I S: I ~' I There were two slight errors in the g fine statement of the People's National Bank of Prosperity which we published in the last issue, and to ^ make the correction we are printing the statement again in this paper. ec And by the way that is a fine statelie ment of this successful banking in- n( SIUUUUI1. ^ A part of the letter of our Pros-: perity correspondent had to be held over that was intended for the last issue and it .s printed today. It was jj, not the fault of the correspondent cj but of the editor in not making u correct calculation, that it was not jn all printed on Tuesday, but thetse of things will sometimes happen. i ur ? ?F< Do not forget or fail to have your name on your club roll book.

The attendance and the al enrolment were far beyond the ex- qi pectation of the authorities. This er is fine, and we wish that every teach- tr er might realize and know the value th of such a school and attend. ar There were a number of visitors us present at the opening but the reg- W ular attendance is more than a hun-, dred. This is the second year for this school and it is graitfying the V success which it has attained. V1 The religious exercise at the open- m' ing was conducted by Pastor C. A. 131 Freed and then short talks were w' made by County Superintendent of ^ Education E. H. Aull, Rev. E. V. Babb of the Baptist church, Rev. C. A. Freed of the Lutheran church. Dr Geo. B. Cromer, chairman of the board of trustees of the college, Dr. UT E. B. Setzler of the faculty, and sc President S. J. Derrick. Prof. Jas. lL* C. Kinard is the director of the school and he is a hustler and a L? th worker and knows how. en The state department of education otin an effort to improve the teaching profession is making it almost neces- \\r sary to attend summer school in or- ju der to secure state certificate, and then the teachers generally are real- ] izing the importance of better preparation for their work and are seek- ]? ? - ? n mg summer scnoois. it means wen 0t for the children. There is more in- ]yj terest in education and the people f0 themselves are coming to a realization that the training and education of the children is about the only way in which the problems that confront us may be solved. i The Herald and News rejoices at the success of the summer school at ar Newberry college. The faculty is r0 composed of practical and able in- d structors and much good is being m accomplished at this school. It is now or a fixture for Newberry. 1 m Death of Mr. Tom Abrams.

They found 2.8 per cent ' the white children and 4.2 per cent ^ the colored children to be mental- ^ defective. From these facts it is,1 timated that there are not less than 1 irteen thousand feebleminded ^ t?i c;.j. ( nooi cnnuren m uur siaic. hji.\ ?_! 2S in South Carolina have initiated \ fecial classes for the proper training] 1 these handicapped children. One j 1 mdred and three are being cared i 1 r at the state training school for J* e feebleminded at Clinton, South. J irolina. Thousands of these unfor-p nate children are yet unrecognized 1 mentally defective and are con- J s ant trials to their parents and; ? achers, both in scholarship and be- ( ivior. Even for those recognized c feebleminded the efforts made by j ( e public for their training and j eatment are pitifully inadequate. I ] t;cwil Liicv ai c a uiuuiaiiv.& <tuu u indicap to the normal children of eir classes, actually retarding their ogress and slowing them down to e level of the inferior mind. In ter life the sad combination of a tildish mind and adult years brings ese unfortunates into conflict with , ciety's customs and laws. If un- , Ic ained, these mental defectives usu- j !y become dependents and delin- ? tents. However, it has been prov- r i that by special training in indus- ^ ial and vocational lines some of. em may become self supporting)1 id many more may be trained to efulness. ?. hat Shall We Do About Feeble- r mindedness? ( There should be established a tra- c lftg clinic with a trained staff to ^ sit the schools and diagnose the ^ ental defects of the children, and to, j ovide medical service for all those; lose condition may be improved:^, ere'oy. The state training school' r the feebleminded should be errged so that more of the unusually fficult cases may be properly train. Special classes should be inaug ated in all of the larger public j v hools of the state so that these: * ebleminded children might have the 1 ^ nefits of trained teachers, not only teach them, but to visit them in * i t eir homes and instruct their par-; te in the proper care and training!* them. |?
