That little injury to his leg hap 1
pened to put President Roosevelt
off bis feet, just at the right time ,
and it really turned out to be more
so rious t hon wo Fat first KU*peoted.

Tub crops of the year UKP2 will t
soot, all be harvested. Taking the 1
|
county as a whole, it has been a sea
son of plenty, and the farmers are
in good condition to begin their <.
plans for the crops of another year. I
Many people were interested in
the proceedings of the court the first
days of the week and the court house t
could not hold them. The new court
house was defeated in the last pri- .
inary. but it is a necessity which
will assert itself at every term of
our court.
The advocates of child laborL
laws are more and more disposed to
exaggerate the conditions which ex- 1
ist in the cotton factories. V'hat
they purpose belongs more to the
sentimental than to the practical
? i 1.1. i . i _ .,
i?uw rcasuuuuie, uuu ini\v are mere ?
fore easily led into drawing upon
the imagination and feelings for
their arguments. That they are |
wrong in many of the asset tions |
they make in regard to the condition
of factory children, is plain to (
any one of unprejudiced observation.

Horry County Teachers' Asso- t
ciation, i
The Horry County Teachers' Association
met in Burroughs school j
house on Oct. 1. The attendance t
was small but those present mani- |
fested a keen interest, which is very
commendable
Mrs. Bradt was to have given a
cJ
lesson in grammar but it was posponed
till next meeting. The time
was taken up in discussing methods
for helping the teachers of the
county, through the association. t
It wasuuanimouslvjagreed to have c
regular recitations at the monthly
meetings, and for the present to ,
study only two subjects,?English
Grammar and School Management.
Mrs. Bradi will teach grammar and (
B. J Wells, Superintendent of Bur- (
roughs School .will teach School :
Management. :
The teachers of the county should r
not fail to avail themselves of the t
opportunity offered by the Associa- ;
tion of improving themselves. If ^
thoy will come and work together ,
they may reap untold benefit.
In looking over the school reports (
of the different counties, we are ,
struck by the fact that the counties (
which have the best schools have s
live teachers' associations. Shall
Horry lag behind? Or shall she .
forge to the front? The teachers of '
the county must answer.
Teaching is now regarded as ;
profession, and the teachers shouh
strive to exalt their profession. B\
showing a professional spirit they
will command a respect and conli
dence that will never In- secured oth^
erwise. ,
Then let every teacher in the j
coun?y he present 14 the meeting ,
of the association on the first Saturday
in November, and thus show .
that the teachers of Horry are de- \
termined to keep abreast of the j
times.

3f tKe Ministers who Preached
in Morry County Many
Years ago.
[Continued.]
I must not interrupt tlie train of
toy recollections of our olden time
ministers without mentioning the
mime of John A. Miniek, one of the
best men 1 think I ever knew Ho
was Ioveil by nil. In 183G he was
assigned to the Waccaraaw Mission
to preach to the negroes and served
on this Mission for some yeafs. I
can remember hearing one of the
old negroes say; 4 We lub Mr. Miniek.
we luo to heali 'iin preach fo*
he don preach dis high influence.
We etui all onderstan' him." He
was changed from this Mission to
tIn? Con vav Circuit and it was then
that tho whites came to know him
bettor When you heard him, you
seemed to feel satisfied with jourself
He always elevated, never depressed.
How many times have 1
listened to him and wished 1 could
he as good a matt as 1 thought ho
was. I have long ago given UP this.
You know the talents were distribu
led 5. d and 1.1 ought *o be satislied
Uncle Mi nick seemed to think
there was more good than bad among
u^, aud was one who preached
about the Ninety aud Nine being
saved and only one tut ray. Diligently
lie was looking after thot
one and ho would do it in the gentlest
and kindest way.
We hud those little blue-backed
Catechisms in those days and where
was the boy who could not answer
all the questions in them? I think
1 could "Who made you? What
did lie make you for? Who made
the world and everything in it in
six days?" IIow many knew more
then than now! Hoys had to walk
pretty straight when tho ministers
were around. I had to bo led
around tho kitchen to the little
switch tree more than once for some
of my missdecds when Brother "So
andSo" would bo at our home. Uncle
Minio was always holding up the
golden sceptre and with much unc
tiou, he would sing some of the old
song's that we all liked to hear:
God our help in ages past,
Our hope tor years to come;
Our shelter from the stormy blast
And our perpetual home.
Down on Murrells Inlet was the
lirst parsonage ever built in all that
section of country. I thiuk it was
built principally through the liberality
and generosity of James Bel in
another one of our old ministers. As
1 remember him he did not belong to
the Conference, but was a kind of
Local itinerant or "preach whorel-please-man,"
a thoroughly good
man but very tedious and always
holding up before us; "the pesli
lence that walketh by day and the
arrow that flyetli by night." He
was all for the church and gave everything
he had to it. He was well
to do for those times, 1 think a de
scondant from the old Indigo planters.
The Uelin fund must have been
well invested for the benefit of the
church, as it has stood the ravages
of war, earthquake and tidal waves
and as I think is still paying a good
dividend, not that 1 know so much
about it. How modorate he was in
everything, and how careful in answering
Questions! When Dr. McGill
met him one day and asked him
what his besotting sir was, he had
a meek face when he said lie thought
it was pride.
1 like yot to go down on Cowford
and hear them sing some of those
old songs we used to sing. It carries
me back to my boy hood's innocence.
None of your Moody and
Sankey about them.
Will we still continue to advance
in religion, culturo and refinement
as we have for the hist century, or
will we. as some think, go back to
that state above which it has taken
man so long to arise? While life
lasts let our prajor be: ' 'Lord teach
us the way in which we should walk
and the things that we should do
that we may inherit eternal life.
