County School Notes The couinty superintendent of educa tion is a busy man these days, and it is impossible for him to attend all of the school closings and meetings which he would like to attend. lie gets out as often as possible, but the heavy corre spondence aind bookkeeping of his office keeps him tied down to a great extent. It seems to us that this office should have an assistant. Pickens county is undergoing a great revival in educa tional umat ters and the work should not be hampered. Mr. Petty Freeman, the contractor who has been remodeling and build to the Glassy Mountain school house, has about finished work on the building. Before the im provements recently made Glassy Mountain school house was a one-room building of the shoe-box type. Mr. F reeman liuas converted this into a model school room and has built to it an ad ditional school room, two teachers' rooms, two cloak rooms and a nice pi azza with turnedl columns. A rolling partition wvill be installed between the two rooms, thus insurmng auditorium fa cilities for public meetings. The build ing has been paintedl outside and is one of the prettiest and neatest school buildings in the county. Trustees wvho are contemplating building soon wvould do well to see this school house. The GlIassy Mountain school grounds consis ts of four acres of land covered wvith a beautiful oak grove. The plans of the newv school building were made by Prof. Lee of Clemson, Supt. Ilallum of Pick ens and Mr. Freeman. Both Mr. Free man andl the school district are to be congratulated upon the excellent job done by him. Glassy Mountain school district has already voted in favor of lev~i'9om mills tax and will enter the g Eou school system at the beginning of the ne xt session. There are aboui Ininety pupils within the district, anc with their newv building and an addi tional teacher Glassy Mountain will, ii a year or- so, take its place among the best rural gradled schools in this sec tion. The school house is situated near Griffin church. The trustees of this district are Messrs. J. R. J. Anthony, W. H. Anthony and HI. D. Lesley.
