W.N,(U., Ct(AR LOTTE, NO. 48--1910, PROCLAIMSA DAY OF THANKSGITING fl 3OVERNOR MANNING SAYS STATE a HAS BEEN BLESSED DURING 13 YEAR. I h DISPATCHES FROM COLUMBIA Doings and Happenings That Mark the Progress of South Carolina Peo ple, Gathered Around the State 1 Capitol. s t Columbia. 11 Gov. Manning issued a Thanksgiv- f ing proclamation, as follows: I "We live in a Christian country. We believe in God, and our prayers ascend to Him for those blessings that affect us as individuals and as a pe- r p)e. It is fitting and in conformity z with custom, that during the harvest season and near the close of the year, our people should assemble in places of wvorship and give expressIonl to their feelings of gratitude to Almighty God for the manifold blessings be stowed upon us. "It is a matter for profound grati tude that we have not been entangled in the dreadful war that now afflicts so many of the great European coun- 1 tries; that our national honor has been Jealously guarded and our in terests protected. This war has. brought to us new duties and respon sibilities. They have been bravely and unflinchingly net. The industrial crisis brought on by this war, for which we were in no way responsible, has been overcome by courage, econ omy and effort. That crisis is now behind us, and our people are stronger and better for the disciple and ex perience and the lessons It brought home to us. "Our schools and institutions of higher learning are full and never before has the interest of our people been greater and more alive to the importance of that educational train ing which will make our citizenship higher, better and more ffcic"t. "The harvest season l as brought a return of confidence and prosperity. We face the future with a firm as surance that better industrial, con mercial and educational conditions will be ours; that the spirit of help, of brotherhood and of unity, will abide with us. "These thoughts fill our hearts with hope and with faith in the future of our state and our country, and it is emiiently proper that with grateful hearts and with prayers for strength and grace to help the needy and suf fering in our communities, . to guide the young, to 'lend our help, to strengthen Christian character, to de velop rugged and pure manhood and womanhood, that we should set apart a (lay for thanksgiving and prayer. "Now, therefore, I, Richard I. Man ning, govenor of South Car-olina, do her-eby set ap~art and designate Thur-s day the 25th of Novemibe-, A. D. one thousand nine hundred and fifteen, as a (lay of Thanksgiving and prayer for all our- 1)001)1." Result of ExamInations.

Gov. Manning has made no afficial announcement as to tile matters to be diseussed in his annulial message to tile general asse'mly in 1916. Thero are mnany important matters which have developed dur-ing the , first year of his administr-at ion. He will use every effort to carry out his program for constructive legislation, which wvas begun at tihe iast session. The governor will pr-obably have tomething to say concernling a fight )m the boll weevil, which is gradually advannin~ o-nward Santh Canenlina. arnweil is Again Leading State. One of the most Interesting tables n the annual report of tle state su erintendent of education, to be sub. iitted to the general assembly in Jan. ary, will show the expenditure per a upil in the various counties. Since outh Carolina collects no state tax )r schools, this comparison empha Izes the weakness of the county as a chool tax unit, and discloses wide dis- t arities among the 44 counties. In the amount spent per pupil, arnwell leads with $39.06 for each rhite child. Since this record was eld by Barnwell for 1913-14, Super itendent H. J. Crouch and his co- b rorkers are helping to establish a ew standard for the state. Char ston ranks second with $30.96 and Darlington third with $30.08. In 24 counties the per capita ex enditure per pupil was above the tate average of $16.22. This is due the heavy predominance of white opulation In many sections. In only 1 Dur counties was the expenditure per upil below $10-Pickens, Lexington, Oconee and Horry. Educational enthu lasm is rapidly spreading in these Dur counties, giving promise of larked improvement in the next 12 i lonths.
