rMR. RICE ACCEPTS V
PLACE ON STATE BOARD
"Will Serve the State From a Standpoint
of Duty?Never Sought
the Office.
The State.
| Aiken, Oct. 24.?Mr. ITayne F.
Rice, who was recently appointed a
t member of the state hoard of educaW
<tion, has accepted I lie appoinlment
I and received his commission today.
Mr. We was seen hv your correspondent
and made the following
statement:
"1 received my commission yesterda
\ and I expert lo serve.\ t inier the
ii is ihe duly of the governor lo
appoint one person from eve 'v congressional
district in the state, whom,
together with the stale superintend^pcr.t
of education and the governor,
shall constitute the slate hoard of
^^uluoalion. The governor alone is
^ responsible to the people of the state
for the fitness of his appointees to
[ discharge the duties devolving upon
them. If, in appointing me from this
r district (!<>v. Ansel did not see fit to
J consult the superintendent of education,
that is a personal matter between
'the two for which I do not
deem myself in any manner responsible.
Mr. Martin's suttempted flings
at myself, of whom he knew nothing
whatever, were so manifestly unjust,
* and his purpose sjo evident, that I did
y not consider them worthy of a reply.
"The superintendent construes exrCiov.
Sheppard's refusal to serve on
the board as an endorsement, of his
contention against the governor. I
have neither part, nor parcel in any
controversy between Superintendent
Martin and Gov. Ansel, but since Mr.
Moff-tin'a last, published letter to the
governor I can1 not refuse to serve
and thereby cast discredit upon our
Mfchief executive. This appointment
-was not solicited by me, nor by any
for me, so far as I am informed
|BHt. under all the* circumstances 1
Kel dft mv duty, not only to our chiet
Jg executive, but to the whole people ol
? the state, to accept, it and serve tc
the best of my ability."

In Baltimore, where it is claimed
literary effusions are as marketable
as white elephants, an unusual advertisement
appeared in one of the
papers. As it was in ils proper advertising
columns a ureal number of
people saw it and immediately began I
to acquirP'a tasle for reading. It
was the plaint of a business man who
wanted a teacher f ir his lit lie daughter,
and who understood what he
; wanted and expressed his desires,
"and darn the expense."
He does not wish the usual "refined
laay," but a "woman" of common
sense and good breeding. lie
| does not ask that the applicant have
, a college education and insists that
she be not academic, but wants a wo'
man who speaks good English.
Ilis advertisement follows:
HELP WANTED ? FEMALE?I
, desire to secure the services of a wo;
man?not the usual type of "refined
' lady" who is constantly on the hunt
for a job?but a masterful, dignified
woman of character, common sense
and good breeding, who is qualified
by temperament and education to
' lake charge of my Iwe] ve-v ear-old
daughter.
1 The religious convictions of applicants
are of no concern lo the adver;
tiser. nor need applicants possess an
academic or university degree, but
? their English must be sound?grammar
perfect. T would not care to seriously
consider engaging a woman who
I combined daisies and violets on her
winter bonnet, or one who referred to
( crockery as "porcelains," or one
whose elegant repose of manner is
mere vacuity, or one who bids for
sympathy by frequently recurring in
soreness of spirit, to her "past rcver
ses which'are responsible for my present
anomalous and unfortunate circumstances,"
or one who extorts re1
1 uctaut gleams of pleasure only from
mclanciiolv pangs of grief, or one who
j ivflours her face with flie incessant
fail de poudre, or one who, in man_
ner, may be likened unto a hurricane
To a woman with high ideals and
^ a low voice T can offer a com fori able
home, where no mental tasks will b.?
expected of her: courteous consideration
and a liberal salary.
It is but fair for applicants to be
. told that my little girl 1s no papa's
angel-faced dear;e. She is very liu^
man, a flesh and blood sort of coltis'.i
maiden, with an expressive countenance
and copper-colored name, and
' about as difficult to subdue as a Mexican
broncho. At present, she is at a
boarding school, and, resenting ils organized
discipline and rebelling
against the one-batli-a-week regime
^ and the monotony of slewed prunes
and stewed mutton, she promises lo be
as "good as gold and as "sweet as
' pie" if I lei her return home. The
woman who attempts lo bridle her
, must have tact, patience, determination
and mental force. I want the
( child's spirit directed, not broken.
S'ho may need all her will power some
day. Tn the proper hands she will
be docile and obedient, but at first
she's sure to buck. She realizes the
melting qualities of mv simulated
sternness, so very little aid can be expected
of me.

Good Enough For Him.
( There is a colored preacher in Mobile
who has no sympathy with (lie
modern doctrines <*f some of his
while brethren.
One Sunday evening, after preaching
a long sermon beairing upon the
("good old fashioned religious ideas,"
' the divine paid his compliments to
I he "newfangled religion" in no uncertain
terms. Finally, he pounded the
null lit and wound up with:
1 ''An' broddren, 1 wish to say that

Better a conservative interest on your deposit with Its safe
return when wanted, than a high rate and a feeling of doubt
about the principal.
A National Bank is a safe Deposit. Government supervision
makes it so. Likewise our Board of Directors is a guarantee
of prudent conservative management.
