We clip from the Presbyterian, F Due West, an editorial which would be well for every paper i the country to reproduce. It as follows: I "Many sick persons have been reatly injured by the number F people who have called to see lem.

Inasmuch as the trustees of the graded school have met and appointed a committee to take the needful steps in bringing the question of a new school building before the people, we v ish to arouse the community to the real condition of affairs. Whether he is an experienced school man or one who knows very little of the requirements of a modern school building, whether he is a resident of the town or a stranger, whenever anyone thoroughly inspects our school he invariably goes out of the front door pronouncing it a veritable fire-trap and snvinc Vinw nn^AmfArtoUln j o WWW MUWUUVi WWUIt and ill constructed it is. While Collinwood too late is deploring the defects which caused her appalling disaster villages, towns and cities are directing their eyes upon their school conditions. May the children of our town not be offered as a burnt sacrifice on the altar of ignorance and selfishness! The first business of the school is to make men, and then to make them the best possible citizens. Let us not keep our children surrounded with depressing conditions, and thus mar the r lives on the very threshold. The school is expected to train the children for home and business life, and for ten years the children are entrusted to its care. Parents, shall the first requisite, the safety of your children's lives, be neglected? Cross Hill, ia Laurens county, with a population of 500, has just completed a $5,000 school house; Latta, in Marion county, with the same population, a $14,000 school building. The town of Chesterfield, with a population of 300, has issued $8,000 in bonds for a new building. The village of Tatnm in TVtorlKAm onnntu v,..?? .? 4K/V/I V/ VUUiJ^ , has a $6,000 brick school house. Seneca voted 5 to I for a $15,000 school. Rembert, a hamlet in iSumter county, of fewer than 1100 souls, has a $3,500 school building. Is our town smaller than these, or are we poorer than their citizens? Do we not care , to do as much for our children as we can? | Some say you will put a debt on our town for our children to ; pay. Both the educated and the ignorant are agreed that money put in an education is the best possible investment for children. Why then should they not be expected to help to pay for something which is wholly for their welfare. J. Harvey Witherspoon.
