WARNING NOTE
IS ALLEGED
Storie.s are going about to the effect
that Rrock Bruton on Wednesday
morning: of last week, upon coming in
from his work before breakfast,
found a note pinned to his door which
~was signed K. K. K.
The contents of the note, if indeed
he found any, have not been disclosed.
Bruton himself, according to reports,
refuses to have anything to say about
it, .and he would neither confirm the
report nor would he deny it in positive
terms.
Bruton is an employee of the Conway
Lumber Company and his work
causes him to stay at the plant during
the night and he sleeps in the day
time.
liaxiey, a locomotive engineer, employed
by the same company was
sleeping in the Bruton home. It is
claimed that Baxley saw the note on
thf door addressed to Burton, hut he
did not see the inside of the paper.
The note remained on the door until
later on that same morning Bruton
came in and took it down.
Reports are also rife that a similar
communication was left at the
door, or gate of Tine Powell, a carpenter,
who has a residence in the
lower or southern part of the residential
section of Conway. Tt was
said tliat Powe'l had left a few days
since for Florida, where it is claimed
lie had some business, and the report
as to *he note left for him could not
be confirmed by interviewing him.
NEW BUSIS
ON NEW RUN
There is a new bus which is on ,a
new line, beginning last Monday.
W. Fred Stanley, who has the contract
for carrying the mails from
Conway to Little River and return,
purchased a sixteen-passenger omnibus
and made the first trip with it
from T>iftlo River here and return on
last Monday.
This makes the second bus line to
he established with Conway as the
terminus. It spells progress and improvement
for the traveling public.
CHIEF AMBROSE
HAS RESIGNED
Mayor Wingate announced this
morning that Mr, L. R. Ambrose, who
has been Chief of the Polico Department
for several years, tended his
resignation, to take efTect. or. the K?th
of December. Tt is with many 10grets
to tho City of Georgetown that
Wv. Ambrose has resigned as lie has
done his, work faithfully and dilligently
and has carried out the duties
of the office most efficient.v. Mr.
yVmbrose stated that his reason frr
resigning was that he has a very fine
farm at Plantor villo mi 1
tile business which will require hi?
full time.
As the chief of police is an appointed
office by the mayor, Mr. Rohm

CALL OF THE
ECONOMY HOME
Mrs. Claude H. Waters, teacher of
the Sarrat School, in Cherokee County,
is the first to respond to the appeal
sent out recently by the Economy
Home, Kings Creek, S. C. She sends
us $17.50 in a letter saying, "We are
glad to have a part in this great
work. May God bless the children
and teachers and teach His people to
respond generously to the needs of
this Home.."
The next response came from Mrs.
F. F. Rainsford, of Trenton, S. C.
She writes: "I would like to have an
entertainment in the interest of the
Economy Home, but six out of fourteen
of my pupils are motherless. I
am sending you $2.50. Wish I could
make it much more."
Miss Pearl Martin, of Summerton,
S. C., sends us $5.00 and closes by
saying: "May Heaven's richest blessings
rest on the Home."
Such letters as these are what
Veen the fires of hope burning with
the superintendent and teacners or
The Economy Home.
Thanksgiving: we budded our Christmas
tree with the wishes of the
children. Each child wrote down
what she or he wanted Santa to bring:.
These were rolled up and tied on
the tree. You could hardly name a
nice present that was not mentioned
in these wishes. Fifteen wished for
Bibles.
We wonder who would like to play
Snnta Claus for these motherless
children? ,
FURTHER FACTS
FROM LORISITE
This article has been sent tc
? The Herald by a Lorisite fol- X
lowing the article which ap
Y pen red in the paper last week. T
^ The Herald is not the author of +
this article, and hencc the col
umns of the paper is open to ?
all interested parties t(. publish
corrections of any mistake or x
ianccuracies appearing in the +
article.?Ed.
An article in The Herald last week
stated that "Loris School stays in a
muddle." This misrepresented the true
conditions. Presumably The Herald
reporter (lid the best that he could
w;th the information at hand, but he
lacked the facts. This article is a
statement of the indisputable facts
in the case.
The people of Loris preferred keeping
their difficulties out of the public
press, but, since the above named article
was published, they feel the necessity
of letting: the true facts and
conditions be known.
In the people of Loris, realizing
the necessity for an adequate

ly-established hif?h school, met in
mass Mooting for the purpose of devising
plans for its erection. At. this
mcetinsr it was almost the unanimous
decision to vote on bonds to the
:.mf''ii! t of wO,000.00, but, in order to
meet the objections of 01 e or two who
insisted that the amount he reduced !
to *2o.0ef), this was done. This bond j
issue va authorized by a special act
of the General Assembly and the
bonds were printed and offered fori

to sell them on account %'f

put up a building: costing: little more
than the $lfi,000 in hand. The people
showed very decidedly, their preferonce
for the proposed $25,000 buildin.a:.
Mr. H.arrelson announced that ho
would send in his resignation to the
Sunorintendent of Education. Ho
sent it the next day. The Loris folks,
knowing tho importance of having a
full board of trustees to advor'i?e for
bids and let tho contract for the buildin
ir. sent a petition asking the County
Board ot' Education to pass on the
resignation and to appoint Mr. George
Butler .as trustee. No action was
taken for several weeks. During this
time it seems that Mr. Harrolson repeatedly
asked the County Superintendent
to acce?)t his resignation.
Tt appears that this matter came
before the board onlv at"or weeks of
delay. The resignation was .accepted
by a majojrity of the board, but no
appointment was made to fill the vacancy.
One member of the board
notified Mr. Harrelson of this action.
For at least a good portion of the
time Mr. Harrelson refused to do the
work of a trustee, though informed
that he was still filling- the pVace.
During all this time, work on the
building was held up since the contract
could not be let on account of
this uncertainty. After much delay,
however, the contract for roof, walls
and sub-floor of the building was let.
using for this purpose, the $16 000
from bonds. The lowest bidder died
while his financial standing was being
investigated.
TVf~ IT T> T tV.** ~
iui. xii i . uic iiCAi luncoi uiKi
der, was awarded the contract.
In the meantime, the term of trustee
of D. W. Hardwick, had expired,
thus leaving only one trustee who
had any assurance of remaining on
the board. As is well known, the law
requires the County Board of Education
to make the appointment of
trustees on the 30th of April. Finally
letters went out to the people in the
various districts to meet and select
trustees. Before the meeting could
he held, the grand jul.y reported.
Naturally after this the people of
Loris did not meet and elect trustees,
but numbers of Loris people
asked Mr. Allen to fill the two vacancies
which was refused.
In July it was announced through
the press that the Superintendent
would be in Loris on a certain night
and hold a meeting with the people.
After this announcement, many Loris
people interviewed Mr. Allen (among
the number being A. J. Mishoe, W.
L. Rhodes and Y. P. McQueen) and he
they claim assured them, "The meeting
will be for the purpose of electing
trustees who will be commissioned at
once by. the County Board of Education."
Hope burned high for it seemed
that the vacancies of the board rf
trustees would be filled.

pie of Loris School District met Mr.
Allen at the appointed place. He
made an address, in which he enlarged
upon the reasons why the teachers
in the various districts were not
nnid in full for the work of the term
iust closed. This was of no interest
to the people of Loris, for the funds
of the district had been sufficient to
meet' hll obligations. Then he got upon
the subject of "peace and harmony;"
he stated that he would "like
to take some of you by my right
hand and some by my left Viand and
draw vou together."
The reonle wore expecting; Mr. A1lon
to ?-o into the election, and were
nrreatly surprised when he said, "I
pave you a chance to elect trustees
""r1 yon refused to hold the election.
Now you have lost your chance. You
would not listen to me. If you were
1to elect trustees tonight, or at any
o'her time, it would not have any effort
upon the action of the County
| Board. We will commission trustees
for you in a few days and will give
you whomever we please, regardless
of your wishes."
Upon ascertaining that Mr. Allen
had finished what he had to say, and,
as he would not allow the election to
come up. his meeting was adjourned.
A meeting was immediately called
to order for the purpose of nominating
trustees, simply to indicate the
wishes of the people of the county
Board. Mr. D. W. Hardwick ' was
voted upon to succeed himself, out of
HO votes he received 58; Dr. Huger
Richardson, who was nominated to
succeed Mr .Harrelson, received 56 of
60 votes.
The next day more than a dozen of
the citizens called upon the County
Board, urging it to hold a meeting to
consider the appointment of trustees.
The Board met, but after a lengthy
session, nothing was done.
On Monday following, two petitions
were circulated; one for Mr. Hardwick
receiving more than 200 signatures
of electors of Loris School I>is- (
trict, while that for Dr. Richardson!
received more than 190 signatures.
These petitions were presented to the
County Board by Col. R. B. Scarborough
.at a meeting of the Board
held on Tuesday, August 1st. At this
metting A. J. Baker, and T. B. I ewis
