A Card From Supt. Witherspoon.
Inasmuch as the trustees of the graded
school have met and appointed
a committee to take the
needful steps in bringing the
question of a new school building
before the people, we v ish to
arouse the community to the real
condition of affairs. Whether he
is an experienced school man or
one who knows very little of the
requirements of a modern school
building, whether he is a resident
of the town or a stranger,
whenever anyone thoroughly inspects
our school he invariably
goes out of the front door pronouncing
it a veritable fire-trap
and snvinc Vinw nn^AmfArtoUln
j o WWW MUWUUVi WWUIt
and ill constructed it is.
While Collinwood too late is
deploring the defects which
caused her appalling disaster villages,
towns and cities are directing
their eyes upon their
school conditions. May the children
of our town not be offered
as a burnt sacrifice on the altar
of ignorance and selfishness!
The first business of the school
is to make men, and then to
make them the best possible citizens.
Let us not keep our children
surrounded with depressing
conditions, and thus mar the r
lives on the very threshold. The
school is expected to train the
children for home and business
life, and for ten years the children
are entrusted to its care.
Parents, shall the first requisite,
the safety of your children's
lives, be neglected?
Cross Hill, ia Laurens county,
with a population of 500, has just
completed a $5,000 school house;
Latta, in Marion county, with
the same population, a $14,000
school building. The town of
Chesterfield, with a population
of 300, has issued $8,000 in bonds
for a new building. The village
of Tatnm in TVtorlKAm onnntu
v,..?? .? 4K/V/I V/ VUUiJ^ ,
has a $6,000 brick school house.
Seneca voted 5 to I for a $15,000
school. Rembert, a hamlet in
iSumter county, of fewer than
1100 souls, has a $3,500 school
building. Is our town smaller
than these, or are we poorer than
their citizens? Do we not care
, to do as much for our children as
we can?
| Some say you will put a debt
on our town for our children to
; pay. Both the educated and the
ignorant are agreed that money
put in an education is the best
possible investment for children.
Why then should they not be expected
to help to pay for something
which is wholly for their
welfare.
