Rural Telephone Connections Hancock Citizens May Soon Talk Over | Telephones, One of the most earnest, enthuastlc, and business-like mass meetings w it nessed in a long time was held b.v <-iii- j zens of the town and county in the Court i louse last Friday night. Since the Ishnnielile's editorials be gan to direct attention to the situa tion and tendencies in the county with reference to ]{. V. j aml KlJra| ToJe. Phones, nnd to point out some of the be in* l| cent possibilities that would re sult from organized systematin direc* turn of these powerful agencies' many of our citizens both in town and coun try have begun to think and plan. As a result it was suggested by a few pro gressive in en that a mass meeting be held to discuss and consider these mat ters of public concern. The announce ment was made that a meeting would be held in the Court House Friday night for this purpose. Everybody approved the suggestion, and a large number met promptly at tho hour ap pointed. The meeting quickly or ganized by electing Mayor J. D. Bur nett chairman, and Mr. L. C. Miller Secretary. The purpose of the meet ing was stated by Hon. W. II. Bur well who also enumerated many of the advantages that would nccrtje to the entire county by connecting up the farm homes throughout the county by h system of rural telephone lines focused at the central in .Sparta, ami thus putting practical ly the entire population of the county in instant communication with all the phone sys tem In town ind with each other. Several others spoke along the same lines and Sup't. Weave, of the Bell Telephone Company, explained the cost of such lines and their manner of operating. Plans were suggested, which, after full consideration were' unanimously approved. These plans contemplated encouragement and co operation in building up lines through out the county in such a systematic way as will reduce the cost to a mini mum and the efficiency to a maximum of convience and usefulness. For devising ways and means of car rying these plans into execution, and for the purpose of oo-oper^tlng with (sections of the county desiring to avail themselves of the benefit of sucn a sys tem, a committee was appointed. This cofTinnttee consists of J. I>. Burnett, chairman, Robt. Holmes, W. II. Bur well, Karle Wheeler, George White, and M. L. Duggan. The committee has already met with the greatest pos sible encouragement from every source I and it begins to look now like our citi zens who have so long neglected im portant public utilities means to give to Hancock county the best organ ized system of rural telephones in mid dle Georgia. Progressive communi ties in the county will do well to con sult with this committee promptjy, and by such a spirit of oo-operation as has so far manifested itself almost anybody In the conuty may soon have In jheir own homes telephonic com munication with everybody else in the county. And then we will begin Vi realize that we have the best county in middla Georgia.? Sparta (Go.,) lib fcMllt* Eggs For Sale. Kggs freui thoroughbred Hi) IT Orpiugtona and Partridge Wyao 'lollt-u.

Tiie regular 'Spring Teacher's Ex amination for Kershaw (Jount.v will l.o held at the Court House at Camden Friday, May 14th, 190'.). There will he no Summer School anywhere in .South Carolina this year except at Wofford College. Work done at Wofford will-receive the same recognition formerl v giveu work in the State Summer School. Teachers whose certificates will expire this year should take advantage, of this exami nation or of the Summer School at W offord to secure a renewal of their certificates. The law is plain on thi* point, and precaution now may pre vent much annoyance later. The prospectus published werewith is of interest to teachers. 1. J.1 McKINZIE, b'upt. Ed. K. Co. Wofjord College Summer School for Teachcrs The authorities of WofTord College will begin this summer a regular sum mer session for teachers For the present summer the school will lust Only four weeks, beginning Wednes day, June 23, and ending Tuesday.!

History aud Civ ics, Latin, Geometry, Algebra, Afith? metic, Music, physics, Pedagogy, P.iysiology and Primary Methods. The faculty will be made up from Wofford College, Converse College, the Spartanburg city Schools, and other institutions in the State. A circular will be issued, giving an outline of courses, the names of the faculty, and other necessary informa tion. From the following outline of policy and purpose may bo gained some idea of the school and the lines along which it will bo developed: J. To offer in tho State ap opportu nity to teachers to prepare themselves for increasingly efficient work in com mon schools. 2 To aid in equipping taachers for high school work. 3 To enablo the inexperienced grad uates of colleges, who intend to teach, to profit by the instruction and expe rience of practical teachers in the high school branches. 4 To keep up the work already so well begun bv former State Summer Schools of bringing the teachers of the State together for exchange of opinion and experience, for the stlfhu lus and enlargement of personal and intellectual association, and for the development of a professional spirit and unity. 5 To develop courses looking to tho degree of L. 1., and to offer cours os toward tho degree of A. 13. This will be done by lengthening tho term, by gradually adding other branches and advanced courses in the funda mental culture and professional stud lea, by outlining work to bo done In the interval between summer schools. 6 To enable ow- teachers to uuite with the foregoing opportunity and advantages, the benefits of rest, recre ation, and social Intercourse in the fine summer climate o! tho near-moun tain country. .
