MR. EDIToR:-At the regular mee

the following resolutions were pass<
Sunanimously, and by instruction I ser
them with request that you publis
the same in your esteemed paper.
Respectfully,
F. E. MAYBIN, Secretary.
1. That the alliance approves of tl
:uanly stand taken by our State Lect
rer Talbert in defense of our order; at
that we realize the fact that he b
been goaded into the use of the la
guage which those opposed to him tal
so much exception to.
2. Furthermore, That we have reas<
to believe that this attack upon. ol
worthy lecturer is nothing more or~ le
than covert stabs at our order throut
him.
We, the members of Cannon's Oret
Alliance, would be glad if we ha
many more Talberts in our order.

The County Teachers' Association
met at the Graded School building last
Saturday, and held quite an interest
ing meeting. Of the six appointed to
lead in discussions only two were
present, -Misses Cora D5ominick and
Mamie Crooks. These two young
:adies read instructive papers on order
in the school room. ezeveral teacher.,
took part iH the discussion, and it was
evident that the discipline of our
schools needs more careful attention.
The "Use and Abuse of Text books,"
and the "Best Methods for Teaching
Spelling" were also discussed. Messrs.
George B. Cromer and G. G. Sale be
ing present took part in the discus
sicus.
The association upon die invitation
of Mr. T. W. Keitt, decided to hold a
two( days' meeting at the Rutherford
school district building on the 3d and
4th of July.
The proposition to hold this nieetiig
met with the hearty approval of all
present. It i., a move in tbe right di
rection. The progranime ft-r this wneet
ing will be published in a few weks.
Four or five names were added to
the roll.
It was gratifying to see the interest
taken in last Saturday's meeting. The
attendance was perhaps larger than at
any other mneeting during the year.,_
The association will hold its next
meeting at Newberry on the 2nd Sat
urday in June. Programme will ap
pear in next week's papers.
Trustees' Meeting
The County Board of Examiners
have decided to call a meeting s-hool
trustees to be held at Newberry on the
6th of June.
Something must be done for our
country schools. They are not what
they ought to be. They are not going
backward, perhaps, but certainly are
not moving forward fast enough. We
can do something to build them up it
we will only go forward and do our
duty.
Among the questions to be discussed
are the following:
1. Should the county be divided up
into smaller school districts, and if so
what should be the size of these dis
tricts?
2. How much should 1st, 2nd and
3d grade teachers be paid per month ?
3. Should we use public funds for
the buildivg and repairing of school
houses?
4. How can we supply our school
rooms with better furniturc?
5. Is it wise to run the public schools
on a credit?
Other questions may come up for
discussion, but these will be the leading
ones. Not only are trustees expected
to attend, but every one else who feels
an interest in other public schools.
We want the meeting in June to be
the most interesting one of the kind
ever held in the county.
Nearly all the public schools of the
county are closed. Some of the schools
are being run by private subscription
and will continue in session until the
first of July. Many of the teachers in
the lower part of the county will teach
during July and August.
Outside of these special schpol districts
more than $8,000 is paid to teachers
from the public school fund. Of this
amount over $6,000 has been paid in
cash during the session, which means .
a saving to teachers of nearly $500 pro
vided they would have discounted
their claims. In addition to this the
rate of discount this year has been
lower than ever before.
We have not yet heard fronm Snper- t
intendent Mayfield in regard to the h
Institute th is summer. He is making
arrangements for Institute work allr
over the State, and will no doubt make tI
it more effective this vear than it has
been at any time during the past.
BRAIN TROUBLE.
Mr. P. N. Crouch Taken Dangerousl.v Ill
in Augusta.0
[Augusta Herald, 7th.)
Mr. Pope Crouch, of Colnmbia, S. C.,
was taken dangerously ill in the office s
of the Arlin'gton hotel late last night. v
He is a commercial traveler, and with~
his wife and daughter had been stop- ~
ping at the home of Mr. Ashley, on ti
Telfair street. Mr. Crouch was talking
with Mr. Bill Moody and Mr. George I
Allen, of Atlanta, when attacked, a
Physiciar.s were called immediately
and he was taken to a room in the ho- C
tel. About a year ago, it seems, be was si
sunstruck and it is this cause that
brought about his illness last night. g
Dr's. Foster, Dugas and W. H. Dough- il
ty, Sr., all concur in the opinion that
the trouble is at the base of his brain. '
During the night it was feared that he o
would die and to-day his condition is
very little improved. Mr. Crouch at P
one time kept a hotel at Spartanburg. g
He is about forty-five years of age..
