But the librarian wants many more. For two years the library has had no help S from the town, the assistance formerly1 given having been withdrawn during C the administration of then Mayor c Blease. t Hon. George S. Mower has, since the beginning of the work, given the use of a room. Without this help, its t d.mise would have been sure. The g Woman's club makes an annual con- e tribution for the purchase of books, and the only other means is from the suiscribers. To those who have never I joined a most cordial invitation is ex tended to visit the room on Monday af- e ternoons from 3.30 until sundown. t The librarian makes this plea to ? every reader of this article; please,'t as soon as you lay the paper aside, look carefully over all your books, t and any good ones that you have read but do not care to keep, bring them to:17 the library. Many others will not have read them, perhaps. If the chil dren in your home have outgrown their books, let the library have them'p for other children less fortunate. During the past week there were calls for any of Sweedenborg's writ- v ings, Leckie's History, and any of Channing's writings, or Hamilton's. 'None of these calls could be respond- s ed to. Lave the 'books at the Mower r company's store, with your name, and a the librarian will appreciate the con tribution, and acknowledge it. Or ring t 9052 and the librarian will call for the o books. q a * * * * * * * 4, * * * * * i * * * i * * * SCINTILLATIONS. . t * * c By Squibs. a * ~a * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * *fi The rough weather made it mail t4 walker 'stead of mail rider, if John e * * ** *** **** ***fi Peterson did try a horse.

To those who, like the writer, have found themselves alone at times dur ing the past week, shut in, as it were,j by the snow, with only their thoughts' for compa.ny, andl more especially at M the twilight hour, how fast came troop- te ig back over the bridged years the, of memories of other times, long ago, B when the snow lay over everything, I and in the stillness all around, how d vibrant the echo from dear- voices-ti hushed so long. Then, they looked on scenes like -these and voiced the'ir en- ti: joyment. The charm of it all appealed ai to them also; and in like manner did1 their sympathies go out to any suf fe.rer.

'o be Held Saturday in High School Building-Miss Leila A. Russell of Winthrop, to Talk. The County Teachers' association ,ill meet in the h1:h school building t Newberry on Saturday, January 20, t 11 o'clock promptly. Miss Leila Russell, of Rock Hill, -ho is superintend<"nt of the rural chools of York county, and also con ected with Winthrop college, has ac epted an invitation from the asso iation to be present and speak to the ?achers. Miss Russell is an exper ,nced teacher and will bring a m es age which will be worth while for ie teachers and trustees and' public enerally to hear, and the county sup rintendent of education very much opes that the auditorium will be fill d and that every teacher who can ossibly attend will be present. He has sent a personal letter to ach teacher requesting him or her attend this meeting and has also ent a special personal appeal to the ustees to meet with the teachers. There are many matters affecting te schools of the county which would eceive benefit if the trustees could be iterested enough to come and discuss he various needs of the schools. The >gislture is now in session and there ill be some matters concerning the ublic schools upon which legislation as been asked. The trustees should e in position to givie expression to rhat would be 'best for our schools in sis county. Elsewhere is a copy of the letter ent to the trustees. If any failed to eceive this letter he should take this s a special invitation to attend the ieeting on Saturday. Elsewhere in zis paper also may be found a copy the letter sent to the teachers re uesting them to attend the teachers ssociation and to take an interest in The gathering of the teachers and 'ustees to exchange ideas and is ass methods can not but be helpful nd beneficial. The weather is bad ad the roads in the coi;.,try in a fear il condition, but the county superiu ,ndent especially requests the teach rs and trustees to ma.ke some sacri ce to be present. Any of the citizens of the city who iel an interest in this work will also a welcome to the meet'ng. Church of the Redeemer. (Rev. Edw. Fulen wvider, Pastor).

To Attend Meeting County Association C Saturday-Circular Letter Sent to All Teachers. The following has been mailed by th"e- county superintendent of educa- 01 tion to each teacher in the county, Sc calling attention to the fact that Yissj si Leila A. Russell will speak to the as- a sociation on Saturday, and as she is te coming all the way from Rock Hill, sC the county superintendent very much ;c hopes that each teacher will show m sufficient interest in his or her work o' to come out and hear Miss Russell tr discuss ma.tters pertaining to the work i in the rural schools: o, The Letter. Il I desire to call attention to the t County Teachers' association which is to be held in the high school build ing at Newberry on January 20. Miss Leila Russell, of Winthrop col- I. lege, has promised to attend this meeting and will talk to the teachers and others about the rural schools t and their needs, and I hope that ev ery teacher in the public schools will c feel it as much a part of his or her duty to attend the county teachers' l meetings as it is to teach in the school. tr It should be your purpose to get all tr the information that it is possible that: m will be helpful to you in your work, cc and the teacher who is doing the right p: kind of work in the school is not do- tr ing that work alone for the salary o] which is paid, but for the help that ai comes to the teacher as well. s< A professor in Harvard college on h e one occasion said: "Harvard college pays me for doing what T would glad-- a ly pay it for allowing me to do." tr 1t1 Of course, you could not afford to pay for the privilege of teaching, be-,,p cause you need the salary, and pos sibly more than the salary with which to live, but you also need the work, p: especially, if you are an enthusiastic y< and conscientious teacher, as I hope you are. t Some one has said that the "work of the plodder, artisan, can be easily measured and justly rewarded in dol- te lars and cents. It is not so with the work of the artist. Most of his income x to never gets into his pay envelope. He must get much of it in the delight of 0 the dream and the vision, in the joy of the doing and the realizing." .K "The ideal teacher will work for thet joy of the working; the -mere time ser ver for his pay alone; but youi and 1.i will enjoy our work for our pay and our pay better; for the~ work." It would be a great misfortune to m the children of any school to have for! their teacher one who was considering t only the pay and looking only to the pay certificate. I hope that all the teachers in this county are interested, not only in the pay, but the work, in is which they are engaged. m Be sure to attend the meeting of y the association. sc Yours very truly,'m E. H. Aull, k County Superintendent of Education. .a Dr. Whaling Next Sunday,.t Rev. Thornton Whaling, D. D., who was to have preached in Aveleigh Presbyterian church last Sunday, was C prevented on account of the heavy mow and extremely cold weather. Eowever,. we are pleased to announce hat Dr. Whaling will fill the pulpit in ext Sunday, January 21, having writ- b en .to Dr. Felham, clerk of session,:W hat he will be here Saturday. This re anuouncement, we a.re~ sure, will. be alt an interesting item to the community s well to the Presbyterian congrega tion, as Dr. Whaling's reputation as a orceful and eloquent divine has gone m efore hinm and he will be heartily Vth wlcomed to Newberry. Dr. Whaling da s now the president of Columbia The- W~ logical seminary but has been the te: astor of several important churches TI hroughout the South. The communion of the- Lord's sup-! ca per will be observed and the public s cordially invited. P. New Passenger Enigines aurens Advertiser. A The Columbia, Newberry and Laur ms railroad has just bought two hand ome passenger engines, but they are using them for freight service. Now, wouldn't it be nice if one of these en- ge gines were attached to three nice, new passenger coaches for Capt. McCain and. Capt. Little to ride in every morn- I ing and evening! That would be fine* and then we might pull out our "pass"* (due respects to the Newbei-ry Obser-* ver) and go down to Columbia feeling* like we were riding in some style.* Really now, we ought to have a nice and new train. Nice depots have been built and a great deal of good work .as 'been done and is being done on the roadbed, but if a little bit more were undertaken a.nd we had that fine Mi train, we might be satisfied for awhile. At least, until we begin to want some thingerlse. TRUSTEES EXPECTED. )unty Superintendent of Education Urges Trustees to Meet With Teachers on Saturday. In an effort to arouse more interest i the part of the trustees of the! hools of this county, the county iperintendent of ducation has sent! special letter requesting each trus e to meet on Saturday in the high hool building in connection with the unty teachers' association, and the e"eting will be held promptly at 11 clock. It is hoped that as many: ustees as possible will attend the eeting. The county superintendent education has received word by tter and otherwise from several ustees who have promised Lo be' "esent and he very much hopes that rery one will make an effort to at nd the meeting. The following is the letter sent the ,ustees. It is possible it did not ,ach some of them and if any trus e failed to receive the letter, he iould not remain away on that ac unt. Letter to Trustees. Your name appears on the list of ustees handed me by Mr. Whealer, as ustee for .......... school. It is y purpose, if possible, to secure the -operation of the trustees in jr. roving the rural s~'lobis. . I hope Lat I may be able to have your co )eration, and would be ad to have iy suggestion as to the needs of your hool, or any other matter that will >lp to promote the educational inter ts of the children in the -country. An tive, enthusiastic, and interested ustee helps to make an active, en usiastic, and interested teacher and ttron. Your acceptance of the posi on of trustee- is evidence that it is >ur purpose to do' what you can to 'omote the educational .interests of >ur community. If this is not your irpose, and you are not carrying out at purpose, then you should not hold *e position. I am very anxious to have the trus es meet together, so that we may .1k over educational conditions in e county and find out what is best be done to create more interest in tr country schools. I think it would a good plan for. the trustees to at nd the Teachers' Associations, and especially insist that you come. to e meeting in the high school build g at Newberry, at 11 o'clock, on muary 20. Miss Leila Russell, of' inthrop college, who is devoting all her time to rural school improve ent, has kindly consented to meet! ith us at that time, and I am* sure at she will bring a message which ill be helpful, not only to the teach ,but especially to the trustees, and desire to impress upon you that it your 'duty to secure all the infor ation you can that will be helpful in - lur work. I know that you will get~ me helpful ideas iby attending this' eeting. Drop me a card and let me ow if I may expect you. Again king your co-operation and support the educational work of the couri , Iam . Youi's very truly, E. H. Aull, unty Superintendent of Education. Lost. A nice, plain, straight hickory walk g stick.
