DO THE TEACHERS NEED TEACHING? The Orangeburg correspondent of the News ana Courier reports that in the examination of teachers in that county the question was asked: "What was the real cause of the War of the KEBELLION?" The Xews and Courier in a very vigorous editorial protests against the form of the question and we think ' verj properly. . The question as the New3 and Courier says very likely anticipates the answer, "Slavery". It is utterly useless to complain of the errors of our school text-books in the treatment or tne war Deiween tue States when those who examine the teachers are themselves ignorant. We should like to know if the, school teachers in Fairfield Coanty ever ask their pupils, What was the real cause of the War of the Rebellion? Ai d if they do ask such a question, then we should like to have them give through - The News axd Herald what answer they teach the children as the correct one. If they teach the sons and daughters of Confederate soldiers that their lathers were rebels, then we should like to have the teachers give their reasons for it. If the teachers do not know the true principles which gave rise to the brief life of the Confederate States, then it is hopeless to expect the "children to know. If the teachers do aot kno* which text-book is truthful, then a change of teachers is desirable. The stream can not rise above its source, nor can the children rise above tpaohore. Wfi rail nr>aii the teachers in Fairfield to answer these questions,and while theyjare answering questions we should be glad to know whether such a question as the one reported from Orangeburg was asked in this county at the examination for teachers' certificates, and we want to know further how our teachea3 answered' it. The old soldiers are very much interested in this matter as well as all true lovers of the truth. The columns of The News axd Herald are cheerfully opened for replies. It mow tio tViof- maiw n-f nrtr pa<?}ipr?l nftPfl "V I-"-- J teaching. x Mr. King, Supervisor of Darlington County, urges the Supervisors of the different Counties to meet in convenr -tion on November lOtb, duriog fair week, to discuss the sabject of road .improvement. Through the efforts of Mr. C. C. Wilson, Gen. Roy Stone, chief of the division of road inquiry of the United States department of agriculture, and Prof. J. A. Holmes, State " - -geologist orJNortn Calronna,~have con-" eented to be present. Both of these gentlemen have distinguished themselves in this line, and it is & real pleasure to announce that they will take part in the deliberations of the convention. As many members of the Road Association as possible should go to Columbia to hear "these eminent experts. General Stone has issned for years many valuable documents from cis department on roaa improvement, and North Carolina owes her macadamized roads to Prof. Holmes more than any other man. These experts know what are good roads, what it costs to build, and how to construct them. No one interested in good reads shoald fail to meet them. e epresentative TV olukg rode from hi3 home to Winnsboro, a few days ago, on his bicycle. He made the trip, covering a distance of about twentytwo miles, in about three hours. How much plcasanteranctiiow mucn quicker y he could have made it on macadamized roa? 1 This is a day of rapid locomotion. The bicycle is a product of this spirit of the age. It is the civilization of the day. Mad roads belong to the past, and if Fairfield continues to have mud roads, she will be left behind uin the past." Property values increase with the introduction of new progressive ideas and methods. Greenville and Spartanburg were not slow to build cotton factories and adopt the progressive spirit of the age. Property values there are higher than in Fairfield. We have jast commenced with a cotton factory?something that ought to have b?en done long ago. And it looks as if we are going at the same slow pace in improving our highways. it A great deal is beiDg said by the newspapers aboat the importance of marking places of historic interest. If it is put off too long, it will be hard, if - * "I * - A- 1 i- ll 1 not lmpossioie, 10 toc&ie me pisws uefinitelv. The fight at Mobley's Meeting House was a very important event in the Revolutionary War, yet we have never be?u able to find out the exact spot. If there is any one in the County who can give the information, we shall be g'ad to hear from him.

If the merchants in 'A ionsboro can be made to see trade is going to other points ^on account of the bad roads to this place, then we can't help it.

This Association is the Only One in Sight, and Yon Should Join It. Some Sensible Talk. Mr. Editor: It would seem from the silence of the Road Associaton that it t id sat down and was resting from its labor. This is the era of organization. Nearly every important measure, es- , nnoioiivAf r nnhlift n&tnre. is accom- j i V?- ? piisbed tbrongb organization. If we : have good roads they will be obtained ; by means of an organization of some kind. We have adopted a constitution, which is sufficient for th$ present, and as there is no fee for membership, fhoro ;* nn ptwisb for anv srood and patriotic citizen not joining. Let me urge yon, one and all, to complete the j organization by forming township i clubs and selecting your member of the , council. It yoa cannot spare the time to bold township meetings, let some patriotic citizen take down the names of all who wish to appear on the eide "with those desiring good roads,? and select your most level headed and patriotic memU. onnnnilmori T.Pf trtOTn UQ1 J VUl WUUVliUAuui .. .. ship keep a roll of all who are in favor of good roads. It is of the greatest importance that all the townships of the county organize bo each township may have its just proportion of the 1 work done by the chain gang or any < other additional labor that may be employed in the future to work on the roads. If you do not organize you may have reason to complain of the dis- 1 tribution of the labor. Join the asso- i OltM/lVlT UUU j vw* ii ? . through the council and they 'will receive due consideration. After organization some plan will : have to be adopted. As the association has not yet adopted any plan for improving the roads, I will submit my . ideas fer the consideration of the association. I conceive that it is very : important that all the public roads be ' laid off first, so that we may know where they are. If that duty doe6 not . rinon anv one. we should see to itihat it is macle the duty of some < ODe. A competent engineer should be I employe 1 to change tbe grades, at i least, over some of our hills, and to , examine all the bad places on our main roads and make suggestions as to how 1 they should be fixed and also to make an estimate a9 to the cost. When we have the aata we can decide about how < much we will fix annually and the way . and style in which these bad places ' shall be fixed. "We should fiud out the < cost of a rock crusher and t'ser machines for road working, and -'my are ? necessary for the construction < t' guod roads. We might make arrangements i with one or more counties to shaie ine i expense and use of the machines with ; ns. 'Ihi8 will call for money. Yes, and do you expect to get anything valuable for nothing? I will say here, : that I am opposed at this time to the : issue of bonds for the improvement of I our road*, and stand prepared to give ; mt reasors when asked for them. I think every one should interest himself to see that the present road law is < properly observed. It is nc je in- i tention of the association to abolish or i eimnlnn* thA nrftsfint SVBtem Of WOrkinSf ""rr ? x- j w the roads, but to act as an auxiliary, \ for even after all the real bad places have been fixed there will still be left i plenty for the road hands to do. In order to be patriotic we must i have something to be patriotic about. I If all our surroundings are of a tempo- i rary nature it will be no great sacrifice" to leave them. Let all who hare plans /or improving the roads give them to us through The News and Herald. The editor has generously : and patriotically consented to publish anything good on the subject. Respectfully, W. S. Hall. It is Easy to Ten. People who fail to look after their ' health are like the carpenter who 1 neglects to sharpen his tools.

It is not often two persons live together for half a century as man and vife, yet occasionally we find stub a :onple. 'On Tuesday, October 12ib, Mr. and klrs. T. T. Ca-sels celebrated their jolden wedding at their hospitable lome, near Wilksbnrgr, in Chester bounty. In 1817 jMr. Cassels married i Mrs. Sanders, 'Squire Sanders perbrming the ceremony. Only three witnesses of that happy marriage arc iving. Two of tuese were i-utntui ilaves at that time, the other is Mr. Chomas Hyatt. Ou thi^ occasion their :hildren, grandchildren and greatgrandchildren, four generations, together with invited friends, were present. The guests began to assemble about :eu o'clock, and from the gorgeons iecorations and significant inscrip.ions, the? snrmised that something ilse was to be. Just at noon, when ill the gnests were assemoiea m me spacious parlor, the conversation was msbedby the sweet melodies of the vedding march played on the organ )Y Miss Mattie Mills, of Blackstocks. Entering the door ladened with lovely lowers were little Dolores CasseL?,. of Back lick, and Leon Tobin, of Barnveil, immediately followed by Mr. ftawls, of VVinnsboro, and Miss Tobin, >f Barnwell, and finally came the ovely bride Miss. Kate Casse!6, - an iccompiishetT granddaughter "of Mr. tassels, and the groom, Dr. David' Provence, a popular physician of Fairfield, who with their attendants ook position under the golden bell, md were united in matrimony by Etev. J. E. Mahaffey. Thus the union of fifty years was selebrated by the marriage of the sweet granddaughter, who had lived vith them from a child. The good ivishes of the whole company were showered upon the old and the young ogether. We are loathe to give Miss Sate up, bat Chester's loss is Fairleld's gain. May the life of this j'OUDg conp'.e be as happy, prosperous tnd useful as that of the old has been. Soon after the ceremony the guests wpr0 invif-p/1 tn thfi dining-room, to partake of a sumptions dinner. All ieemed to do jastice, and enjoyed this Dart of the program immensely. At he conclusion of dinner the question ;vas raised, whose weddicg the occasion really celebrated ? Short speeches were made by Editor Buchanan, Soicitor Henry and Lawyer Gage. As .he young couple answered the quesions propounded to them by llev. Vlahaffey by saying, "I would," it ;vas decided that it te called the 'would wedding." In a few hours the crowd dispursed rhe bride and groom left for their lome in Fairfield County on the 13th. \s Miss Kate was organist and Sa'o)ath School teacher in New Hope ibarch sbe will be missed there as ivell as at her bome and in the- com nunity.
