We had forgotten all about the split-log drag for an issue "r"*T - *" ? ^ n v oTinlnsxifi; Or tWO. We leuuci to the Newberry News and Herald, and call upon all our readers who have not already don# so, to lose no time in supplying every member of their families with one of these indispensable articles.?Chester Lantern. It is dreadful for you to fail to mention the split-log drag, but we will excuse you this once. To get some people to see what is good for them you must keep everlastingly telling tJbem about it. "Keeping everlastingly at t brings success." If the Daughters of the Confederacy desire to have the schools named af ter some citizen, we would suggest for the Boundary street school the name of Piter. It is true that he was a native of Virginia, but the years of his young manhood, and in fact, his entire life was spent in this community, and there is no man durng the lasi; half century who did as much for the education of the mothers of this community as Capt. Pifer, and it will be fitting that the school, which is near his late residence, should be named for him. The Herald and News is always pleased to agree with the ladies, and especially the Daughters of the Confpderarv: we cannot, however, en dorse their proposition tor the change of names in our schools. We think it is all right to change the name of tine Speers street school to the Pope school, or probably it would be better to call it the Fair school, as it is in the ancestral home of the late Simeon Fair, who was a prominent citizen in his day of the county and State. If we are to name the other schools after distinguished men, surely there have been enough men in the history of Newb&rry county interested in educational matters wthose names should be honored by calling the other two schools after them. We do not just at this time recall the names of any that we would suggest, but certainly in a history covering more than a century there should be someone who was sufficiently identified with the work of tihe schools and the development of the community whose name might be honored by calling one of the schools after him. We do not mean by this to detract in the least from the names of Hampton or Calhoun, but let us, if we are to name our schools after men, select some Newberry man, and we would suggest some man who has passed to the great beyond.

About the Schools. Ftiday, December 5, is the last day of the first term of the Newberry city schools. LA.11 examinations on the work of the past twelve weeks have been finished, and records are being consolidated by t&e teachers. When this work is done each pupil will be given a term report, which will show the exact standing in each study. On each of these "term reports'' will be found space for a parents report. The schools want to know what other regular duties the pupil has besides school duties. For instance, if a boy chops wood, milks cows, hoes the garden, or carries papers, or does any ot.ier useful work; and the girl makes her own bed, helps cook, or does other cores that mav helo to risvelon the power for usefulness, the teachers, for every reason, ought to know it. These or other facts about each child may be embodied in this parents' report. It has been suggested by several interested parents and has met 'the heartiest approval of tee teachers xnai uie amerent schools of the city organize at once Parent-Teacher associations for the mutual benefit and general improvement of the schools. These organizations may do untold good for the schools in getting a closer cooperation among all in the school life of the child, in beautifying grounds, enlarging the libraries, etc. Several physicians of the city 'have volunteered to give the public school ; pupils free ph} Jcal inspection. The night school at West End, | which is a part of the city public ! schools, has 64 students and three teachers. j It is said that there is a yegg trust ! in this country.?Rock Hill Herald. * X 1 Don t know aDout tne yegg irusi, oui < drop the y and it hits Newberry.
