C.. to hold a hearing here at the hall of the Chamber of Commerce, thus beginning a preliminary examination of the Waccamaw River, from Red Bluff. S. C., to Pireway Ferry, N. C., with a view of providing a four-1 foot channel between these two points. Leading business men, as weli as others, received last week an announcement of this public heariner stating: that the engineer would attend at the Chamber of Coiv.merce at the hour of 1 o'clock, at which all interested parties were invited to be present or represented, particularly navigation interests and the officials of the city and county governments, or locJil associations or companies, wfcose interests would be advanced by an improvement of the navigation on the upper Waccamaw River; .all to state their views on the subject.

FARMERS BANK, By* Charles D. Prince, Cashier. J|ll|23-4t. o To the Teachers and Trustees of Horry Connty: I am again writing you in regard to some very important phases of our fichool worlc. While I believe vou are , felly informed and, for the most part, are carrying out the legal requirements, yet, I hope to be of service and help to you in your work by call Vitviw vw ? I'm illVCilllUII III manner. Horry County is very largely dependent on state aid for a seven month's term in many of our schools. These are the requirements which must be met to qualify for state aid: (1) a lecral district; (2) a modern, well furnished building-, conforming to the state's plan; (3^ an eight-mill tax levy for salaries; (4) an enrollment of 25, and not exceeding HO. and an aver age attendance of not less than fifteen to each teacher for every month during the term; the school term must be seven months and every teacher employed must be legally jpalifted. Horrv County shared liberally in Hie various kinds of state aid last | year, and I truly hope that everv ecfhool in the county will qualify this year, to Participate in these funds. Rural graded applications and dailv program blank? have been mailed to the rural graded schools. If you haven't already done so, you will please seod to this office two conies of your daily schedule. Remember that one copy of your dailv program must be sent to the State Department of Education for inspection and it is. Indeed, important that the program of edi sc>ool be properly made out. Material for the enforcement of the Compulsory Attendance Law has already been sent to you. It is very important that this law be enforced. Teachers and trustees should bear in mind the ruling of the County Board of Education in regard to transfers of pupils from one school district to another. The record of attendance of all pupils from without ' the district must be turned over -to the schools to which the nunils belontr mud their home schools credited with -Hie attendance, except in cases where transfers have been made and accepted in accordance with the ruling: above referred to. with best wishes for continued proXressj in oyur work, and a happy, prosperous year during 1923, I re' main, Yours respectfully, ENOCH C.

I HERALD MAKES BIG MISTAKE An article in the last issue of The Horry Herald contained an error concerning the relationship of Mr. B. O. Todd, who was taken here during the holidays under a warrant sworn out by Owens in a crop matter. The article stated that W. Todd was the father of the defendant in the case, or words to that effect, while in fact, the father of the defendant is Mr. E. R. Todd, of Myrtle Beach. The mistake came about in the use of the wrong initials, and the mistake was called to the attention of the editor of the paper a few days ago. o HONOR ROLL FOR BRUNSON SCHOOL DISTRICT NO. 81 The names and grades given below are those that made above 00 on general average on examination: Sixth and Seventh Grades?Bertha Skipper, Virginia Boxley, Marion Skipper, Virginia Boxley, Marrin Cooper.
