County superintendents of edu
cation have been urged by James
H. Hope, state superintendent of
education, to join in seeing that
school children of South Carolina
come to Columbia Friday, October
25, for school day at the State
Fair.
Mr. Hope in a letter addressed
to each of the 46 county superin
tendents says “No regular school
routine can, in my opinion, com
pare with the offerings of the
State Fair for that day.” He
speaks of the day at the' State
Fair as a “red letter day in the
school year.”
Thousands of school children
come to the fair each year on
Friday. Admittance is free for
the children and the teacher ac
companying them. No red tape
is required, admission being with

Mr. Hope said in his letter:
“This letter is being sent to th~
Superintendents of Education :‘n
each i^df Our forty-six counties, in
the hope that they will again
join in embracing what I con
sider a great educational oppor
tunity for the children of our en
tire public school system.
“We all agree that real educa
tion is not derived solely from
books. No day of regular school
routine, can, in my judgment,
compare with the offerings of tbi
State Fair, where, in most attrac
tive form, our children have les
sons in history, geography, zoolo
gy, agriculture, music art, domestM
science and what-not. With thes - *
educational features and a won
derful amusement program, Fri
day—School Day—can be made a
Red Letter Day in the school year.
“I wish you to join me in urpm-
all school children, teachers and
superintendents in your county
to accept the invitation of the
Fair association to be its guests or*
Friday, October 25, 1940. You ma^
wish to present this matter n 4 ;
your next teachers’ meeting an 1
arrange for a general movement
to the State Fair, via school bu".
or by private conveyance. I
should like to see a great companv
of children present and enjoying
this fair. All children of school
age will be admitted withodt
question when attended by parents
or otherwise.”
