I it is wortn wmie to get a boy to form a good purpose aiid work persistently toward its accomplishment. If a number of , boys can be induced to strive for the same goal, with a spirit of ifriendly rivalry which stimulates .observation, study, in- ' dustry and economy, then the good re- J suits will be increased many fold. Such is the plan of the Boys' Corn Clubs 1 in the Farm Demonstration Work. In i order to get the best results it is not only necessary to get the boys to unite their ' efforts, but it is also essential that other 1 vital forces in the county cooperate. One 1 of the strong features about the Demon- < stration Work is that it is co-operative. ' So in the Boys' Department we frequently 1 find the county superintendent of educa- ! tion and teachers, the Demonstration j agents, the business men, the newspapers ' and the parents giving aid and support. ' Where this work is being introaued in J a county, the county superintendent of ' education and teachers can teach .the boys in all sections of the county more quickly ana more effectively than any other agency 1 I'U ? 1 ixiic Dupciiiii/CiiuL'ii'w uttii uAjjituii liiu uiaii to the'teacher, and they can explain it to 1 the boys and secure the names of all the boys who will agree to plant one acre of j corn. It is best to begin with corn. It is 1 a fine subject for study, and our people 1 need to raise more com to be prosperous J and independent. 1 After this is done a meeting of all boys interested should be held at the court 1 house for the purpose of organization and ' instruction. Such meetings should be held as early in the season as possible so that every bov may have time for proper preparation of soil and selection of seed. For the first year it has been found advantageous to see that first class seed are fur- r nished to all of the boys alike. After that , each boy should select and breed his own j . seed. Wherever a special agent of the U. ( S. Department of Agriculture is located in j H a county it will be found that he will gladly j M help in giving instructions and advice in . |i regard to the agricultural part of the work pi either to the county Club or to local groups M of boys whom he may meet tin his rounds $9 over the county. k ] PRIZES AND PREMIUMS. If the merchants and other public-spirit11 ed citizens have been visited and the work explained to them before the general meet- j ing of boys, there will be a fine list of prizes to announce. There jhave been many commendable contributions to this j w i cpuRA in various nurts of the countrv dur ing this year. It adds considerable in terst to the work to offer prizes like the following, which have been selected from different lists in the South for this year: ? "A trip to "Washington, $50 in gold, $10, J5, , a nice buggy, a first class bicycle, a strong , 2 horse plow, a double barrel shot gun, a j $5 hat, a $15 suit of clothes, an up to date | corn planter, a ton of Fertilizer, a twohorse wagon", and other articles of utility and value. Some Boards of trade and chambers of commerce have made appropriations direct for prizes a3d some have given' fine recognition to the efforts of the 1 Boys'Clubs by giving them banquets and i street car and automobile rides. 1 CIRCULARS AKD BULLITEN8. x ( Just as soon as the names of all of the boys are assembled in the office of the . county superintendent of education, dupll- ! cato lists should be sent to Dr. S. A. Knanp Washington, D. C., who has charge- of the ' farmers cooperative Demonsration Work. ' These boys will from time to time receive f _r circulars of instruction and Information ier in regard to preparation, fertilization, cul-A tivation,seed selection, etc. These circulars furnish excellent subject matter for 1 discussion at a club meeting or for a lesson j in school. They also lead to further study ? of farmers' bullitens and books. A boy OP- will profit from such lessons, discussions i and Books because he is making practical application of the principles taught. He iary learns scientific agriculture because he rce(j needs it aud not because it is scientific. i u m RULES AND AWARDS. It is not necessary to have many rules. WD' A few regulations, however, are necessary ] Ibe in order to prevent misunderstanding. It 1 , . is w611 for the boys to select own president ! this vice-president, secretary and treasurer. , Some clubs have badges of membership j I in the shape of a button with the name of ?' the club, name ofjthe county and states, and year printed or engraved upon it. r>me following rules might be adopted | by a club, with such modification and ad- , > re- ditions ao may be found necessary: 1. Boys joining clubs and entering contests must be under 18 years of age. 2. No boy shall contest for a prize un- ; less he becomes a member of a club. 3. The members of the club6 must agree ; to read the instructions of the Demonstra- , tion Work. , 4. Each boy mu6t plan his own crop and do his own work. 5. Exhibits must be delivered to the : county superintendent of education by October 16th. 6. The amount of the yield and the method of measurements must be certified by each boy and attested by at least two disinterested witnesses, who shall be satg to isfactory to the county superintendent. 7. In awarding prizes the following basis shall be used: b re- (a) Greatest yield per acre 30 per cent. (b)Best 10 ear exhibit 15 per cent (ci Best written account showing history [\ of crop and all expenses 25 per .cent. wjH (d) Best showing of profit on investment 510 nor cunt Note: The above will not go Into effect [ ? until 1910 as many have already adopted a different system of awarding prizes for the present year. Experts from agricultural colleges and ' departments of .agriculture and leading farmers 6hould be invited to act as judges and also to give talks on corn judging and seed selection. i In estimating profits uniform prices should be used, for instance; $5 per acre sod for rent, 10 cents per hour for the work ?i, of each boy, and 5 cents per hour for each e,, horse. FAIRS AND EXHIBITS. There is a county fair the boys' exhibit should be shown there. If no fair should _ be held in a county, the boys' exhibit should be collected in the court house or Ufima nther nuhlin. nlftPfi easv of access. A ) A good exhibit by a Boys' Club may lead and to the establishment of a county. Exhibits >edy, by local clubs at school houses stimulate 'lev V wor^ an^ ?'ve ^ne opportunities for J general instruction. Although the clubs may start with corn, the development naturally leads to exhibits of other farm and garden crops. RESULTS. esti- The object of the Boys' Demonstration I "Work is the same as that among men, ocal. namely better .methods of farming and fight1 greater yields. Many of the boys in the clubs who begin to 6tudy agriculture in 'esti- this way will continue the 6tudy in the agricultural colleges, others will continue local, such efforts on their farms, and all of them (ight will make more useful and more efficient ciiizens. From the pleasant and profitable experience of owning and managing their ]ou*e small plats they will develop into indepennh?r dent, intelligent farmers. The country only needs such a citizenship and such a life offers and wiii offer great opportunities for cold some years. The professions are crowded and the wage earners must pay high prices mnnnHBBM 'or the necessities of life. Tbe wise and iudicious producer can enjoy, wealth and i jontentment. The question is how many \ Doys can be reached and influenced thus p I ijo succeed. 'x O.B.Martin, f Assisatant in Charge Boys' Demon- * iteration Work. SCHOOL TRUSTEE. J Ja: Question Raised by Mr, Graydon. an Abbeville, S. C., February 7,1910. To the Editor of the Press and Banner: tw In December last, at a public meeting of sic the citizens of Abbeville, called for the o? purpose of electing Trustees of the Graded schools of Abbeville, all of the old Trus- of tees who offered for election were defeated, th< ind new men elected to fill their places, of Four places were filled by election, and it stj was publicly stated by Dr. Harrison, Chair- lis man of the Board of Trustees, that Mr. ful jr. A. Visanska had resigned his position t?i Dn the Board, but that owing to the fact ^ that it had been sent in too late to adver- th( tise and have the vacancy filled, that no . Election could be had at that time to fill "u tiis place. The School law creating the M( School District for the City of Abbeville, ] provides that the Trustees may fill any . vacancy on the Board, if the vacancy is ctl1 ess than one year. As Mr. Visanska had ab sent in his resignation, as was stated by coi the Chairman of the Board of Trustees, r before the meeting in December, then the vacancy was for more than one year, and ori the Trustees had no power to fill it. th< Nevertheless, the Board of Trustees held he a. meeting, and elected to fill the vacancy the Honorable Frank B. Gary, one of the m< Did Trustees, who had been defeated for oi? re-election, having only received fifteen ' votes, out of about flftv-flve votes polled. it seems to mo tnat tnisis a airect slap at ~ the voters of the District, by the Trustees, of and that the public Is entitled to some ' explanation of their action. nn Wm.

Evans' novel ^ "St Elmo" will be seen here on Feb. 12 at , the Grand Opera House before he took to W1 play writing was an actor, his manager be- &P ing one of the men who today, has a commanding voice in directing the destinies of the American stage. One day they had a frightful row and Twomey was discharged, the manager telling him it would be a long time before he secured another engagement as good as the one he had just lost, ec It was not long, however, before Twomey cil achieved a state of affluence sufficient to th enable him to sport a big red automobile gi and every afternoon at about the time the cb manager was in his office, he sat back in Si his car smoking a big fat cigar and honked m the horn until his former employer looked to out of the window. Whereupon xwomey nc would make an elaborate bow and drive wi away. After about two weeks of this sort ds of thin/?, the performance got on the manager's nerves and he called the police. id "Here," said the policeman, "you musn't pi bother Mr. X. in this way," at "Bother him," exclaimed Twomey,""Why re I am not bothering him, surely. I am only fa showing him his mistake." wi "His mistakeV'repeated the puzzled po- m liceman. Why certainly. I am proving to him ar that instead of tiring me he might better la have fired himself." tb ,, et For fifty years or so "St. Elmo," Augusta J. Evans' novel, has been one of the moBt 111 popular books by a native writer. It has always been regarded as a particularly 5: charming romance of the south, the ere- i1 ntiz-.n r>f n urtut.horn fl.nt.hor. whose SVmoa thy with her subject rendered her work ^ particularly effective. The incidents nar- J1< rated in its pages have tempted the drama- ^ tist more than once and now comes the J* announcement that a new version has been P* put before the public. This latest is the t(5 work of Neil 'lwomey, an author of ex- 01 perienee and a stage director of ability, who according to the management of the tE play has prepared a drama that will appeal w to the fastidious theatregoer. The play is er announced at the Opera House. Feb. 12th. ?j Estate of Guilford Cade, Deceased. L si Notice of Settlement aod Application Si for Fiual Discharge.

Che Presbyterian might have gone fur3r and told us more of the office-holding' siness, if it had looked as far off as ixlco. tfobody doubts the worthiness of the aracter of these beloved men, and their llity to discharge important duties jld not be questioned. Che only question is: Is it wise for any ionization to place so many offices into b hands of one or two men, even if they tfie best men in Synod? Can any two m fill so many offices where time, effiincy and labor are required? rhe Pope of Borne holds but one office, d does not pretend to exercise the duties any other office. rhe president of the United States holds other office than that of President. The tvs of the United States would not allow m to hold more than one office. The Governor of the State does not asme to hold the office of Sheriff, Coroner, Lieutenant Governor. The laws of the ate forbid any man to hold two offices. ? hold two offices at one time would be ainst public policy as well as against jr. One objection to enumerating the offices hich these good men held is, the probality that by the enumeration suspicion ay be created in the minds of the unlnrmed public that the A. K. P. Church ruled by a coterie, a ring or a clique. And then, evil minded people may attrite the non-growth of the Church to the it that a few men not only rule and atrol the church, but, actually assemble jether, and without consulting the peo), levy heavy taxes upon others than amselves. SViiile the few men who hold all the Ices in the Church, when they, without 3 semblance or authority, levy neavy ces upon the people, In the name of the rd, for doubtful or unwise purposes, 3 effect is, to Injure the church. ^.nd to thin concentration of power, or ) usurpation of authority, and to } dissipation of effort, may be attrited the slow growth of the church, lile nobody doubts the perfectly good entlons of the Sincere christians who these things, yet they, like the cominder of an army, can do little without listing followers in their work. Is a matter of policy and business, tact, en of the twelve offices that had been ran to two of the best and the ablest )n in the ohuroh, had been given to men even less ability and less force of charter, it is perfectly certain that the addinal ten individual office holders would ve added interest and strength?not lakness?to the church.

All the people should be repreQted.

It seems to some people to be inconsistit to banish the lewd women from the ty. According to the view taken by em it would be best to invite these dear rls into our homes, get them to join the lurch and possibly take classes in the inday school. This wduld be so much ore Christlike than for rude policemen go down to the Red Light district and >tify the Inmates to get out or town ithinjtwelve hours or be sent to jail for 90 LV8. But -who is going to invite them ? The ea is absurd. In the present state of iblic opinion, these women are irretriev>ly lost. Not one in a thousand Is ever formed, and even when reformed, what mily is there who would give one of them ork ? What man is there who would arry one of them ? Such talk is mere mushy sentimentality id is being used in the present case to dey their removal or excuse the consent of ie city authorities for these women to ay here, although this is not the purpose ! the innocent speculators who are putng out this line of talk. There is no disposition on the part of lybody to further punish these women, heir lot is already punishment enough, ut there is a desire on the part of those ho make and represent the best pubi sentiment to restore the conditions * * ? _ J 1 1 ? ^ V.A noof men nave existea nere uuhuk hid (joou I fj> years, when no open brothels were srAitted, and to abolish the temptation J i young men which these vicious resorts for. This moral step is being impeded by lose who go to the other extreme and say e ought not to make these immoral wom1 leave town; we ought to take them into lr bosoms and into our homes and make ce iadies of them. From the above, which we copy from the )artanburg Journal, it will be seen that mrtanburg has tackled a big question, seems that a certain lot of hypcrites, ho had not lost all shame, some two lousand years ago, undertook the perseition of a fallen woman, who, like some omen of today, have no friends on earth, >r any hope beyond the grave.
