C., handed us his Post Office Box I Number-378--and says "Tell 'Em to I Write to Me, if they want to know i anything about Garren's Tonic." Mr. Rollins is a very popular man * in his County and holds the personal I esteem, confidence and admiration of i all who know him, therefore, any i statement that he might make can be i counted on as authentic and reliable. It is for this reason that we are proud of the statements that Jhe has made regarding the good that he personally i derived from taking Garren's Tonic. I His statements are as follows: "It is with pleasure and without ' hesitancy that I recommend Garren's i Blood Purifier and Tonic as the very I jest medicine that I have ever used ' for constipation and indigestion.

MEDLIN, An enjoyable social affair of the week was the picnic at Scott's Lake Saturday given by the members of the ninth .and tenth grades of the Summerton school in honor of the eleventh grade.

But we are very glad in deed to state that we will not be forced to murder up our' page with the kind of dope we did last week to fill up space. For we have what we con sidert a very interesting communica tion from the pen of Prof. Gist Gee 1nd we are very much of the opinion that such a movement as agitated by Prof. Gee would prove worth wh;le and we are very grateful to Prof. Gee for allowing us to use this com m11unicntion inl our correspondence as well as to others of the teachers for some interesting news items. Professor Gee's Letter. The school should be the center of the life of a community. In our church life, we have our denomina tions and consequently divide and scatter our energies until sometimes they vanish into thin air and not as much is accomplished as if all work ed together with a common aim. The writer sometimes thinks that in a crmmunityv where there are several weak dciioniinations that the best, thing for the people is to unite in making one strong force for Chris tianity and make it felt. This is not the object of this article, however, and we want to stress the fact that the school is the one thing in every 'oimmiunity in which all can unite andl use it to build the ideals of the neighborhood. A school should not. be siiniply a building with teachers to meet the pupils (lay by day and hear lessons, if this is the case, then t is not a real school. It should b~e the I place wvher'e the charaicter's of the1 pupils. are, shapedl, where they get a their inspiration for after life, wvherer their visions of their own p)ossib)ili ties arc d iscover'ed, where the futur'e i ritizens of our great countiry are tra med in all of the ideals of the right type of citizenship). In ord(eir to ac rn.>mplishi this, the school must pro-t viode miore than just the lessons f'rom .. hooks which often lo~e their aottrae tiveness because there is iio variety in the work. Sonic one has well said that educa tion should fuirnish knowledge, at itude, and skill. The Iiri't is grant dI by all, and most people are wtill mag to let it i'est thei'e. If the pupil makes his pass and goes up a grade Syear, then most of us feel that. the mr' children. But unless it. is creat nag in the child a right aittit ude to. ward'c his wor'k, toward his home, to wvard( his community, aind towar'd his Mlaker', something remains to be donea.

DAVIS, Summert itude is even more important than lie knowledge, for this may come ith experience if the attitude is ight. In helping to bring about the roper attitude, we place self govern - lent and class organizations among he students in a high place. If Ie ponsibility is placed upon the student ven for the control of himself he ves not often disappoint you. He Cels that he is doing his duty be ause he has the manhood to do it vithout compulsion and often even lie worst students respond to dis ipline of this kind better than any ther. Then sometimes it is a good hing to let the student body admin ster discipline upon one of its own members this helps both the punished n(d those who have to feel the burden f inflicting the punishment. It omes near to life after school and nakes the students think. Education should also fit one for ome special kind of work. For this eason the larger schools are more (early fulfilling their mission along his lbne than the smaller ones. bnual training, domestic science, griculture, and similar subjects are ew taught with good results even in he 11igh Schools. In order to have bese thines, the school must meet eltan requirements andI for this rea 1)n we are deprived of them-l-e -.se we are so small that. we cannot iford these things from the financial inndpoint. This makes it necessary, f we want these things, for us to get ogether and build larger and strong. ,r schools. There are too many little one or two encher schools in our county. Let's et tlem) together, unite their forces, uild larger, stronger schools and nake the iargest pognible develop Ient along the lines that our child en need to have them made. The ad antages are all for the united or con olidated schools ,and the difliculties re not as great sa they seeni, if lie matter is approached honestly ath a view to dloing the best we can or our children.

Larger number in each class ant this stimulates to better work in the class, as well as develops a strong Class spirit. 8. Provides a larger group of chil-. dren and make,: student organization for self government and other student activities possible. These things help to keep up a high morale among the students and make high standards of all kinds more easily maintained. 9. Experience has proved that un der these better conditions students remain in school from two to five years longer. 10. The attendance in consolidated schools is better and this regularity gives better work in all lines. This may he brought about by the. new in terest taken by the students in their improved conditions along all lines. 11. Larger numbers make possible Literary Society programs, mock courts, dramatic performances, and sinnlar helpful activities. 12. Makes possible the or ganiza tion and <ilection of playground ae tivities. This is one of the most po tent factors of school life and has been neglected all too long in our con tact with children. Play is natural an' I healthful and should be encourag ed constantly. 13. High Schools could be made so miuch stronger and more efficient if a number of the weaker ones united and made a real High School. Divide the county into three districts and make Surmmerton, Manning and a point im Salem into real strong High Schools. 14. liigh Schools of the proper kind would provide a good start for those who fail to go farther in their school work.
