VOL XXIV. jsif li fim A Valuable Shingle Planl in Ruins. THE ICE PLANT SAVED Heroic Efforts Put Forth by Mer Saved Considerable Property WhicI Would Ilave Otherwise Been I>i?troyed. The Origin of Fire is Un ^ v. known. The entire plant of Waocamaw Shingle Co., was destroyed by fin last Sunday rn >rnin^, the firo started some time between \2 aa*l 1 o'clock. It would be hard to esti ' - ' 1- - 'J > no if id nz-iDQi l,ln in il/C l/U'J t* tUJU^oo, az) i u to /j i^gi uii. th at some of the machinery can d?! worked over and used, at least the boilers are not considered as being very badly hurt Sjcnoof the smaller machines are totally ruined while others may be worked over at some expense and used in re-building Tnere was no insurance what ever on the property. The Shing'e Company furnished the power for Conway Ice Company, the building of which was located at a short distance from the shingle mill. Horoic efforts put forth by a crowd of men who arrived early at the scone, saved the ice plant from burniug The end of the building however caught and was damaged to some extent, before the flames wore extinguish id. The ice plant is insured in a Mutual Company, and a claim will bo made for the damages to it. Tue fire must have been caused by a spark which had caught among the shavings and saw dust which had accumulated about the plice. A few woeks ag > the plant caught on fire from this cause but it was in the day time and no i ,1 gamugc whs uuiici v-/11 ljuiuuiuj afternoon work was stopped at the mill and the watchman went home Mr. W. H Howell, Manager of the Company, thought of the danger, and tried to find the man to send him back, but he had gone. Mr. Howell slated on Sunday that he did net know whether or not the Company would rebuild. Tne burned plant was situated on the river about a quarter of a mile from theTo-vn Hall. Large quantities of shingles stacked on the ground were not injured in the least. Explains Itself.

Loris, Nov. 24?Mr Editor, as it is Thanksgiving day and I hav no special engagement anywhere, I will write to your paper again. Tue first I will say is that you misquoted me in my last letter. Where I used too word Paradise you used the word Providence which Jistroyed the sense of the subject. Hope in printing my letters you will get it as I write it. Now, Mr Editor, there aro many imp>rtaub matters I could write on today to benefit our people if considered, but of all these I think the >ystem of school teaching one of the ' ' A . ? /1 .1 j I liw hud (IlOSt lllipurumiVi nnu ?*.-j L UU>\. huu a long experience in the business and it was said by our superintendents of tbat day that I had much success in teaching and advancing my pupils, I will write on schoo! system. One of the first things to do is to build up confidence in the children that you as teacher has taken charge of the school to rule it, and if you can, to do it altogether with love and kindness. In the second place, to do this, you must find out the disposition of cyery child in school uid also the capacity for learning, and then you may b3 able to adminisUr to all of their needs, otherwise you may make a mistake in correcting them. lb seems as if some teachers think that all children need the same pusn in school. This is to be governed by the disposition and capacity of the child, and in no case, if it can be avoided, use the whip. If the teachers will use kindness and gain love and respect from thoir pupils they will do or try to do all that is told them. If this rule is sufliciently carried out thore can but little trouble occur in the school. Now, I would ask the teacher to consider how sad it would be for them to wound or injure that affection of a child's tender love that is almost certain to go out after thoir teacher if treated right, I think that the relation of teacher and pupil at school should be the next thing to that of a rela ion between parent and child at home (if it is a loving and happy home ) With this ruling in school there is bound to grow up in the heart ol i * ' * i 1 I every child in scho u ties oi iovo uuu affection that never cm be severed, and such would be a gem in every teacher's life that we would be prou i of. Wuat we are todxy in our schojl room rueans the rise or fall of our Nation, hence how imp>rtant it is that every teacher should do all that lies in hi or her p *wcr to bring our boys -o . >ur gi'ds up from the sloughs of ignorance which stands today as oueof the great causes of so much crime and suffering Again may I say that a teacher should cuter his or her school room with a model life that wouldgcacs our highest places of honor. They should feel responsible and be able to bring before their pupils and show to them that before them lies a great future and that they must become men and women of a gre.it nation, I will say also that teachers must not try to over-do their work? they must! work with patience, knowing that the world was not made in oue day. Tney must remember that to push too hard on some chddreu will scare them : id they fail to m<)ve oil' because ie push is above their capacity. 1 think it is better to git right down on a plain simple plan of teaching and explaining the books of school man to have so much formal work, and I also believe that a toachir should adopt regular inter' vals of rest and not con line any child over this time?have other plans of punishment for them. Now, Mr Editor, 1 think anothei g >od thing in our sohool system h : for the patrons of the school U show more interest in the school by visiting th .on and talking wit! .the teachers and pifpils so that al may be united in this great work, Yours, J. 11, Stanley ?p ^ ^ ' | l'ie bupper.
