At the close of Mr. W. A. Rikard's session the people became in'erfsteii in a better school and peti tioned the pecple of St. Paul district to consolidate the two schools on the 'ine between t' e two districts, both districts being small in size. This the people o.' St. Paul's refused to do. The people of t e .lolly Street dis- ! trict then petitioned the board for the | r.rivilesrp of moving the school about ' one-half mile farther down the road, near t(,e center of the district. This was granted by ti e board in 1910. One acre and a half of land was purchased . from LT V. Livingston, who owned the ' DeWalt quarter at that time, and the | same old house was moved to within ; ' about 200 yards of where the present school now stands. tMiss Bessie Mc Graw, now t'.ie wife of Mr. H. B. Ricih ardson, was the first teacher to teach in this building after it was moved. ' She taught two successful terms, and i it was through her zealous energy 1 that a school improvement associa-! tion was organized 1 e first in t'>.e i history of the school?and it was j through this organization that the; school received its first attention in the form of a paint brush. P'.ie wl.ole district now seemed to become more interested in the school than ever before. Miss Eva bOOKman, or inuu, i one session next, and the last teacher J in charge in this building was Miss J Mae Arnick, of Newberry, who still re- ; mains a fail'Jful instructor in the present school building. This brings us to the closing session of 1913, at which time the peop'Ie again petitioned the people of St. Paul's to consolidate the two schools. The petition was signed by all the peo WmgBR SHHnHu V ;.V ;, *** ti^>^. :. v ; ^rX- * , < . Jolly Street Base Ball Club. i n?o nf inilv Street and by a goodly t number of tt'.:e St. Paul people. T^e I petition i'or consolidation was then 1 sent to the board, but this seemed to I be against the will of the majority of j the St. Paul district, and again it was 1 impossible to consolidate the two schools. i Col. E. H.-'Aull, w! o is a wnolesouled 1 3 ?? rrtiinh t educational worKer aim uiu su i for t' e advancement for better schools i during his short administration as i Superintendent of education, used his i utmost influence to consolidate the i i two schools, but his efforts were unl availing. He then encouraged the peo'* ?; 11 ~ [ pl0 10 VOI0 'd lour-iuiil let a auu wuuu j a rural graded school, such as would comply several times and making several speeches in behalf of the work. We also must make mention of Dr. G. i Y. Hunter, who did likewise and who j always stood close by the people of that community, lending t'."!em a helping hand 'in time of need. i i We also wish to mention t" e helpful j work done, by Miss Lizzie Hawkins, * - *- *4- fimo Onr? it j rural supervisor ai mat n?ic, ?tlu was during the close of this session that she came into the community and spent a week among the people of f!ie district, ma' ing a house to house canvass and talking school interest to the people, telling them what fi;r mill tax on ; h>-9 ' mk :i up-S j-daU- bui' lir.g. and putting 'r should* rs to tiw wheel and pus'M ?f in or.c direction for a higher instij ution of learning. Tiie people, seeing o\v m:ir. this good lady and mil, who was .superintendent at thfl imc, was interested in their welfafl ecided to call an election and voifl our-mil! tax, as they had bnen ? ised. If our memory serves us r? ::e vote wis almost solid in favfl he four-mill tax. They then decwH o en:ct the building during t e sum^^^B 4 ner monins. w Col. Aull having recommended an I ippropriation of $1,200, the people a5: at time were debating whether to 1 Geo. D. Brown, County Superintendent of Education. build a wooden -structure or a brick: building. It was about this time that. Col. Aull and Miss Hawkins went out of office and Mr. Geo. D. Brown and Miss Sadie Goggans entered upon their^l duties, and with their educational en-^B ergy so successfully pus':ed forward the work that had been so wrell planned S and as a result of t':e efforts of these four interesting workers there stands today a magnificent building with a | beautiful auditorium, a well equipped | three-teacher school with an enrollment of 83 pupils. It is probable that 1 a fourth teacher will have to be added. jm The people of the Jolly Street comribbons to be awarded for such arti cles will be on hand.

Officials are still at soa as to How { much to expect under tlie tax law for 1 i the fiscal year 1915. Secretary Mcj Adoo has figured upon $80,00^,000.
