OUR SCHOOLS. Published Monthly. MOTTO: "IS it not time wo wore doing some thing to keep the i ural district? from iK-lng depopulated hy people seeking better schools than they have? % Whenever rural commu nities have beou drained of their lwst blood and brain, and the remaining citizenship ro duced to a kind of peasantry, South Caro lina's prosperity is at an end.''-W. H. Hand. Communications for this column should ho ad dressed to Miss Marye lt. Shclor, Westmin ster. South Carolina. Westminster Graded School. I was very muoh impressed and in spired by the BUOOOSB of this school. The "Class of '07," who, "standing with re 1 .'i ant feet,'where brook and river meet, womanhood and childhood fielt," acted well their part. Miss Heeder read of the lives nf South Carolina's great mon. Tho lives of great men should bo studied, for we should not be ignoraut of our owu people. Mau utitussaid: "It is a shame for a manto live as a stranger in his own country and bo uninformed of her affair , geography and history." Wo put gre it stress on her groat mon. Why not her great wo men, for wo cannot have great men with out great women, for the "hand that rooks tho cradle and trains the child i iles tho world." lam sure thoro isa j bright outlook for our oountry, for the graduates, so far, are girls. In Westminster Abbey sleeps Eng land's greatness, but in this West min ! ster is to ho boru greatness. Prof. M. E Rrockuiau's farewell talk I wa? very tine, and here is tho syuopsis: "I want tho parents to catch tho senti ment of it. 1 never entered tho class room without prayer. T thought only \ puro thoughts while witi. my class, for 1 I wanted them to act well." Paronts, we need more Buch teachers who realize that the child is as clay in the hands, to make I or mar. Kev. Geo. T. Harmon, in presenting J tho medals to tho young men, gave them i the precious words of bis teacher, Dr. J James H. Carlisle, who presonted him his medal. Tho boys should follow the 1 footprints of this mau, who ?B a human copy o? our Lord. When tho young mau was presented with the medal these thoughts came to me: How could ho help being a scholar, for in his veins is tho blood of martyrs of church and Stato; liko Timothy, a good mothor and grand mother, a pure father and wealth to givo liim aid, and then I thought of somo children in tho town who wero bred in sin and miBory; whose parents, almost ' demons, havo no dosiro to educate them. : flow hard, and if loft to tho freedom of j their will, tho brilliant Solicitor whostood thoro before tho "Class of '07," ai d j spoke of tho "Success of Lifo," will see these children somo day in tho prisoner's dock, and will say, "If the good pooplo had tried to reform their parents and i take tho children out of tho crimes, it might not havo been." I believe in inherited greatness and in inherited evil. What is bred in the bone must co out. Johu Caldwell Calhoun ? could not help being a statesman, for his j family were noted citizens. In tho Jour nal of American History (first quarter) we lind tho hero of Eli/.abothtown waa James Caldwell, an uncle of John Cal houn. Rev. James Caldwell and his wife were martyrs to the cause of liberty. Rev. Caldwell's wife was shot by the British, and in the next battle wadding for the firelocks gave out. Caldwell gal loped up to his church, yelling the Psalms rest on the foe, shouting "Boys, give them Watts." Bret Hart bas beau tifully sung of this deed. What makea greatness? Study, refinement and a pure lifo, which we all owe our country, and it is our duty to educate all tho white children around us, for, in a few genera tions, educating the heart and head, even tho lowest will rise. It is the duty of the Stato to compel bor children to go to school. Tho call comes loud and clear now for every individual to speak and act for our children. They must be in school. This is the white man's coun try and shall bo while we keep our white people educated. The success of Westminster is not in hor banks or stores, but in her handsome school building and Behool. Kvery dol lar spent in that building will return twenty fold to tho town. Wo heard on all Bides "Tho success of our school and town is due to our big-hearted hanker." Boys, let mo toll you why he is success ful. When a small hoy ho gavo his all, fifty cents, to start a groat work. Well, I will not toll, but ono of South Caro lina's noted men wanted to start a great movement, but no help or kind words came, hut at last tho little, boy gavo bis I all, tho first money to-, a homo and sehen,] where thousands of boys and gnrls havo boon trained, and you cannot pick'-.up a paper but what you will see 8omet'd;ii)g aboul this groat institution of learning. , Wo are dVdighted to know that Jesse S. Carter gavo t.wo handsome gold medals to tho schools. VThis is tho way to help your town. \ Another thing thatVwe noticed: Most Of tho giris wore raised il) rural districts, and going to town to1 -fjot advantages. What will bocomo of tho \ bright girls who live ont on tho farms yvho cannot got these advantages? Isn't it? the duty of town and State to lend a helping hand to poor schools? Maryo K. ShcVor.

BARNETT, 10-27* Westminster, S. C. Looked for a Race Riot. There was considerable excitement at Rhem's, on the line between Georgetown and Williamsburg counties during seve ral days of last week because of a threat ened race war. The Governor's office in Columbia was constantly on the lookout for trouble. It appears that on Satur day a negro boy rode up to Rhem's store and hitched his mulo to an upright post supporting a shed over a platform. The animal jerkod away and pullod the up right post down. Louis Rheni, son of the proprietor, rebuked tho boy aud the boy becoming impudent, young Rbem slapped his face. Shortly afterward, Tonoy Scott, tho aged father of the boy, mado his appearance with a large stick iii his hand and started toward young Rhem. Soyeral men in tho storo inter rupted and took tho stick away from Scott. They may have also used him rather roughly. That night Scott died. Excitement grow as nows of tho matter sproad among tho ncgrocB and on Sun day Beveral hundred of thom, men, wo men and childron, from all tho country I around, collected about Scott's houso. Tho women incited the men and danger from violenco began to grow. Tho whites also collected in considerable force and the sheriffs of Williamsburg and George* town counties repaired to the soouo with posses. The Governor was kopt in close touch with tlie situation, and was look ing to be called upon at any moment to order out a largo force of troops. He did authorize tho shoriff of Georgetown to call out tho Georgetown company. It is claimed that tho old nogro Scott did not dio from violenco at the hands of tho mon who took tho stick away from bim in Rbom's storo, but that his (loath was duo to heart failure, broughton by ex citement. Some Giant Cabbages. Tho Cordele Daily PoBt is making a great to-do over an 18-pound cabbage raised near that city.
