IIIIHHIMHIIIIIIIIIIWHIHIIIIIIIII GRADED SCHOOL OPENS onday, September 14?Parents Urged to Enter Children First Day. To the Friends and Patrons of [ingstree Graded School:? On next Monday, September 4, at 9 A M, the Kingst**ee graed school will open for the sesion of 1908-09. Everyone is ordially iTSnted to attend the pening exe/N^es. Several of tie leading cit. s of the town 'ill participate in them. We ope to see a large attendance, .et us urge upon you the impormce of entering your children le nrst day. Do not keep them ut a day, a week; or a month nd expect them to do all the ork of the prescrioed course. ?ne day out of school is nearly vo days lost, for it takes anoth to get back in touch with the ork. When will the lost day's ork be don?? Surely not the ext day, for work is assigned >r that day. If so, and a day . lost occasionally, your boy or irl will have a week or a month > make up at the 6nd of school -or stay behind. So. let all arents enter their children on ie first day and keep them | lere regularly. Then good ork can be done by both teach j rs and pupils. We are expecting one of the lost successful years in the liis)ry of the school. To secure :is we need your sympathy and 3 operation. We believe we ill have this. Let us all pull together for ingstree graded school. Respectfully yours, J (j roves Col&ekt, Snpt. mm TRESTLE USED. ?ast Line Trains Between Florence aod Charleston Running Through.
