Every effort is being made to make this the most successful year in the history of the school. A very competent and, with few exceptions, an experienced corpi of teachers has been secured. All the teachers will be here, Saturday, the fijth, for the first teachers’ meet ing that afternoon, rrof. Fowler has already moved here and begun pre parations for the session and the \ opening day. He expresses himself as being well pleased with the pros pects for the session, with the corps of teachers, secured and with the ex cellent school spirit of the town and the fine spirit of helpfulness and co operation found among the patrons and citizens of Barnwell. All signs point to a heavy enroll ment. Mr. Fowler makes the special request that every pupil possible be present on the opening day with the necessary books, pencils and paper ready to begin work. He also asks that each patron get acquainted with all of the teachers as soon as possi- ble, especially all the teachers of the grades in which they have children This does not mean merely to meet ^ them but it means to really know them in order that there may be the feeling of mutual freedom from re straint in each others presence, so that there m«y be complete under standing of the problems of each child and the fullest co-operation be tween parent and*teacher in the solution of these problems. .A list of the books to be used is published for the information and convenience of the patrons. Pupils beginning this year will not get their books until told to do so by the first grade teacher. All pupils who have promotion cards or who are sure as to the grade in which they wHl he are requested to get their books and bring them to school on the first day. Assignments for regular recitation on Tues day will be made Monday. __ Getting the books this week be fore school opens will save unneces sary confusion and rush for the pupils, parents, teachers and those who handle the books. It will also eliminate delsy in getting thf pupils started into regular work. Miss Lena Cave, who is to handle , the school- books, has the list of books for each grade and will check each list in order to prevent mis takes and duplications. Parents and pupils are requested to examine the • list carefully and check with the books used last year, in order to avoid dupli cations by buying copies of books not completed last year and used again r this session. Th4 books sre in stock at the city hall, in the Harrison ^building.

Barnwell Filling Station • V # \ Barnwell, S. C. \ ! Advertise in THE PEOPLE-SENTINEL A scientist says that the young people of today have become “motor car wise.” By instinct they avoid automobiles and adapt themselves to traffic. Older peo ple seem unable to learn. Even chickens and dogs have learned Something. They stay out of the road and are killed less frequently than they once were. It would be good news if the young people of the generation would be “whiskey wise” in addi tion to being motor car wise. During the next few years there will be more- young people killed by whiskey than old people killed by automobiles. ' A plague of butterflies, causing motor engines to become over heated, by clogging the radiators, suggests a gruesome possibility. If the insect tribes with their horrible fertility, should get- out of control, they could fill the aiF> destroy all vegetation, starve, suf focate and devour the human race and all other animals. Nature fortunately attenfls to these things. Even the insect plagues of Egypt sent to punish ■in did not kill all Egyptians. Ten Hours From Broadway.
