Big Rally at Hulon.
Saturday, September 2 was a big day
or the people of Baxter and community
round aliout, the occasion being a
Sunday school gathering and educaional
rally. The forenoon was de.'Otcd
to exercises by the children and
iddresses by Col. E. L. Asbill, of Leesdhe,
and Dr. E. C. Eidgeil, of Iiac.esrarg.
The exercises were held in the
nev; scho'-i house ;:u<l were
>;esid<;d over by Charlie I). Km'cce,
k perinieiiucii* ui ?he Sunday school.
iu rh? afternoon Col. John Bell
Cowill prt-aid^<l over the meeting;, iu;roduci?g
the speakers. Col. Towill
vas much dated over ihe completion
)f Hulon school house, and congratuated
the people of the community.
Se called attention to the fact that
ive years ago farm lands in f-he comnunity
could be bought for four and
ive dollars per acre, while the same
and today could not be purchased for
ifty dollars per acre. Col. Towill favored
compulsory education and made
i strong appeal for the adoption of a
compulsory law.
Mis9 Sallie Ganter read an essay 011
rural schools, after which State Superintendent
J. E. Swearingen was introduced.
Mr. Swearingen made a strong appeal
*or a better system of rural
ichools. He was very much pleased
:o see the improvements made in the
school building and was warm in his
praise of the work of the trustees. Mr.
3weariugen discussed at length the
jchool book problem and urged the
cooperation oilrustees La the enforcement
of the law. He did not think
he time opportune for a compulsory
Law. but thoaght the day would soon
come when such a law should be enacted.
Prof. D. W. Daniel, of Olemson college,
followed Superintendent Swearingen.
Prof. Daniel is well known in
the community, having appeared at
Salon a year ago, and the mention of
bis time occasioned an ontburst of applause.
Prof. Daniel made an able argument
for education in the rural districts,
and struck a responsive chord,
when he declared that he was tired of
hearing the farmers assert that they
were being oppressed; that they were
"? - .1
not as gooa a9 otner ioik. r,very
farmer, if he is honest," declared
Prof. Daniel, "has the right to look
my man in the face and say, 'I am as
?ood as you are.' " Prof. Daniel is a
pleasing speaker and he held the attention
of the audience for more than
an hour.
E. A. McGregor, entomologist, in
charge of the government's bureau at
Batesbnrg, made an interesting talk
on the ravages of the red spider, and
warned the farmers of the rapid approach
of the boll weevil.
A bountiful picnic dinner was served
in the grove, and, despite the sweltering
heat, the day was much enjoyed
by the four hundred people present.
