No use to siiout about the virtue •f tho piaao or other prizes. All 4 * Pars become familiar with them. Nov is the time for steady deter mined effort, the kind that wears and tears and makes character in the Mag. Every pne of these con testants who have been working for the prise will be the better for the effort even though there Is only one piaao and only one who can get it. Who Is to be the one? That is to be the momentous question. Do they at times see a vision of the dray stopping at their door, the moa unload, tramping into the house with the beautiful instrument, the reward of their prow,inesS and en deavor? How much interest did you take in such a dream? Have you not dreams of you^ own? And how would you feel to have them reallsod? Don’t you think you would have very much the same feeling could you in some way assist or have assisted in the realisation of some such laudable ambition? Try it and see. Put forth the effort. Bear in mind some of the contestants whom you would like to see a winner and then go out and work. Every time you spend a dollar put it some place where you ran get a, vote coupon and then turn it over to your chose* candidate. You won’t be the only one doing this, and how do you know but what roar little help will tu^n the trick and put the prise where .you want it? You peo ple who get out of yourselves once in n while and do somethiuic for somebody else, are beginning to learn the true secret of a happy life, and once you get in the way you will keep it up 'forever—you will speed ily see that the millenium is no fickle dream but a blessed reality, to be brought about by jus: simple means. If when you do a kind act you should fatally wait for the gratitude you m!gt|t therefore miss the opportu ■tity of doing another, and failinr to get what you have foolishly desired, lose all the joy of life, or having got it, lose the other chame of be ing satisfied. Best keep ou trying then; what is done for o»h«rs you ^ \ have done twice foi you »el.. for what is your euj and ob;**'•< rliau happiness, jAh:ch never follow* greed? A piano is never a foolish posses sion. Whes one can piny it all within reach of jt’a sweet sound are beoefitted thereby.

To the Editor of The Press and Standard: We have once more reached tie annual period of unrest In the teach ing profession of South Carolina. The rural schools are beginning to clete. and even the town and city schools are looking forward to commence ment exercises. With the closing of the year’s work comes usually the feeling of uncertainty on the part of the teacher aa to the position for next year. This is often accompanied by the anxious search for furious appli cation for positions. If the past years are any indication as to the fu ture, from 50 to 75 per cent, of onr teachers will change places at the beginning of the new school session. This instability in the profession, fronts w hatever causes it result*. 1* the greatest curse under which the chools of the State are now suffering. It is absolutely impossible for a com munity to build up a school or for a teacher to develop ability or acquire a reputation as long as three-tourths of our teachers teach one year In a place.

The worst recommendation which a teacher can present to a board la ^ batch of letters showing that he has taught at five or six .place* in aa many years. The teacher should at least/wish to remain long enough iu one community to become thorough identified Vitli the interests of the people. It is ithposorble for liini to adept his teaching to .the needfc of a community when he does not remain long enough to become acquainted with these needs.
