S t* D. OUphant Author of The following new* item from The Bamberg Herald will be read with in* target by the friends, of Mr*. A. D. Oliphant, who is pleasantly remem bered in Barnwell as Miss May Simms, 4i daughter of (the late Mr. W. Gilmore Biawns, fer many year* Cleric of Court for Barnwell County: Designed for use in the grammar school grades to give the children of South Carolina ajfepoader and deeper knowledge of their State, Mrs. Mary C. Simms Oliphant, of Greenville, has written the South Carolina Reader, which, profusely illustrated, is just from the press. •* Mrs. Oliphant, who is editor of Simms’ history of South Carolina, aays in the preface to her new work: M One big object of education is to prepare students for intelligent and useful citizenship. Every young man and young woman have two hard problems that they must face early irt life: the first is the selection of their vocation, and the other i* the choice of the locality in which they will live . .... It is wise to teach pupils, who are changing from child hood to manhood and womanhood, abut basal economical and industrial conditions of their own communities. They should learn of the State’s resources and how to . conserve Staite’s resources a nd how to conserve them; of Its opportunitiae and how to g*Mp thorn; and of its industriin and how thoy operaU.” In compiling The SoutlT Carolina Reader, Mrs. Oliphant has* had this thought in mind, as is apparent fr>m even a superficial examination of her work. The author may haye been de pended upon to give the historic toufch “T - * * to her reader, which she has done in a most pleasing and effective manner. The first chapter deals with South Carolina os, the first visitors saw it, and there Tffe chapters dealing with the South Carolina Indians and with South Carolina’s glorious past. But not too much stress has been laid upon historial values. The State’s mineral resources, trade conditions of the past, present and future, field 'crops, diver- sifiea farming, old and new ways of travel, the State’s rivers, the story of cotton manufacturing in the State, manufacturing industries, the birds and the trees and the literature of the State all form intensely interesting chapters.’ The author gives evidence of having realized that history does not teach all that the children of South Carolinians should know about ttidir State, of its great opportunities for development and of their individual opportunities as workers and as citi zens. No one, young or old, can peruse the pages of the South Carolina Reader and not learn a great dael of value about the State—without, in fact, knowing his or her State, better and A» t soplimentary text book. The South Carolina Reader will prove ita own recommendation and its use in the school room as such will undubted- Jy prove helpful and beneficial in the proper training of South Carolina youth. . • • -J ■ ♦ wi. ■e*-; — f \ 'n rv \ FIX BAY9NETS! homasan, Jr. Syndhefe Aro. \ ■ Mi t • W - V jWFAYBE you saw “What Price Glory” or “The Big Parade,” the most talked about stage play and movie of the war.
