s ' % VOLUME LV., NUMBER. 93. NEWBERRY, S. C., TUESDAY, DECEMBER 9, 1919. TWICE A WEEK, $2.00 A YEAR . y I EDUCATIONAL RALLY P ST. PHILLIPS SCHOOL X One of the live and progressive Jr .schools in this county is the St. f Phillips school. Only a few years ago this was a one teacher school with a -small enrollment and a shabby sort of one room school house. The school spirit took strong hold on these good people, ancLthey built a school house with two stories and modern equip merit. Then they voted a special tax and employed good live teachers, and ( first they had a two-teacher school, and then a three-teacher school, and now they have four teachers and Lan enrolment of more than a hundred children, and the teachers say that the average attendance is just splendid. The'Brown sisters, Misses Mary and Ola, taught the school- for a year or two and had a great deal to do with arousing the right kind of school crnrif because thev themselves possessed it, and besides they are most excellent teachers and take a .great interest in whatever is for the uplift and betterment of the community, and not only take an interest but lead the movement. And .that k is all that our people in the rural F districts need, some one who will f take hold and blaze the way and ' the people will lend their hearty cooperation. Then when the third teacher was added came Miss Frances Caldwell -another fine teacher and good comr munity worker and .there were three teachers. Miss Mary Brown decided not to teach any longer, and now the ? ? !! l nr: "Dwvrrrw o SCJ1001 SII1I IlciS IUISS Vi<a jjiv/nrii u splendid worker and a most excellent teacher, and she is ably assisted by Miss Frances Caldwell and Misses Lottye Lee Halfacre who has had considerable experience in the school room and is a good teacher, and Miss Mary Crumpton who is a recent -QmnmorlanH oollece and ^tauuokb vx - is doing good work in the school. The school is fortunate in having been able to keep at lesat some of the teachers from year to year^and in having such devoted teachers and such splendid workers for the community welfare as in the school room. LThe general appearance of the building and grounds is the strongest evidence of the interest that the > teachers are taking in the school and in the community, and it is reflected in the interest that the parents are taking in the school, because the only Avay to enlist the interest of the parents, strange as it may seem, is to have teachers that are interested in . the community. Besides, this is a fine I community in which to work, the people are responsive to any move* ment that is for the betterment of L the community. There was an educational rally at W the school house on Friday. The K teachers kindly invited me to be with * 1 t ? 1 ? * **rl>at? Vf } xnem, anQ 1 aiways accept vyucu h 10 possible for me to do so. Prof. S. J. Derrick had been invited to make the speech, and I went with him. And by the way, we had a most delightful drive out. The weather ' was ideal and \^e went leisurely along and enjoyed the fine day, such days as you xpareelv find in any other section. The auditorium was filled with the children and parents and friends of the school." In addition to- the speaking and far and above it was the fine exhibits of the work of the children in drawing and writing and spelling kand the exhibits of corn and canned goods and iruits, because there was also 2 boys corn club show on that day and Mr. T. _M. Mills and Miss Willie Mae Wise our county agents were there, and W ^Prof. Armstrong the teacher of agri^ Va^ure was there, and by the way he is'^aching agriculture in ihis school a couple days each week. There were some fine exhibits of corn an\l fruits, and it was open to other communities as well as this one. Mr. Mills stated that he ex pected to have a much larger club at "this school another year, and it is > ^.vell for our people to be thinking of something else besides cotton even if i the price -is; around 40 cents, because the boll we'evil has made its advent and that means that the cotton will be cut short whether we will it or ' no. Mr. Mills presided and after a brief talk introduced President Der 1 ? - TICK V. no nniUw <1 liiysi va'vCuc;h uudress spea?:irg mainly of th? country school and the important factor it is in our educational system and the great importance of developing and encouraging it.

A. r CAPITAL NE\H ,yh (By John ra ill _________ Columbia, Dec. 7.?When Genera d, 'John J. Pershing, in command of th< :>r American overseas forces, upon hi: r. arrival in France, visited the tomt n, of Lafayette, the great Frenci ,a ?1 -1 ?U ~ ?fnn r\-f cn/ili imralimhh SOIUItri wnu wao ui ouvn aid to the thirteen colonies in theii rs struggle for independence, his cryp in tic salutation was: "Lafayette, we are here." On Saturday General Pfrshing wa: e' the guest of South Carolina's capita city, within little more than thirtj ** miles of the spot where, at Camdsr ' around a century ago, Lafayette cam< to lay the cornerstone of the monu ment which still stands there t< r' Baron DeKalb, another great soldiei >e from a foreign land, who at the n! Battle of Camden laid down his lif< in defense, of American independence ls And as General Pershing receivec *a the plaudits of the multitudes wh< r" lined either side of Main street, as he rode to the State Capitol behinc an escort of a thousand trained sol diers, he typified the glorious pari }s that American arms have played ir 1S world history during the less than t century and a half of the life oJ ? the republic. Without the aid o1 '? France in the Revolution, the terri:y tnrv whifh now romnrises the Unitec States might still be under the domination of England. Withoul the aid of the United States fron k April, 1917, until November, 1918 i- France, along with her allies, woulc ;y in all probability have been crushed General Pershing came to Colum[t bia to make an official inspection oi 3- Camp Jackson, and he was later the jr. truest of the city. At the State le Capitol, where he was tendered a're id ception by Governor Cooper, at which the people of the state were invitee :p to meet him, his hand was shaken bj te thousands. h The general has a striking soldier y ly figure, but his features were is continually lighted by a smile as he rode through the 'crowds and as he &ook hands with the people at the ie State House. His countenance is pleasant and intensely human. There is nothing cold about- him, as some y of the pictures of him which havf been published in the newspapers would indicate. . n :e He speaks clearly and distinctly IS seeming to measure his words. In his address to the South Carolina *= branch of the American Legion ol ., Honor, on the State House steps, he ? spoke very slowly, but his every word could be heard. His address was y very brief, and it was continuously 'r interrupted by applause. He said: ^ "It is very gratifying to me to have an opportunity of saying a word tc tn the members of the American Legion, :r who have brought home to the people 's of South Carolina so many laurels. 5~ It is a pleasure to be able to tell the people of South Carolina of the sern vires of their representatives in France. They sent their young men ^ as part of the Thirtieth division, pari of the Eighty-first division and as J1 part of the Forty-second, and v eil j* did those young men acquit th.m, selves; well did they carry cut the 5~ obligations that rested upon thorn on the field of battle. "The American Legion is an organization composed of 'the young it .men who servecl you in France. Theirs it was an unique experience, and it it brought them home broader and betn ter men and capable of becoming bet, k ter citizens. "Upon you, men of the American - Legion, rest the eyes of your friends s, and families. They expect much of you; we all .expect much of you, and t, I am just as sure you are going to fulfill the obligations that rest upon 3, you as citizens as I was sure when I sent you into battle that you would r, fulfill the obligations that rested upon you then. Those obligations entail the upholding of the highest *, standards of citizenship. They mean that as citizens it is your duty to + mnvollr ? ? n r] if L'UIIIUcU* uti\i v necessary, all those elements of revot, lution and anarchy whcih would destroy our sacred institutions. x, "i am going tc take this opportunity of thanking the people of Swu:h Carolina for their united support of the government and of the sol! ers s, in France during the war. it was you who gave us the inspiration to eaivry foiAvard the will of our peoj.ie, and we are grateful to you for it. I s, especially w\j.h to t: ke this opportunity to thank the women of Seu.h l\ Carol:r.a for the splendid serv! ethey rendered "hot h at home and abroad in caring: for the sick and s. * .ouv! i. o-herw'. i.-.g to the wants of our people.

Th r j was one of the ideas of the framei -: of the State warehouse law, and W? J persistently agitated by the first con ' missioner. 5' The resolution adopted by th 1 association to ask the legislature t j tax each bale twenty-five cents at th l gin for the purpose of insuring stat ; i warehouse cotton, would seem to hav -1 in mind the taxing of all cottoi ) | whether in state warehouse or no r j for the purposes of insuring the co i; ton in state warehouses. It is n< }! probable that such an act would hoi . j water, because it would hardly be coi 1 [ stitutionai to tax me cotton 01 on ) i man who stored his bales at home c >; in a private warehouse, to insui 1 j the cotton of another man who store -; in the state system. t j However, some method of mutu< 1, insurance carried by state warehoust \ | would be of great benefit, and, i [ order to be properly developed, th ' system should include storing, finam ' ing, direct sales and insurance.

Mr. Pinckney is quoted a T | saying that "he could not as a Dem< I nrttf run nn the 'anti-Grace' ticke | as he considered such action woul JI constitute a bolt from the party." ! | It is hardly probable that the ant : | Grace facion will now put out -! candidate.

Christmas. 3- Among the many who read your paper a are some, I know, who also have :e read my writings, who have written ;o to me in times past, and who mayhap > would like to hear from me again, is I owe it to my many unknonw friends :s and admirers to signify, that I have is not forgotten them; a thing that I l- have no better way of doing than through the good newspapers which i [e | have published all of my previous i ;o ! appeals for help, birthday letters and ;e j calls for contributions, Christmas ;e i greetings to my helpers, etc. e j W.idely known as the shut-in writer and author, I spend my time in the quiet seclusion of my home, in leading, studying, and writing? )t i when I am able. I am not quite so j ! strong this year as formerly, but my I interest in the work which I am tryp I ing to do, is as keen as it ever was. I )r j I am making good progress in my e studies now; and some day, perhaps, d the world will hear from "Ben Hope," the.shut-in. I have never ceased to j "dream dreams and see visions." I hope to hear from all of my good ' friends and admirers this Christmas. Any sort of greeting will be appreI ciated. While I need a little help "J I sometimes, still I am not writing this especially as an appeal for help. Yet ^ it occurs to me that there are many v, liberal givers, helpers -of the poor [land needy, who would love to light. pti the burden of my crippled, pov . erty-laden life of seclusion and loneliness, this Christmas, by a contrir_ bution. Hence my desir^ to see this 1 card printed in your paper. I j really hope that the response to my yearly appeal, this Christmas, for aid and good cheer will be bigger than e ever before. My references are good; ig teing hundreds?perhaps thousands? ^ of good friends, both known and unt" hown, everywhere, far and near, who J have contributed to my welfare and happiness,' on no evidence of the j_ sincerity of my calls gnd reality of a my need other than my appeals as ^ I reproduced in the newspapers from ^ I time to time. And without this man! ifestation of the public's sympathy >g for, desire to help, and confidence in [._ me, I could scarcely exist and my life would indeed be full of gloom. Address all of your cards, letters, 5 offerings, etc., to J. S. Love ("Ben ^ Hope,") Lockmore Mill, York, S. C. J I will acknowledge receipt of all 0 communications.
