""V "Cooperation is the secret of success In school work. Dls6ention will ruin any community as far as schools are concerned. If the people of Abbeville appreaclated the value of Educatlou, Abbeville would have better schools. The wealth producing power of a com mnnlty depends directly on its educations advantages. The Educated man makes ?10,000 in bis life time while the uneducated makes S1X.000. Each day In school is worth $10 to a boy or girl. It is better to put the labor of the land Into the boy than to put the labor of the boy Into land. Illiteracy Is the heavest burden that anj community can carry. Only three generations can live in thecitj before they must get back to the rural districts or die. Education must prepare for life rather thaD for a professionTho mn?t lmnnrtnnt, machine known to clvllzatlon Is the plow. No school Is better tba? the teacher who lb v t the head ol It. Many teachers are being paid more than their services are worth. The dog catcher of Washington gets 81500 per year while the school teachers getSOOO No educatid woman will uar en ur.cducatcducatcd family. Denmark and Massachusetts have taxed themselves rich. The school bouse Is the heart of a com' munlty. v The progress of a community Is Judged not by Its churches but by Its schoolbouse, The school Is of economic value to a community. Good schools demand a community of In terest and a breadth of Interest. The brain of a man goes Into his business bu* the brain of a mother goes Into her home and children. II me wouieu art) euucmtu iuc vtiiuf duestlon of conipuleary education !b settled foreever. Many men confuse licence with freedom and say they want the latter when they ask for the former. Pat good books in your home and your schools. The two most serlouB defects in onr srhoo' system is the saleries of teachers and length oj terms. In the community the individual has lost sight of bis responsibility. The itate never intended to pay the whole oost of of schools. It desire that the Individual do his part.' Very little can be accomplished in aj schooj that only runs three month per year. Most schools of Abbeville county are poorly ventilated, poorly lighted and poorer equlpp ed. Rural people live well at home and miserably at sobool. Sixty pupils can be better taught in one building than can fifteen pupils each in four buildings. The present Educational et mpslgn 1b not one of politics butpatrotism. Our greatest curse is Ignorance. Our duty in educational matters does no! stop with ourselves but extends to our neighbors children. The children of a comunity are our wards both In law and In morals. A man can get along without a strong body but he cannot get along without a strongmind. Our people should study the matter of com . pulsary education. We need a state schoo commission Just ab we have a state railroad commission. Oar girls teach in order to get married and our young men teach tn order to study a pro. fession, Riches may take wings and fly away but i ^ an education sticks., The state that has the smallest percent of * illiteracy has the smallest percent of vice. ; < | . ? " I \ The Dispensary Opens. On account of contests the Dispensary did j * not open as advertised lost Friday. On Sat- * urday there were many disappointed ones , who came to town, not for the purpose of vis- t ltlng the Dispensary, but who wished to Bee 8 It open all the same. The Dispensary opened Monday morning c and dirt 1nnt nn nrrilnarv hnnlneua Thorn C was no raeb, no orowd. The police looked no j one up. Things passed off as usual. t A great number of the darling women of r Abbeville are Dlspensaryltes, bat ibere Is one E good woman wbo is not; sbe is a probl from r a to izzard. This good woman unfolded a | tale of woe that would "barrow upyoursoui'' and-"freeze your red blood," on the result! of Monday'b opening. All tbe Bacchanalian revelers passed bar bouse on Mondaj. Tam O'Sbanter, followed by all tbe witches or tbe kirk, bibulous Burns on Rosenantes, glorious gln-guzzlers galore?all hilariously celebrating tbe damper to tbe recent 'dry spell. 8he saw tbem all, and told about It, too. When a good woman tells you a thing, tbere Is do use to say a word. When Bbe sees It with ber own eyes and tells you, tbe Jig Is up with your argument. You can only say "Yessnm," and look meek. Thinks Mr. Grace will Not Win his Case Before the Supreme Court. Hod. J. Fraser Lyon Is In tbe city for a sbort stay with Mr. J. Hayne McDlll. In speaking of tbe contention of Mr. J. P. Grace before tbe oourts as to tbe constitutionality of the Dispensary election Act, Mr. Lyon thinks that tbe courts will declare tbe Aot constitutional, otherwise tbe Board of Canvassers would not have made tbelr recent declaration. If the Board of Canvassers bad thought that tbe courts would construe the Act to be unconstitutional, it would have been folly for tbem to make any declaration as to tbe legality of tbe election. Hon. Wyatt Aiken and family are back again. It has been ratber a strenuous year and all the Representatives deserve a rest. 8 ah ior our ivepreHBDiaiive, air. AiaeD, ne aoes j, more work than anybody; his capacity for t work is unlimited, and be does It so graciously t tbat be makes you think you are doing him a t favor, wben in reality you are giving nim a s herculean task. Few men In the Capital have more friends j than has Mr. Aiken. He works on the prln- c clple tbat lor a man to have friends be must show himself friendly. _ Mr. Aiken's friends are men with whom r friendship counts. A man cannot expect to t aocompllah anything In any legislature If he | antagonizes tbe powers that be. It is no ( harm to court the friendship of men, tbougb c they be of different political persuasion from t yourself. This is the secret of Mr. Aiken's sucoess. j He Is bread In altruism, and men like that ( type of man. ( ? . ? 1 Money to loan on country and city property. Abbeville ( Ins. and Trust Co.

He becaifie iit at his home in Cindad del Mais, Mexico, where he had been laboring for twenty-four years as a missionary. Mr. Hunter was well known in this county, having married Miss McDill,a sister to Mr. J. Hayne McJDill of this place. She died in Mexico in 1901. She was a noble woman and did much for the cause in Mexico in aiding her husband in his work. Mr. Hunter is survived by three daughters, Mrs. J. C. Reld of Sardis, X. l\. Mrs. M. W. Bovce of Gastonia N. C.? Miss Eloree Hunter of Cindad del Mais, Mexico, and James Hunter, also of Mexico. Mr. Hunter is also survived by his second wife who was Miss Besoma Beema of Altoona, Penn. Mr. Hunter was a good man. His life was given to the cause which be represented, and in point of zeal and love for the cause he was among the first. Made It Going and Coming. "Hello, George !" George is the tall colored man with the long whip who drives cows about town. The speaker was one of our honored citizens. "Hello, George," said he, "how do you make a living?" "Takin' cons to pastur'," said George, in his inimitable voice. "And you take cows to pasture, do you? Well, what else do you do for a livelihood, that is not all, is it ?" "No, sir," said George. "Well, what else do you do, George?" "I bring um back in the evenin'," was the reply. "Umph humph." Death of Miss Victoria Hall. Miss Victoria Hall of Valdosta, Ga., died there on last Thursday.

ABBEVILLE'S EDUCATIONAL MEETING The Educational Ralley far this Connty pas held last Friday tbe 27 tb, at Sharon. A ;ood number of people were present to hear be speakers. We venture to say, without having altendid such meeting in other counties, tbat the (baron meeting; was In tbe fore front in point if attendance In point of Interest, and in olnt of thought In tbe subject matter of tbe peeohes delivered. 11 Is a plly tbat every Dan, woman, and child ih tbe oounty oould tot have beard tbe messages brought by hose who graced tbe occasion with their holsed thoughts on tbe subjeot of subjects Education, Acoordlng to the good book tbere are some blngs that Iseems to enrlck yet It tenth to >overly and tbere are somethings tbat scater abroad yet enriceth. Whena oounty tries o pile up money at the expense of Educa' Ion such a oonnty tendeth to povety. When ; county Is lavish In her Educational exlendlture sbe may seem to be soatterlng ber ubstance abroad but In truth she Is growing lcb. No county is richer than the Educalon of her citizens, or the wealth of a county nay be measured by the Eduoatlou of Its ltlzens, As was mentinued by one of the speakers of Friday, Massachusetts Is riobcr than South Carolina simply because her citizens are beter educated. Not because the men of Masnr*hnratfn havp mnrfl hrnin t.hnn wp hovp hn* 1 lecause they are better trained men, their trains have been harnessed and put to work he average man In Massechusette makes too nuch more wages than does the average south Carollno. When Abbeville ballt her cotton will Massachusetts furnished a man of ruin Its :afie dlrectlly In point. The awakening along Educational line is :oing to accomplish results. Tbe people are eady for the quistloa. They are ready to go o work, to leave the low plaoe on tbe lntelectual ladder snd climb higher up. South Carolina Is dlsgrased In tbe position she oc oples In tbe galaxy of State la Educational natters. Dr. Johnson stated that Gov. Ayoock, of forth Carolina, thankod God for Sontb Carolina because that State saved North Carolina from being at tbe foot of the class in Education. It Is time for us to awake.

White when a few friends were entertained together with sever al visiting guests. Soon after eating the cream ene after another was taken vlolentlj ill, every one, eleven In nnmber, only twc escaping.

The week's services at the Methodist church closed last Sunday nlgbt, wheD Dr. Belk preached his last sermon. Tbe meeting spiritually was enjoyed by all denomination! who Joined In brotherly love and good fellowship, all working together In one great cause?the salvation of sools.

Slnoe their departure a telegram has been reoelved by relatives stating be was a little better. Many friends hope bis life may be spared and that be may soon be restored to his family In health and strength. Argument of Mr. J. P. Grace anent the nnoonlllutionallty of tbe Dispensary Election act. Mr. Graoe In arguing the unconstitutionality of tbe Dispensary Election act divided bis argument Id to three points as follows. First tbat tbe aot In question la in conflict with article 8, section 17, of the Constitution of 1895 which Provides: Every act or resolu> tlon having tbe force oflaw shall relate to but one subject and that sball| be expressed in tbe title. Seoond?that tbe said act Is uucon stltntlon beoanse It le In confllot with artlole 1, section s, of the Oonstutlob of 1895, which provided the privileges and lmmunltes of citizens of this State and of tbe United States under tbis Cons tltlon shall not be abridged, nor shall any person be deprived of life, liberty or property with out due process of law, nor shall any person be dnenled the equal protection o the law. f "Third?The Act in question is in conflict with Article 3, Section 34, Subdivision 1, of the Constition of 1895, against special legislation." Tbe objectionable sections of the Act. according to Mr. Graoe, were tbose sections pertaining to tbe election recently held. Mr. Grace cited a number of authorities in support of tbe special legislation feature of bis argument and claimed tbat although the first partof tbe Act In the prohibition features Is oonBitutlonal, tbe last sections are not. Mr, Grace contends tbat tbe Act of 1909 was a Prohibition Act, and that the sections tb ere of after tbe thirteenth are null and void. BRAVE FEAT BY CAROLINIAN.
