The school days are over and for j 3
the next three months the school bell ;
will be silent. The patter of little '
feet and the sound of children's voic- J
es as they go to and fro on our streets
will no longer be heard. The teachers
will now take a much needed vacation,
some going to the mountains
and others to the seashore. They <
have done their work and done it
well. We wish for them a pleasant
and profitable vacation with the earnest
hope that all of them will be with (
us for another r.inp months, beginning
in the early fall.
Deputy Insurance Commissioner J
Wharton was in Lexington recently I
making an inspection of the buildings <
and surroundings of the town. Mr. ;
Wharton was here on a similar mis- j
sion several months ago, and ho was j
surprised to find the conditions so
much worse upon his second visit.
He stated to a representative of The
Dispatch that Lexington wa9 about
the only town in the State that had
not taken the proper interest in the
matter of keeping all rubbish and
tradi, which are, in themselves, great
fire traps, cleaned up. "The fire in- |
surance rates in the average towns in
South Carolina are entirely too high,"
said he, "and there is only one way to
get a reduction and that is by removing
the principal causes of fire," he
1 ooncluded.
It is to be regretted that the conditions
along this line in Lexington arc
so very unsatisfactory. It is to be
hoped that our city father's will make
an effort to have tho ordinance relating
to keeping all trash and wasto,
which are so liable to cause a conflagration,
enforced to the letter. The
town should see to it that this impcr- I
portant work is done, and wc are satisfied
that onr enterprising and energetic
mayor will make an effort to
have the conditions remedied without
undue delay.
A Few Word3 Of Praise.
If there are any people in the county
who deserve to be praised it is the
people residing between Lexington
and Columbia?those people who have
recently worked the Augusta road.
In nearly every section of the county
?and the same spirit is said to pre- j
monv r?f t"hp r>thpr nmintipfl in I
V All ill uiauj v* v?*w v v ^ ? ? ?
South Carolina?the people depend almost
wholly upon the supervisor and
county chaiugang to keep up the
roads. And if the road9 are not properly
kept up the supervisor is "cussed"
in a thousand languages. Everybody
knows, or at least they ought to
know, that it is a physical impossibility
for the ohaingang to work every
road in the county at one and the
same time; everybody knows, or at
least they should know, that it is impossible
for the chaingang to keep up
one section of road after it has once
pat it in flrstclass shape. Yet, in the
faoe of these facts, there are those
who firmly believe that once the ohaingang
has built a road and clayed it
properly, there is nothing else to be
done. There is, however, at least one
section of the county that appreciates
the work of the chaingang. It is the j
section referred to above. The road [
between here and Columbia is now in i
apple-pie order, and it has all been *
done by the good people living along *
tVe route. It these people continue !
to keep this road up to its present j
high state of excellency?and it goes '
without saying that they will?they |
will have a road that will be indeed a (
credit to the county. All praise to {
these people who have set a:i exam- ;
pie worthy of imitation by the other f
sections of the county I

Baseball.
The Lexington baseball team met j
detout at the hands of t he Loesville :

j players from all along the line and
this, to gather with the large number
