This with the continued good market will make the net returns very acceptable.to bur people. I. : And now that cotton picking is over, we are ready to begin schools. The lower end of Cape Fear township will conduct 4 schools this term, Brickhaven' Corinth, Truth and Cross, all will be. two teacher schools except Cross which is only one teacher. Seven teachers in all, enough to enable Mr. Thompson to estab lish a teachers reading circle here within the community. Three years ago this same community supported only 3 teachers and only one teacher schools at that. A jump from 3 teachers to 7 teachers in a rural community in 3 years. We look upon this1 march of progress with pride but we think that there m is a much greater opportunity just ahead that should naturally follow. How ,bout consolidating these schools.
