County Chairman Howell hap
compiled th e following statistics rel
ative (K) the voters of the county as
shown JLom the recent' enrollment.
These figures show that the niAnber
of men who cannot write ahtir
names is decreasing ( and thao the
percentage among those between the
ages of 21 and 29 is less than at any
other age period. This is encourag
ing and if kept up long enough will
entirely do away with the illiterates
in the county.
The following interesting facts ap
pear from the figures compiled:
1. There are 3060 enrolled vot
ers in Colleton county.: Of these
4 39 are unable to write their names,
which is 14 1-3 per cent.'
2. There are in the county 94 5
voters between the ages of 21 and
29. Of these 108 are illiterate,
which is 11 2-5 per cent.
3. There are 792 voters between
the ages of 30 and 39. Of these 102
are illiterate, which is 12 4-5 per
xent. j
4. There are 570 voters between
the ages of 40 ami 49. Of these
73 are illiterate, which is 12 4-5 per
cent.
5. There are 361 voters between
the ages of 50 and 59. Of these 5«»
are illiterate, which is 1€ per cent.
•. There are 392 voters over 60
years of age. Of these 97 are illit
erate, which is 27 3-4 per cent.
It will t>e observed that the per
centage of illiteracy is less among.
the young men and Increases •with |
the age of the voters. This seems
to indicate progress educationally.
It also appears that 31 pet eent.
of the voters are between the ages
of 21 and 29; 26 1-2 per cent be
tween the ages of 30 and 39; 18 per
aent between the ages of 40 and 49:
11 1-2 per cent between the ages of
50 and 59, and 13 per cent, sixty
yeajs of age and over.
These figures would indicate that
young men are not leaving the coun
ty upon reaching their majority.
It is a peculiar fact that there are
fewer men in the county between the
ages of 50 and 59 than any other
There are three clubs in the coun
ty where no illiterate voters are en
rolled. Doctor's Creek, White Hall,
and tireen Pond.
