News and Notions says there is 1 doubtless no other profession so 1 commonly used as stepping stone to enable many to enter a professiou usually considered more \remuner tive and exalted than teaching. Perhaps society itself is partly re sponsible for permitting .this .in trusion, but the intrusion is being made, whether fostered by society or not. What a common occurrence it is to see a young man "keep school" law or medicine, or a young lady "keep school" to earn money for her wedding trouseau. Society, pat rons and often trustees are unable to distinguish between the teacher who scientifically trains and devel opes all the God-given physical and mental powers of the cmid# 1 In rank, teaching should be class ed as a profession next to me minii try, or perhaps co-ordinate with it; for the teacher details with the mind while it is in a plastic condition and very capable of being molded Then, too, the teacher, by means of daily association and personal contact with the child, is able, in a manner, to guide and assist the mind of the child in character-building He helps the childls mind to do right-thinking and right-acting. Many people l*ave erroneous ideas about teaching, yet almost every patron knows just precisely what it behooves the teacher to do at all times. How common its the idea that the teacher sits in an easy-chair in the shade for a few hours in the day and coins money with very little effort. Really, the true teacher is, and must always be, the most diligent pupil in'the school, regardless of his preparation for > an experience in teaching. /The teacher's work is not confined to a few hours in the day, but begins with the opening of school and ends with the closing. Just as the body hungers and thirsts daily for the various food substances, so necessary to sustain life, so the miud hungers and thirsts daily for the food necessary for mental growth and development. This mental food must be supplied daily by the teach er if we proceed in accordance with the laws of nature. Some patrons stilly b|rMeve that teachers should keep children in school from sun to sun. They forget that there is a difference between manual labor and mental labor. Keeping av child in school from sun to sun chains his body to a seat; but it fails to keep his mind at work. Though his body is in school, his mind is most likely elsewhere. The mind receives instruction only while in a receptive attitude. Teachers may rush children mechanically through books, but they cannot rush or force the contents of any book through the child's mind. Perhaps th*> Greeks realized the im mense responsibility of the teacher better than many others; for they employed pedagogues to attend the children to and from school and very carefully direct and guide the child in character-building and virtuous living. This lea the teacher free to impart what we term book learn ing," for want of a better term. The modern teacher has the work of teacher and pedagogue. Still his profession is regarded as a trlval one by many; when skillful experi enced teachers look into the faces of old pupils of theirs and see their own thoughts, ideas and hafjits reflected, as it were, in a mirror, we think they have just cause to think of shirking duty and shuddering at the errbneous amount of responsibility. * KILLED THE INSPECTOR. Who Had Checked Him Short in His Accounts. Postoffice Inspector Charles Fitz gerald, of Jackson, Miss., was sbt.t and killed by W. A. Sorsby, clerk in the Clinton postoffice. Fitzgerald had been in Clinton two days check ing up their office, of which Mrs. Cabaniss is postmistress. Sorsby married her daughter and has been running the office. Fitzgerald is said to have checked him up short several hundred dollars and had started back to his home in Jack son. While on the way to the train Sorsby suddenly aj^pearedd befor him, stuck a pistol to his side and fired before his victim could raise his hand. CROWDS ATTEXD THE OPENING. Theod?re Kohn's Popular Store Thronged With Shoppers. One of the most successful Fali Opening ever held in Orangeburg, was the one at Kohn's Emporium to day. Of course most of the ladies came I to see the new hat creations and according to Caesar, "They came, they saw, and they were conquered. ' Miss Rosalie Barton and her corps of assistants fairly demonstrated their expertness in giving the trade the most exquisite designs, blends of colors, and stylish headwear yet seen in This city. From the many expressions of de light and admiration it is a certainty that th<> store will have a most fav orable season. The Opening will continue tomor row and many out of town visitors arc expected. We congratulate the management for giving Orangeburg such a praise worthy demonstration of up-to-date business judgment. There is no sentiment in a mule, but a mule is different from a boy. They cannot be successfully trained by the same methods. A Big Auction Sale. * ?
