The Teacher's Heal Duty.
Below is a resolution adopted a few
days ago by a county board of educa
tion over in Georgia wnicn is wormy
of study by every parent who liasj
children in school. This Georgia!
board thinks that books and not behavior
are the things to be taught in
the school room and expresses itself
in these words:
"That the teacher can not take the
obligation from the parents of the be-j
havior of the children; that discipline
is an incident to teaching, and only!
necessary for preserving order; that
children must be obedient and respectpresumed
to be taught behavior at
ful to their teachers; that children are
home, and the parents will be held responsible
ffor the conduct of their children
at school; that in case of a failure
by children to obey their teacher
and abide by the rules of the schools,
it shall be the duty of the teacher
promptly to notuy me pareuus ui sutu
children of their misbehavior, and on
continued failure of such children to
abide by the rules of the schools, and
be respectful and obey their teachers,
such children shall be suspended or (
expelled from the school of the county.
as the exigencies of the case may
demand,; that children must be made
to behave, but that the board does
not employ teachers primarily to teach '
children to behave; that this is a duty
of the parents and can not be shifted
to the shoulders of the teacher; that
^^t-is the desire of th^boardthptev;
attendance upon the school, but that
it is not fair to the remaining children,
nor to the teacher, nor to the
system of schools, that disobedient and (
in school, hampering the work of the f
disrespectful children should remain y
other children and the teachers.
Chesterfield Booming. ]
From he Bennettsville Pee Dee Ad- j
vocate of this week we clip the fol- j
lowing:
"Yesterday we received a letter (
from our old friend Mr. George W. ,
Miller, in which he stated, that j
while he had not walked a sep in
two years, yet his general health
was good. Mr. Miller is a brother of ^
Mr. P. A. Miller, and father of Mr.
Harris Miller, of this city, he purchased
a plantation in Chesterfield j
County eight years ago, and paid',
eight dollars per acre for it, and hasj
refused $60.00 per acre. The first
year he cultivated the place he made!
fifteaa (15) bales of cotton on the
entire place, this year bis sons have'
already gatheiod. and had ginned
fifty (50) bales, and only about two
thirds through picking. This year|
on one and onc-eiglith (H/y) acres of
land they have aleready picked 2.400'
pounds of seed cotton, and will gath-j
er three hundred pounds more, this
2,400 pounds made two bales weigh-'
ing 506 and 526 pounds. They are
picking one bale per acre on every
acre plaptcd in cotton this year. Mr.
Miller's son Fred will sell the seed
from this 1 '/S acres at 50 cents perl
bushel, and besides the splendid cotton
crop, they have made abundant
. corn, hay, meat and potatoes. Marlboro
blood will tell even in old Chesterfield,
and the many friends of Mr.
Miller will be delighted to learn of
his successful operations beyond the
river."

If all people knew that neglect of
constipation would result in severe
indigestion, yellow jaundice or virulent,
liver trouble they would soon
take Dr. King's New Life lhlls, and
end it. Its the only safe way. Dest
