T TEA(ERS' MEBTING. Interesting and Thoughtful Address by Prof. B. L. Hughes Upon the Sub ject, "Two Problems of Civil zation." The regular monthly meeting of the teachers of Newberry county was held in the Boundry Street Graded School building Saturday morning. Owing to the very disagreeable weather, the attendance was not very large, but the meeting was interesting and a most pleasant one. The address was delivered by Prof E. L. Hughes, of the Greenville city schools. Prof. Hughes is one of the leading educators of the State and is at all times a pleas ant andinteresting talker. His address upon this occasion was what was ex pected of him-clear cut, practical and full of thought. And it was peculiarly appropriate to the time and the occa ion and. dealt with a question which cannot be too closely studied by the teachers of the present age. His sub was, "Two Great Problems of Civiliza tion. He said he appreciated very highly the privilege of being herer on this )ccasion. In days gone by he had known very pleasantly many Newbe;ry people, whom he was glad to have the pportunity of meeting again. He wanted this morning to talk about "Two Great Problems of Civilization." The purpose of Civilization is to make men more efficient. The cheif elements in efficiency are health, intelligence and morality. The civilized man should be healthier, physically and morally, than the savage. He said he had rather be a avage and stand erect in the forest and be able to take in the lessons which Nature teaches, which after all are the best, than to be a eivilized man in the highest state of civilization yet known and to be diseased in mind and body. The civilizations which have existed on the earth did not fall from lack of in. teligence. Assyria and Babylon left behind them records which prove that hey had a degree of intelligence which, men the civilization of today might; nvy. And so with the civilizations of gypt, Greece and Rome-they all had hen excelledcies and the civilization of oday is enjoying the priceless legacies vhich they have left. It was not from ack of intelligence that they fell, but nsaccount of a deterioration in health ad mortality. Increased intelligence, realth, luxury, self-indulgence, degen-1 racy summarize the history of fallen I istioris. The problem of our civiliza- 3 ion is how to increase intelligence and t the same time avoid this downward t endency. This problem is a dual: it i ecomes aquestion of preserving health e nd morals. Education is th~e most essential factor i divilization. These problems then re for the .dacatoi'. Public schools ould be conservators of public wel re as well as centres. of intelligence. fat can they do to help solve these roblems,'rand how can it be done? There is both a negative and a posi ive side to leygiene and ethics. The d osaic code contained ten prohibitions a nd three positive commands. In rist's code, or the sumnmary of the U Lw are two, both positive. The posi- d e side is the most natural; action is 1 aer than restraint, especially. Tn a bldhopd and in youth. The negative S de is rirght, but what he meant to say as that the teacher should take hold 'a f the most natural side, the positive J1 d. Conscience has a positive side v ad a negative side. It may be so c ulled that itwilllimpose no penal;y for g rong doing, but every man's con- D sienee guiekens with a snse of duty one. So that if the teacher can take ld of the positive aide in dealinRg with ie child, heowill have conscence on is side. There are three vital physical pro asses: respiration, circulation, and igestion. There are three vital ele ients in morality: reverence, service, t ad obedience. These are all positive sngs thatrmust be done. "Thesedo d thou shalt live." Those who would, fectually promote health and morality mst look to these. No restraints can ske the place of these. Prof. Hughes said that his subject b ere ran into "hero worship." Hea n lead for a revival of hero worship as die very basis of rendering good ser-0 ice and accomplishing good results 'in ealth and morality, in strength ofd ody and of soul. Physical strength nd moral excellence make the hero. a all ages humanity has -worshipped ieir gods from afar off; they were hieir ideals, unapproachable ideals. t 'hey worshipped ' their heroes, who aine near to them and were their nodels. The speaker thought the reasond rhy every man and woman is a hero 'orshipper is because our heroes rep esent what we long to be,and he be eed that so long as a people worship i eroes they are safe in a measure from, hysical and moral decline. He be- a eed it just as essential to right living a have heroes as to have gods. Thee ero represents to us what is possible I o our humanity in approaching the 11 Being whom we reverence. If it were Lot necessary to have human models, hy did Christ have to come to eartht o live thirty-three years of sorrowing' ife. The fact that he camne to live uong uWgoes to show that men should ave the highest possible models for I ving on earth. Whenever in the his ory of nations hero whorship dies, the rods are soon forgot. When men cease o build monuments to their heroes, it i vill not belong till the altars of the I rods are overthrown. Inspiration is i till the mother of achievement. If j he heroes are of the right sort the I vorshippers will be. The work then to 1 rhich the teachers should set them- 4 Only one right carries the YOU C When you get Cli new goods.

No ing,no selves is to furnish those whom they teach with these hero models. The ef fect of character upon character, of life upon life, must still be supreme. Unfortunately it is not given to many teachers to be hero models themselves. Therefore, call the roll of the departed great and let the shades of heroes be summoned that more of their sort may be bred. However, it should be borne in mind that every great man, every man who has risen to sublime heights, { is not a hero. The man, who, with dirty overalls, risks his life to save his fellowman may not be considered great, but we know he is a hero, and we feel somehow that.if we had the same chance, we would do that same thing. In conclusion, the speaker pointed to some heroes, advising the teachers to find more and to hold them up to their pupils. The heroes mentioned were: Bible-Noah, Abraham, Esau, Joseph, Moses, Joshua, Caleb, Gideon, Samson, Ruth, David, Jonathan, Uriah, Elijah, Job, Esther, Nehemiah, Daniel, Han aniah, Azariah, Peter, John, Paul, the Marys; History-Socrates, Leo nidas, Horatius, Regulus, Cesar, Brutus, Richard, Joan of Arc, Luther, Cromwell, Nelson, Wallace, Emmett Columbus, LaSalle, Cortez, Washing ton, John Paul Jones, Perry, Nathan, Hale, Marion, Sumter, Old Hickory, Lincoln, Grant, Lee, Jackson; Poetry and Fiction-Ivanhoe, Enoch Arden, Sydney Carton, Damon and Pythias. The speaker told somewhat of the heroric in the life of each, and strongly urged his hearers to complete the list. The next most impQrtant thing was for each teacher to be supplied with a list of stories, containing beautiful lessons of heroism and niorality. VARIOUS AND ALL ABOUT.
