Burts has mailed out programs and membership cards to more than 5,000 teachers of the State and it is his plan to send to every teacher a letter and a program. From reports, coming in from the various sections of the State, it is practically an assured fact that there will be more than two thousand teachers in attendance ! at the State Teachers' Association in Columbia, March 15th to 17th. Watf'M}. Bynum, president of the association, has announced that Dr. Chas. -.A- McMurray of the Feabody College for Teachers, Nashville, will make the address on Friday evening, March 16th, and that he will . also address the members of the grammar grades department on fc Friday morning at 10 o'clock and . also the joint meeting of the department of elementary schools and the school improvement association Friday evening at 3:30. Dr. McMurray has a national reputation as a trainer of public school teachers and the teachers of South Carolina are indeed fortunate to have this opportunity to hear him. The railroad fares on all trains i will be 3c per mile, plus 35c. for the ! 'round trip. These are exceptionally ; low rates.

Something is j very wrong with the youthful generation, or what is more probable, ] . with the system which allows them : an amount of liberty inconsistent with the habit of submission to wholesome parental authority, when I mere boys and girls for the most % trivial opposition to their desires, ? thus throw off all restraint.
