Jalapa and O'Neall Schools Thinking /- j of Establishing Rnral Graded Schools. Superintendent of Education E. H. = Aull visited the Jalapa school on Friday. Miss Hawkins had spent the week in the community and as busy as 9 the farmers are there was a good ats tendance at the school house Friday, te Mr. Aull talked to tlxose present and j.0 explained how they could secure State/ | aid for their school by voting a four a | mill tax. The petition has already ?r been signed by the required number of ly free holders and electors and the elec[o tion ordered, and it is said that here is .y very little opposition to the tax, because it will give them a good two ,y teacher school. The school this year I is taught by Miss Kate Thompson, a h most excellent teacher, who is doing ' * it- _ - il J tr, i-nn. gOOCI WOTK, Dill ine atitsiiuciuut; xo i.w large for one teacher, and the district n could very well arrange for a two I >P j teacher school.

Ragged fielding by the Wofford lads contributed largely to their defeat. The Newberry team, on the contrary, jt played a consistent game in the field at all times^ making several good j plays.

Recorder .Jno. \V. Earhardt fined Travis Hart $10 on Saturday morning, which he paid, for refusing to stay out of the Newberry Cotton mill aft-er being forbidden entrance there. An interesting story is back of this. Hart "had married a voune lady who was working at Oakland. Life was not smooth with them and she left going to th?e Newberry mill. There he still pursued her, and was so insistent and persistant that after a couple or more times in disregarding the orders to stay out, he was taken before Recorder Earhirdt with the above result. Recorder Earhardt had a case in his j court Monday morning that was a lit- I tie out of the ordinary. For the first j ^ Via VQO hopn rpfnrripr a I LJliliC Olavc Xiu>j - www blind tiger put in a plea of guilty. Harry Kleckley, colored, was up for selling whiskey, and pleaded guilty to the charge, throwing himself upon the mercy of the court. The recorder sentenced him to pay a fine of $50 or serve 30 days. Policeman H. 0. Stone made the arrest. I * The trial of Jno. Cannon on Friday afternooD before Recorder Earhardt for violation of the whiskey law resulted in a verdict of guilty. The fol-1 lowing jury sat in the case: R. C. I Sligh, A. F. Lambright, J. H. Clary, W. j n Wilson ,T. T. Dennis, and E. M. | Lane, reaching their v<?rdict in less than five minutes. Motion for another new trial was argued on Saturday morning by the defendant's attorney, Mr. Lambert W. Jones. The recorder refused to grant a new trial and passed sentence of $75 or 30 days. Notice was given of appeal to circuit court. ^ TSVVT ATTOtfOBILES. I A Xewberry Party Returns From Spartanburg With Sew Automobiles. There was an automobile parade that was not seen by the public early Saturday morning. It was very early when the line reached the city. . In | fact it was two o'clock in the morn- j ing, and the procession was tired. | Those taking part in it were Messrs.! Jno. R. Scurry, Sam Johnson, W. C. -- ? , ,, m A Dor.

Jolly companions are agreeable Even one may enjoy the temporary companionship of strangers, who they have never seen before. There is pleasure often in mixing in with a srowd and catching the spirit of good fellowship. But while all these are j delightful to meet occasionally, they they do not take the place of real friends. You would never think of * ft +V? A unoosommg >uur&eu iu luciu tio wc little child does to one it loves. There is no reserve when you are with them. You can trust them in the dark and you have the satisfaction of knowing that they trust you. You never have, after the manner of young lovers, professed your friendship. There is an unspoken language which is known and % interpreted by you. There is no use for words. That affectionate little child does not have to say "I love you," when it comes up and kisses your hand or nestles in your lap. It may not say a word, but you know its heart is overflowing with love. The same is true of friends. You know that they are true and loyal. They would rise at midnight to minister to you if necessary. They will defend you against the attacks of the vicious or even mistaken people. They are a great help to you when in vigorous life and often perplexed by various affairs. They are' a comfort as age creeps on and. bring a joy and solace to you which the busy, bustling world cannot give. You[ may have read the story of the man, when discussing the merits and fine character and universal kindness of a neighbor, said: "He is more than a brother to me; he is a friend." Read Emerson's essay on "Friends." It will help you. From it we copy this paragraph. "I awoke this morning with devout thanksgiving for my friends, the old and the new.. Shall I not call God the Beautiful, who daily showeth, himself to me in his gifts? I chide society, I embrace solitude, and yet I am not so ungrateful as not to see the wise, the lovely and the nobleminded, as from time to time they pass my gate. Who hears me, who understands me becomes mine?a j oil Hme Nor is na puaacaoivii iui v.?? ture so poor but she gives me this joy several times, and thus we weave social threads of our own, a new web or relations; and as many thoughts, in succession substantiate themselves, we shall, by and by, stand in a new world of our own ere ation, and no longer strangers ana pilgrims on a traditionary globe. My friends have come to me unsough. The great God gave them to me." Prize for Composition. A gold medal to the school boy or girl, between the ages of 10 and 15 who writes the best composition, not* to exceed 800 words, on the repair rna Hc ic ana ui *za 1 m * uuuw, vv be awarded by Logan Waller Page, director, office of public roads, United States department of agriculture, Washington, D. C. All compositions must be submitted to Mr. Page before May 15, 1913, and the medal will be awarded as soon thereafter as the compositions can be graded. The compositions may be based on knowledge gained from books or other sources, but no quotations should be made. After many years experience in dealing with the public road situation of the country, it is Mr. Page's belief I that ignorance on the subject of repair and maintenance of roads is as much the cause of their bad condition as any other one factor. It is "expected .that the competition will bring about a better 'understanding of the subject of repair aud maintenance in the rural districts.
