Tuesday, September 26, 1922. i It will not be long until all the cot jton is gathered and the crop is goinjL to be short. If it is properly market ed it will bring a good price but w< do not see how ft helps the price foi the farmer to lend the cotton to th( manufacturer. Those advertisers who have ads ii our church page should change thei: ads occasional^, and to do so w< would like to have the copy in the office for the change by Tuesday 02 not later than Wednesday 'of *h< week the change is to be made. * The wise merchant is the one w'.u advertises what he has to sell. Thi: is an age of publicity and if you dc not let the people know you are hen and still doing business ^hey will for get all about you apd your business The roads are fearfully dusty a"t this time and in many places the toj c-Ail ie ViT-OQ Vi n or cinfl intft Vinlps ?3Wii *0 W* VUU14*^ 4i?vv That comes partly from the dry wea ther and partly from the characte' of the top soil itself, but we believ mainlyfrom the fact that the top soi has not been properly mixed with the soil that is there when the top soil i.* pat down. Somehow we have ar ide^ that unless you plow up your toi soil and mix it properly with the dus that is on the road you are going tc have this same trouble of the roar getting in holes in dry weather anc A 11 _ TTT _ 1 xt. _ X _ in wet weainer. vve Know inai ii true of the sand clay^ road and ii seems to us that the same principl would work on the top soil road. A committee from the chamber o commerce came to us on Saturda; with a resolution adopted by tha body asking if The Herald and News would devote a column or two once a week to matters pertaining to th . farm and improved methods in farm ing, the said matter for the columi to be prepared by the farm agent Mr. T. M. Mills. Of course we wil and we told the committe that som several years ago when Mr. Mill; was first named as the farm agen for this county, The Herald and New had suggested to Mr. Mills that w would be pleased to run just such ; column or department, and that h? could furnish the matter for it, an< we did run just such a column s-* long as Mr. MUis kept the dope fo it. We thought then that it woulc be a good thing for Mr. MilJfe in h work, and also a good thing for th ^arm if Mr. Mills was worth anything to the farm. We think so still am will be glad to run this department and we only mention this in this wa; to advise the chamber of commerc? that this idea was suggested by Th< Herald and News several years ago. Of course we shall be glad to prir anything that is for the benefit of th* farmers of Newberry county, as w have always been, and certainly wha Mr. Mills may do to help one in an: department of his work may be o benefit to some other farmer, an< why not give the results to all o/ them. I -In these times we all should wor; together, in fact we should cooperst with one another at all times, bu when the pinching times are her* then we begin to look around ?o sympathy and help. v \. ^ x ^ ^ ? > <?> 3 * ?> <S>* AMONG THE SCHOOLS $ I would be glad if the trustees o the following schools would let nrknow the name of the teacher at , each of the schools. In one or t\v of them I happen to know.that none has yet been secured, and in on or two of the others I had the nam but have not kept a record. I an I expecting just as soon pi I get a correct list of the teachers to send ou' a letter to each teacher in the rura' schools and I want the name correct: Maybinton, Central, Union Mudlir. the assistant at Indenend ence, Burton. I have made up <* list of the teadi ers so far as I have been able witl the exception of the schools namer and Whitmire high school. I am nosure how many of the twelve teach ers there last year are back agair this year, but my impression is thamost of them have returned. Leaving out this school and the schools named above there are 133 teachers in the schools of the county, and of this number 74 have returned to the same school and e^ssroom, and 15 taught in the county last school year v md 12 have taught in the county in ; .he years gone. There are 32, so far 1 is I can judge, who have never ] .aught in the county and most of 1 .hem are having their first year, < -hough some of the i>2 have Jiaa ex- 1 perience in teaching. That seems to ne to be a pretty good record and jpeaks well for the schools of the county this school year. 1 will pubish a list of the teachers just as' ; oon as I can get the names correct. \} Vnd the great majority of the t^ach-jj ;rs in the county hold first grade ^ :ertificates and I hope by another i 4 " i /ear that every teacher in the county i} vill have a first grade state ccrtifi- j t ~~ ?j A1_ *-1 ...;n ? ;aie cuiu uiul mcic ?in nut uu a. ( .eacher with a permit. I tried very; t lard this year to keep from asking j} or a permit, but it may be necessary: ^ n one or two instances. Eight of; T .he 32 are recent graduates of New- r >erry college, and two are graduates c >f the Newberry high school. it Friday morning I attended the c ormal opening of the Silverstreet c chool. 1 was pleased to see such a 2 arge enrolment at the opening of a -his school. There were 73 present c ,n Friday and that was a good be-; inning as the work does not start t mtil Monday morning, but it was a ] ine idea to have the formal opening t :nd get the classification of the chil- c iren ana give inem an opportunity v d secure their books and be ready t .o begin work regularly on Monday, r . never go to the Silverstreet school i] >ut I feel how great an opportunity 3 he good people of this community a ;re letting slip from them to have a h eal high school with a term of nine f nonths, if they would just get to- \ ;ether and make up their minds to s iave it. I have told them about it i ,ime without* end, and still they do h lot see, and the children are moving c ight on along down the road and .hey will not come this W2y any 3 nore. I mention this from time to li ,ime only because I have an interest J n trying to do what is best for the o hildren. If any one thinks that it s of any personal benefit to me for b .he establishment of a high school at j] Jilverstreet he is entitled to another v opportunity to think, because abso- s ately all the interest I have is to do s /hat is best for the children of the ommunity. This I will continue to t lo and to tell the people so long as hold my present position regardless ;f any other consideration. And ^ here is a fine opportunity right ner? t Silverstreet to have one of the >est high schools in the county. They c lave the children near enough and t hey have the property so that the ax would not be great, ana in met t would be no more than^it is now. ^ hope the day is not far distant when he. people may be able to see the pportunity that is theirs, and will :ome to realize that it is their chil- , iren who are suffering for lack of /ision on the part of the people of he community. The school this year s taught by Mr. Merchant of Saluda s principal and Mrs. Subcr who was .ere last year and Miss Rose Nichols, dr. Merchant is a recent graduate of ;lemscn and Mrs. Suber is a gradu.te of Newberry and Miss Nichols is x graduate of 'Winthrop. There is 10 reason why there should not be a ine school here this session, and I iplieve there will be. I made a talk o the children and there were a few >f the patrons and friends of the , chool present. i 1 Monday morning, that is this Monlay, I am going to the opening of the -ong Lane school. As before stated j he building has been rolled out on he highway and a beautiful lot of .'our acres has been secured and rhen the trustees get through fixing ip the grounds and painting the louse it will be a place of beauty, tiisses Eula and Chloe Epting are the j .eachers for this session. They are ^ ixperienced teachers and fine com- j nunity workers and we are going to lave good results here this session. 9 Che people oi' this community work ogether in the right sort of way and .re always ready to do what is best 'or the school and the community - - 9 nd they do it in the spirit of cooper- ation, and that is the only way to ac- ^ omplish anything wort.!: wh'le. Tuesday morning I an: going out o Bush River school which opens on 3 Monday. The same teachers are >ack in the same class rorms and they vill do good work here. Mis3es 4 'Ionts and Livingston are good workers and that is what counts in the .chool room as in other things. i I desire again to call the attention g if all teachers to the fact that they nust have a state certificate in order Lo be paid, and that all certificates ^ :hat have expired must be renewed,, md that I will be more'than glad to; assist any teacher to secure a certifi-' ?ate. If the teacher is not at fault "n securing a certificate or in having; one renewed that is all right, but if you have your certificate and it hasj not been recorded in my office do not :ake it for granted that I know you have had yours renewed, but send or jring it and let me have the record Df it on file in the office of the coun :v superintendent of education. j, E. H. A. j 1 TWENTY-ONE YEARS Looking forward it seems a long i lime and a long way to go, but look-} ng backward over the journey it does 'j lot seem near so long nor so far. fVhen the journey has been success-! Jully made and you know that you j lave made friends along the way and j { ;hat you have given even a cup of; :old water to some poor traveler and , hat you have spoken a word that has | j lelped some' struggling soul or that -i i J :cTu have planted some flowers by tfte j oadside, and you have the conscious- j less that you have done the best you ;, ould and that you have not turned 1 ( t de2f ear to ihose who needed you, ;c hen it is a real pleasure to look back i ver the journey and recall the days! < >f struggle and the ups and downs, j md you can have some consolation | md that feeling which comes from i luty well done.

Morris has been in business so' c Dng in Newberry, but it is so because;v rlorris says so, and you can depend i n what he says. He has been in the same line of (c >usines? all the years of his residence iv n Newberry apd his store has been Ja erv near the olace it is now. He is I K elling dry goods and clothing and' hoes and things of that kind and he j > offering some bargains. Now is i he time to call and look the goods jr ver.
