Now that the schools are about t.ial
to open !<>r another term let vis P?r'
impress upon you the necessity ^
that mothers and fathers co-op voti
erate willingly ami intelligently a re
in the work that the school leach- mor
ers have to do. chil
There is much talk, in homes, the
of the school teachers' short- you
comings. There is far too much Inij
readiness to listen to the stories grer
of children excusing their own er d
poor work with criticism of leach it hj
ers. The matter is most serious, cess
The teacher cannot possibly do thei
his best work and give the best schc
results unless the parents co-op espc
erate with him intelligently. and
Fathers and mothers know beei
what an a'rocious thing a spoiled Krat
child is. You pity the father and ers 1
mother that must control one Y
spoiled child. Don't fail to pity chil
the public school teacher who is you
expectod to control a dozen or bun
more spoiled children. The first In tl
thing for you lathers and moth- you
era is to see to it that you do not well
send spoiled children to the D
schools. Remember that the most
intelligent, conscientious, devoted
teacher can see all of his work Majo
made useless by overpetting of a
child or foolish severity with a l,y P
Nalv<
child. (1
Fathers and mothers in Amer 26ca
ica demand, properly, that a Fun<
teacher shall not strike a child.
They should send to the teacher Ch<
children that do not require ^
blows. F
Fathers and mother demand ^
thatin school their children
shall be controlled by moral
C
suasion. Let them send to the
teachers children that are accus as
tomed to be controlled in that ,C1
manner. Realize that the fatherl,om
is a teacher's partner in educa )aC
tion, and that the mother is the)
teacher's ally. Think what a
you put before tlie teachers, 111011

1 Route Traveled by Washing*

Another Interesting Article on

From Wax haw Enterprise. ^
After writing laytspring about
the location of this village and
the trip made through this section
by George Washington,
suggestions from others canstd
me to inquire about the roads.
I was under the impression that j
the original Steele Creek road
i n
was the present route (except
the part crossing Twelve Mile
creek at a lord and traversed by
Washington) Irom Fort Mill by
way ol Doby's bridge. Belairand

find that Six-Mile church for
merly stood about one and a ^
half miles northeast of its pres*
rj
ent site on the road to Marvin
as the mail rmit? now ?nnu iliuf "
thecroseing of Twelve-Mile creek 11
was by lord at Miller's mill; thai 11
p
the old road was separated from
tho present one about a halt
mile east of Osceola ami ran by "
the present residence of T. W.
Secrest, Esq., and crossing the H<
creek at Miller's mill, on north R'
ward by the original Six Mile ^
church, then by J. W. Hall's 1
ginnery to Pleasant Valley.
From there it seems that the ^
road ran back of Mr. James Bailes',
crossing Shugaw creek at. or 1
near Ward'a old mill, and on by ''
old Unity church.
This discovery does not change e
the route traveled bv Washing- ^
ton. It only applies to one loca- 0
tion of tlie Steele Creek road. e
But tradition fuither states that
Oornwallis, commanding the ^
British army, cut out the old
Washington road from about the 1
present site of Six-Mile church ^

While Mr. CJ. K. Laney was
ut on the campaign last week,
Irs. Laney had some one 1c
tay at her home at, night foi

ling Mr. Laney phoned from
tuby that he would be at home
y 12 o'clock that night and she
id not arrange for any one tc

raited until nearly 12 o'clock be re
she retired, thinking Mr.

ite in the night she concluded
ather than disturb any ot her
eighbora she would risk.sta.vin?
i the house with her little
lieces. Not long af'er she retird
she heard some one strike a
ittle dog belonging in the yard
nd thought that Mr. Laney had
rrived and had hit the dog in
:>me way. In a few minutes
nine one tried the blinds to her
ed room window and she still
bought that Mr. Laney had
een to put up his horse and in
assing the window gave it a
ake with his hand, but she soon
Dund that some one had gotten
i the parlor adjoining her bed
i)om. She then became frightend
so much that she woke up
er nieces and told them that some
ne was in the house. The intrudr
came to her room door and
ried to open it and then Mrs.
.aney began to scream and call
3r help, and whoever it was
lion rushed to get out of the
ouse and in doing so ran over a
hair. Mrs. Laney's Rcreanis anused
several of her neighbor?
nd the first to get there were
ome colored women wlioj lived

ne could be seen as the rusca
