History ot the Red Hill So
*f School?What It Is Doing
and a Plea for Ms T3dfiHftii- xt
ance. \
Mr. Editor: Allow me space an
in your valuable paper to ex- bo
press a few thoughts in reference th<
to the Red Hill school. This est
school house is located on the Yoi
border of four sch >ol districts,
namely, Union, Fork Hill, Anti m(
och and Rich Hill, but the house loe
is in the Rich Hill District! br<
This school is from two and one- 0f
half to three miles from any to
echoed. This' school house was W]
k..:it )-?- i
uuii* owoiy oy toe patrons, about
eighteen in number, who cut the the
stocks and hauled them to the jj
saw mill. And built a large, 0V(
good house, 30x40 feet, and 8W
made up a good school for the
summer, paying $35 per month ^rl
for a teacher?money paid in
advance- We now have fifty- cj
two scholars on the roll, and let
me pause and say right here
that' a good number of these
little tots have never been in a ^
school house before, the school
houses being too far distant.
And, again, we have a large
V Sunday School in this bouse /
evdry Sunday, about 75 in num. * *
ber On the roll; This house is *n<
filling a long-felt need in the inJ
community, thus enabling little
children to avail themselves of 'y
the opportunity to get some edu ^ol
cation, which is justly due them, !
and also lo be trained tip in the rot
Sunday School, while if it were ha
not for this school house some of ph
them surely would grow up io in
ignorance. arc
Mr. Editor, when I look at the wa
situation these little children are
in, and at the distance they are
from any school or church, and an<
hear of some fellow whose child- t^e
ren live in the school house yard |
object to this school, it makes jng
my blood burn within my veins. .
Equal rights to all and special )U
privileges to none, is my motto, A111
and it is Democratic, too. Oh mo
my God, how can a man be so v
selfish as to drag these little tots
three miles to school through
rough weather, over creeks and W1'
branches,in rain and over muddy
roads, when his children live in <1M
the school house yard? Is it Pej
fair, is it just? As I said in the J
h outset tins school house was ,on
built by the patrons of the school utt
who paid every dollar; as was U8e
also the teacher paid. Now we '
do not aim to hurt any school, vei
we do not want anything but hoi
what rightly belongs to us, we wit
only ask for the money that we ah
pay in for school purposes to be wr
appropriated to this school. Is wa
it right for us to have it, or is it wo
right for us to pay taxes tb edu- gre
cate the other fellow's child who ?
lives in the school house yard? |y
This we must do the way the a j
thing is situated now or drag our cj0
little tots from 2 1-2 to 3 miles cje
through all sorts of weather. ,
This school we need. This
i?(
school we are going to continue. .

What will those in authority do
W ft
tor us?will they give us our
money o^will they make us pay ^
to edicate the oiher fellow's
child that lives in the school
houso vard, and run our school i
out ot our own pockets? Mr. i
Editor, I have given to the reader
a short sketch ol the siiua- pel
tion ot the people who compose !
i the Red Hill school. Anil again "N

what are you going to do for ub? ]
