W | SlittUUL SUtTLlHik 1 RUIMGTHS STATE. 5 Seem to Detract Too Muctijsl From Educational Funds. 1 ? | cl SOME VERY ASTONISHING fi FIGURES. F ; w State Superintendent of Eduea-1S tion McMalum Makes a State- ? I wient in Uogurd to the j o: Situation. j u< When Hon. .1. ?). McMahanjd; entered tin; otlice of state super- ' sc intendont of education, ho began I to investigate rumors that the r* Static was being flooded with map> ri and charts sol?l at an extravagant tl price, and in largo quantities. at Tlu re was one chart in particular which represented the cost of $.">7.* 50, equivalent to the ordinary j b< salary of a public school teacher j 1M for a month and a half. t:i H W inviwti.mU.... I-- 1 ' ....vou^miuil ICU IIIIU U) *1 write the county boards, urging; si them to cheek the sale of these hi charts. ai As the teachers' associations of ll' Saluda and Kershaw counties havel recently adopted resolutions dis-1 w approving of buying these charts in such great quantities, Mr. Me-! Mahan was yesterday approached 02 in regard to the matter. j In February a communication i in The State from Yorkville called attention to the indiscriminate w purchase of charts in York county, ?' and that Mr. McMahan in en? w deavoring to check the sale j "was after Mr. Maytield." Mr. j c< McMahan at the time denied that | n< he was "after Mr. Maviidd," jnl und stated in a card in The State H1' that he was trying to prevent Ul further purchases He has since been making iiupiiry and coin- c' piling figures from the several counties of the State. He said in his statement, that from the re a> ports of the county superinten ,rt deats of education of the majority i 1,1 of the counties of ti e State, and from incomplete reports appear- " ing in the last annual report of;"1 the state superintendent of edu- Cl cation, it appears that between j $57,000 and $58,000 of public money has been invested in charts, |w and like apparatus, chiefly the ,n mathematical charts sold by \V. | \V. Tutwiler as manager of the,1' K. (). Kvans Co., of Chicago. 111 Tl I - ? " . ? v i lie cnuri sens ror and ?' consequent1 y cuts oil" at least ul*1 month's teaching in the school in P which it is purchased. To indicate the extravagance of the principle in some counties, it may ho noted that in Sumter 111 county this item is reported as: about $4,200; in Florence about, ^ $4 ,000; the proceeds of the throe j mill tax in the latter county is he- tt' tweon $10,000 and $11,000. In 1,1 one district in Floredce whore! ' thero wore four schools, the j county superintendent reports; 1,1 that the total school fund upper- | ol tioned was $.'380.00, and that of this $370 was spent for charts, g, leaving $4.00 to run the schools- jj In anothor district the expenditure is reported as oxoeeding the apportionment. ^ In Horry county where the l< three mill tax raises something " between $4,000 and $5,000, the amount spent for charts according to the item ia the state superintendent's annual report 19 orer 1( $4,000, and it is currently re- {/ oricil to have exceeded $r?,0<>0. 'his is more than was paid for ie employment of teachers, and leir schools would have heen losed hilt for the dispensary upplementary fund. The counties that bought, spent sually about $2,000 for these liarts, the expenditure ranging om about $1,000 to $3,000. In 'airfield no permission to canvass as granted; likewise in Chester, uperintendent W. I>. Ixnok say* ig that they had had experience f "the danger of turning loose jents upon the school trustees.' ' Mi. McMahan learning of the timage being done, exerted hiniilf to stop iurther purchases, he county board of Vbboville iported that they were in session msidering the ipiestion when icy received his letter of warning id they refused to permit the ;eius io canvass the county. Anderson county lias also just aen reached by the agents, and amission was refused. In Sparmburg and Greenville the cane iss had begun but the expreaons of the state superintendent id become known in the county id the agents had become untie to sell and abandoned the ild. In Lancaster permission as granted after the warning. Mr. McMalum stated that he inught the cost of the chart was stravagantw and that ho was sualined in this opinion by a nunc ar of educators. lie had had sachet s to tell him that the chart ould do very well in the hands f a capable teacher hut not otherise. He stated further that in some unities the agents had received > permission to canvass. Whether r not this would render the conacts invalid, he could not say, id the attorney general has not id expressed an opinion. The uirts were sold on contracts to 5 made payable upon delivery of ie goods. These contracts were, > a rule, negotiated and disunited imu edtatoly upon their i;ing accepted. He was asked if he censured ie state board of education for iving the agents permission to invass the State, lie said that a felt diflident in regard to passig judgment upon those who ere in a measure his superiors i otlice, but he thought that they ml acted unwisely in permitting ie agents to como into the State id market the chart at such a rice. 'Hindsight is better than >resight," and the state board rooaoiy na<l no idea to what exalt the charts would find sale. lie then explained the connecon of the state hoard with the mtter. When a concern of thin ind desires to come into the Late, it must obtain permission om the state hoard; then the *cnts can enter no county with it, permission from the county mrd. These grants of pormis011 are not necessarily rocomlendations nor are they binding i tlio school trustees. To Cor* Countl|>utIon Foravnr. TnWo Cascareta Candy Cathartic. 10c or 25c. I C. C. C.
