TUESDAY, NOVEMBER 28, 1922. Education Week throughout th< country begins December 3, and con tiniioa thrnncrVr n<HH?nThor O Vt-nt-t phase of school life is to be studiet and eP'orts made to carry the mes sage of inspiration to every connnun ity in the lard. The problem of th< rural school is :o receive part eulai attention in this state. It is our great est po nt of weakness. Our countrj schools are pocrly equipped, oftei poor'y taught, and seldom up to j standard that is satisfactory. Th? Citizens Educational Association oi South Carolina is the organizatior that is seeking io cooperate with thi National Educational Association ir this state in the drive to be mad< in this state during Education Week It is primarily the purpose of thi state organization to press home thi needs of the rural schools. To this end a committee has been appointed ii each county to carry forward th? drive. The committee for this count) met yesterday and decided to hold t meeting in each school district in th< county during the week. The meet ;ngs will be held in the school houses Two or three speakers will be sent t( the school chosen for the meeting The plan is not to hold a meeting ir every school house, but the school! have been grouped so that each meet ing may be attended by nearbi schools. Dr. F. M. Ellerbe, Count] Superintendent of Education is i member of the committee for thi: county and will cooperate fully will -he movement, it is hoped that everj patron of the scP.ool will try to attent the mVeting in his school district. Or Friday night at 7:30 o'clock there it to be a grand ral'y of patrons, teach, ers and citizens throughout the county in the Union High School auditorium. At this meeting a distinguished educator from some other section of the State will deliver an address, and the delegates to the Slate meeting to be held h.tcd in Columbia, and to appoint n legislation committee to confer with the county delegation and to secure their cooperation and, if possible, this endorsement of the purposes of the memor al which is to be presented to the legislature tl is winter. It is to be hoped th.it the teachers throughout the county will give their leartv surport to the movement and will see that the notice of the meeting to be held in her district is car iit-u uiu patrons 01 ire scnooi. ine suggested program is published in t< day's Times, and will be published several days in succession. This effort, properly made, will give a threat impetus to the cause of education, particularly the rural school problem. fc Our cat says it is a fine rule to quit eating just before you feel that you have enough.

Means of pro- ] moting and preserving the health of i the nation are receiving an amount j of public attention far beyond that which prevailed before the opening j of the celebration in September. The National Convention of Prac | ticing Physicians and Surgeons, and the International Congress for the i Study of Leprosy, both of which were ] held here a month ago, gave a strong I impulse to the movement which has < been gathering headway for the last < few years. < As part of the official program of 1 the celebration, corner stones were " laid for two enormous government i hospitals in this city, work on which j is now under way. A federal department of public health is now in operation pending the establishment of a federal Ministry of Public Health, 1 which probably will be created in the near future. ; Work is about to begin on the con- ? struction of a lepers' isolation colony in the state of Rio de Janeiro which will accommodate about 7,00J patients. The International Con- : gress for the Study of Leprosy gave close attention to the figures of the ' Inst official census, showing that there 1 are more than 15,000 lepers in Bra zil, and as a result it is reported that ^ the Rockefeller Foundation head r quarters in this city are about to * , close, the work of prophylaxia against 1 the hookworm and other intestinal ailments being handled from now on by J the fdeeral and state health depart- 1 ments. * Another sign of the times is the 1 . intense campaign now being waged ' by the newspapers of the country ^ in favor of the development of outdoors sports, especially football, row- ' ing, tennis and boxing. The South r American Olympic Games, and the 1 International Footfall (soccer) Cham- J pionship, which were held here during the first part of the Centennial Celebration, have whetted public taste j, for athletics to an extraordinary de gree. Kirpo's vie ory over Tracey, in Argentina, has set Brazilian nerves tingling with the idea that South America may produce a champion in s the fistic sport, with the result that o the young hopefuls of all Brazilian h families are now wearing the "smok- a ed lamp" badge of that pastime. e The main object of this new en- r thusiasm for athletics is a stronger Brazilian race. w Official figures published on Bra- o zil's one hundredth anniversary of 1< political independence showed that u there are 145 persons living in Rio t? de Janeiro who were alive when Bra- b zil broke away from Portugal in 1822, 1 that is, a century or more old. The t< oldest member of this brigade has d passed his 148th birthday. ' ' c Woman Suffrage in Mexico d Makes Slow Progress t] ii Mexico City, Nov. 27.?The wo- r mans suffrage movement is making some progress in Mexico, but high ? government ofb^ia's are inclined to <j believe that the time is not yet ripe e to grant the franchise to women. For t several years a desultory propaganda to this end has been conducted here, e but the movement received tie greatest impetus recently when Rafael Nieto, governor of San Lusi Potosi and former secretary of the treasury, submitted a project to his state legislature providing for woman suffrage. Governor Nieto's action provoked much discussion in the press, which believes that it will fail of passage. Secretary of Interior Calles stated recently to newspapermen that, although he strongly favors woman's suffrage, he is of the opinion that a croat deal of educational work must I he done before it can be accomplished. The state of Yucatan extended the vote to women several yeirs ago but reports from that state tay it has not been generally used. Siemese women stain their teeth b ack with be'.el nut to denote their married State. National Disarmament Would be National Suicide No men hate v ar so much an solIdiers, especially commanding officers, vho see the horrors of it and view ;he situation in the broad light j( ,'eath and destruction. And yi: the r.telligent officer who realizes that preparedness is essential to national ife cannot fail to realize that the talk >f disarmament, and of steadily cubing down our small army is a crime igamst future generations. It has recently been very appropriitely said that while we employ 280,[)() p I ce in thU country to protect turselves against the criminals tome, we have an army of less than .ne-half to protect ourselves against possible criminals elsewhere in the <hape of nations prepaied to fiht, and sometimes eager for the fight, if they think like Germany that in such a fight they could win nat.onal expansion by looting us. Ii an Armistice address General Pershirg. referring to the conditions In the East, said: "'The World War,' taught us that, ive cannot regard with indifference the gathering of war clouds in those regions of the world in which we do not appenr to be directly interested. For even with t.io utmost desire to re. main aloof from the contest with the utmost desire to renin n aloof from the contest which had been waged during the period extending from 1914 to 1917 we were drawn into it in defence of a great principle. "So W3 cannot regard as irrelevant 'o our interest3, and as matters of no mncern to our national life the crisis whch periodically arises over the <torm centers of international strife. It is no time to abandon our purpose to take reasonao'e precaution for the future. Since the armistice the tension of conflicting interests has often almost reached the breaking point, where, indeed, actal armed confl.ct' has not been i nprogress. "Already strong pressure has been exerted for our inter/ention in the Near East. Demands are daily made that an American military force be dispatched for participation in beh ilf ,f our former Allies. Strangely enough, those who appeal most loudly for headlong intervention are those who most vociferously condemn any ar.d all preparation for sudden emergencies."?Manufacturers Record. It's Your Chum Writing in an eastern newspaper, C. N. Grieg, well-known jorunalist, rays: "The home paper is your chum, your pa] and intimate friend; the big city daily is your casual acquaintance; the magazine is your occasional visitor. And when it comes to advice, we trust a chum and an intimate friend first, don't we? "Yon may not know it, but the small-town paper not only delivers more friendly snd intimate hon\e.in?. :L..4 1. 1- i. lUciiLX tiixuiau mi, uut* it la irusicu far more widely than the big city dailies produced by men so far away :hat they can't possibly be in touch vith your community." There is advice to remember when v?>u want to sell something?offer it to hose who read the home-town paper1, lecause they have long ago learned hat they can believe what they see n its columns. It isn't so full of advertising that your message will be >uried, as often happens to the adverising in big city dailies. If you have :ot learned the truth about adverising in your home-town paper, then 'ou have not learn all you ought to ;now about successful merchandising. -Exchange. Nassau Now Has an Alert Fire Force Nassau, Bahama Islands, Nov. 27. -Since last summer when this city uffered considerable loss by fire of ne of the great winter tourist hotels, Tassau has had one of the most aleit nd efficient fire fighting squads, quipped with the finest auto appaatus to be bought. On October 31, last, great alarm ras felt when residents looked out f their windows and saw great biljwing masses of black snioke pi ing p from the eastern district of the own. The ruddy reflection of the laze was reflected all over the city. Tie fire fighters rushed madly out o save what part of the lovely rejiences could be salvaged. After fruitlessly searching city and ountry for miles to the east, the auntless "smoke eate-s" returned to aeir station, and sat outside watchig the most gorgeous sunrise ever eported seen in all the islands.
