University of South Carolina Libraries
"SCHOOL LIBAWNS& A few years ago the conditi of the schoofiOuses in this cou ha it would hiav .ty Was msua been foolishneuss for tiny one t have advocated a school library It is not so now. There are groat many goo(, safo, and co1 fortable houses in this county more perhaps than in ily countt of the State, the populationi al( .irea taken into conlideration. -lave the pupils of the commol e schools goo(l libraries at hoic as to continue roading and .tying while out' of schlool? ad reader look around when )mt visit, and see tle scanty slp. Lgly of goo(d books that are expec ted to onlighten and furnish food for thought of the school children. Inquiro of the young men aid women now coming to maturity, what books they have read and see if you do not, think a good li brary at each school house would h, worth more to the pupils than many times the cost to us to put it there. If you will make inquiry, you will fin( imany pupils w%hoso par. ents are niot able to supply theimi with books to read at home and there are no reference books at our school houses to assist any pupil-frequently not even Wob ater's Primary Dictionary to give the meaning of a ward or its pro iuuciat ion. The first school library started in this county was at Contral a motith or too ago. Brother Dan iel was asked to give soiething on the subject for publication. He has dono so and it is well worthy of a careful perusal. Now you have a plan to got. up a library, well send it along that is what we are after, tlie pltia first, and then the library. WHAT PRoF. D. W. DANIEL HAS TO SAY ON T1us. SUnl.1eCT OF "'LunaRItEs.' Having been requested to write on founding "School Libraries." I submit the following brief com nmunicat ion: I need niot discuss the groat need of these libraries. No schll is COmiple'te without one. The quest ion is how shall I get it? The first thing to do is to betgin . Let the t eacher lirst de term inf( to have a library if it con sists of a collection of only on, boo0k. Somew une has said, "Rle ware of the man of one1 boo0k."' 'lle generally knows what he is talking about. Next mnak' a talk to the pupils showing the benefilt and pleasure to be derived from a library. Re.. fer' to it as ''Our Lib~rary."' Then callI for books to be dlonated by the pupils, each one writing his name in the book donated. Any live teacher cani get p)upils aroused oni this subject. I have known them to give books that they had received as birth dayu~ presents (or as ptrizes. I need niot say more on this line. Thero are huindred1s of books in every comm Iunity that have teeni read by one family only. Tha~o canf be thus collected and1( made to do much good. Next let there be a Library As sociation organized-the teacher being Librarian with one or more assistants elected by the pupils. A yearly foe of fino'or ton cents can then be charged each new member. Lot only these pupils get books who either donate a boo0k or pay a fee. I have had some experience in ,this work and found this plain huccessful--having secured a ii irary of over one hundred volumes '1 a country school in a very short i me. If aniy should wish further ini formnation on this question, I will -be glad, to give all I can either through the "Teachers Column' or otherwviso. Respect fully, D. W. DANIEL. R~aIIed by a BicyNe Rgde. Birmingham, Ala., Nov. 14.--F. K. Swank, aged 60, an employe in the shops of the Southern Rail way in this city, was run over by a bicycle about 6 o'clock this af.1 ----.rroon and killed.

To the Thinking Farmers of the e South: 0 For the past two years I have mado "cotton 3comnissions" my businoss and daily have I witiss ed the downward tendoncy of your product. . If you will realize the fact, that though you are the pro. dulcers of this country and should I be the most independent, yet you are the most dependent people of America. Why? Because there lire combinations oi nearly every ( article you use. The iianufactur 'rs of the North combino oin ev erything and say what it shall bring, n hile you sell your products for whatever thoy are willing to pay you. Why ctinnot you 'pro teet your cotton in the same wny? e I should like, if it meets your approval, to organize a trust com- Y pany called the Southern Far mers' Trust Company, for the purpose of protecting your prod ucts from the depressing influei ces of spiculators, spinle(rs 111( Capitaliste, and provide i means by which you can namne the price for y'our products, instea(l of ha1tv ing the price dictated Io yoi, as is now the cas'e. I feel satisfied tins can11 1-1 done b1Iy forminug a trust which would be able to handle mlost. of the cotton you grow. Let the capital stock be $50,000,. 800 to $100,000,000, subscribed entirely by the farmers of the South and divided into as many shares as may be necossary an( small enough for overy cotton planter .,to subscribe. Let eneh farmer take stock to his iitmost capacity and sipport the t rust in every possible way. In casO you receive 10 cents fer yoour cotton instead of- 5 cents which you are now receiving, you mav on a crop of 8,000,000 .balos thout $200,0(K),000, at least twice is much as the capital stock of Fl he trust company. In case spec .lators should become frightened be .V.n at the menItion of the trust hi m'd advance the price of cotton, 1o much the better for you, but ery likely they would attemipt at irst to bluff you. I think it is now time to act. What benefits the farmer or labor r unq(uestioniably benefits all elasses. If such a plan should mleet your ap l~provail, I would be mIore thani glad to meet a repro eniitative cot ton grower from each state or Allianco, either in New okor in some Southern city, t ae if somiethinhg cannq'. ,, done to) b.ring abouit some benefit to the south. Somiething must be donej .)r your lands will not be worth se: 'lult ivat ing. p Very respe4.ctfully, Jouns TI. RounEy, W 80 lBroadway, New York. B A Tenlnenee Judg~e KImed. MunEEnI nlY A m)sAr'1oIwrED OV VCE HLoLI)ER oF TnE COURT. Nashvillo, Tenn., Nov. 14. Chancolor Andrew Allison of this city was shot and killed in the corridors of the county court house here at 1 o'clocki this after noon1 by George Whitwor'th, ex clerk and master of the D~avidson County Chancery Court. Whit worth then attonmpted to conunit suicide and infhicted what will probably prove a fatal wound( on1 himself. Whlitworth was ap~point (3d to his oflice by Judge' AlIIbson and served one term. At the ex piration of that term a few datys. sinco Judge Allison appoin ted hii. son, Granvillo Allison, to succeed Whitworth. It was that f:et that instigated the miurdlor. Judge Al lison was re-alected to his o011100 of Chanceller in Augusta last. lHe was a man of about fifty years of age and a member of and old and promuinent family.-L.olumbia Registor. The public dlebt is to be increas edl by the issue of *50,000,000 of bonds. The ostonsible reason is an alleged nteed forihecrease of the Treasury gold resoev. -Yet the not increase'of. the gojh.etierve as the result of the sale.oetthbnds, premium and all, will notr.-be425, )00,000.
