Well-MIerited Promotion.
The Atlanta Constitution has the
following, which will interest the
friends of Capt. W. H. Green, who has
been promoted to the position of gene
ral manager of the Richmond and
Danville system:
"The new general manager is one of
the most thoroughly equipped railroad
men in the country, and is regarded by
the officials of the road and every body
else conversant with the facts as with
out a superior in ability. He began his
railroad career as a machinist in the
ehops of the Columbia and Greenville
Road. After learning all that was to
be learned there he was made passenger
conductor on that road. From that
position he was made master of trains
of the North Carolina Railroad--from
Goldsboro to Charlotte-and later was
promoted to the position of superin
rtendent of the Richmond and Danville
division of the Richmond and Danville
system. That is the division from
Richmond to Charlotte. His next step
was to the general superintendency of
the Richmond and Danville system, a
position he held until his appointment
as assistant general manager of the
system. His elevation to the general
managership was considered a question
of only a short time, as it wes under
stood Major Randolph had expressed a
desire to be relieved of tbe active work
of the position."

THE ELECTRI LIGHT MEETING.
& Small Attendance-Very Little Enthusi
asm-Another Meeting to be Held.
On last Thursday afternoon, in ac
cordance with the notice of Mayor
nGoggans, fifty-four men and boys, resi
dents and non-residents, assembled
themselves together in the Opera House
to discuss the question of lighting the
town of Newberry by electricity. Mayor
Goggans called the meeting to order
and nominated Capt. J. C. Wilson for
chairman, but he declined. Then Capt.
B.. H. Wright and Mr. S. P. Boozer
were both in turn nominated for the
same position and both declined.
Mayor Goggans then was elected and
took the position. E. H. Aull was
elected secretary.
The chairman stated the object of
the meeting, and the secretary read
several letters on the subject of elec
tricity and one proposition from a conm
pany offering to put in an electric
plant and furnish 32 candle power in
eaudescent lamps for $:.5 per annum
LLaeh, or the are light for $100 per an
num per light. The Mayors of Ander
son and Sumter both wrote letters say
ing their towns were well pleased with
electric lights. Mayor Goggans also
stated that the town now had about 80
street lamps which cost about $900 per
annum. The meeting was then in
possession of all the facts and the ques
tion was ready for discussion.
Dr. Pelham raid our lights now cost
us about $900. Electric lights would
ost us about $1,000 or $1,500 more,
which he considered a very small mat
ter in comparison with the diflerence
in the lights, and he moved that the
Town Council be empowered to con
tract for electric lights. This motion
was seconded by C. C. McWhirter.
Capt. B. H. Wright said he was not
)pposed to electric lights, but he
thought there were other things more
important and that were needed a great
deal more. He thought a system of
water works more important. If we
3ould afford both it would be well,
Dut water works would be worth a
reat deal more. Electric lights were
something of a luxury, while a good
mystem of water works was a necessity.
Mayor Goggans explained that for
>ne year at least there would be no
2ecessity for an extra tax for electric
ights. Beyond that he could not
;peak.
Dr. McIntosh said that incandescent
ights would not do for our streets. If
you go to Columbia you will find that
ncandescent lights are unsatisfactory.
[t is time for us to consider expenses
te thought. We are now in a house
'or which we owe every dollar. We
ow have a graded school tax and a
ailroad tax and with the other tax on
he town, he thought we had about as
iuch tax as we needed. He said he
vent out at night about as much as
my one, and be could get along very
vell with the lights we had. He was
n favor of a system of water works. It
?as a pet scheme of his.
Dr. Pelham said he would accept an
mniendment to his motion to include
rater works. The little town of An
l rson has water works and electric 1
ights. He was not wedded to the in
andescent light, but he thought the
own should be better lighted. He had
io money to throw away, but he
vanted to see his town move forward.
We need many things. We needed
)etter streets and other things that he
!ould mention, but we must wake up
omewhere if we would keep pace
with other towns.
M. A. Carlisle rose to second the re
nar is of Dr. McIntosh. He thought
*f thbe town had any surplus funds on
iand that it had better be applied to
-etiring some of the Opera Nouse
>onds.
Geo. B. Cromer moved, as a substi
:ute for Dr. Pelham's motion, that the
['own Council be requested to report to
in adjourned meeting the feasibility of
~stablishing a system of water works
md electric lights. And also that
vbhen we adjourn, we adjourn subject
:o tbe call of the president. Adopted,
mnd the meeting adjourned.

TEACHERS' CAL7'MN.
Order in the School.
Any school that does not teach the pu
pils what obedience and order are is a
f ailure.
How many realize this truth. I once
heard one who had taught say that he
did not care how disorderly the pupils
were if they only knew their lessons.
This might be satisfactory to some teach
ers, but it certainly cannot be to those
who know the meaning of the word edu
cation. To educate in our common
schools certainly does not mean simply to
train pupils in the branches named by the
Board of Examiners.
If that is all, then the mission of the
teacher is not so grand, elevating. and
ennobling as we have been led to believe
But to return to our subject. The
teacher will say, "I know my school if
not so orderly as it should be, but I can't
help it." To such a teacher we would
say:
1st. Do what you say you will do.
Don't make threats and fail to carry them
out. The better way would be not to make
any threats at all. We often hear teache:s
tell pupils that if certain things are done
or not done, certain punishment will
follow. There is no use for making any
such promise because something may
arise to prevent its being fulfilled. A
teacher once told a child that he would
punish him if he did not know a certain
lesson. The child could not learn it.
What was to be done? Punish the child?
Certainly not. It could not accomplish
the impossible to him.
2nd. Don't use the switch too often or
too hastily. The switch is a very good
thing in its place, but its place is gene
rally in the woods where nature has put
it that it might grow up to be a tree, when
it becomes useful. The switch. it is true,
may sometimes do good in the school
room, but it often does harm. The
teacher who would use it when angry
had better not use it at all. It is a mis
take, then. to suppose that corporal pun
ishment is the way and only way to en
force order. If this kind of punishment
is often to be resorted to with a child we
had better stay at home.
3d. Have few rules for the school, but
enforce them. A rule should not be laid
down for the government of a school
when the teacher is in doubt as to its pro
priety. If a rule cannot be carried out to
the letter, abolish it.
4th. A teacher should not himself laugh
at a child that makes a mistake, nor
should he permit the other children to
laugh at him. If there is anything that
takes the manhood out of a child, or stirs
up all the hatred within him, it is to be
laughed at. His nature cannot endure
it. He becomes an open rebel, and will
give his teacher trouble. The above mis
take is too often made by teachers who
complain that they cannot keep order.
Whose fault is it? Let the teacher an
swer.
5th. Don't inflict such punishment on
a child as will make him an object of
ridicule. We once read of a hapless boy
who was ordered to stand in the grate
with his head up the chimney, while his
companions in crime were invited to laugh
at him. Could such treatment as this
make a pupil a lover of order and obedi
ence? Would it make him admire or re
spect his teacher? No. It would only
cause him to be disobedient and disor
derly.
If teachers could only be made to think,
to give the subject proper attention. they
would not have to complain of unruly
schools.
Teachers' Association.
The association met on last Saturday,
notwithstanding the unpleasant weather.
In the absence of both president and vice
presid~ent, Mr. M. W. Peurifoy was called
to the chair. Miss Fannie Baxter was
appointed secretary. After roll call and
the ieading of minutes, the published pro
gramme was taken up. Prof. Hunter, of
the Newbeiry Graded Schools, read an in
structive and carefully prepaaed paper on
the methods of leaching arithmetic- Al
though Mr. Hunter has not been in the
school work very long, yet he seems to
appreciate fully the difficulties in the way
of teaching arithmetic. He suggested
methods and plans which, if carrie out,
would aid materially in overcoming the
difficulties in the way. The subject was
discussed by several teachers present,
their remarks being priaicipally on pri
mary work.
The course of study prepared by the
committee appointed for that purpose was
not taken up, but was postponed ntil the
next meeting. The school district plan
was also to have been discussed, but was
carried over until the next meeting. It
wqs agreed to extend an invitation to
school trustees and others interested in
the work to attend the next meeting of
the association when the school district
will be fully discussed.
It is, therefore, earnestly requested that
all who advocate the common school sys
tem and who desire to make it more ef
fective will attend the next association.
The State Superintendent of Education
having called upon each association in
the State to commend two persons for
members of the County Board of Exam
iners, Prof. Brown moved that associa
tion recommend Messrs. Geo. B. Cromier
and G. G. Sale. Car ried unanimously.
Besides the work ment ioned above for
the ne:t meeting, Miss Mallie Wheeler,
of t'io graded schools, will have a class
from the 3d grade, aos will show how the
work in her department is carried on.
The schools in the lower part of the the
county have a large attendance. Some
of these schools have been forced to call
in assistants. This is gratifying indeed,
and shows that the people of our county
are not dead1 to education.
The State Superintendent of Education
has requested that the county make ar
rangements to hold an institute this sum
mer. The Newberry Board has not yet
taken action on the matter, but will'at
tend to it in time.
Mr. J. K. Hair, of Lexington, has
taken charge of the Flint Hill school in
No. 4, Township.
