advantage of the great opportunity ,
that they have in the offer of a ,
"School Information" column free.
We should prove our appreciation to ;
our valuable paper and its editor for
such a donation by sending in month-'
ly reports from each school. Let the i
people know what you are doing. In ! ]
fact, they doubt anything being j ]
done when you are not willing to '
tell others about it. 1
Teachers, have one of your ad- j
vanced pupils to . write your school | j
notes at least once a month, stating i'
the progress of your work, giving a 1?
description of alHmprovements. If i
it is only a flower planted on the j
campus, fell us about it. This will j
lead others to follow your example. i
Had you thought of your campus or .
school-room deserving a Christmas (
remembrance? A nice rose bush for j i
the campus, a few bulbs or some
other plant or plants will be gratefully
received by your campus. A
pretty picture or a nice book or j
something of the kind will, in like [
manner.praise the giver for many a \
Christmas to come. This can be
done by each pupil giving a few pen- '
nies.
The most effective improvements, (
especially campus and class-room >
decoration,are being done by the pu- i
pils under the wise leadership of the
teacher. What a great and glorious
opportunity the teacher has. How \
can you afford to ignore this? I shall J
from time to time write notes and
send clippings to the "School Infor-, ]
mation" column so that you may
see what other States and counties c
I of our State are doing. There is no j t
question about it, we must bestir r
ourselves more in the future than ?
we have in the past. Nearly every! c
county in the State is making vigorour
efforts to be first in educational j
affairs. What is^Williamsburg's plan?; ^
The following are the officers of j ?
the School Improvement association J c
of Williamsburg county: : ?
Miss Florence H Stubbs, Orgariiz- \
er, Rome; Miss Alma Davis, Presi-!
dent, Kingstree; Miss Mamie Mc-, 1
Lees, Vice-President, Cades; Miss i'
Cleva Rhame, Recording Secretary, i
Vox; Miss Lona Reed, Corresponding!
Spwptarv. Rome: Miss Mattie E! i'
Harper, Treasurer, Greelyville. I
Great pains were taken in electing {j
the officers. We feel that, faom the a
president down, we have made a; *
most wise selection. There can be i ^
nothing but success if they receive J c
the proper response from our people. I
In order that the work of improve- ^
ments might be stimulated we have
appointed a soliciting committee:
Mr T W Boyle, Greelyville; Mr W E
Nesmith, Cades; Mr E R Rowell,
Taft; Mr B B Chandler, Rome; Mr
W F Tolley, Kingstree.
For the conveniences of this com- t
mittee ana tnose wno win neip, we
have made out a suggestive list of |
articles that can be used to a great i
advantage in and around the school, c
We have included many very small f
articles, such as ils, tacks, etc. ?
Our idea is to make little cases and t
include a number of these small and i
necessary articies, which will consti- 8
tute "an emergency set", or some
other suitable name may be used.
All donations, whether caf h or goods,
will be used to the best of advantage
for this improvement work, t
Don't wait on the committee, but >
notify the treasurer, Miss Harper, J
urVinl- vr?n ran and will irive.
