .still increasing the herd, j k These farmers are growing their! feed, doing their work themselves j t and the crcam check iocks good ev-p eiy pay day. We need more farmers ji' to patronize the creamery and it will jv mean more cash, more meat, more j > eggs, better chickens, richer soil and in the long run better schools, better churches and bett3r homes and ? , * G more contented people.

Of course, we have: .! had a truc^ running in the county ] now for thfc second year from the ; Oi!d Town school to Silverstreet. and Jthe people arc so well pleased with; I it that they do not think of changing the arrangement, but the district does - not own tiie truck, and if this was on-j ,]y a high school it would be so much, i |better, end it would be much easier' ! to have a high school at Silverstrcet jthan at Po-narin if the people of the. ; community jiiQula.. or.iy jjet together and get a vision; There is more taxable property in the district, and - there are more children in reach of i Silverstrcet than of Pomaria. The 1 people some day will see the opportunity that is now being thrown ' away in this community, but the trouble is these children who are there } now will have passed on out, and will not come this way any more, and the ; opportunity will not come to them : again. We should have a high school ' at Silverstrcet right now with 150 } children, and could if the people could only be made to see it. All ".that I can do is to tell them. i ! ! 1 he arrangement at Pom aria is for | the good of the children of both disj tricts, as I see it, and I am -;iad that ; i the people have seen it also, iand I am doubly glad for the better j opportunity it gives the children.

While down that side on Tuesday I made steps at two negro schools, th< one in the St. i'hillips district and th< one in St. Johns. There are lw< teachers in St. Philips and they havmore than 100 children and a fairl] good house and the teachers reem t: be doing good work. At St. John: there is only one teacher with abou fifty chiltircn anri no nouse to spea* of. It is a house along side a churc'j and the upstairs is used for some sor of lodge and the house is unfit foi school purposes, v/ith no furniture a' ail, a few benches. It seems to me-al most a waste of public money to pre tend to teach in any such place. believe if we are going to protend tc cducate the negro we should at leas have a house that is semi-comfort able. I made o. brief stop at St. Phillip c.s I went down. Here is a good schoc with good teachers and the work i. being well done. The enrolment i: good and the attendance almost per feet. There are 20 children in tli: h'gh school department, ar.d ther< should be a high school here, a::'! v:. are going to have one next veav Would have had it this y enr if v.*: could have to teach. We cculd very well sen* the children from Fork to this sehoo to the advantage of both schools, an< especially to the child sen of the Fori school. We have a go>i teach;.:* a Fork but with only ten children sh< could do bettor work for then if sh was rdded to the teachers at St. Phil ips, and the children given to the sev oral grades there. There is a goo< highway all the way. I 3U??e^to< that this 3*car, .but the trustee1 thought best to run tlr- little schco ou for another year at leas:. I als< visited the Fork school. iMrs. Sligh i; doing good work here, bnt .she ooul: do so much mere; if she was part o' the teaching froce at St. Philips, an. it would bo so much bettor for th< children. that I almost feel like w< are not doing our duty to the?;* chil dren in that we are not giving then tho opportunity wo could, and that : is our duty to give them.

And by the word "our" 11 mean the people of*Is ewberry counj ty. It was your celebration as well _ I as that o? the ex-service men of the e I World war. As Colonel Johnson so r i fittingly said in his address, tha Le0 gicnnaires do not claim to have a s monopoly on patriotism. The men and women who did their "bit" at home demonstrated their love for flag and country just as truly as those who ? served in the trenches, or the boys who today sleep in Flanders Field. It is up to some organization to take the 1 load in our Armistice day celebration and as long as the Legion lives up to a the principles for which it was founded it should be that organization. We ,j appreciate the hearty cooperation the 1 people of Newberry have always givv en to our post, and we truiy hope s that our conduct has been such as to e merit your continued support.
