THE SWIFT SPECIFIC CO.. ATLANTA, GA. florals and Manners in Public Schools. BY BILLY FELIX Do the Editor of the Dispatch: The subject of this article very orciblv impresses the writer of the jreat need of this all important work if training the young and tender oiDds in the public schools of our >eloved county and State. I am firmly convinced of the fact hat this subject has not received the ttention which its great importance [emand8. Several reasons for this aay be elucidated. One reason no loubt is the different religious views eld by our army of Pedagogics and he dread of sectarianism. Another, am fully persuaded to believe, is be want of suitable text books bear3g on this important topic. And nother, not the least by any means, i that some teachers do not feel piritually qualified and morally quipped to give the desired instrucions on the cardinal virtues and be- | Dming graces of this matter and the sason for the same. Shame upon 3e man or woman who, morally peaking, has not the fear and love f God in their heart to stand for the :gbt aDd teach the blessed truth to 3e young. Those young professors 'ho give instruction on this subject ) a school t>f young men and ladies nd the night before were seen in ime fashionable society at an eveing party tipping the fantastic toe, ying to keep time to the music, apears in my humble estimation in bout as awarkward a position a9 lose church going asses and assines poken of in Lofton's "Character ketches." Tbe great importance of moral raining ,in the education of the oung does seem to me to be apropsition too clear to render any argulent in behalf of its support. Merely itellectual knowledge alone does not ecessarily qualify men and women jr the active duties of life. Far rom it being a panacea for all the vils with which society is afflicted, ill learned men are not all moral len, nay, not by any means! Some re very immoral and wicked, while literate men are often good and upight. Genuine moral culture is in iy estimation very essential to the ight formation of character and the etterment of good honest citizenhiD. Education, to be symmetrical. harmonious and complete, must inlude the triple culture and deelopment, of the physical, intellecual and moral being as a whole, low often do we see one of theee leveloped to the sad neglect of the ther. We should not burden our pupils rith trite and dull homilies. Not each sectarian theology in the pub- i ic school*-; need not offend any one the least of the different denomi- j iatioD8 by infringing upon their con j cience or freedom. But he id in ! luty bound, and should inculcate nd iostill in those young and tender ainds the very essence and funda- j aental principles of vi'tue which are j f.8eDtial to the production of a true, mre and noble manhood and woman- j ,ood. Teach the student body the il, & "w. itiao MAIIV STB Jul Solicits a Sh principles of truthfulness, honesty, jkindness, patience, temperance, etc. | I verily believe and am fully persuaded that unless these virtues are ( well grounded in the mind of the j 1 minds of the boys and girls they will j ^ surely be unduly qualified for the ac- j * tive duties of life. Should you have ; c pure homes and virtuous families ^ then we must put these principles in 1 practice in our public schools. 1 Teach the children to be cultured * and refined, for no one can afford to ^ - t be course and rude, and appear 1 agreeable to others in society, It is by good manners and personal qual- ^ ities which enables one to win the * admiration and esteem of others. * Politeness costs nothing, bnt affords much happiness and pleasure wbei put into practice. Teach the pupils y the value of good breeding and train them by all means to practice it. Why are some people more popular r. than others? By practicing this one principle of politeness. Make them to know at all times and in every day life to put in practice good manners I which is tbe gateway to true success ? and happiness. Some one may a6k how are we to e teach these method*? By the use of 1 certain text books with assigned les- ! t sons; by short, informal lectures on appropriate subjects at suitable times; c by encouraging them to read gooci 5 moral and religious books and period a icale relating to the laws of polite society. In this way many good im- \ pressions will be made that will ele- ? vate their morals, improve their man- ? ners and give them a higher concep- ;; tion and appreciation of the grand and the true and the beautiful and r the pure. a We talk of better homes; a puri fied system of politics; a higher tone { of Christianity; prohibition, etc, but ^ the place to begin is around our firesides and in our publio schools, with a hearty co-operation of the parents, * with a corps of true and tried, high ^ toned body of noble Christian in- * structors in our public schools. ; GastoD, SC. * Catarrh Cannot bo Cured. s ? y With Local Applications, as they ^ cannot reach the seat of the disease. ^ o Catarrh is a blood or constitutional Q disease, and in order to cure it you must take internal remedies. Hall's ? 21 Catarrh Cure is taken internally, and j*l acts directly on the blood and mucous surfaces. Hall's Catarrh Cure is not a a quack medicine. It was prescril?ed by one of the best physicians in this ^ country for years, and is a regular prescription. It is composed of the Cl best tonics known, combined with 2 the best blood purifiers, acting di- 11 rectly on the mucous surfaces. The 11 perfect combination of the two ingre- " dients is what produces such won- 11 derful results in curing Catarrh.

Take the posf - 1 f .1 ? siomues oi a Kernel 01 corn ior ^ illustration. Planted an a piece of r< earth 2 by 1 feet, and it will produce a two ears, each containing 400 kernels, a: or an increase of 800 per cent, in ei four months' time. Where is the fa trade or business in any city which tl will return half so great profit per i\ annum on an investment? The ^ growth of vegetation pays Nature? she grows rich. And if a field of corn increasing at this marvelous j rate, does not pay the owner, there surely must be something the matter ? with the man. It is not the plant, or the field, or the business which is Q at fault. Forever and ever, so long jj as the world holds men, there will be , b a demand for food, and every particle of it must come out of the earth or the sea. And every ounce of food is, first of all, a plant. Forever and ever, then, will there be a demand for plants. The growing of food 0 plants can never cease to be profitsble if the right man and* correct 0 management are at the helm.
