The county superintendent of edu cation requests The Herald and New, to call attention to the meeting o the County Teachers' association o Saturday at 11 o'clock. In speaking of the meeting he said: "The meeting will be called promptl: l at 11 o'clock, and will not detain the teachers more than one hour. It is urgently desired that every teacher i the county attend this meeting. would especially invite and -urge the attendance of the trustees. We are tc discuss at this meeting, the physica improvement of the school building and grounds, and we are to have witi us Miss Elise C. Rudd, who is at the head of the Rural School Improvemen association of South Carolina. "I think that one of the greates needs of our country schools today is the improvement of the school build ings and the school grounds, for I be lieve that a large and a very import ant part of the education of the chil dren is the environment of the schoo room, and the appearance and neat n e or the building and grounds. I: I could arouse the patrons as well a: the trustees to the importance of thi: work, they would be surprised witi how little eftort they could make thei; school buildings and grounds attrac tive and comfortable. It is sad, how ever, that this is greatly neglected ii a great many of our rural schools. I does seem to me that the mothers o the children would take a little mor interest in this work, and if the would form an improvement associa tion in their district, and co-operato with the teacher and encourage her they could accomplish great result with very little effort. With this it view, I have invited the trustees an( patrons to meet me at the schools oi my visit, but so far I have not had at good attendance as I would like. A several of the schools a number o: the patrons and most of the trustee, have been present. "Of course, I would not be under stood by this to minimize the import ance of thorough training on the par' of the teacher, but that is not all of the education. "I will, as I have in the past, noti fy the teachers and trustees of th( date of my visits to the school, anc I hope that they will circulate the in. formation to the patrons and invitt the mothers as well as the fathers 01 the children to meet with me and talli over school condition. "But I started out to ask the teach ers and trustees to be present at th( county teachers' meeting on Saturday and hear what Miss Rudd has to say We will discuss other matters also if any one has any proposition to- sub mit, which will be of interest to the schools of this couznty. The meetina is public 'and any citizen is welcomt to be present." I DR. CO0K WILL RESIGN. Regretted That He Will Tender Resig. nation of Pastorate of Clayton Memorial on Sunday.

Suffers Stroke of Apoplexy in Colum bia--No Prognosis by Physicians Thursday Afternoon. Dispatches to The Herald and News from Columbia state that Col. George Johnstone suffered an attack of apop lexy at about 3 o'clock on Wednesday afternoon, and that he was taken to Knowlton's infirmary. At 2 o'clock on Thursday afternoon a dispatch from the Columbia Daily Record said that Col. Johnstone was conscious, and that his affliction, the technical name [ of which was given, was that he could recognize objects but could not name them-this, along with the other con sequences of this form of apoplexy. - Col. Johnstone was conscious at the time of this message. The message stated that Col. John stone was at the Colonia hotel at the time he was-stricken, and stated that the physicians in attendance had as yet given no prognosis of the case, - not yet having expressed any opinion - as to the outcome. Col. Johnstone had not been feel ing well for several days, having left the Lexington court on account of in disposition.

It stands alone as the only play that has been universally praised by dramatic critics in every city where it has been seen. This fact establishes its exceptional power and worth, and is apart from the evidence furnished by the three milion -persons who have seen it, far more than ever have wit nessed any other play in a like time. Such unvarying tribute from drama tic critics as has been given to "Paid in Full" is unprecedented. Many plays have been generally commended, though against all of these a critic's pen now and then has dissented from popuIar opinion. Not so with "Paid in Full." In New York, Chicago, Bos ton, Philadelphia and all leading ci ties of this country, and equalIy in the smaller ones, wherever "Paid in FuIl" has been played it has swept all dramatic writers to highest enthu siasm. This famous play will be at the opera house on Tuesday night, Febru ary 13, when it will be presented with a noted New York cast. The engage ment is the most attractive theatrical announcement of the season. When a man's out all night he's all in in the mornin.g.--News and Courier. SPECIAL NOTICES. One Cent a Word.
