Enrollment Decline In Colored Schools Figures just made available show a slight decrease iri opening day en rollment for the twenty-three color ed schools in this county. The de crease is 4.6 per cent of the last year enrollment and is just one-half per cent larger than the loss reported by the white schools. Whatever factors inf'Knced the decrease in the white school enrollment apparently were the same encountered by the color ed schools. Fifteen of the schools reported a decrease in their opening day en rollment ranging from one to thirty. I Seven reported gains, and one had no change. The Williamston colored high school, with 145 enrolled, re ported a decrease of 38 pupils, while Parmele, the only other colored high school in the county, reported a jump from 121 to 125. A comparison of the 1942 and 1943 opening-day enrollment for the ele mentary schools follows: Smith vviek White Oak Springs Williams, Lower Williamston Woolards Whichard-James !

A fairly complete survey ton from all the districts over the week-end. With the appointment of 22 can vassers in the Robersonville district yesterday, the personnel for handl ing the drive is about complete in the county. The general public is earnestly urged to cooperate with the app roximately 100 canvassers and do everything in their power to put the drive across. Realizing that the drive is coming a bit soon for most farmers in this county, leaders of the campaign point out that a fanner may go to his bank, make a small deposit and bor row the remainder of the money and buy the bond now. The interest will be offset, and the purchase can be effected without interest cost to the buyer. Farmers are urged to look 1 into that matter now, for purchases made after September 30 will not be counted in the drive, j Dr W. R. Burrell, local Baptist minister who was in the armed serv ,ees last war and who is ready and | willing to call i in support of the present w^^^ras ’ the first canvasser to report locally late yesterday. Making about six or eight calls, he sold around $3,800 worth of bonds, $1,600 worth to one family, $1,500 worth to another fam ily and the smaller denominations to others. Quite a few people reported directly to the banks and made their purchases. Reports from other counties tell of marked progress in the bond drive. The town of Washington yes terday sold between $400,000 and half a million. Greenville is expect ing to pass the one million mark to day, and other counties are making progress. The need for buying bonds is best expressed by a treasury statement just released, placing the cost of the war at $3,500 per second. In an effort to have every person in (he county participating in the campaign, many landlords are mak ing arrangements for their tenants to buy bonds. Marlin County people should re member that as long as fighting men are dying they can’t afford to stop buying bonds. “Will what we are doing measure up to what they’re doing?’’ -t, >• ' ting tonight is eager* Fire Bug On The Loose This Week Piompted by pure devilment, a fire bug threatened property and bad the local fire department busy for a short while early last Tues day evening. Three wastepaper bins in the backlots were fired one after the other, the firemen going to the one back of the -Woolard Furniture Company for the third time in re cent weeks. Two of the bins were al most burned up, the fire back of the furniture store damaging the win dow frames and smoking the store room of the Eagle dime store. It was necessary for the firemen to lay a big hose line to the fire which was about to spread through the store room windows. No great damage was done.
