DENMARK BUICK CO
DENMARK, S. C
Surely their dream has
on the
above date the seeming impossibility
was made a reality.
The officers elected are as follows:
Nellie E. Roland, of Elko, president;
G. G. Butler, of Barnwell, 1st vice-
president; S. J. Rice, of Rlackvipe :
2nd vicb-president; Rosa
Cutchen, of Dunbarton, 3ni
dent; B. J. Reddish, of Blackville,
secretary; Lucy Hughes, of Black
ville, asst, secretary; Flora E. Clark,
of Barnwell, treasurer. A program
Committee was appointed, also a
committee on constitution and By
laws. The latter reported at the
succeeding session and was dismissed
after the approval of its report by
the body. Only persons who are ac
tually engaged in teaching are
eligible to become members.
Well may “ad astra” be the motto
of this body because of the compre
hensiveness of its purpose. While it
is ar> open secret “that we are poorly
paid—exceptionally so, we are. cogni
zant of the evils that result from ig
norance of certain fundamentals of
education and modem meCheds, and
we are determined to play our part
in the obliteration of said ignorance.
Hence, one of our primary objects is
to promote better work among the
“craft.” Others are: To fostef* a
better understanding and relationship
among the teachers of the county and
to create greater interest tn local,
State and national educational affai’.s
—of course interest in universal ed
ucational affairs is understood.
The time of meeting will be 11 a. m.
on Saturday before the- 4th Lord's
Day -in the month of November
through April.
Anqong the topics disefissed Sn
some of'tW sessions were: “How
may we get our boys and girls to
become more interested in school,”
and ‘Safeguarding the Students’
health.” The. Honorable H: l.
Crouch was to have addressed us in
our closing meeting but because of
the press of other business he found
it impossible, to do so. We have had
several visitors, including Mrs.
Jones, of Aiken and Prof. J. W. Par
kinson, of Allendale, to whom we are
debtors for their invaluable addresses.
Too much praise cannot be given
Nellie E. Roland, who was the “vis
a tergo.” We hope through this
organization and valuable help of our
incomparable County Superintend
ent to do more for our State’s pro
gramme against illiteracy than we
have done in the past, for after all,
“The welfare of the people is the
Supreme Law,” and as Carl Schurz
says, “Ideals are like stars: we shall
entrance.
And then the wife’s emotions got the
better of her.
“I’ll Just leave It to these people
here,” she told her husband, flourish
ing an arm in our direction. “We’ve
been married seven years and in all
that time he's never said a kind word
to me until tonight And now—yes,
this Is his Idea of kind words; listen—
he comes in and fells me I done well
in ordering his shipment of clean po
tatoes.”
“Well.” the husband asserted, sul
lenly, “you did.”
“Sure I did!” his wife returned.
And for seven years I been dressing
’ I the way yon liked and doing every-
hlng you-wanted- me to do, huTT-keep
ing house the way you wanted It kept,
and now the first time you show any
appreciation yon thank me for order
ing clean potatoes—!"
But. my goodness, we thought, ns
we got ontslde the store and the hys
terical voice of the Ill-treated wife was
left far bfhlnd, how like life that Is!
And how many times we get thanked
for Just such dumb things as “order
ing clean potatoes,” when our really
worthy achievements are overlooked.
I dim't doubt that seven years of
marital strife do a lot toward stifling
the desire to bestow mutual compli
ments. hut It seems a pity that such a
state of affairs has to exist. I sup
pose. for instance, that this store-
kee|»er's wife would have swooned
with Joy had her ateru-vlaaged hus
band remarked In an offhand manner.
“Seems tn me you look awfully pretty
Jonlght In that dress." Bat no—he
would pick «o the potatoes.—Cleve
land Plain Dealer.

They move* about on‘foot when they
find it impossible to ride—on ru‘-h-

neglected sewer they carry around
with them. No, Madame, I’m not

to tell a womait she’s tubby.
1 have been a sufferer from this
acquired deformity, and, know
whereof I speak. It came upon me
by stealth; people said to me. “How
wonderfully healthy you look; you'
a^re getting fatter every day.” People'
love fat things.
* Suddenly I was attacked one*day
on the street—I felt that 1 was dying!
My pulse registered 145, weak anti
irregular. I “sat up and took notice”
from that hour. Careful inve+tiga-
tioq revealed that I was suffering-
from a stealthy, slow-acting poison

no patience with laying the blame
the heart, when it is simply poisoned
to death from the sewer!
It took me over two years to re

certainly have killed me. I used a
