Hel then introduced Capt. V. . Davis. miember of the lafxl board tif trustees, who, with his charactertstnc force and effect. made a '.sleodid ad dress bearing on the neet'. for our fu ture educational sys.tcm. in brief he Y said: -It is no longer nweessarv to nake any argumient to convince people of the need of education, that the people only got the good! things of life )V paVn . for them. that the wisdom of the a1es had settled that taxation w'as the only I fair and equitable means whereby the good thia- -educatiot-was obt:neu. that tax-dodgers would be Vith u's long as the human race exiSts, cont 'u ded that the Later evil could be mj'i-l mized by having 11.1 mcn. (2 smaller areas of which these men knew every foot and corner He held that. there should be only one school n each school i district, and that the ideai school -ii'. trict was one with the school buiding in the geographical center and that the D farthest child could reach in an 1'ours walk or half-hours. ride, giving rt.ur miles as the radius of such a district. P He also spoke of the stimulant such proportioned district would be to geod roads, and the co-oper ating together of people in getting to the school their children by using a joint team. thust mirimizing the expense of conveyance. 2 He then contended that the school trustees sbould have something to say about whether every person in hi.; dis trict was bearing his just proportion - of the burden of taxation, and that a r man's oath that he had made a true re turn should no longer be a screaming farce. To accomplish this he conten ded the ideal -school district should, e like towns and cities, have its separate returns, separate boards of assessors. and separate boards of equalization. - He contended there could be found three men as assessors who knew the real and persoxsal property of everv man in his district, and who would see that the property was returned at 60 per cent. of its present actual value and not 60 per cent. of its cost before B the war, thus endorsing and arguiu in favor of the plan of the Comptroller - General. The board of equalization he thought should be the trustees of a district whom the people thought enough of to put there and who at the' sametime knew the needs of the busi ness in their charge Should this be done he held there would be no more I short . terms, poorly paid teachers., and uncomfortable school houbes." Superintendent A. B. Gasque, super intendent of the Florence graded s schools, was the next speaker. Mr. - Gasque began his remarks by laying . down propositions, and then proceeded in an effective manner to furnish the practical sol"tions for these proposi , tions. He showed the defects and then offered the remedy, and being a prac tical teacher of years experience, his views had a wholesome ef!'ect:I He thought we had reached a point in our history where all were agreed that education was necessary, and the great question now is: How are we to improve conditions as they exist today? He spoke of the progress made in the. few years. Enumerated what the etate was doing, and what the peonle themselves were doing, and showed bow much yetthere was tobe done. Said it was the duty of those blessed with edu cational advantages to help the weak. Our .towns and cities have good~ schools, we should help to give every' e child in our rural districts the same ad rvantages. He enumerated the problems ewe had to deal with and briefly discuss Sed each as follovs: (1.) A wrong idea among our people as to meaning of ed cation of school houses. (3.) a~rent problem. (4.) Boy problem. (5.) Teach a r problem. (6.) School trustee problem. The teacher anid trustee problems be ilg solved he though't would solve all ~,the others. The consecrated teacher could transform any rural community einto almost a naradise. The right kind of a teacher can do anything in a comn munity she undertakes. Could build school houses, locate them ano keep the schildren in school when she had won the love and confidence of her patrons. The trustees, he said could help in this by employing only professionzai teach ers, when he employed non-professional teachers ho could help to make them ''professional by demanding the right. '~kind of service. He urged trustees present to be care ful in the selection of teachers. He bought the act of the legislature in ap Spropriating &20,000 to help weak rural s schools was a step in the right direc ~ ion and that this should be increased. After which Professor S. H. E d mainds Superintendent of the Sumter W'Graded schools, who, by the way, has won a reputation of being one of the best and most successful superinten Sdents in the State. was introduced. Mr. Edmunds should have consented to al low us to print his address in full, but our persuasion could not overcome his Smodesty, and therefore we can only give -a small selection, not even a fair out n line of what this distinguished educator Y 'said. He stressed: y What the schools owe to the state. IfWhat the state owes to its future citi s zenship and the essential qualitications Sof those who compose the teaching s, force. "When one comtemplaces the possbilities of a system that- successful t inuuats nitisand perfects stagered by the bright .promises of ee hope that such a system insures: and ty a government that can justly claim that it has discovered such a system may r'. with no immodesty but in the sincere . outburst of victory exclaimed: I shall . twholIly die, for I have crected for rmysef a monument more er-dJuring than ad1b'ass.

The course will be opened by the Col. n lege Singing Girls--eight in number 10 and one of the nighest priced and most Lpopular mu.,1ical and entertainment com e panies before the American public. ) Then come The Days-Elias Day and his accomplished wife Mr. Day it with out a rival as n .haracter artist.
