The county superintendent of edu cation desires to make the following statement in regard to visits to schools: "The condition of the roads is such that I will not be able to visit any more of the country schools for the present. A trip was made on Thurs day of last week to Mt. Bethel and! Long Lane and the road to Caldwell, which has always been known as one of the best roads in the county, was in such condition that it was almost impossible for two horses to pull a buggy over it. The road back from Long Lane by Beth Eden was even worse, but I suppose that the heavy rains and constant use for the past six weeks, it could not be expected to find conditions different. "I will visit a few of the schools that can be reached on the railroad during the next few days, and as soon as the weather will permit, I hope to get to other of the country schools. I will visit Swilton, at Slighs, Mr. L. D. Wilson, teacher, on February 27, and will arrive at Slighs on C., N. & L. train about 10 o'clock and will return on the mid-day train, and will leave Sligs about 12 o'clock, and I would be very glad to see the trustees and atrons at the school house on this visit. "On Wednesday, February 28, I will visit the Little Mountairn school and make the same schedule. I hope that the trustees and patrons of thismschool will meet me at the school house so that we may talk over school condi tions." PROP. J. E. CANNON RESIGNS. WilIl Work for Pacific Mutual-Prof. J. B. O'Neail Holloway to .Take Charge of School. Prof. J. E. Cannon, superintendent of the school at Little Mountain, was in the city on Saturday, and stated that he had tendered his resignation as superintendent of the school to take effect on the first of March. Prof. Cannon said that he did this with much: reluctance, as he was very much in terested in his work and that the school was moving on pleasantly and his work was giving satisfaction to the patrons. He has tendered his res ignation to accept 'the position of cash ier. of the general agent of the Pacific Mutual Life Insurance company, which position carries with it a larger salary a.nd offers prospects of ad vancement. Prof. Cannon was with this office for sometime a few years ago, and retired from the position in order to go into the school work at Little Mountain. He will go with the company on the first of March when the office will be removed from New- I brry to Anderson. We regret to lose Prof. Cannon from the county and| from the school life of the county, but congratulate him on the promotion which has come to him without his seeking it. The trustees have made arrange-, ments with Prof. J. B. O'Neall Hollo way for the remainder of the session, and Mr. Holloway will take charge on the first of .March. This is one of the best schools in the county and the people of the com munity have made nch sacrifice inI order to erect a modern and up-to date .building, and have levied taxes for its support, but do not mind going into their pockets for maintenance. Everybody in the community takes a commendable pride in the educational progress which is being made in thi community and we are satisfied that the school will continue .to prosper under the managemtnt of Prof. Hol loway who has had large experience as a teacher.

It was very c,court ig to see so many of the patrons pri ent, for the overcoming of public diff.rence is one step in the advani ment of public education. The school is taught by 'Iiss Ell Wingate, and this is her second y. in this community. She is enthusias in her work and when the trustees cure such a teacher they should ma every effort to retain her. In 191.0 the trustees and patrons i cided to replace the old inconveni( and too small school building witt new one and secured plans from Pr Tate, and proceeded in the erecti of a comfortable, modern and c( venient school house. By individi and from private subscription of 1 trustees and patrons, $200 of the c< of the building was raised with< taking any funds from the district a with the $200 from the State and cot ty the building was paid for. What I been done in this district can be dc in every district in the -county that in need of a more modern, comforta and convenient building, and if i trustees and patrons of other distrii that are in need of better buildin would visit this school and have a t, with the trustees, Messrs.
