The initial number of The Blue and Gold MeHsenger. a. bright neway periodical publlahcd by the Benaca High school. Is on our desk. Judg / Jng from the general eMfllenoy of this publication, there are some very fltn embryo newspaper men and woxnep in that school. We de sire to commend the Efforts of the students of this school, cod would hold their example up for emula tion by the schools over the State. ^ What, Is the reason why the schools of Colleton county could not Issue a creditable Journal? If one school cannot do It, whyi not let alt the high schools unite and get up a High school magazine? There are great possibllltleh for such a pub lication In this county. 1 Just now there Is much comment over the State on account of the ' &oe track which Is to begin opera- tloce near Charleston—Just outside the limits—early in the new year. It seems that the race trr.«ck has been condemned and run out of ■early all the states where theV , have been opuaDd. and It might Just as well be stopped In t'Jiarlesto before starting. If any wsy can be found. Cut out the gambling fea ture and there would not be any race truk in the State or any»- wher*. ^ • ^ The track ta to be operated by ■ the Aiharli stt)i:< Fair and Itaclng W •seoclc-tlon, and it Is proposed to begin on the 10th of January a 76 days racing meet. The promoters state that there will he an expendi ture of not Ices than $260,000 on their property situated near the city limits, and they will try to im prove ttye coMlItUjjn of the horses in tbe State by the Infusion of thoroughbred blood, their purpose being to farm out thoroughbred stallions over tho State. All this looks good, but back of It all Is the desire to get tho people therd to see races and to put up thdr Dioue Ju tic ui. Should this track be suppressed?
