Weekly Yeoman and lIERA LI at DR. MAYO'S LECTURE. Universal Education-Does it Pay? And How ?-The Kind of Teachers Needed -What Education is.. Rev. A. D. Mayo, D.D., of Boston, has delivered lectures in several see tions of the State on the subject of education. Monday, in company with Superintendent of Education Thomp son, he visited Newbcrry, and deliv- f ered a lecture two hours long in Thes pian Hall to a large and appreciative audience. The Doctor makes no ora torical display, and he advances no novel ideas on the subject of educa- t tion-; but there is a charm about his I mann,er, and he says things in such a I pleasant and entertaining way that I two hours seem short to an audience. As evidencing the interest taken in r: t universal education, he mentioned the fact that New York City spends $7,- t 000,000 on her schools; that Rich 311ond, which only a few years ago I ,spent nothing for this purpose, nowr spends $80,000 annually; that Char leston gives proportionately wore to wards universal education than the d wajvrity of cities in the country. V The lecturer undertook to show that c universal education pays; and, then, bow it pays. He insisted that the 1tate should asspre to every child the opportunity of an elementary education by establishing elementary schools, y and to superior intelligence a superior r education by means of higher schools. He recommends primary schools for 0 saiall children, and above that a graded s school in every towu,where instruction C0 is given in the higher branches such b as fit one for college. Upon the mat-. ter of seleoting teachers he laid much n stress, and his advice should be im- r pressed upon every school board ip the r country. No teacher should be em- e ployed because he or she is somebody's c sister or cousin or brother or aunt or daughter; but solely upon the ground e of fitness for the successful training of a the mind and character of children. p Persons who are uufit for anything else are too often employed as teach- V ers. It should be remembered that schools are not for the benefit of b teachers, but for the benefit of the ' children. A school where the teacher is thoroughly 4tted for his place will a trvic the intelligence, the moral and religious character and the manners of the children. Universal education pays by making f, a r9e manhood and womanhood. If 0 children grow up ip inorance they become the prey of the dawagogue. s and the.safety of the State is imper. a iled. 1t pays by buirding up intelli gence and character in the citizen, v which is necessary to success in life, 0 and is the corner-stone of the republic. I: The State is like a family ; if a family i be surrounded by ignorant and vicious o neighbors there is constant danger that the members will be brought down to the same level. And so of a commu nity, or .a t4te. The only safety to the State is to begin at the bottom 1 and work upwards- He illustrated n this idea by a house whose cellar is e sunk in the damp earth and impreg nated with malaria, while the rooms above are nicely carpeted and furnish ed. The -malaria does not confine t itself to the cellar. but works its way , through the walls into the elegant t apartments, carrying disease and death throughout the whole building. The t remedy is to put screws under the I foundation and to raiss up the whole house, cellar and all, into sunshine ~ and a healthy atmosphere. t: Dr. Mayo paid a high tribute to the a South, and closed with the patriotic f hope that through universal education t a grand future would soon open up ~ for the whole country. The lecture M'onday night will up doubt give new impetus to education e in this community. At the close of the lecture the au- e dience, on motion of Professor Ho!- 5 land, returned thanks by a rising vote a to Dr. Mayo. Tuesday morning Dr. Mayo deliv ered an instructige address to the stu, e dents of Newberry College in the Col- 2j lege Chapel, on the subjoct of educa tion. Education, he claimed, consistsr of three things ; 1, to know something, 2, to do something, and, 3, to be somebody. As to the first, to know is not simply to rememnber what onea has heard and read. There is toor much of mere book learning in all the s professions. That training is needed I which looks through books and words I to the thing itself, and studies that. One should know how to use a book, so that he can readily separate the chaff from the wheat. For the want of this knowledge of things the mass of mankind is living in a world of I iental shadows. As to the second' one may know a great deal and yet be able to do nothing. The schools should teach self-reliance and self help The question the world asks a young graduate is not whether he is cltuared, or how much he knows about his books, but What can yog do ? Can you do skilled work ? The men who succeed everywhere are the skilled men. He dwelt at length on the third head, and urged the importance of I training the young in such a way as< 1to develop the peculiar faculties with which natsre ha4 en4owed them. NoawALK OPrsA.

We were in Charleston and about to return to the rural pastures and work for at home, when we were persuaded by ear. a friend to remain a day or two longer fail- to see Tony Denier's Humpty Dumpty, d in advertised to show in that city. Wait fme ing and listening to our friend's lively not description of what was in store, in the meantime. With reserved front seats au- we took position and the fun commenced :re- and continued, long, fast and furious, les, but we did not laugh one time.

We could not get up and the ghost of a smile it was all so inex plicable to him. In explanation of this, sent we seldom laugh, and the whole per >un- formance was such a continued round all of side-splitting comicalities that it was ally entirely too much for us to undertake. hall To say that we felt our friend's disap s in pointment barely ex presses our feelings. ays Next day, however, we did break out in re- short spasms of laughter as each scene han occurred to our mind, and our friend ess- was satisfied that the performance re rk's ceived so grimly was enjoyed neverther men less. rood ~fer OFFICE OF HAwES' OPEaa BousE, port BRIDGEPORT, 0055., Aug. 22nd, 18t ated Notwithstanding two strong companies lbplayed here immediately preceding, Col.

At the regular pneeting d to a week ago &~bidI was received from pear Mr. Win. B. Franklin to do the paving his with granite, he to furnish everything, l to at fifty cents per square yard. The ned Council have not yet decided to have the the work done. They seem disposed, udg- however, to undertake it, their idea be ing to do the work gradually, paving a men portion one year, another portion the 5 to next year, and so on until the work is per- completed. It would be a big under ~tise- taking, and would cost a pretty big and sum. To give some idea of the cost, laser we take, for instance, that portion ol Pratt Street included between Caldwell men and Adams Streets: it is 64 yards long onal by 61-2 wide-416 square yards; whick 000. at 50 cents would amount to $208. ailed The Council say that the actual cosl ares, would be much less than this, because and there would be a large saving of ex. pro- pense in hauling sand and other mate rial which it is now necessary to put or sh at the streets to keep them in a passabh thod condfton. hhen We seriously doubt whether it would aded be wise to incur any additional debt isio although there can be no dQubt that th< paving of the streets would greatly im ncil prove them. But it is better to havE ner- bad streets than to have had debts; and riers the town already has its hands full o .or- debt. vig >n of The Methodist Church at Prosperiy ding The Quarterly Conference of New .g 30 berry Circuit, Methodist E.
