Up until 1907 such a thing as state ( aid to the public schools of South C Carolina was unheard of. Each coun I ty had to stipport its own schools out of the three mill constitutional tax, poll tax, dog tax and the district spe cal tax. The legislature in 1907, to encourago the building up of efilcient high schools made an appropriation. In order to secure the aid from theoI state the schools had to attain a cer tain standard of eillciency. Only the ' smaller towns and rural districts were entitled to the benefilts of this act. The benefits derived from this new provision were so keenly marked that there has been a gradual devel-11 opment in the system. The general assembly in 1909 wishing to extend its assistance to the weak schools of the state passed the term extejsipn or Garris act. The aid from the state in every respect is based on self help. The schools which were entitled to participate in this fund were schools who, with the regular funds could not run live months and who vote a s)eC cal tax of two mills or more. They would receive from the state a sum equal to the tax raised not to exceed $100 to any distriet. This has ielped the schools of L.aurens county a great deal. It has stimulated the voting of inore tax and helped to give the boys and girls in the rural district a school term of two months longer. This year Laurens county received $2,55G.51 under the term extension act. This was distributed rmong thirty schools as follows: Name of Dist. No. of Dist.

The purpose of the legislature has been to reach the! schools of the rural districts. Tere I were some schools in the rural dis tricts who had over fifty pupiils and ought to have two teachers. In or- 4 rIer to encourage the employment of two teachers the legislature has taken I another step), andl in my opinion, the ( most liportant step) of all. viz.-the passage of thre Rural Graded School ( Act. The two sections of the act that contaIn the requirements are as fol- t low~s: Sec. 2. Wh'len any rural district in t Souith Carolina shall levy and collect i speccial school tax of not less than four' (-4) mills, and when a school in such (listrict employs twvo certifted i teachers for a school term of rnot less I than six months, and when such school has an enrollment of not fewer than I lifty pu pils and an average dlaily at endance for the session of not fewer thian thirty pupils, andi when such I school is taught in a comfortable and l ranitai'y building provided with the minimum eqluipment prescribied by the 1 Btate Bloard of Education, and when I lt uses a course of study and classifi ation applroved by the State Hoard of Rduention, it shall be entitledr to i'e-r selve State aidl under thin Act, to the imount of $200.00 Per year. Sec. 3. When any rural school dils-! riet in South Carolina shall levy and olleet a special school tax of not less han four' (-) inills, and when such ~chool employs three or more certifiedt teachers for a school term of not ess than seven moinths, and when mceh school has an annual enrollment tf not fewer than seventy-five pupils ad an average (dally attendance for I hle sessIon of not fewer than forty I )ulis, andl when such school is aught in a comfortable and sanitary 3uilding provided with the minimumt lquipment prescribed by the State I bard of Education, and when it us ms a course of study and, classification upproved by the State Bloard ot I~duca.. l :ion, it shall be entitled to receivet btate aid uinder this Act to the amount t $300.00 per year, There are only nine schools in our "i ~ounty who received the aid this yeap ' t ext year there will be more, the e*t ~ lait 'ali Ithe appies~tions this 4ear ~ vero paid will stimnulate ot as to nect ,the requirements tno ther ,ear and thereby relieve some burden d teacher from trying to teach sixty al seventy pupils.
