This worth cannot be estiim-ted in dollars and cents, for through this channel new and greater in-tereat is brought about. And In these contests, we the con testants, can’t be the loser. If we fall to win the prize, the Improvi- menta e-re of great benefit, and oHy urges us on to make greater efforts In the future.

But the one great need to insure success is the spirit of co-opera tion. Of r II the civic and educa tional machinery in force. | believe that no amount of money so small expei*ded by the State accomplished more for the improvement of the rural schools tlyn this amount given by the State to the improve ment association has. Because through the schools the homes are ’mr*ie better, snd hundreds of boys and girls receive Inspiration for higher and nobler life. Now, fellow teachers. • let »u yet make greater effort to put the schools of Colleton county in th front ranks.
