Attention is again called to the ar ticle, "In Schoolroom Walls," which will appear in Sunday's issue, of tho Intelligencer. Dealing as it does with education and the history ot the sohools In Anderson, lt will be ex tremely Interesting to every true An dersonlan. Anderson vouity is now one of the leading countle/, in the state tn the . advancement rU education, containing ? ninety-odd schools, with a total enroll ment of something over, 11,000 pupils. It leads in the number of rural school Improvement associations and has therefore been designated as tho ban ner county in this work. How waa all thia brought about? It hon taken time of course and in vhe early days the boy or girl that received '? an education had to work much harder . than those of today, when a school Is , within easy? reach of everyone In the county. Anyone who reads the article writ f ten by Mrs. Louise Ayer Vandlver will hr.vo a clearer conception of the ear lier school dsjrs and why today An derson is one of the foremost vduca \ tlonal cities in South Carolina. Tho article will appear In tomor row's issue of this paper. EVENBODT AT Ti!? TSNx. We wonder what a stranger would have tb-/Jght had ha happened to pass through Anderson yesterday morning .just about ll o'clock, when the morn ing aervlce at the McLendon tent wea over. There was absolutely "nothing doing" In the business section of the city between the hours of 10 and ll o'clock, but on von e who looked up towards tbs postofflce when the serv ices were over could have seen that /' - re bad been something doing some I f* 9 t * ?K M' '4? ?'c!ock yesterday -5*st F'oar ??~?*-? Sfcaws - ?ttra n sage, Sjflar* R?ba, Bo Nice layout et Fresh Fi fTIf would have been impossible for any man to create the interest or deep concern which be has done in that length of time. Every man and wo man in Anderson uppears to be deeply Interested In thc services and the larg est attendance on record was that of last night. There Is no telling what will happen In Anderson before these meetings are over. MR, IHEBTA. Closer contact with Victoriano Hu ?rta, late of Spain and more remotely af Mexico, has served to remove cer tain uri?&*"oruble impressions of that gentleman. As a New York business j man and a I^ong Island commuter, he iloesn^t seem by any means the cold blooded assassin that most Americans have pictured him. And if ho ever tried to drink up all the brandy In Mexico City, he has shown no dispo sition to tackle a similar job in New York. At his Forest Hills home, surround ed by his family and retainers, Gen. Huerta hasn't yet stood anybody up against the garago to be shot. He hasn't assassinated any of the neigh bors, or robbed any hon roosts. His activity is limited, for the moBt part, to running the lawn mower and digging in the garden. His favorite recreation is scanning the stars through a tele scope. This terror of Mexico and late enoray o? tho United States love? the ?tara, and is an astronomer of no mean ability. Gen. Huerta bas an office among the big buildings of lower Manhattan. He ls a civil engineer .and is said to be a good one. He took the engineering | courso l? the Mexican military college, and was graduated with honor in five years matead of the usual eight. His military map of Mexico ls said to bc j the best in existence. It's usually like that-when you come to know a bad man he isn't so bad after all. Anyhow, if Gen. Huerta was as monstrously wicked a Mexican as we pictured him, he's been, so far, n very decent American. SCIENTIFIC MENUS. A restaurant established for the uoe of New York department ot health em ployes exhibits certain Innovations in Une with the most modern dietary theories. Every article on the bill of fare has Its food values carefully fig ured out and indicated on the menu card. A patron who wants roast beef, for example, finds by glancing at the card that a twenty-cent portion will weigh four ounces and that by taking it into his system he will absorb 27 grams of protein-the one Indlsponsabe food element-and a total of 460 calories, or heat-and-energy units. A club luncheon ls set forth in this fashion: Cream of asparagus soup, 5 cents- I one-half pint, 230 calories, 7 grams j protein. Salade a la sante, 8 cents-370 cal ories, 2 grams protein. Glass of milk, 4 cents-7 ounces, 160 calories. 7 grama protein. Apple pie (one-sixth) with cheese (one cu. Inch), 6 cents-39o calories, 8 grams protein. Whole wheat bread (2 slices) with butter (one-half ounce)-120 calories, 5.5 grams protein. Total. 22 cents-1,410 calories, 33.5 grams protein. Aong with these specifications, the menu cards contains explanations of tho scientific dietary system, so that if any customer doesn't get hui money's worth of calories and things lt's his own fault. If this system ever becomes the rule, .nero will probably be a big change In patrons' orders, especially In the fashionable restaurants. It's likely Uiat the ordinary cittiens when he finds that tb* more fancy and expens ive a dish ls, the less nourishment there ls In lt, will declare for the simple Ute. And yet, yon never, can tell. It may be a long time before the public ls content simply to buy food, rather than trimmings, elaborate service and music. * ? . Big-Cotton Stalk.

Shannon is interested in the estab lishment of a roller mill In Chester, and we ht>pe that business men of the community will assure him of their Interest and support, as seven or eight times as much wheat has been produced in the county this year as any ofher year In quite a while, and the farmers will become dis couraged if there is no convenient mill for the grinding of their crop. This is a matter that is of vita! in terest and concern to Chester, and we hope that the business interests will endeavor to persuade Mr. Shan non to take the step.-The Reporter. Just Lots of Graft*. Tho farmers of Sumter count/ who gave heed to the advice so generally given last fall to plant more small grain, have now harvested ilieir crop? of wheat, oats and rye and many of them have on hand a surplus over and above what will l>e needed for farm use this year. The problem now is to find a market for this grain. The homo grown oats is heavier and bet ter quality than the feed oats sold on the local market by grain dealers and should command nt least an equal price. Tho local feed dealers buy a good many car loads of western oats and If they want to encourage crop diversification they can do so by ob taining their supply of oats from Sumter county farmers.-Sumter Item.

SELLERS, Acting Director ot Bunday Behool Course cf Moody Bible Institute, Chicago.) LESSON FOR JUNE 27 REVIEW, SECOND QUARTER. READING LESSON-Paalm 78:05-71 GOLDEN TKXT-I myself will be the shepherd of my sheep.-KzeVIel Zi:U. Tho upproxiraato time covered by the?e lessons ls from 1091 or 1078 B. C. to 1035 or 1023 B. C., somewhere between 50 and 60 years. The moat prominent character ls David.. He is related to every lesson, except the first, elthf s an actor or an author. Thia fact gives us a center about which to revolve our review. By mak ing assignments a week in advance a chapter summary of David's life can be presented as follows: Chapter I, Saul's disobedience, and ita relation to David. II, The secluded shepherd boy and Samuel. Ill, The boy and the giant. IV. The musician and the king. V, The boy and his friend. VJ, Tho young man in exile. VII, The young man as King. VIII, The. king and the ark. IX, The king's great sin. The re malning lessons will make excellent reading matter to be interspersed with the presentation of the various chap ters and we may cali the whole pro gram "From Obscurity to Power." An excellent suggestion ts made in "Peloubet's Selected Notes," of mak ing a large chart ruled vertically into five columns and horlzcitally into twelve spaces, one tor each lesson. Label the vertical columns respective ly, place, characters, intervening events, key verse, and principal teach ing. Then bave each ot the sixty dif ferent spaces assigned to classes or to individuals who will each In turn, be ginning at the upper left hand corner with lesson one, fill In the different spaces in order until the whole chart is covered. If a blackboard ls used these facts can be written within the different squares,'otherwise care must be taken to have the facts written up on previously prepared pieces of card board, or paper, each io correspond to the dimensions of the various squares on the large chart. As In the case of the "chapter revisw." previous sug gested. Lessons U?+ XI and XII, being from the Psalms, may be read and no further attention be given to them so far as the chart is. concerned. For the younger classes a good story teller can give a running story of the lessons which will prove highly interesting. To drill the school or the separate classes on some of the outstanding facts of the booka of First and Second Sa mufti and tho Psalms will prove a profitable expenditure of time. For illuBtru>y/rt: Who are the heroes of First Samuel? Of Second Samuel? What chief events in the life of David aro recorded in First Samuel? In Sec ond Samuel? Where ia the record ot Da*id ssdColiath? ' f K running commentary ls desired thvj following suggestions may help: Lesson I. Saul L? set aside, hence the^need of David, "a man after God's own heart." Lesson II. Samuel's choice set aside and David the youngest son ls select ed to be king. Lesson III. The wonderful shepherd paalm which ls a "testimony" of David tho shepherd king. (Have the school recite it in concert.) Lesson IV. A venture of faith. Je hovah's watchful caro over David, and the downfall of u mighty foe. .Lesson V. Saul's vain attempt to slay David. The development ot hatred, the protecting care over those iffho "put their trust in Jehovah." Lesson VI. The love of David and Jonathan, an Illustration of the sur rendered life and a type of the love for ns of one who has said, "Hence forth I coll you not servants but friends." Lesson V?I. David's generosity to bia persistent persecutor. David did not do to Saul what Saut tried to do to David. Though selected to become the king, David recognised in Saul one of God's chosen men and patiently bided his time till God should remove this recreant, disobedient servant and place him in the position of power. Lesson VOX David exalted to ba king, first over Judah and later over the entire nation. Also the record of his shrewd manner of making friends with all of the tribes ot Israel. Lesson IX. David established Jeru salem to be both' tho civic and . relig ious center of the nation. His Joy in worship and In God's service points forwari to our "chief shepherd." Lesi on X. David waa after all only human. In the midst of hla Idle lux ury he succumbed to the allurement of temptation and committed an awful sin, an act that involved many others and made the. sam total one fearful to behold. How are the mighty fallen! The higher they are tho harder the tait i Let thia part of tba review consist of reading the psalms with but little, preferably ho, comment. If what has gone before has been prayerfully and vividly presented, comment on these two lessons la need less. They so clearly and cogently con nect tbs naives with David's lifo as to " Sa hw said, and th? hfr p9?&l?u?ai0 and ht* traut ta y of bl? personal rtenoa.

Mr. Lansing, >n the other bond, bop been chosen o succeed Mr. Bryan, on no other iccount than that of .th? quallfica lons which he possesses for the dis gorge of its duties. It would be diffi cult to cite another instance where in appointment of anything like >qual Importance has been made with such complete disregard of politics. It ls the war, of course, which he/. produced this significant change of at titude. "When Mr. Bryan was made secretary of state the world was at peace, with the exception of Mexico, ind it did not seem probable that my special diplomatic knowlege or 'il;ill would be needed In the post to which he was called. Today this knowledge and skill are absolutely essential; and it in because Mr. Lan sing is believed to possess bath in high that his nomination will give satis faction to the people of the United States of all parties. A few months ago he was unknown to Ino nation. Now be ls chosen" to occupy what is for the time being Its most important of fice with the exception only of the presidency itself. It is a remarkable example of the opportunity seeking the man. Hr, Lansing will have the chance to do his country great service. His task is fraught wjth many difflcul trcu mid hazards, but lt is one which should bring to the front tho very best that ls in any man. The whole fabric of International relationships is being rewoven and the secretary of state bf the United States bas the opportunity to prove himself a mas ter spinner. All that the public knows of Mr. Lansing has ?tended to croate a thoroughly favorable impres sion'of him. There will be the most general agreement that the"-appoint ment is in all the circumstances the best which President Wilson could have made; and if the good will of the American people can accomplish such a result, Mr. Lansing Is assured of a highly successful career In the great office whose requirements and possi bilities were never so large as now. Charleston Family Row. (Columbia Record.) There is to be a munclpal election In Charleston some time before this year is out, and tho campaign warms up. Munclpal campaigns in Charles ton usually last titree or four years. ; Maj. Tr ls ti am T. Hyde, who oppos ed John P. Grace before, is the only announced candidate against Mayor Grace, wbo seeks reelection, i The Hyde people controlled the De mocratic party convention and made the rules for the campaign. The con vention by a strict partisan vote de feated the Grace move for, public meetings In each ward. subsequently Mayor Grace sent a long challenge to Mayor Hyde to meet him on the stump. This fte major declined, signing his *3tter "very re spectfully" whether be mesnt lt that way or not. Mayor Grace made an-' other effort to get Major Hydo to meet him on the stump. Again the major courteously declined. . Mayor Grace, who ls a regular slinging nettle when he gets Into ac tion, then wrote a letter full of taunts, et cetera, in which he accused Major Hyde of making charges against the Grace administration and then being afraid to face Mayor Grace od the stump with them. To which tho major appended the following: Note-(Returned to writer, as wUI be any further communications be cause of .offensive personalities to Which this letter is reduced.) T. T. HYDB. Now, that will not squelch Mayor Grace. He is too versatile and too re cuperative. But wo do not blame Major Hyde. When In tbs game of politics. U ls unfair to yourself to let your opponent play your hand. If Major Hyde is running on bis merita, and his citizenship, he would do hier cameo no good to get Into a wordy scrip with a man who ls a past mas ter. But, what some people can't under stand is this-why should Charleston ! of necessity have to select from t?e-e I two geno*?*T. Why p^rpetitste a j feud?
