Senator Sherard Writes Supt. Fel

That a county school board fund of

BOARD FUND
[PATED IN SIGHT
this purpose. Senator Sherard writes
that State Superintendent of Educa
tion J. E. Swcurtngen tells him he
sees no reason why Anderson County
should not come in this year for as
large a share ot thc State Hoard fund
as she received last year.
Fund of *7,.'?fm.
Anderson County received last year
from thc State hoard fund something
like $4,200. Senator Sherard writes
that the State superintendent knows
of no reason why the county should
not r?celvo an equal sum this year.
Mr. Sherard goes on to state that the
delegation had decided on a special
lovy of ono quarter mills fdr the coun
ty '."lard fund, which is just half the
amount of the levy asked by Mr. Fel
ton before he knew that there, was any
possibility of tho county receiving this
year anything from the State board
fund. Mr. Felton stated yesterday
that a special levy -ot one-quarter
mill will bring in something like $3,
300. Adding to this amount the sum
of $4,200-which ls thc amount sc
cured last year from the State board
fund and which will probably be se
cured this year-it will be seen that
tho Andorson County board will be
nrovided with r, school board fund of
I7.30C.
Senator HhrrsrdV Letter.
Tho letter to Senator Sherard to
Mr. Felton ts as follows: .,
Columbia. 8. C.. February &. 1915.
Mr. J. B. Felton.'Anderson, S. C.
Dear Mr. Felton: Our delegation
met this afternoon for the purpose of
revising our county supply bill, and
we have provided'on extra school tax
of ono fourth Ol a mill, as you will ob
serve from reeding the enclosed draft
I had a talk with Mr. Swearingen
before our meeting, and there is every
prospect thst you will he ahlo to get
as much for the appropriation for the
supoort of needy schools as you sue?
coed cd tn getting in 1914. Out ot the
$45.000 appropriated you secured for
Anderson County approximately $4.
200, or nearly one-tenth bf the en
tire fund. This was a splendid show
ing and a record very much to your
credit.- Now. if you succeed as well
In 1915 as you did Isst year-and I
sm told by Mr. Swearingen that there
ls no reason why you should not
you will bc able to get about $4.000
sod In addition the sum derived from
the lr>vy we hsye given you. which
will v rorid e a total vt a iii tie more
than soven thoussnd dollars.
I have framed this special levy in
the supply hill so thst the money de
rived from lt csu be expended under
the direction of the county hnnrrt of
education. I want them to have suf
belent latitud* in the distribution of
this fund to use it where if is most
needed. I am willing to leece lt to
their good Judgment.
This may not be ell that you would
iUre to have, but lt is gt least ? step
rorward and will give to the county
more funds than it has enjoyed here
tofore During my term'of four years
In the service ot the county and State
t hope to contribute some small part
to the building up of the public
schools, and 1 can assure you always
>f my hearty sympathy and coopera
tion in all that yon may do for the
aspro'emsnt of the schools in Ander
son County.
With kind regards. I am.
Very truly yours.
J. L. SHERARD.

NO IMPROVEMENT IN
THE MAIL SERVICE
For Anderson Possible Unless
Schedules Are
Changed.
Unless there ls u change of schedule
on the Ulue Ridge railroad so as to
bring a train into Anderson earlier
than the first train for the day is now
arriving, there is no chance of Im
proving the mall service for Anderson,
according to Chief Clerk J. A. Metts
of the railway mall, service, with
headquarters in Charleston, who ar
rived in Anderson yesterday morning
from Greenville to make an Investiga
tion of the mall service this city is
receiving at present.
Complaints as to the lateness of the
first mail for the day in ari i-ning in
Anderson was made some time ugo
through the chamber of commerce.
The chamber of commerce had sug
gested that the government might
make arrangement with th? Piedmont
& Northern interests whereby mail
might be brought into the city earlier
in this way.
After investigating the matter Mr.
Metts stated that were mall' brought
Into the city In thc morning by the in
terurban car? it would arrive hore
only six minutes ahead of the train
that now brings i*. The interurban
car leaves Greenville at 6:40. o'clock
and arrives her^ at 8:25 o'clock. Thu
train from Seneca which brings 'ho
morning mail arrives here at 8:HI
o'clock or "Jv st six minutes after thc
Interurban train.
Mr. Metts stated in the first place
tho interurban lines will not hdul
mall at thc present price - paid fur
hauling lt, which, ls 3 cents a ml'e.
Tilts would entail upon tho Interurban
pe -?/le the expense of providing a
messenger to convey tho mail to and
from tho station and tho postoffloe.
The interurban pcoplo have been. Ap
proached upon the matter, but have
rein ed to handle mail at this price.
Before leaving the city yesterday
afternoon on his return to Greenville.
Kr. Metts took occasion to speak in
very complimentary terms of the work
of Mr. John R. Cochran, who ls to re
tire soon as postmaster. "The .man
who' gets the Job of postmaster hcri\"
said Mr. Metts, "will alt down In n
soft seat, r mean by that bc will tako
hold of a machine that ls well oiled
and running smooth. There is. not u
more efficient postmaster in the South
than Mr. Cochran, and he has an or
ganization on this floor that ls unex
celled by that In any poatofflce of tho
country. He has a wonderful exocu
Llve ability and this has been used In
perfecting an organization in, this
post office that is about as perfect as
me could be. Mr. Cochran has been
>f great help to, the postal authorities
In the matter of readjusting its mail
HT vice so as to flt changes in sch ed
iles. He bas always secured advance
information relative to such matters
tod sent lt to us in ample time to al
ow us to make tbe necessary adju^t
nentfl without inconvenience to the
service. Durlna Mr. Cochran's looa
ulmlnlstratlon he bas never made a
ecommendation to the department for j
mprovement in the service but what
t waa approved and carried out."
