District Schools
Mr Editor:? It seems that
too little is being said in regard
to the improvement of district
or rural Schools. Such a vital
question should receive more
consideration at our hands.
The rural schools is where the
farmer and his children has,
and is receiving the foundation
of their education, in fact, it
is the "completing college" for
most of us. How important
it is then that we should look for
all the improvements we can.
Many districts have voted a
special tax for school purposes
and 1 understand other's are trying
to see what can be done.
No district can afford to let
air opportunity pass without vot-]
ing on a tart for school improvements.
And no live man can
honestly vote against it.
Its very difficult sometime to
get a special levy thrugh on account
of opposing parties?parties
that will fight any thing
progressive.
Only three things en'er into
the composition of any man who
fights it. Those things are
prejudice, selfishness and ignorance,
all of which may be
lurking under one shirt. But
let us not consider that one
man has all of these qualities
for if he has you are up against
a "dangerous beast."
Considered from a christian
standpoint no one can vote
against it because it carries with
it the help-others spirit that is
most highly commendable in
anv people besides it takes nothing
from your own.
V All /?nii <vl\ 4 5 4- I

principals, for the business
world is dark as "hades" it) the
uneducated boy or girl, man or
woman and will recognize no
such principal, in its curriculum.
You can not oppose it from a
financial stand, for there is no
better advertisiment to a community
than to see the educational
spirit running high. No
live man is going to I>11and locate
in a distriet on village without
first knowing the state of
the schools and if tin; same is at
a low ebb lie limits .niniho i
part.
If yon hnvo ;m opportunity vote
for it on this ground if nother.
From asocial view you can not
afford to go against it, your
sons and daughters will have a
social standing of sonic sort?
they can not go high if they
know nothing. If you want the
word "Ig-no-ra-nius" stamped
on the brow of your soil, and
the fair cheek of your daughter.
j whv von in fit. vvrrn-1/
P against any thing for the betterr
% _ ment of your schools and it will
there as plainly as
JT$U,.Viad been done with indelibfo
i'.ik?am ark that any one can
w01 at a glartce. Any one can
jfflpll the ignoromus and we see
jamhem in every crowd though
ysom^of them thinks they are
~ smart, but the ignorance will
stick out in spite of them.
To gee a man make his mark
in signing a document of any
kind is a pitiful sight and yet
there are men in that condition
and don't seem to care if their
sons and daughter grow up in
the same way. Such men
ought to be compelled to send to
school at least four months in
the year. If you never had an
opportunity to vote for the im- !
provementof youf schools, make
one and fight for it till you get
what you want and you will al- j
ways be glad. But vote and 1
work against it and von will he (

Vote a levy in order to got aid t
from the state. Don I vote |
against if. because Jack Brown j
is for it (you don't like Jack <
any way) nor vote for it because h
Joe Smith is against it (you i
don't like Joe and you vote for a
spite) but vote for it from pi inci t
pie because you know it is a good 1
thing to d.\ Vote for it going s
and coming for it will be a boon 1 s

In Memorian.
Mi's. Louise Safiders Alexander,
beloved wife of J. C. Alex- (
ander, died at her home in Pickens
last Sunday evening aftor a J
lingering illness, and was laid
to rest at the Pickens cemetery i
the d;iv following hnr donth fVm ?
funeral services being conduc- 1
ting by Rev. E. L. Thomason. ]
Besides her husband and three ]
children, she leaves a mother
and other relatives and friends
to mourn her untimely death.
To her the struggle and burden
bearing of earth are ended,
and we confidently trust that ;
like one who awakes from a
troubled dream she has awakened
to see life's endless morning
break and knows herself at
home with all the vast throng
of loved ones, missed from earth
safe about her. Her home instincts
were strong here in this
bereaved world of disapointment.
Her affection for kind
rod and friends was tender and
abiding.
She was a kind neighbor, dovoted
mother, and true friend,
and withal a woman of heroic j
mould in bravely meeting (lie
stern requirments and often (ho
disappointments of life
She is still the mother of (ho
dear children, upon whom she
doted with such clinging; fondness,
and the companion still of
him who mourn earth's greatest
loss, and may she not by
this very transition wield over
them a stronger force for goodness
and truth than before.
Life will never quite be the
same to those who knew her,
while those who were nearest
her will long for her with unutterable
longings?long for a
mother's counsel and advice and
a wife's gentle and loving sympathy.
Sh?i was a woman of
strong Christian character; patient,
loving and self-sacrificing.
She was a faithful member of
the church, and was just as
faithful in believing it was her
duty as a christian to do the
will of her Master at all limes.
She was always ready to lend a
helping hand in the time of need
hoth in acts of kindness and in
words.
It is sad at anv tim to stand 1
by the bed of the dying and
watch life's ebbing tide drifting
the loved one into the .ureal
ocean of eternity. In it w hen
there conies whispering from '
parched lips: ' "Though
[ walk through the valley of
the shadow of death, I will fear
no evil; for Thou art with me: <
Thy rod and Thy stall iliev com- i
fort me." it brings halm to the I
wounded heart. Tims closed
the life <>l 1 his 1 u?l?1? wmiuin. ';

Here comes the old penciler of
Jateechee with som news items.
Well, our little twin sister?
Norris?is on a boom.
Mr. I. D. Rico has just completed
a five-room house on Libarty
avenue and moved under
liis own vine and fig tree. He
has also erected a large storehouse
near the donnt. jmd dn
Lug both a wholesale and retail
business.
Mr. ? Ervin, of Westminster,
has moved to Norris and opened
up a grocery store in the Whiten
storeroom. Success to you, Mr.
Ervin.
Norris now has six stores, two
blacksmith and repair shops, a
moulding and planing outfit operated
by a building contractor,
who will be glad to figure with
you on building a house at any
time: a first-class livery stable
is one of the possibilities of the
near future.
Now lot some man with the
capital and some lady for his
wife who knows how to prepare
a decent square meal for a hungry
man, come to Norris and
put up a hotel.
Heal estate agent J. V. Ranistor
cut the Johnston lands up in
to lots, in the town of Norris,
and sold 47 on the 2Hth n 11., all
at good prices. Most of those
purchasers will build soon.
Norris is now to have a bank.
They met on the IMh instant
and organized with a paid-up
capital of $20,()(>(> dollars. The
bank will he ready for business
