S C.J Only so mucli of above awai A SPLENDID RECORD. Miss McLees Shows What Wei Are Doing for Education. The following is a copy of the report forwarded by Supervising Teacher of Rural Schools for Williamsburg county, Miss Mamie McLees, to the State Superintendent of Education. The report covers her tenure of office and briefly outlines the splendid work she has done toward the improvement of general conditions in the rural schools of the county: Kingstree, S C, July 1, 1915. Since beginning the work of Supervising Teacher of Williamsburg county in September, 191ft, my best efforts have been directed toward! all concerned. In November, a letter was sent to every teacher containing Christmas ideas and plans for carrying out these ideas. In January, a Suggestive Programme for Field Day was mailed to each school. In this programme, we gave suggestions for the work to be done Field Day, stressing the parts k that we saw so often omitted in the every day routine. This programme contained plans for Manual Train^ ing, that could be used according to grade in the rural school. All of these combined with the visits in the school rooms kept us in close r jf- \ / i r . X'. > ihe solution of the rural school problem. Too many typical oneteacher schools existed in the county. Consolidation has resulted in the hope of eliminating schools of this type. In three instances, wagons have been installed. The school term has been lengthened and special levies have been placed in all fifty districts with the excepion of eight, while the levies in a number of others have been increased. Three of the districts have been bonded for the purpose of erecting up-to-date brick school buildings, while in three others, plans are being discussed for additional rooms. In many instances, the equipment has been increased considerably and a number of new libraries have been placed in the county, while others have been added to. We helped locate the teachers for the term of '14-'15 and in this way improved the teaching force very much, giving us able co-operators where previous to this, co-operation was lacking. The home-made charts, perception, sewing, and phonic cards for primary work that were introduced, have bettered the teach ing methods in the primary grades. Heading for all grades has been especially stressed. Suggestions have been given and demonstrations made in reference to every phase of school work. A letter of welcome wa3 sent in September to every teacher and trustee in the county welcoming the teachers and containing suggestions for both. A programme for the opening day and plans for work during the year were recommended. Each month Lesson Plans were mailed?plans for diversifying the school room routine, for bringing in Nature Study, and for making the work pleasanter for ty the Williamsl jrs, &c., to be Furnished Gra or Brd Quan. j Cost per Case i G_& *>G| Qts.

The social life throughout the county has been greatly benefited by the Improvement Associations coupled with the Home-keepers' Clubs, but the betterment of the social life is only a part of what they accomplished. The work that the girls exhibited Field Day proves that the clubs mean that domestic science has been introduced in the schools, while the improvement of the grounds and buildings where associations have been organized shows that they aid financially as well as socially. The interest evinced Field Day demonstrated the fact that Williamsburg is awake on educational matters and wider awake than eyer before. Every school in the county then in session took some part in fl-io ovflrnicoc nf Hov dYPPnt four The School Fair and school work were splendid, but far better than 'either of these was the school spirit exhibited by all. We asked the Improvement Associations to take some steps in regard to compulsory education. One district has petitioned for the enforcement of this law and we hope that thi3 petition is the beginning of compulsory education for the whole county. My work in Williamsburg county has been pleasant indeed. The hospitality and kindness of its people cannot be equaled, but better than the hospitality and kindness is the progressive spirit that is growing and will in the course of time place Williamsburg in the foremost ranks in the educational march. Mamie McLees, Supervising Teacher. Violations of the Sunday Law. Editor County Record:? 1 would like to enquire through your paper whether we have any Sunday laws in this State or not? If so, does camping and fishing in the streams of this State on Sunday violate this Sunday law? If it is not asking too much of you, will you please publish the Sunday law if we have any, and oblige. Very respectfully, J T Frierson. Mouzons, S C, June 28, 1915. In volume 2, chapter 25 of the Criminal Code of South Carolina, 1912, will be found under the caption: "Non-observance of the Lord's Day, and Disturbing Religious Worship," the law relative to the various violations and the penalties precribed. Section 70G, which we give below, probably applies to such cases as our enquirer relates. The section reads: "Public sports prohibited on the Lord's Day. No public sports or pastimes, as bearbaiting, bull-baiting, football playing, horse-racing, interludes or common plays, or other games, exercises, sports or passtimes such as hunting, shooting, chasing game, or fishing shall be used on the Lord's Day by any person or persons whatsoeyer; and every person or persons offending in any of the premises shall, burg County Di 1 Dispensaries for Quart* or Drum Cost Price per ints \?

Two thousand years ago another Governor washed his hands of a case and turned over a Jew to a mob. For two thousand years that Governor's name has been accursed. If today another Jew were lying in his grave because I had failed to do my duty I would all through life find his blood on my hands and would consider myself an assassin through cowardice." upon conviction, be deemed guilty of a misdemeanor, and be subject to a fine not to exceed fifty dollars, or imprisonment not to exceed thirty days." There is no law against camping on Sunday if such is not in violation of the trespass laws. 1 spensary Board ;r Ending Sep. 30,1915 Selling Price per 4 Pint. ;G&HG Quarts Pints])Q Tts .1% - - 60 % 35 20 11% 60 35! 20 11% 60 35 20 11% 60 35 20 4 $2 00 j i io ;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;; 1 2 25 .ZZ.! ! 1 20 . 2 00 ; 1 10 Ll% | 60 35i 20 12 7-24 1 25 65 35 18% 1 00 50 25 [9 19-24 1 00 551 30 13 1 75 90 50 >7 1-12 1 50 75i 40 >2 19-48 ... 1 10 60! 35 [8 3-4 1 (<01 55| 30 112-3 11 150 100 60 18 3-4 1 001 rM 30 19 11-16 ! 1 00i 5o 30 17 1 00 i 5") 30 j 50 !! 1 25 i. 1 25 ! 50 50 22 11-12 :7ZZ 1 051 601 30 17 i 1 00 55 30 20 5-6 ! 1 10 60 35 22 11-12 ! 1 00 55 30 25 25-48 i 1 3u 70 40 , 25 15 it 10| State of Ohio, City of Toledo, 1 __ Lucas County, 1 ss* Frank J.

XXX One of the largest single captures of liquor made in Charleston since the sloop load was confiscated was made Sunday, when constables discovered and seized 64 barrels of whiskey containing a total of 210 gallons, besides some case goods. The liquor, it is said, was found under a house up town. XXX The high position in naval affairs of the nation now occupied by two South Carolinians is evidenced in the naming of two officers from this State on the "secretary's advisory council" of the navy, appointed last Thursday. The two members are Rear Admiral Victor Blue of Marion, chief of the bureau of navigation, and Rear Admiral Samuel McGowan of Laurens, chief of the bureau of supplies and accounts. XXX The jury commissioners of Charleston countv have been invited by Gov Richard I Manning to appear in Columbia to confer with him today. It is thought that the object of the Governor in having the commissioners visit him is to discuss the recent action of the Charleston county grand jury in refusing to indict the proprietors of blind tigers, against whom bills were presented at the recent term of court of general sessions. XXX The* Dominion freight liner Armenian flying the British flag and carrying mules from Newport News, Va, to England, was torpedoed and sunk Monday night by the German submarine U-38 off iCornwall, England,and nearly a score of American muleteers are reported lost.
