To the Voters of the County: It la my desire to see you per sonally, but office duties and short ness of time will net permit. So J am using, this ineano to ask you to help re-elect me to a second term, which I am entitled to acr cording to practice, as County Su perintendent of Education of Ker shaw Cuonty, I may have, during my administration made mistakes, but they were honest ones, as I be lieve any one will admit, my sole aim has been to try and better the school conditions in the rural com munities. I have given my whole time, and have worked hard for the educational interests of our coun ty. I have had the office but one term, but, during that time there has been erected, through my in fluence, with the aid of the district trusteees, 10 new -school buildings, at an estimated cost of between $6,000 and $7,000. These buildings cost the tax payers but little, as this money was obtained through my efforts from the State Aid funds. There has been established dur ing my administration, ten new li braries, and eleven enlarged. We are now contemplating building 10 more new school buildings. I have organized the Trustees Association, the Teachers Association, the Im provement Association, the Boys Corn Club, and the Girls Tomato Club. I have under way several oth er Important school matters that a new man would hinder from lack of experience. My opponepU owns and runs a newspaper, and holds a contract to sell the school books for the coun ty. To elect him would give him a monopoly of our school Interest detrimental to the service. I have made teaching a life work, and my three and one half years as Superintendent should be of some consideration for re election, and I pledge myself to do my very best for the educational In terest of Kershaw County if re elected.
