WEDNESDAY. NOV. 22. 1911.
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.

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?
