Prof. It. C. Mclver made a very interesting talk, giving a full account of the progress of the school during the year and calling attention to some of the pressing needs. He also called attention to the great improvement in >hte colored school?stressing parti, cularly the departments of domestic sclenc^ and manual training. Following Prof. Mclver, the advanced pupils of the chorus class rendered a song, entitled "A To^st? To Profs. Mclver and Stillwell." Mr. R. T. Caston, chairman of the board of trustees, followed with an ? interesting talk. Mr. ^aston stated | lucti uie uuaru 01 trustees uaa never failed to meet all obligations it had incurred, but that it feels very much the lack of funds to do what the work demands. He stated that, according to the treasurer's report, the board had during the year just closed paid out over $500 more than it had received, and had it not been for a contribution of $300 from the Slater fund for the colored school, the board would have been $800 behind what it was a year ago, and as a "matter of fact," he stated, "had it not been for the incidental fees charged, we would not have been able to meet the expenses of the year.just gone." He stated that the year was started with a surplus, but that this surplus was being rapidly consumed, and unless some arrangement was made for more funds, the number of teachers or the length of the session would have to be curtailed. He said that there was a demand for more teacherB?that in some of the grades there were more pupils than one teacher could properly care for, and said that one or perhaps two more teachers should be employed as soon as practicable. He also referred to the fact that it was of great importance that domestic science and manual training should be taught, suggesting that it would probably be best to commence with a domestic science teacher who could give part of her time to literary work in the more crowded grades. For the information of the people of Cheraw, Mr. Caston stated that Cheraw only pays a special tax of 3 mills, while the neighboring towns pay as follows: Darlington 5 mills, Sumter 6 mills, Dillon 8 mills, Florence and Marion 11 mills, and also stated that most of these towns have other resources? incidental receipts alone for the schools in Sumter aggregating nearly $3,000.00. Mr. Caston closed his remarks with the following: "One mill will realize about $700 and two mills would enable us to em- ^ ploy an additional literary teacher and perhaps a teacher of manual training. These are the facts and the (; board earnestly hopes that the town of Cheraw will feel called upon to do its full duty bv its graded sehool, and will see this duty to be along the line a of larger things." Following Mr. Caston came a song? |> "Three Old Maids"?by Misses Susie and Caro Smith, teachers in the music department, and Miss Ora Sherrill. e Then came the address by Hon. W. F. Stevenson, which The Chronicle regrets its inability to publish this ^ week, but hopes to be able to do so 0 next week. ? After Mr. Stevenson's address the v diplomas to the graduating class were t presented by Rev. A. S. Thomas, rec- u tor of the Episcopal church. a Following are the names of this ( year's graduating class: a Misses Belle Hurt, Ora Sherrill, t Mary Lee Dudley, Mattle Lou Smith. a Virginia Bishop and Julia Pegues, and r Messrs. William Thrower and Ross Lindsay. The "tiny tots" of the chorus class j then rendered a song entitled "Bed. j time," thus bringing to a close one of t the most successful sessions of the Cheraw Public Schools. j j American Troops Remain In Mexico I Washington, June 1.?It was stated 1 authoritatively today that American 1 troops will not be withdrawn from Mexico until the Carranza authorities demonstrate control of the situation sufficient to protect the American border. A reply to that effect probably will be made to General Carranza's note. President Wilson was reported today as ready to withdraw the troops when possible, but is determined to wait until the Carranza forces can control the situation. Steps were taken by the war department today to obtain more definite ' information of the disposition of Carranza troops in Chilhuhua. It was said that the Carranza note prompted the action of military officials. General Funston has been asked to < outline clearly the situation in Chihuahua according to his most recent information on the whereabouts of Carranza detachments. No anxiety is felt for the safety of General Pershine'a columns, but in view of the statements in General Carranza'a note it is desired to know as accurately as possible what the movements of his forces are.
