The address of the occasion will be made by Prof. E. L. Hughes, superin tendent of the city schools of Green ville, and his subject will be "The Geography o ftbe European War." The subject is particularly timely, and ow ing to this fact it is probable that oth ers besides members of tbe associa tion will drop in to hear the address. Prof. Hughes needs no introduction to the school teachers of Anderson county, cr rather to those who bav?3 attended the summer schools at Win throp College and other points in the State. At these summer scnools for teachers Prof. Hughes stands at the top of the Hst of .those brilliant teach ers who are gathered- from the four corners of the earth to give instruc tion to those attending the summer training schools, t, .His talk on the geography of Europe is bound to be an interesting dis course. He has a way of illu3trat ing his lectures that serves to im press upon the minds of his audience lessons which are never forgotten. Thc monthly meetings of the teach ers' associations are always largely at tended, and particularly has this been I the case with the last two or three I meetings. Those attending the ses sions bring their lunches with them I and at the proper hour the exercises ? are brought to a recess while those attending the meeting partake of a snack. Members of the domestic science class ot the high school serve hot coffee and other delicacies on these occasions, ~h!ch while not I much add materially to tho enjoyment of thc occasion. c ?SStkd 'to Tbe anata COLUMBIA, J aa* .J.-Oho ot the con ! vieta to receive clemency from' Gov ernor Blease ia a recent batch was Thoa.
