HAIL THE SCHOOL HOUSE!
"The public school house is the
great melting pot of democracy."?
Wood row Wilson.
"The schools should become educational
and social centres for adults as
well as children."?President Taft.
"We can make each school house the
senate chamber of the people."?
Theodore Roosevelt.
"The school house should be the
headquarters of the neighborly civic
life."?Helen Varick Bosw-ell.
"I am more interested in what you
are doing and what it stands for than
anything else in the world, you are
buttressing the foundations of democracy."?Supreme
Court Justice Charles
E. Hughes, in an address at Rochester
School House Social Centre.
Speaking of schools and the part
they should play in the life and development
of the community, reminds
us that there is a vast amount of
WOrk yet to be done in this country.
Our schools, especially those in the
nonntrv districts, are far from what
they should be, and while we all agree
that this is the case, few of us are
really doing anything about it. If we
are not mistaken, the- teachers' association
of this county has fallen to
pieces for the want of interest in the
organization. This only shows how
we are allowing things to drift along,
right under the very towers that rise
above two of the greatest colleges in
the South. The city of Spartanburg
is an educational centre. Its collegia
matp it famous, vet the schools of
the county, that should be sending
these institutions hundreds of boys
and young ladies, are being neglected.
If we are to have well rounded development
in this county every school
must do its duty. With the talent j
and zeal we have represented in the
schools and colleges of this city, and
the other^ towns of the county, wei
should be able to draw a force that
would make itself felt in an educational
campaign that would attract
attention the country over.
What is more important than such

Herald.
Hail the school house! Discover the
school house. That is the doctrine we
have been preaching up and downj
through Newberry county for the pastj
fifteen months, and .even many years
before, and we have been doing it with
all the power and energy that we possessed.
It is the great problem be*
" T'flO
fore tne American ycupic wuuj.
problem of the rural school, and thatj
includes the schools in what we would
term the urban sections of Newberry
county. Tt is a great work, with great
possibilities, the work of getting the
people aroused and awakened and interested
in the upbuilding of the
schools of the country.
Knowledge and information as to
conditions must precede any perma
nent or lasting improvement, and,
therefore, it is necessary first to
I
arouse the people to the real condi-!
tions, and then you are in position to
do constructive work, for when the
people once wake up to the conditions
as they exist they will do things.

There must be a leaaer, a gum-?, mi-:
ed with enthusiasm and possessed of!
good judgment so as to give intelli-'
gent direction to the energies of thfi
p-eople on ;e they are aroused. Many J
of the people of this country, in the
urban as well as in the rural coinmun-'
ities, have not yet discovered the!
school house in the proper sense. <

you will see the community grow and
prosper. The first .step, and the im- j
portant one at this time, is to get the? J
people to see the conditions and then
you will be able to get them to act.
Agitation and publicity are very great
agencies in bringing about results,
and the newspaper that helps in the
work is doing a service to the country
and to th-p rising veneration.

ing to population and mileage of post
roads, each State to pay half the cost
of construction.
This is an excellent bill and we
hope our congressmen will get busy in
its behalf. For constructive work
along material lines, we think of none
more important now than the building
of good roads.

fnctmrtion of nur DU

pils and farmers along agricultural
lines must both come before there is
any great material advancement in
either town or country and we had
i just as well see the point right now
I and begin something definite. These
are two things for which the Herald
i firmly stands.?Laurensville Herald.
These are mighty good things for

country and good roads must go together
and it has always been beyond
our comprehension how any one could
oppose a reasonable expenditure for
these two great agencies of civilization.
Money spent for roads and the
I education of the children is an investment
that pays bigger dividends than
any other investment you can make.

Why don't those State house officers
shake hands and make up. There are'
too many big things to do to be
fanning the flames of little differences.
It is rot nice to call one another bad j
names.
Supervisor Hill has promised tc use
his motor scrapes 011 the Whitmire
; road before the 2*th ad in plenty
time to have .the road in fine condition
for the trip of the teachers to this j
town to the teachers meeting. It will
be a great trip for the teachers and;
we will be delighted to have Mr. Hill
meet with us at that time.
j A little dragging or scraping of the;
road to Silverstreet would put it in j
fine condition. Supervisor Hill is doing
some good work at the crossing of
Beaverdam creek.
We are pleased to note and to comj

grounds around the court house and
the nice cement walk leading up to
the building. We understand that
some improvements are to be made to :
the old court house- building. This'
is well also. They are needed and i
_ I
this is too good an old building to tear j
down when it can be used for so many i
good purposes and to the benefit of all |
the people of the county.
Newberry comes in for a very small!
portion of the school fund which has j
been borrowed. We have three high
schools that participate in the high j
I
school fund, but we understand that i
there was no shortage in that fund. {
We have four schools that participate.
in the term extension fund and three
j of these have already received their j

:
nre several library applications await- j
ing this money. By another year it is j
expected that some four or five districts
will take advantage of the rural
graded school act and apply for
Stat9 aid.
Just as soon as the Democrats pro
pose to have free sugar, the congress- j
men from the sugar producing States
get sour. "When free wool is mentioned,
the congressmen from the
sh-eep raising States trov to pull it ov- j
er the eyes of the nation by saying j
that any such thing would be a calamity.
And finally when free shoe leathi
er is talked of the congressmen from 1
the shoe manufacturing States put
their foot down on the proposition.
Verily there are some breakers ahead '
of those who steer the tariff revision j
ship.?Greenville News.
The trouble with the whole tariff j
discussion and the tariff itself is that j
it is in a large sense a local matter?!
that is, human nature is so constitut-1
i
ed that we are all more or less?and
generally more?selfish, and we op
t
pose a protective tariff when a protective
tariff beefits the other fellow,
but when it comes home to our own
little selves and the industries of our j
section tlujn we favor a protection. So j
long as the South, for instance, grew '

nor manufactured :nything that could j

NEWBERK YWI\S.
Hosted Furman in 11 Inning Contest
At C<?llc'2re Pnrk Saturday Afternoon.
In one of the most exciting gam^s
ever staged at College Park Newberry
bestcd Furman university in an eleven
inning contest 2 to 1 last Saturday
afternoon. The large crowd was kept
keyed up to the highest pitch at all
times by the closeness of the score
and brilliant playing by the two
teams.
The students of the college, with
pennants flying, and led by the city
band marched from the public square
to the college and then on the field
where, to the tune of Dixie, the championship
banner which was won last
year was rais-ed by Prof. S. J. Derrick.
After several yells the boys
took their accustomed places behind
the side lines and the first game of
the championship series at Newberry
was started with Browne and Brown
doing the battery work for the visitors
and Eidson and Mayes working
for Xewberrv.
Things looked- a little dark for the
scarlet and gray in the first when
Furman pushed one across the plate
on four errors. Nelson was safe on
Keitt's error and reached second when
Boland dropped Keitt's peg. Brown
fl-ew out to second but when Baker
fumbled Mobley's grounder Nelson
took third. Mobley stole second.
However Nelson was caught at the
plate Mayes to Eidson on a short passed
ball. Poteat skied to center but
when Brooks muffed, Mobley tallied
the first score of the game. Milford
?nded the inning by whiffing. Keitt,
in Newberry's half, pasted the first
ball pitched by Browne for three bases
and scored on Floyd's fielder's
choice to third. There was nothing
else doing in the scoring line until the
eleventh. In the fifth Furman filled
the bases with two down but the necessary
hit was not forthcoming. At
no other stage of the game did the
Baptists threaten to score. Newberry
had numerous opportunities to put the
game away but each time hit straight
at one of the opposing players.
The Furman team played a fine
game and supported Browne in big
league style as can be proven by Newberry
having no les than twelve men
left on bases. Brown's catching, a
*' * -A-*- ? ? TTWv'i-iri cr'a lino f^TlVP
sensational stao ayuut, o ****,_ ^_
in the ninth by Nelson, and the batting
of Jones featured for the Greenvillites.
"Miss" Eidson's pitching was truly
wonderful, having the reputed heavy
sluggers of the visitors at his mercy
throughout the entire game and was
as strong at the end of the leventh as
the first. Six strikeout, six widely
scattered hits but one pass to first
nlainlv tells what Furman could not
do. Baker's fielding also featured,
Ralph accepting ten out of eleven
chances and twas his bit t^at brought
Keitt heme with the winning run in
the eleventh. Keitt and Mayes starred
with the stick, the former getting
a triple and two singles, while Mayes
rapped out a triple and one single
out of four times up.
~ - A~^+ ^\-n hr?fh cirips was
l'ne eAuiLciiicni/ uu
high in the eleventh. With two down
Pote-at doubled to right, but was
stranded when Boland made a neat
catch of Milford's fly. Keitt started
the ball rolling by hitting safe through
short, was caught between first and
second and finally gained the keystone
cushion when Drummond threw wild.
Floyd advanced him to third on a
clean rap to right, and Josephus
crossed the rubber with the game
~ J -r-v /-V f r\
when BaKer irammeu
tre. Tliis hit, however, counts but for
a single as that was aii that was needed
to tie the score.
Just a.Note or Two.
Newberry choked the bases in the
second and third but the clean up man
was missing.

inning was one of the features of the
