We need the co-operation of the
parents in our school work. With
this end in view, we desire to call a
meeting of the parents and teachers
of kingstree for Tuesday afternoon,
March 21, at the school building, for
the purpose of organizing a Parents'
and Teachers' association. Every
parent is especially urged to attend.
State Superintendent of Education
J E Swearingen,County Superintendent
J G McCullough and Rev D A
Phillips were visitors at our school
last Thursday.
We shall have holiday Thursday
and Friday, as the State Teachers'
association meets in Columbia on
those dates.
The high school boys' chorus favored
us with their first public number
in chapel Tuesday.
This school will not enter Field
Day contests this year. This decision
arises from no feeling of ill will, but
from the fact that Kingstree h^s
won for four successive years, and
we feel that this measure which we
% are taking is the only generous one.
Our superintendent and teachers, as
well as the people of Kingstree.stand
ready to do all in tneir power 10
make the coming Field Day a success.
The Wee Nee Literary society held
its regular meeting last Friday afternoon
with Mr Phillips in the
chair. The query for debate was,
"That all merchantmen should be
armed for defensive purposes." The
judges rendered their decision in favor
of the affirmative.
Rev D A Phillips attended the
chapel exercises Monday morning.

Mrs J A Joyner Dead.
Mrs C R Thomas was summoned
to Barnwell county last Thursday by
a telegram announcing the death,

Joyner. The dead body of Mrs
Joyner was discovered lying across
the bed in her room witn a snocgun
wound through the heart and an
empty gun nearby. Notes said to
have, been left by the deceased lead
the Coroner to the belief that the

hands.
Mrs Joyner was 24 years of age
and was married to Mr Joyner about
nine years ago. The deceased spent
several weeks here with Mrs Thomas
last summer.
