Telephone, loom and long distance, No. 112. *- . Entered at the postoftlee at Fort Mill. 8. C., as mall matter of the second class THURSDAY, AUGUST 10, 1922. The National Education convention, which has just closed its annual meeting in Boston, emphasized many matters of importance to the country regarding the teaching of its youth. Among these none can be considered of greater importance than the increasing demand in rural communities for a higher standard of education than has obtained in the past. The "little red school house" of * song and story has served its day and gone out of date. With good roads ancf adequate transportation facilities, good schools, with first class 'Miliinmoiit on.l ....... ?l - - *? : i aim |ll ujicnj' I ruillt'd teachers, can be made available foi any community, no matter how small. j The average farm family feeds three city families besides itself. This is figured out by census experts who find that of the nation's 41 million and more workers only 11 millions are engaged in agriculture. A near-sighted farmer might look upon the city people aN parasites, and to a certuin extent they may he. But without city folks the farmer would have 110 market for his Burplus products. Muny of the things the furmer could not g,'. along without are made in the cily. His furniture, rugs, clothing, automobiles, shoes, wire fencing, musical instruments umi other devices come from the city. It is a fair exchange between city and country except when farm and city prices are out of balance as is often the case.The climate of England has been changed by the construction of a railroad" 011 the east coast ol Florida, according to John liar riNon, a British scientist, who lias been giving the matter close ^ study and investigation for several years. The course of the gulf stream has been changed, writes Mr. Harrison, by the construction of the railway, 70 miles long, from Homestead to Key "West. Although some portions ? .. - - ' 01 tins railway are const rue led en piles, a great and increasing pert of it consists of solid einbunkment, and the whole effect is to narrow considerably on its western side the Florida channel, thiough which the gulf stream flows, and thus at once concentrate the warm waters of that stream and to give them a somewhat more easterly course. Mr. Harrison says the center of the northern branch of the gulf stream formerly struck the west coast of England while there is frost in the west coast of Scotland, but it now runs south of Ireland and straight up the Eng lish and Bristol channels. This, be argues, accounts for the excessively warm summers in England during the last few years, since the railroad was completed. There are excessive heat waves in the south of England while, there is frost in Glasgow. "Hie early bird catches the worm/' If yon are a worm, don't get up early.
