Clayton Rivers, Jr.) The Teachers* Association of Colleton County held its fifth monthly meeting, March 7, 1936 at the Colleton County Training j school. At the beginning the supervis- 1 * < or came before the group and along with the -teachers she took a retrospective account of the year's vfork thus far. It was clearly seen that the work dene in this county during the term is and has been of a very high type. This l*uecess has been contributed in a major sense to the new text-book Rental System which has been made possible by our county su-: perintendent. The group meetings, originated lit v 1110 VVUIIVJ uy \J Ul OUJICI VI5UI , Mrs. Thelnia Miller Odom, were also a major topic of discussion. These meetings were rated as having been highly successful and ultimately beneficial. The prizes for the sales of Xmas Seals were also awarded. After a .long interval of analyzing and | debating, the meeting was climaxed with passage of the- Hammitt Resolution which is in substance that the school in this county who .would-first -match-the-l'efund from the State Teacers' Association would without question obtain the said refund for its building improvement. , : The majority of our four-month schools have been given six months this J-ear. They are closing now.This local body gratefully acknowledges the hearty'cooperation of these teachers and schools who have labored amidst so many hardships and yet have been-able-to triumph over some of the "tradi* icnal impediments.
