? A*! ^ ???* ; * . _ BOHOB. Honor ahoyld be taM ?? In M^pnbli fM truthful way; testate, ttjou give a person I^ vordot WttWj T<m ought to * tan your Word of honor; bal many parsons give their honor for th^ time being only, and - often never think of what they are saying. ' Therefore they do not think of honor in the right If yon are , living in a house with a great many younger sis-' ters and brothers, you ought al way a good example to them and be honorable, because, being younger, they generally pattern ^fter yon. George Washington was a very honorable man, to his country and to everything in everv way Lee also was a very honorable jnan; he teok the Confederate ? /?i0e of the civil war, because he thought he was right. Napoleon Ponaparte was a dishonorable .man; so was Benedict Arnold; ho was a traitor to his country; he thought there was not enough credit paid to him, therefore he was dishonorable to his country and to himself. Bertie Lenoir. Age 13, grade 7. THE HORSE. Of all the animals in the world the horse is considered the most intelligent and most useful. The family consists of mules, don keys, zebras and the highest of all, the horse. I will give an il lustration of their intelligence in the following story: Every night as two horses came home for the night, the groom would water them. One day the groom forgot to ' leave water in the trough for them. They had watched him attentively every evening as he pumped the trough full, so they went to the pump and carefully raised it up and down until it was full. Another incident 1 am going .to tell is that of a cruel driver and a gentle horse. The ili-jver had stopped for a few minutos* and, on getting in his cart, gave the horse a cut and a harsh word, but the horse stood still. Just then a kind man* came up to the horse and, with a kind word the horse trotted off as if his load was nothing. A kind word is ,jmore than any whip. James Blakeney, Age 18, grade 7. HONOR. Te be honorable is to bo true <ind trustworthy. Tho word hon orable means integrity. Every one should teach little ..children honor by sotting a good example. I have heard little children assert in school to their teacher, "well, mama does it," if it is said to bo dishonest. That should teach mothers, if they hava any pride, to set their children good examples, because they are often exposed to 11m people . It ia dishonorable to say, "I will stand by my country whether it ib right or wrong." A man should stand up for what he be lieves to bo true ancl honorable. For instance, Arnold was very dishonest, and I am glad to say that ho is the only noted dishon est man that our country ever produced, while our list, of noted honest men is much larger. Washington, Leo and matiy others aro noted in history for their honesty. Hallio Caarison. Age, 13; grade. 7. ICR. Ice is water frozen into crys tals. It is formed by water freez ing in winter, but in summer it has to go through a process of being heated to so great, an es tent that it freezes. Ice Is very nsetful in sickness, especially fever; it is also used for cooling water in summer. In the polar regions the suf j /eritig from ice is very intense, IW^MB -?t ? ? ? im n"fc^ JT ijali 1 .f,M n*t BMf Siliy PMIM HgM IIBWll ctlvolgilosttofetM. - Ice is very pretty sometimes, for instance take whaa ittreeaoa on tree* (as we tavt U'oow); icicles hang from bo?n and al together it gives a crystal effect to all the surrounding' scenery. Ice als^ comes down in the form of sleet in winter and tfail in summer. At one period of the earth, . a glacier came down fromthe north pole, to the Ohio river in America and as far as the Scandinavian peninsular in Europe. It made the great lakes, left bolder drum* lins and terminal - moraines, borne glaciers are found in the Alps, which people are very of ten lost in them and big St. Ber nard dogs have to find them. Paul U Schenk. Age 11, grade 6. Suing A. C. L. Line for $5,000. Mr. E. L. Richardson, formerly of Oolumbia, but now ft member of the Greenwood 'bar, has brought suit against tbo Atlantic Coast Line for $5,000 actual and puni tire damages be cause he was ajected from one of the company's trains last fall about three Allies from Latta, m Manqn county. ? The oase involves a new and untested point, which is of some general inter est, not only throughout this State but in other States. Mr. Richardson held a ticket to Latta, but the train which he boarded for that point was limited so far as that station was ooncerned, and the conductor, according to the complaint, refused to stop the train to let him off. Instead the train was stopped three miles out of Latta, where he was ejected, Mr. Richardson claims that the road's agent, of whom he bought the tickct, was required by law to notify him as to what train he should take, and that this was not done, lie claims that even if notifica tion were not required, it was the right, natural and proper thing lor the conductor to let liiui oil' at his station ; that it was as easy to stop the train at the station as three miles beyoud it and that failure tf do so was vindictive aud malicious.
