O~ :ecourt of a threatened epidem
ic of inuc:ia, Mt. Zirn, by order o^
the bord, 'ctin: on the advice o.
physicians , has closed until after ine
Christmas holidays. A badly heated
%uilding, together with inclement
weather made the risk of pneumonia
',oo great. Health is worth more
than books.
Teachers and pupils are preparin,,
for the greatest festival of the Chris
tian year. Mt. Zion offers all go3l
wishes to each and every one. May
this Christmas be a time of good
cheer and thankfulness-and for how
. much do the people of Mt. Zion have
*to be thankful? For life and health;
--4ePLfood and raiment and shelter; for
friends; for churches; for schools
'or everything that makes life worth
while! We are blessed beyond meas
ure, and if we have received freely,
shall we not give freely ? Christina;
ought to be a time for giving not less
than getting. Mt. Zion cannot wish
a better thing than that each of her
children shall make possible "a merry
Christmas" for some one else.
The sixth grade had a perfect at
tendance for the third month of the
schpool year. Not one child was ab
sent or tardy. We congratulate the
grade. Perfection is always admira
ble. How many pupils will (10 like
wise for the fourth month ?
Influenza prevented the third grade
giving the play in preparation for
which they and their teacher, Miss
Maggie B. Turner, had worked so
hard. Everything was ready when
th~ orders for closing school came.
play will be given when school
opens, andl Mt. Zion asks the peo
ple of Winsboro to attend it. This
entertainment was a big thing in the
eyes of the third grade, and their
disappointment was very great, We
know that we can depend on Winn
boro to make a success of the play
when it is finally given.
~eboys an~d girls from the vari
~olleges are beginning to "filter
in" for Christmas. We are glad to
see them every one. All are singing
the praises -of their respective col
leges-and that is as it should be.
May we not hope, however, that they
will not forget that Mt. Zion made it
possible for them to go to college?
Mt. Zion is entitled to their first love
and loyalty. She took them when
they were six years old1 ~nd kept them
until they were se. ente mn. She tau!sh:
them to re ta is. open~ed to their
young eyes the broad field of k:noG~
edge. The colleges may be their
guardlians; Mt. Zion is more--sh'e is
their mother. We do not ask them
to love their colleges leys. We :ask
them to, love Mt. Zion more.
And .se sp;etk eot to students alone
but to men aind women everyvw0ere.
Why are pe9ople .o willing to help
the collegre ani so careless o;

whatsoever. *"It seems," did we say2
.ay, we meant to say, "It is!" No
cody can gainsay it. The comniuo
schools have a right to a larger shar
of the love of the people than tne:
have received. Their services have
merited it. Is he who nurtures the
tender plant less a gardener than he
who cares for the flower alone.
There never was a rose without a
lant--and the sturdiness of the plant
determines the beauty of the flowe;.
The common schools break the
ground, plant the seeds and care for
the tender sprouts; the colleges de
velop the blossom. Which renders
the greater service?
"They also serve who stand and
wait."

GOOD POULTRY AT CHESTER
FIELD
Clemson College, Dec. 13. That
South Carolina poultrymen are makt
Ing rapi strides in breeding high
I quality poultry has been well illus
trated at the various poultry show:;
and fair this year, and one of .the
best of these illustrations was the
Rhode Island Red show by the reccnt
Chesterfield fair. The Aboultry at
this show was judged by Mr. W. H.
Cord, of Manchester, Conn., a note I
authority, who praised the show very
highly. Here 'is what Judge Cord
sa'id about the Reds:
%This show ranks with Boston- and
with New York. It is better than
Syracuse, and I doubt if there is an
other county in the United States
that has as many Reds as fine in col
or, shape, and size."
"Everybody is anxious at the pres
ent time to know where to buy breed
ing stock, hatching eggs and bab"
chicks," says N. R. Mehrhof, Exteni
sion Poultry Husbandman, in com
menting on Judge Cord's statement.
"The beginners and the experienced
poultry raisers are making plans for
the coming year; and each one who
hopes to be successful should buy
only from reliable breeders, for to be
successful we must start right."
"But it is not necessary for South
Cart 'ans to go out of the state for
googl poultry stock, as is proved .by
Judge Cord's testimony about Reds.
The same is true of other breeds. We
have good stock in many counties.
The Extension Service is in position
to put all who desire foundation
stock, eggs, or chicks in touch with
our own breeders."
