li Is a siid commentary that there'

Ishy; the work of moulding and
shaping Hie ehTxractcrs of our clill
dreii should not be left to inoxper
iehcod hands, yet very c i f t <_* i i we
leave such important; work to mere
novice#, juftt out of collegee. W?
employ a skilled architect to erect
our bointa, yet often leave <ih? char

which It vastly more Important, to

'Cod alone can give them the facul
ty.' ? 1'edagogy cannot be learned
out of books alone experience also
U nOceasary. Neither Wlnthrop nor
the Cnlve.sity of Houth Carolina can
turn out teacher* ready made.
Tiie Judge spoke of the training
of a dozen or more of Month Car
o.inaa prominent mqn, such a* Cal
houn, l<ojiKKtreot and Judge Hurl,
by that noted teacher, Dr. VVaddell.
iii? biM ret was that that great
teacher wuh conkoerated to his call
ing and this ia the kind of teach
eia we should have and must have
in Houth Carolina if our men and
women of tomorrow are to rise to
the Htandard that ban been tiet in
the pant. J 11 Ht think of it!! We in
Houth Carolina are only paying $;*
per yer year per child for educa
tion, No prog ret hs can be made
on r h 1k pitiful uum. Your fathers
and mine paid from $30 to $40 a
month for our education. Compe
tent and well trained teachers
a'-onld be pild $100 per month.
What our school# need Is more mo
ney and 'more common sense.
The grand jury ' should inquire
how many white children of school
ago are out of school. It is true
we have no compulsory attendance
law but If some parents wore pre
h -Med for not sending their chil
dren to 'school I lie. very publicity of
their neglect might bring about
g> (1 'p' u'!h, though they could not
b< punished for it. I have not said
anything about the negroes because
It 1$ needles* to ss<y that they are
industriously educating their chil
dren. They need no compulsion.
Ilia Honor touched on the morals
of 1 he ouonty being In the keep
ing of the grand jury, mentioning
particularly the crime of adultery,
especially among the whites.
Ills Honor touched on the illicit
soiling of liquor; those blind ti
gers who are .selling the' "rot-gut
a'ut'f" containing poison which is
slowly killing the people for the
a''l<e of a few paltry dimes. Me
cln rjveterized tjem a? worse than
as afslna. "(Jo after them," said
ho "Of all men I despise most tho
b'l'id tlf^ors. It is time to. call a

lM*y im Ci MUM?d by Failure of Hv*r
bu?rd U> Build Hiding.
A Chronicle mau Tuesday arier- i
noon accompauled Mr. Kd. Harrison, j
of the Tucker & Laxton Co., ovar
the fit# of the ^ater and light j
plant now being ereoted by the
Commissioners of I'ublic Works for
the City of Camden. The work la
well under way, except for the de
lay caused by the failure of the
Seaboard to place a Hiding near the
main power plant. To haul the ma
terial i hits distance by wagons from
(ha depots would coat a consider
able amount per car, and as thia
Is out of the question the work
must necessarily be delayed, which
1m costing the company and the city
a considerable sum.
Kxcavatlons for the foundation
of the main power stutlon to be
located near Spalding Junction have
Ikmmi made and all is ready . for
the placing of the foundation that
have been held up by the railroad.
A force of hands under the aupeiv
10 tendency of Mr. Fondell are now
at work on the auxlUlary pumping
station located on the edge of 1)1
eoy's creek, at the head of the old
Factory Pond, whore will be placed
the pumps to be automatically start
ed from the main power station.
Here Is being built a cement hasln
which is fed direct from the at ream,
and in turn will bo forced to the
main power plant the water passing
thru three separate filters, insuring
absolute purity. From here the
water will po to a standplpe located
on the highest point of Jumelle
I1I11, affording an excellent pressure
in case of fire.
Iiy the end of the week poleB
will have been placed on all streets
north of DeKalb, and it is expect
ed the wiring will be begun in a
short while.
Leading from LaFayette Avenue
to York street, and from Marked to
Church on DeKalb street the city
will have a white way, the equal of
any city in this section. Lights
will be placed every 200 foot on
each side of the stret, erected on
ornamental iron stands which will
contain five lights each. These
lights' will be manipulated by an
automatic time pwitch, which will
bo set to burn until the business
lmurs are over, -then they change
to the arc lights.
The foreman's attention was call
ed to tlie kick made . by the Civic
League in cutting the trees lir or
der to wire the streets. The men
svy that they are used to this?
'hat they gel this handed to them
in every town. But state that they
always try to do as little damage as
possible to the trees.
Store Building Sold.
The large two story store build
ing on Main street, occupied by
I ho Enterprise Mercantile Co., and
formerly t ln> prcpety of the Villo
pigue estate was sold this week to
Capt, L. L. Clyburn, of DeKalb,
The sale was made by the Hank
of Camden thru the real estate agen
