Last year the patrons of the Pick ens High Schodl came face to face with their schcol problem, met ii fairly, and as was expected did them selves proud. As a result of a $12, 000.00 bond issue being floated the congested conditions that existed in th school have been wiped away and become past history. Today all faces are turned to the future and the pros peet is bright. An addition has -been built to the old builiding that makes the high school a credit not only to the town and county of Pickens, but to the State as well. This addition consists of six class rooms and a spacious auditorium with a seating capacity of about 500. Water and sewerage have been installed, which makes the sanitary conditions 100 per cent bet ter. About one acre of land has been purchased for additional play ground, which grct vly helps this phase of the schoel work. With the playground space now owned by the scho-cl district a splendid athleti field can be had sufficiently large for a track meet or a football fiell, and with the material that is at present in the high shocl there is no reason why the peo'Plc of P:ck ens ;hculd not see someu very inter esting athletic sports. One of the main factors requiring 'tne enlarging of the Pickens school is the' influx of outside school chil dren. Last year there wei e approx imatcly 40 country children taking advantage of the Pickens school. while this number has about doubled for this year. This is very encour aging, for with the influx of these children comes their parents with the'r produce and trade. So the mu toal bentfit that is derived from this condition, is most satisfactory. The standard of the school has been raistd. A scientific and clarsi cil coulse of stu(dy is cIfer-el that i. 55 g(e(l as en Le found in th, State. Next year domestic scienctI and agriculture will probably be ad ded, thereby strengthening the course of study still more. At pres ent when a child fin'slhes the Pich ens high school he is emls itled to a State certificate to teach. provided he attends a sutmm(.r school of six weeks. The school this year is- under the management of Supt. F. W. Simpson. He is a man thor oughly familiar with schocl work, and with his com ptent corps of teachers this promi ses to be the best year in the history of the Pickens High School. The town is indeed awake on the school question and is requiring one of the best schools possible. A parent-teachet asseciation has been organized. and the ladies of the town are backing the teachers in every way possible. They arc to be con gratulated on this progi 'tss:ve step. The credit for the building of the addition and other substantial im provements, at so reasonable a price, is largely due to the splendid man agement of the Chairman of the Board of Trustees, Mr. W. L. Ma theny, who was ably ass'sted by Mr. R. E. Yongue, another member of the board. Mr. Yongue being a con tractor saved for the school the usual contractor's profit. Mr. Matheney and Mr. Yongue are to be congratu lated. What wve have just accomplished means a solid fo'undation for further dlcyclop~ment. In spite of hard times, the work of the school cannort be curtailed with wisdom and sa,fety. Public education in all Its forms is one of the greatest needls of Pick ens. Out' boys andl girls ar'e our greatest joy and our greatest asset. They are worthy of the best and we cannot afford to give them less. HONOR ROLL PICKENS MILL SCHOOLJ.
