The Intelligencer hates to have our hopes raised by rumors of peace and then have them smashed again. Wo j wish the rumors if they are not to mean anything |would cease to arrive,; ! with . <mch) regularity. To say the ?least it is most unkind to raise hopes for naught, hut maybe they will sa permeate the world after a while that' ?even the warlike nations at war will ' recognize in them the desire of tho world.for peace and-.it will come. "So mote it be, Amen." OATH TAKEN' BY ATHENIANS. ' The Intelligencer would commend to the citizens of Anderson thc ancient oath, ' as a guide for p'roper civic, pride and as a memory gem for young and old this blt of thought cannot bc excelled.. Tills oath was taken by the young Athenians when ihey assumed the responsibilities of citizenship, and if followed in this modern time would; mean an enlightened and live civic pjrlde and a growth in virtue and manhood. Tho oath runs: . We will never bring disgrace to this, our city, by any act of dishonesty orjcowardlce, nor sever desert our suffering comrades lu . the. ranks. Wo will fight for the ideal and for [the sacred .things, of the city. . J"We"will revere mid obey the city's law? sud do our beat to excite a like respect and reverence in those above us who are prone to annul and aet them at naught.

Now, we may leave the subject somewhat, but lt ls very important that wo lay stress on the rights and duties of a child to a parent. The children within the school.age are thc niemberh of the school, and aro the most important members of the district.- It is for their good that the school exists. The State has pro vided schools in order that Its chil dren may be educated, nd thus be come useful men and women and good citizens. \ have Important rights and duties. It Ia one of the highest rights, of every child to attend the full session of thc pjnblic school. Whoever prevents him from exercising this right commits an offense against the child and against' the State. The people are taxed to maintain a system of public schools for the benefit of every child, and so every child has a right to nil that hus been prepared for him. As it is a right it ls also a duty of all children to attend the full ses sion. They should be urged- and prompt in attendance, aud should field prompt and cheerful obedience! to .tho school government. Since the parent and State haye provided .uch a system for tho bene-' Ht of their children, then each "child mould think of the sacrifice rudd their parents for them and should sypr strive'to build worthy" of their ?>ar?nts hopes.
