S\\cnriiigeti and Miss Eva May llite Make Adilresstvs. There was a good gathering of ustees, teachers, patrons and lends of education at the Central aded school auditorium Saturday orning to hear addresses by State iperlntendent of Education J. E. vearingen and Miss Eva May Hite, -esident of the State Hural School Bsoclation. County Superintendent ' Education V. A. Lingle, presided rer the meeting and ill well-chosen ords, introduced the speakers. Mr. Swearingen prefaced his rearks by saying that it had been s desire to visit Lancaster again, int he was gratified at the work lat had been accomplished in the mnty along educational lines, but hile this was encouraging. there as much more to be done. There e different ideas about education.' he trustees have their ideas, the achers theirs and their ideas vary, lie city superintendent of a school, om the circumstances of the case, us different plans and purposes om those of the principal of a iwn or county school, it all dependg upon their environment, but in ly case, earnest, practical work is hat is needed. The greatest need South Carolina today, is not oney. not machinery, nor people, it the great fundamental need is! itelligence. There are now many en who, owing to proper educaoti and training, have worked won?rs in their communftles. Charleston, Dorchester and Dar-' 11 gton counties had special school ix levies in all the school districts i J hose counties. No school in aldington county runs for less than ;ven months. The speaker touched on the ma' r of illiteracy in the state as evipnced by the recent enrollment of aters. Out of 153,000 names on le club rolls in the state, in some unities those who were illiterate r*d made their mark ran as high as 7 per cent. The last United States Misus gave 170,000 whites of otig age. Ten per cent of these lade no effort to enroll. This shows in neeessitv r?f pHiwntinir tl,o le. In Marlboro county, the baner cotton raising county of tbo ate. where they average a bale to le acre and more, the illiterate htte vote was *27 per cetlt. The inuence of such illiteracy on the ate is fearful to contemplate. It a disgrace for any man to have to lake his mark. In the public schools f the county is where the problem i to be sol seel. Mr. Swearingen osed by urging the school trustees ) take a more active interest in icir schools. Miss Eva May Hite, the president f the State Rural School Assoclaon, was next introduced by Mr. ingle. She began by saying the ind of work to be done by our 'hools depended, largely, upon the >rce of public sentiment in the coniinnity. Where there is genuine j-operation on the part of teacher, arent and trustee, all working for le advancement of education in letr midst, you will always find a onrishiug school. She stressed the nportance of having "Clean up lays" for each school. She sug estod the tirst Friday in November 9 a suitable time, but said any day ould answer if it was observed, he called attention to the fact that rizes amounting in the aggregate > $1,250 were being offered by the Late to the 40 schools showing the reatest improvement. The improvelent must be in building and rounds, equipment and community pirit or activity. Miss I lite quoted rom Henry Ward needier to the iay" for each school. She sugffect that there is not a single elelent of activity put in force in any am m unity but what is due to the ower of public opinion. "The 'signal ord' of success in educational ork," said Miss Hite, " is eo-operaon." She brought out the idea in ^e following "School Teacher's reek," by Edwin Osgood Grover. hich she read in a very impressive lanner: I believe in boys and girls, the men nd women of a great tomorrow,, lat whatsoever the boy soweth tlitf inn shall reap. I believe in the curse of ignorance, fflcacy of schools, in the dignity of inching and in the joy of serving tliers. I believe in wisdom as revealed in unian lives as in the pages of a rinted book, in lessons taught, not > much by precept, as by example, i ability to work with the hands as ell as to think with the head, in verything that makes life lqyely. I believe in beauty in the school jom, in the home, in daily life and 1 out of doors. I believe i^ laugher, in love, in faith, in all ideals and istant hopes that lure us oni I believe that every hour ot evenay we receive a just reward Tor all e are and ajl we do. I believe in the present and its oportunities, in the future and its romises and in the divine joy of I ving. ?EDWIN OSGOOD 0ROVER.
