* Cannot Colleton Get This?
The Legislature at Its recent ses-
slon, made an appropriation of
15,000 to make a start fn teaching
agriculture in the rural schools of
the State. Colleton, which Is and
ever must be an agricultural county
should certainly be one of the coun
ties to secdre a teacher of agriculture
to give his time to.the work in the
schools of this county. It is th?
plan to have five * schools of the
county agree to having agriculture
taught, and for each of these schools
to make an appropriation of !l£n
toward^ the support of the work.
This will give $750 snd the Htaie
wil glre $760 more, making $1,50.1
as a salary to the teacher. In ad
dition the school must provide four
acre* for a demonstration plot.
Now. this is .progtessive work.
There are progressive schools In Col
leton county. What are they goln*'
to do about It? Will the trustees
and teachers sit down and let the
counties of the Piedmont gobble all
of this appropriation up. as they do
everything else, almost? Or will
they get busy and secure one of th»s-*
agricultural teacher# In this county?
We know live schools which could
‘easily take up this work. Shall wc
name them? What do you think of
these—^-Cottageville, Tabo.* or Stokes.
Smoaks. Lodge or Ashton, and Wil
liams or Ruffin? We use th wo with
-the alternative because they are
close enough to each other foi the
work In one to be of service to the
Other. Which will be the first
school to hold a meeting and pledge
Die $15ft and the four acres of land?
Let us see which community in Col
leton county is most eager to give
this kind of instruetioh, or which
is the most progressive. Now there
are many other pcliools which could
also take advantage of this. Hen

move? Do not delay, but act now.
-and get a concert of action among
four other schools. The county
superintendent of education has<
been active in school work—what do
you think of It. Mr. Strickland? Cab
you not go out snd In k week have
the five schools?
In Darlington county there hre
now three teachers In this work. It
was started there by three men,
Dave Coker/ Bright Wllllamston and
the county superintendent of educa
tion, and they had to guarantee
$l,5an Instead of $750 which is now
required. It is so much easier to
get the latter amount. There are
three men in Colleton county who
could raise the necessary money
without missing a penny of it.. If it
were necessary, and they would be
building a monument for themselves
that would outlast marble or bron*®
The editor of The Press and Stand
ard wishes he could afford tq make
the offer of $750 for this purpose
“ and If he had the money some of the
other citixens have made in this
county he 'would not hesitate a mo
ment In making this offer. It would
be bread cast upon the waters, which
will return many fold In a few years

this measure, hoyr will they measure

see. It will be interesting to note
which school will be the first.

community and take away some of
the money so badly needed nt home
just nbw. But we wish to state that
we were misjudging the motive of
this great movement, and opolo-
gixe for having such thoughts and
feel grateful that we had sense
enough not to have given utterance
to them before. Not having been
here last year to the Chautauqua wc
did not get a clear idea of the great-
neas and purpose of the work in-
ttended to begone, nor of the class
of men who are making the Chau
tauqua what It is In the country to
day. We had seen the Red path
Chautauqua wth Its great tent, seat
ing upwards of 1,500 people at a
time and giving seven days enter
tainment, and w*e knew that It was
good, and we feared the effects of a
comparison with the three daya
Chautauqua given in the smaller
towns. But, we desire to state that
the character of the entertainment
given by these entertained and
speakers ts lust as good as that of
the larger. The lectures of Col.
Gearhart Saturday night and Sunday
morning. If nothing else had been
given, would be worth to the com
munity all the entire Chautauqua
cost. But each number has been par
excellence. It has Indeed been edu
cating. uplifting and Inspiring. We
art* glad it came and trust it shall
become a regular feature In our town
life. The progressive citFzcns who
stood back of this movement and
secured it for the town deserve the
unqualified endorsement and sup
port of the people of the community,’
