Importance of School Discipline
At a meeting of the trustees o:
the Lancaster school district heh
Monday in the office of Col
T^rnv Snrinorn ohnirmaii nf
board, the resolution ,publishe<
elsewhere was passed unani
mously. This action was con
sidored necessary in view o
some recent occurrences in th<
Central school which were cal
culated to do harm. The Boar<
have acted wisely in the matter
By the passage of the resolutioi
they simply put parents on notic<
that if they d? not wish corpora
punishment inflicted on theii
children, they must notify th<
Superintendent of the fact, ii
advance, and be prepared fo
their expulsion for serious of
lenses against the rules ot tn<
school. In order to operate i
school successfully, in any com
munity, it is absolutely neces
sary that discipline should b<
maintained at all hazards. I:
parents are permitted to inter
fere and have their way, th<
work of the best tWchers wil
come to naught. Ninety-nin<
times out of a hundred the chili
is in the wrong* and when.th<
parent steps in and takes his o
her part, the result is not onli
subversion of discipline but i
serious injury is done the child a
well. Parents should remembei
that the public schools are sup
ported by the taxes of all th<
people and should be run for th<
common good and not in the in
terest of any one man or set o
men. Proper consideration shouli
be had for teachers. They ma;
have their frailties common b
t hgm&nity?but a .wile n<
more earnest and conscientiou;
class of people live. Their lot i:
not often a happy one, especiall:
if thoir efforts are not appreci
ated and their work interfere<
with. So, from now on, le
everybody interested in the wel
fare of the school give thei
hearty co-operation and suppor
to both teachers and trustees
Then Lancaster may well boas
of having: one of the best school
in the State.

Jackson's Birth Place.
f Editor Lancaster News:?I
have not closely followed the
controversy with reference to
B the birth place of Andrew Jack1
son, but looking over Mills' Atlas,
- a copy of which is owned by
- Mr. Geo. H. O'Leary of this
f town, I find a most excellent
B map of Lancaster County, sur
veyed aud made by J. Boykin
1 for Mills' Atlas in 1820. On the
map is marked, "Birth Place of
1 Gen. A. Jackson," which is a
B short distance above John Craw 11
ford's bridge on Waxhaw Creek,
r I in Lancaster County.
BS It will be remembered that ,
1 j Jackson was not inaugurated
r i President until 1829, and cer";
tainly there was no controversy
B|as to hi6 birth place in 1820,
1 I urhon t Kio mart moo ntn/)n ??J
vv aav*a vmu mup TfOO lllOUCf (IIIU |
* yet a reliable surveyor, basing
" his information upon what those
1 who knew Jackson perfectly
^ well, and must have known ex"
i actly where he was born, pointed
e out as the place of his birth in
' Lancaster County, nine years
- before he was inaugurated Pres*
ident.
B It seems to me that this map j
r is very strong corroborative eviV
dence that Andrew Jackson
a knew what he was talking about
3 j when he asserted that he was a k
r | native of South Carolina.
