The cards go into every county in the state—in fact, t(« every smallest town and hamlet.

The actual mailing of plates will be gin November 25, according to Mr. Turret and they are to be displayed on cars not later than January 1. The new plates, black letters and numerals on a white background, are now’ at the off’ces of the licensing division rapid order. “All of the renewal cards will have been mailed by November 14,” Mr. Turner said yesterday. “If owners of automobiles have not received their cards by November 24, they should write to us so that the matter may be looked into and duplicates sent out.” Mr. Turner is Hopeful thai- ^tjar owners will be prompt in sending in their checks for new license plates so that there will be no great cc*n- gestion on the last day of the year, when hundreds of checks will likely be received. txt Rough HouSe r Rosie” Clara Bow’s Succesor To “It!” INTRODUCING “ROUGH HOUSE ROSIE” Gents* step r’ght up and meet “Rough House Rosie”—the girl men never forget!

The first three periods of the game truly belonged to Newberry but in the last quarter the Washington boys waked up. From then on they did some of the best playing they have ever done but the story was too near told for them! to come to the end as the victor. Ed Prescott was the shining light for Washington. He made both touchdowns by scooping up two fumbles and racing on winged feet. The first time he flew sixty yards and the next time forty yards. The boys all enjoyed the trip and each said it was well worthwhile even though the winning score went to the other team. S.

LOCALMARKET AIY IDEAL TEACHER Aly ideal teacher can be either a man or a woman and should have the following good points. Fiiat, my ideal teacher should have a goed personal appearance. This counts much in one's success as a teacher. I would not like a teacher who is ugly or hag a bad face. He or she should dress nicely. Next comes personality. My gje teacher has a good pelsonaKty and is friendly to all the pupils. I like a teacher who has self-control and does not loose his or her temper. My id al teacher is m.‘; so very strict but keeps order in the school room just the same. He or she should have-a jolly dispesit’on. My ideal teacher is a Christian and a member of the church. A teacher who stays in good health can cany on the school work better than one who is weak and for this reason I like a teacher who has good health. When a teacher is feei ng bad all the time he o: she is more likely to stay cross and fuss a whole lot. This kind o' teacher has little patience and cannot teach very well. My ideal teacher is smart and a college graduate and is thorough on the subject that he or she teaches. He or she . should use the modern methods of teaching. ROBERT AIIDDLETQN.

Job speak on his favorite subject—• “Wild Life.” Mr. Job is the South Carolina State Director of Nature and Conservation Education and is try’ng to interest the boys and girls in the protection of valuable birds and other wild friends of ours. He showed a number of tinted pictures that he had taken of wild birds, lab- bits, foxes, and other animals in their native haunts. Mr. Alayer has offered a prize of one dollar to the boy or girl writing the best theme based on Mr. Job’s talk and this composition will ap pear in school news sometime soon.
