LTo the Editor of The Dispatch: I know of no other word in the EngkL lish language that should occupy a ly higher position in the mind of man be than that of education. Since the rs * rlJ creation of the world mind training .at has been an important factor in the ,es development of civilization. Ancient Greece and Rome placed education nt above every other phase of progress. Egypt, though exercising various cuser toms of idolatry, advocated freely the idea of educating her people, ik Thus it is today in every country though Christian or heathern. Howls ever* we shall n?t attempt to review other countries in our limited disin course, but let's see what Lexington >r* county and South Carolina are doing lp along this line of development, al When we note the fact that South , Carolina out of nearly fifty States g" stands at the bottom round of the ladof der in education and that Lexington county out of nearly forty counties ^ occupies the same position, we can Id plainly see without further comment ! what we are doing. Yet should we !be surprised at this shameful condition? Certainly we should not be when hundreds of our citizens turn ,u <5leaf ears to the calls of education J* and rejoice when men fail who do try to work for the best interest of their > e, county and State. We have only to recall one past week when a two cent ^ levy was voted down in a part of our _ own county by a two-thirds majority ~ of married men with families. Why ' was this done? For lack of interest ? in fViio rmsof nonoo - af i 11 if fhp 1U VUiO VUM0V ) VWAAA a A wuv v? E tees don't have a first class school Jf and treat these same men's children oig better than any others, the non-levy s- men will be the first to kick. The great cry to-day is: I have no learning and I have made a living let my ? children do the same. To such I say y that if you value life so low as to think that a living is all you are to ^ make in this world, then, I pity you. Gentlemen, are we selfish?, Do we al love our children? If you have no children does this release you from the duty you owe to your fellowmen? v. Certainly not. Can we not plainly see to-day that the young men and d* women of our county and State, who ? have not at least a common education, are lingering in the rear of those jr> who have embraced the golden opportunities. Are your children not as ss good as other people's children? Certainly, then why not manifest the ap? preciation of your offspring by worky ing more for the cause of education. What does an educated county or yj State mean to their citizens? It _ means development; both intellectually and morally. It means rapid growth in every branch of industry; it means independence; it 'm^pns ^ Christian advancement. CAu we conoe ceive of an ignorant man rising to prominence? Can we conceive of an , ignorant community prospering? Can _ we conceiye of an ignorant State being elevated in the eyes of her coun' try? No. Then what must we naturally conclude from the above premises? Must I say that we, as men, J" as a county, as a State, are indifferent toward this great cause? I must. ~~ How many of our county and State officers came out last year on an eduD. cational platform? Answer for yourx self. On the other hand^ how many i ad T 1 al came out on some kind of a liquor _ platform? Answer for yourself, hnd | you can plainly see the lack of inter- { estin education. Brother citizens, let me speak a word of truth and com[fe mon sense in your ears: Do we not _ know that if our county and our State j would rally together and build school it. houses and institutions or learning ior the rising generation and educate our boys and girls that we would have no | need for half of the laws upon our statute books; we would have no ' need for our politicians td discuss liq_ uor problems and other issues of as low a caste as the above; we would T, have no need of voting a special tax for school funds; we would have no __ need for two-thirds of the prison houses in our country. But the cry would be onward and upward toward 3. the mark of the high calling. Some m will say, I am not able to educate my children. To such I say that is no I excuse; give your boys and girls your encouragement and if they have a ; spark of grit beaming in their bodies they will educate themselves. Again some say, I can't spare my children, i Fathers, mothers, do you expect any good thing in this world without making a sacrifice for it? How do you suppose father Abraham felt when God commanded him to sacrifice his only son? Did he not manifest his willingness to do God'9 command? Do you firmly believe that God in (M tends for your children to be brought g up in ignorance when he plainly tells S us "to seek knowledge''? Is educa8 tion not a God-given faculty? Is it g not the instrument through which g God reveals to man the hidden sejf crets of the uniVerse? If past generations had not produced some educated men where would we be in in? ventions and discoveries? If we do J not mean to exercise the God-given 1 \ opportunities we have for a higher development of citizenship, then, I say let's substitute Chinese customs and laws and have ancbstrial worship so we may not expect any progress. No other section of the world has better advantages for propressiveness than our own immediate section; yet we are at the foot. How long will we remain there? North Carolina seven years ago occupied our now exalted position, but she became 1 ^ a/1 nrvnrli. ctSIlcinitU UJ SLIUll tt illiiilliiaigu wuuition and by the free co-operation of her citizens she has spent an enormous amount of wealth in building schools for her children. So to-day that State is decked w ith institutions of learning and she is no more at the bottom, but she has behind her now about twelve or thirteen States, and is said to be making a more rapid progress in education than any State in the Union at present. Oh, you say South Carolina is not able; just as able as any other State. Do we not possess the same qualities of our sister State? Have we not fought just as bravely for our independence? Has fate placed us at such a low mark of intelligence that we cannot rise? Certainly not. But the only remedy is: to put our shoulders to the noble cause of education and push forward i this great work. When Christ commanded us to train up a child in the way it should go do you believe he ment for that child to be brought up in ignorance? If you do then you place a very low estimate upon your God-given treasures. "Go and teach," is another divine injunction proving to you that God meant for his children to be versed in knowledge. Thus we see the moral responsibility we owe, not only to | self, to county, to State, but to God. | Hence can we afford to become careless and indifferent about such a high duty? We owe to every citizen a loving service, and how are we to render this service unless we woik together as peaceable citizens for the betterment of our country. And could we find a more serviceable channel to work in than that of training the minds of our rising generation? Japan, though an almost heathen em pire, is now making more progress m education than any nation in the world. Why? Because she realizes the necessity of trained minds and hands. Did not America introduce this idea to Japan? Then must we as a county and State fall short of living up to the same principles we taught our heathen empire? Would I be venturing too far if I should say that | every citizen of Lexington county and South Carolina should veil their faces in the presence of citizens of other onward moving states? Should our county no tfeel humiliated over the fact that we are behind and are making no move toward further advancement? Friends, let's take on more energy and zeal and resolve to push forward this noble cause. Let's free ourselves from the old selfish idea of pulling apart and renew our courage and work together as man and God intends for us to do, not because its our privilege, but our duty to do so, and after having done this our county and State will stand out as monuments of victory to their* noble sons and daughters.

Nusbaum, Batesville, Indiana, writes: "Last year I suffered for three months with a summer cold so distressing that it interfered with my business. I had many of the symptoms of hay fever, and a doctor's prescription did not reach my case, and I took several medicines which seemed to only aggravate my case. Fortunately I insisted upon having Foley's Honey and Tar in the yellow package,and it quickly cured me. My wife has since used Foley's Honey and Tar with the same success." Derrick's Drug Store.
