COUNTY SCHOOL NOTES
Mile Creek graded school cl6sed
May 20, after a most successful
year with Miss Bennie Ducl
worth principal and Mrs. Kannie
Murphree assistant.
- ~Martin school dlitrict voted in
favor of an extra levy of four
mills for school purposes in their
district. Martin district already
had a levy of four ,mills, the re
cent election giving them eight
mills.
The Easley high school com
mencement exercises will be
e e < May 28.31. There are sev
n members of the graduat
ing 'lass this year.- D. W.
Daniel, of Clemson, will deliver
the literary address Monday
]night.
The voters of Montvale school J
district Saturday voted in favor J
of an extra levy of four mills I
for school purposes. This makes (
a special levy of eight mills for
this district. The vote Satur
day was 16 for and 3 against.
The patrons of this district have
also petitioned for compulsory
e(ducation, being the first district 1
in the county to do this. Who t
will be the next?
t
Wade H. Chastain, one of the
public spirited citizens of the
county, has offered, free of rent
for ten years, ten acres acres of
land just behind the Montvale
school house for the use of the
school in teaching practical agri
culture and for experimental
purposes. This is most generous
in Mr. Chastain and will doubt
less be the cause of much real
and lasting good. We under
stand that the trustees will ac- t
Tept his offer and will get a
graduate of Clemson college as
teacher, so that he may teach
agriculture besides the regular
studies. Montvale is one of the
leading rural schools of the coun
ty and is making rapid strides
Ioward being the very best.

W~ell. Mr. Editor, the last I
heard of the old hen was that
she was put to set on fifteen
eggs and when they were hatch
-ed there were twenty-five young
turtles and now the creatures t
are at large and the old hen is t
undter indictment for damage I
because she did not hatch terra- i
pins. Guess why. (We guess I
she didn't hatch terrapins lie- E
cause she was afraid the "pins" 5
in terrapins would stick her 3
when she sat on them'.--Ed.) <
