MrH D Shaw killed a mad
dog Monday of last week at his i
father's place, Mr J P Shaw's, g
near town. As the dog slain 1:
is believed to have bitten r
other dogs in the neighlorhood r
it behooves all owners of canine# \
to look out for signs of hydrophobia
among their pets. .
l*p to tive oclock yesterday t
afternoon there had been gin- I
ned this season at Funk's s
ginnery 64 bales of cotton. This \
ginnery is now owned by the j
South Atlantic Oil Company s
and has a capacity ot GO bales
a day. This is the only ginnery i
in Kingstree at present. ! ^
li you have a personal, local j T
or social item we will be grate-1 (
ful to have you write it out and
hand it in at the office or drop j
it in the postoffice, in case you I
happen not to have the opportunity
to tell it to a reporter j
for The Record. We believe'
the people of Ringstree appreciate
a good, live local and ;
social column and with a little:
co-operation we will give you |
one. j
For several months, during;
the dull season, to maintain the;
standard of the paper, we have
paid out considerably more
money for expense of publication
than we have been able to
I
collect. We have also been
through a strenuous and exhausting
campaign, which besides
the gratuitous work done,
has cost us considerable loss ,
financially. We now ask those
whose battle we have fought to ^
* stand by us, and even if you are f
not in a position to patronize i
our advertising columns, every 1
one of you can help us by dealing
wiiii the progressive business
men who invite your c
patronage by advertising with i
* us and speaking a kind word ?
to them for the paper. i

EDUCATIONAL RALLY FOR WILUAMSBURG
1
Klngstree Rendezvous for Educators
I
and County School Trustees.
Pursuant to the call of bupt.
.) (i McCullough, on Monday
August 30, at 11:30 a m., many
of the trustees and teachers of
Williamsburg county, together|
with a goodly number of the
patrons and friends of education,
gathered in the spacious <
auditorium of Kingstree High
school. Many prominent
speakers had been secured for
the occasion, some being sent
by the State Educational Campaign
Committee, while some
was secured by Mr McCullough
from our own county.
The large number ot people
in attendance is an indication
that we have better times coming
in our county; because
when people take more interest
.lie education ot their childien
we know that we have
better times coming.
After telling us something of
the progress made in Williamsburg.
Mr McCullough introduced
the speakers for the occasion,
as follows: A II Gasque, superintendent
of education of Florence
county, the Rev J W Truluck,
"the model trustee of Scanton,''
Mrs Mary T Nance Daniel;
I'rof G T thigh, of Columbia
College; O M Mitchell, principal
of Union High school, Rome; Dr
S C Mitchell, president S C University;
Prof J G Clinkscales, of
Wofford College.
All made very interesting
talks and we trust that much
good will result from the efforts
of these people. Dr Mitchell
nairl nc a vorv hirh romnliment
I ? ? * J ? -?" 1
by saying that he hoped he
would soon have as nice an
auditorium at the University as
that of Kingstree High school.
Truly wonderful is the progress
made in our State along educational
lines as told by Mrs
Daniel and Prof Clinkscales.
But still we have done little
as compared with some of the
other States. South Carolina is
still near the bottom of the
ladder in point of literacy. .
Immediately fter the speaking
the ladies . of the local
Civic League served luncheon
in the school house to the trustees
and teachers. The ladies
deserve much credit for this,
as it enabled the trustees to
hold their semi-annual meeting
the same day.
The Trustees' association for
Williamsburg county held a
meeting immediately after
dinner and discussed the
school conditions of the county.
No business was transacted but
much good accomplished in the
exchange of ideas.

lot of all kinds of stationery
