A Valuable Shingle Planl
in Ruins.
THE ICE PLANT SAVED
Heroic Efforts Put Forth by Mer

The Origin of Fire is Un

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

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

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.

in reference to a certain law

'speaks from experience

Kir.'! less and the Seeds of Futuro

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,
