The next : session- o.- We0 bouth
Carolina legislature is rapidly ap
proaching and tho members 'her'of
are gotting their bils in shape for
consideration. A great many of
these bills will dio in the commit
too rouny, seio will cease to exist
before the General Assembly ad
journs aid a few will become law.
Each meimber feels th at he in ust do
siomething for his constit3ecy, and
hence the multitude of bills that
go Upon tho calendar. Too much
is expected of tho members by the
the )'opl. and in tho effort to
moQeL ta.at. )xpectation, much val
uable timo is squandered in the
introductionl and Conisideration of
unimportant bills. Yet the mom
bor1s have gwat responsibility upon
them which0 ima)y peoplo) never
seem to appreciate. Often the
voters appe-ar to concern themsel

Why do parents send their chil
dren to school? Is it not for ad
vancelment? If so, and they do
not advance is not the paront dis
appointed and the child discour
aged? You w ill be blamed brother
tenehor-aro you guilty? You
hold a cortificate that certifies that
you answered so many pr cents. on
certain branchos required to bo
taught in school. Would you em
ploy a lawyer or a physician who
had no books relatmng to his busi
iess? How many books do you
own, road and study relating to the
seience and art of school manage
ment? How many educational
journals do you take? How many
want fifty dollars per month who
are only getting twenty-five? There
has been, and thero will bo, plenty
of places for bottor teachors in this
county. If you expect those places
you must proparo yourself tor
them.
Let us suggest that you become
a good teacher by reading and
studying your own calling. GOt
all the books your spare change
will allow, relating to the scionce
and art of teaching. Road them
study themn, and talk with your 101.
low teacher, and get his ideas er
the subjects you doubt. Subscribi
for and road seome good educationa
journal. Attend your county as
sociations untd if you don't agre<
with all that is said-get up an<
ask questions-ox press your doubt,
Be a teacher, a good one. Learn
howv to un fold the moral and ini
tePllectual minds of children. Skil
observation and thought aro re
-quirod *to do this work. It is no
hearing lessonsB, nor keoping schoc
either. It is higher. It is th
causing~ of the pupils minid to grow
expand, to think, to see, to know
to doC.
