Hendersonville, Sept. 30.—We still hear good reports from the Hender sonville Graded School, and from all accounts, the Institution must be something for its patrons to feel proud of and worthy of all the praise given it. The faculty consists of three competent teachers, and with the earnestness with which they have entered into the work they cannot do otherwise, than to bring success. A piano for the school is being purchased, and a large class of workers is anxiously awaiting its ar rival. The tiolin class has already been started, and also a choir and choral club has been organized. T. D. FENDER Branch ville. S.

Board $18 per month, Taition remitted in special Mr Chairman. Ladies and Gentle men: It has fallen to my lot to talk to you all tonight. The talk will be an extemporary one, as I ha%e not had the time to prepare it, but I will endeavor to talk on the topic of ' education. The educational advantages of ! our country are better than ever before. Unlike your fathers’ kindergardenda; s. which were unlet tered because they could not help it. Youth of today can get an education. I am not afraid to say it is in reach of every boy and girl; and boys, I do not believe that your financial circumstances have as much to do with it as your determination. Your fathers had not modern equipped school rooms you have; they had not the qualified teachers you have, and 1 do not see how they did as well as they really did. Rail roads have traversed our country. Prosperity has brought many con veniences and advantages and showered them down around about us. Log school houses of little nar row incommodious type have been tbrardowp and frame houses have been erected in their stead; and along with these superior education al' advantages, we find progress along every line and in every avoca tion. Yes, as a result of better education, the good efficient teachers of today will continue to hear this song of prosperity as long as they are interested more in the develop ment of the raw material of mind than they are in the paltry dollar. Educational matters are receiving stronger impetus today than ever before. The encouragement is un precedented. Opportunities are unique. You boys, who know the history of America’s great men, know that your training has begun in an easier manner than theirs, and the hardships which accompanied those great men are not as laborious with you. Enviroment has facilitat ed your school course, and as time goes on, I believe that things and business of every kind will gradually assume a different phase, t>ecause of the advancement and betterment our day has over our ancestors’ day. We live in the greatest epoch written thus far in annals of his tory. Seeing these facts as I do, let me beg you to attend ,school. Not only cultivate your fathers’ farm, but cultivate your brain, and culti vate it first, and then you can facilitate your method of farming, and fertilize your farm with brains. Drinking whiskey has Income a disgrace, and if it were not for piti able conditions of the illiterate, it would be a disgrace to go through life under shadow of ignorance. Today there is no excuse much for gross ignorance. To go through life uneducated is to go through it with out many blessings and enjoyments that are in store awaiting the bright boys and girls of today. Boys do you not know that in proportion to your education will your usefulness to your country and your home be? I know that your fathers are alert and alive as to your best interest, but notwithstanding all of that, you want to launch out on the tempes tuous sea of life. better prepared than they were, because it takes bet ter prepared men than they were, be cause it takes better preparation. The zephyr of competition blows harder. Bend your efforts towards leaving ignorance tonight, that you shall not go through life handicap ped a weakling. Assert your young manhood by taking some great man who started out in life, as Lincoln, and climb from the botton round of the ladder to the very top—to acme of fame. May God speed the time when every boy and girl shall have, to my mind, one of the greatest at tainments it is possible for them to attain—an education, a character shield. Fathers, have you that burning desire to have your boys rise to height that many boys under similar circumstances, no weightier, no larger, just unsightly, just as good- looking, have risen to? Yes, some of you have. I am glad to say, the desire of the fathers and mothers of our country to train their children all they can is in evidence everyday. See that your boys are taught not or soon j coiiir when the father will sec the ; imi»nrtance of giving his children i the very best training of which he is I capable. The day demands it. There is not anything more necssary. The important boy of today sees the great need of a broader vision of | life. He great need of better training, which is a consummation greatly to be desired. If I had to say my last word to the rising generation tonight, I would say, boys and girls, go to school every bit you can and go determined to learn. Don’t get miffed with your teacher, he is right and aln&st invariably you are wrong. I would say fathers send your boys and girls regardless of circum stances. M.

Picture if you can, a rough log cabin far away in one of our back- woods counties. The only thing per taining to beauty was a lovely wis teria vine which clambered in pic turesque confusion over the door way. This same little vine which clung so lovingly to the shabby little porch should have given some idea of what was beyond, but I have seen more than one look of surprise from strangers who passing beneath the “purple showers” would catch a fleeting glimpse of the interior of this unpretentious little home. In one corner stood a bookcase which reached from floor to ceiling. Not a costly sectional case, withjhand- some, unread volumes, but rough shelves neatly covered, and here could be found most anything from “Alice in Wonderland,” or dear old Grimm to Carlyle, Milton, Shakes peare some old and torn from much use, some in shabby coverings, but still the reading was there, and they showed they had been read. The table was covered with papers and magazines while on the plain, white washed walls were such pictures as these: Millet’s “Angelus,” “The Gleaners,” Adam’s “End of Day,” Corot’s exquisite landscapes, Raphael’s “Madonna,” and many others. Some of these were “Perry” pictures, but most of them were cut from magazines, but they were be fore us and talked of daily. It does not take the costly paintings to teach the children the beauties of art. And last, hut by no means least, was the piano, a relic of by-gone days of long ago, and over this hung pictures (also cut from magazines) of many great composers. Such was my childhood’s home. Why can’t the farmer lad in over alls and "sun down” behind the plow handles quote Shakespeare, whistle “Schubert’s Serenade” and appre ciate it as well as some silly little ditty? Why can’t the daughter, as she washes the dishes from the even ing meal, look out over the western hills, see and realize the many beau ties of the gorgeous sunset such as no artist could paint? We were taught these things and we were bred in the far (backwoods, and days are better now than they were then, and there is no need of so much ignorance and roughness amonj? the farming people. Any way I know this, no matter what success comes to us or what good our personal family may do. we will attribute.it all to the loving in fluences of our childhood in the little cabin neath the purple wisteria.
