A Letter to Our Teachers
At a meeting of the teachers on
last Saturday, 15th inst, arrangements
were made for field day con
* - " ?u?i (
test lor trie commuu scm>ui yuyno
of the county. The contest will be 1
held at Lanes school on Friday,April
4, beginning sharp at 12 o'clock.
Like those of the high schools, the
contest will be of dual nature, literary
and athletic.
The literary features will be: A
spelling match?any common school
grades.
A composition contest?subject to
be given after arrival at Lanes.
Two reading contests?one for 1
5th, 6th and 7th grades and one for
lower grades.
fior>orr?nhv and historv contest?
\4W5***r*v
any common school grades.
The athletic features will be:
For boys: 220 yard dash, 100 yard 1
dash, high jump, broad jump, hop,
skip and jump; sack race, tug-ofwar.
For girls: an apple race, a needle
race.
Only the two latter features will
need explanation. A straight line
is marked 80 yards long for each 1
contestant in the apple race. Spaced
on these lines every 20 yards is an
apple. Each girl has a receptacle at
the end of the line, and the object
is to see which girl will place all
her apples in her basket first, re
turning to the basket with each apple
as she comes to it.
In the needle race one girl stands
at the end of a line 30 yards long
with a needle. At the other end,
the contestant with the thread. The
contestant must run with the needle,
thread it and return with the threaded
needle to the starting point. The
one who does it first wins.
Two contestants for each event
are wanted from each school. It is
our intention to finish all exercises
by 5:30 p. m. I sincerely hope that
every school in the county will enter
contestants for some, at least,of the
events. Certainly every school
should be represented in the spelling
match. We hope to be able to
award all winners with some little
token of their success. Won't you
Koin us mftkp this first field day for
our county a success? As soon as
possible send me the names of pupils
you will enter for the several
features. t
The committee of arrangements
consists of Mr G J Hearsey, Lanes;
Miss Mamie McLees, Cades; Miss
Mattie Harper, Greelyville.
Counting on you, I am,
Yours sincerely,
J G McCullough,
Co Supt of Ed.

open to a number of yoilng folk who
enjoyed the entertainment prepared ,
for them by their host and hostess.
Mrs Rankin, beautifully gowned in
red messaline with jet heads and ac- 1
cessories to match, looked very 1
charming as she received at the door :
of the reception hall, where, being i
joined by Mr Rankin, they ushered ]
the guests into the spacious dining i
room. This room, as well as the i
others, was most artistically deco- I
rated to represent St Valentine's ev- !
?ning. The host then gave a toast
3f welcome, causing the room to ov- i
?rflow with ripples of laughter. Some ;
very interesting games were played '
until all arrived. Next on the pro- ;
gramme was a contest. Mr Marion 1

wafers, which all enjoyed. On re- ]
turning into the living room Mrs 1
Rankin had the boys work button
holes and the girls wrote business

enjoyed was an "advertisement" con- (
test. This exercise occasioned much
thought and amusement. Miss Bet- ,
tye Register was the best guesser ;
and as a reward for same received i
from the hands of Mrs Rankin a box
of stationery. Ere this was ended (
it was quite late and the guests very
reluctantly bade the host and hostess j
good-bye, each expressing to them
the pleasure they had been given.

Rankin's hospitality were: Misses

INFORMATION WANTED
As to the Matter of License for
Non-ResI4?nt Hunters.
Editor County Record:?
Will you be so kind as to give us
the law in this State as to non-residents'
hunting? It seems, Mr Editor,
we have no State license, or at
any rate, when one applies for a license
he is handed a simple receipt
trom a magistrate or the uerK 01
Court. Now. Mr Editor, is this a
license issued by our State and what
right have thev to demand State
money without a license issued by
the State with the State seal on said
icense?
Mr Editor, what would you do after
you had obtamed your license if
you should ^ held up by some one?
What good would your license be to
you? Now Mr Editor, I hope you
will put yourself to the trouble to
3olve the problem for us who invite
Dur friends to come South urd hunt
?.:aL ? T Lam ? Ml 4. ...
W1U1 US, SI/ X UUJSC juu wii set us
right.as we always wish to do right.
Wishing you good luck, I remain,
A Hunt.:r.
P S?Mr Editor, this is the ;.oint:
[f the State requires me to pa ' a license,
does the State give me the
right to hunt where the lands have
been posted by the owner of said land?
H.
We have not brushed up recently
an our legal department and therefore
are not able to answer intelligently
all the interrogatories propounded
by our friend "A Hunter."
As to the value of a hunter's license
we think the official who issues it
could give the information desired.
Without consulting our attorney,we
make bold to "take a shot" at the
law in reply to the query comprised
in our correspondent's postscript.
We do not believe that a hunter's license
gives one the right to hunt on
