IACM OF FUNDS HANDICAPS SCHOOL-PERSONAL, SOCIAL AND LOCAL ITEMS. Lake Citv. June 20:?Hon Ben B 'Sellers, candidate for Congressman from the sixth district, spent two or three days last week in this vicinity. Joe Burgess, a well-known negro <rf this community, was arrested last week on three charges of selling liquor. One case was tried Saturday by Intendant Blackwell and a jury. The verdict of "guilty" was found and Joe was sentenced to a tine of $100 or thirty days on the vang. The other two cases will be tried later. A certain road overseer, who is somewhat of a philosopher, one day recently remarked: "When I came into the world I found things tangled, and seems like, you know, I believe I've got to leave things in pretty much the same fix." This is a right good indication that this philosopher has cut his wisdom teeth, and that the future of his life vrill have less worry than the past. Mr Frank Tharin came down from Florence a short while Monday moraine. Mr J C Murchison of Charleston, division superintendent of the Atlantic Coast Line, was in town Saturday last. Mr General W Johnson of John. aonville was here two or three days recently. He came up especially to see his niece, Miss Mamie Allen,who wa& ili Mr. Johnson does not weigh two hundred yet. Mr T P Fulmore, who is postmaster at Cades, was noted here Sunday afternoon. Sir J M Truluck has returned "borne from the mountains of East Tennessee, where he spent a few delightful weeks. When Auctioneer Carter waltzed down street Saturday everybody knew for a certainty that the tobac co season was on. All other signs' may fail, but this one, never. Dr A H Williams and daughter,' Miss Ruth, have gone to Cottage-1 ville, Colleton county. I The announcement that Mr Thos M Seawell would continue to be sup, erintendent of the graded and high schools was premature. It can now be definitely stated that he will not be superintendent next year. Only four teachers have been elected so far, and they are Miss Bertha Morris, Mrs Katie Lee Baird and Misses Wilma Gibson and Amber Wilkes. | The trustees are seriously hampered in securing a corps of teachers byi lack of sufficient funds with which | uj pay just the number and kind: needed. The revenue is entirely too little for a school having the number J n-e nKHHrpn ours has. The crop of "kids" is one of our largest crops.; This soil and climate produces any- i thing, especially children; and to ed- j ucate these children properly we must have money. Poor pay means j poor teachers. You can't expect anything else. No people on earth deserve more and receive less. Why is this? It convicts our entire school system and our own selves. Mr L M Belk has the first ripe tomotoes we have seen. He has grown peppers too. Right early, eh? A good many folks from here joined the Charleston excursionists Monday. Some, too, didn't get back until the day after. This, of course, i ...

Miss Inez Wooten of Kinston, N C, is spending some time with her sister, Mrs Fred Hines. Miss Sue Shaw of Charleston is visiting at the home of her sister, J Mrs D M Epps. Mrs M K Graveley and children are visiting the former's parents at Union Hall, Va. Mr and Mrs Mortimer Hawkins cf Kingstree spent several days this 1 :i.L ** 1 U n.

The trustees of Kingstree Graded and High school met on Friday of last week and elected the remaining complement of teachers for the ensuing scholastic year, Mr Swittenberg having been elected superintendent some weeks ago. Miss Irene Robinson,of Powhatan, Va, who held the chair of Latin and history for six years in Powhatan College, was chosen as principal of the high school department, and the following other teachers were elected: Miss Banna Wilkins, of Gaffney; Miss Marian Lide, of Darlington; Miss Lula Fowler, of Woodruff; Miss 4 W T7( 1 -i A. OT. CirCKIimilll, Vl \jiiai icaiuu, cuiu Miss A E Campbell, of Newton,N C. The two last named ladies are the only members retained of last year's faculty. Miss Erckmann has filled the position of primary teacher with admirable success for four or five years and Miss Campbell has performed the duties of music teacher capably and well for the past three years. Mr Sw ittenberg, the superintendent elect, has been at the head of Fickens Graded school for six years and comes here very highly recommended for his efficiency and executive ability in school work and withal as a cultured gentleman of high character and attainments. Under his leadership, supplemented by the efforts of his capable assistants, we may look forward to a larger measure of success for our excellent school system even than has been enjoyed in years gone by. Deafness Cannot Be Cured By local applications as they cannot reach the diseased portion of the ear. There is only one way to cure deafness, and that is by constitu tional remedies. Deafness is caused by an inflamed condition of the mucous lining of the Eustachian Tube. When this tube is inflamed you have a rumbling sound or imperfect hearing, and when it is entirely closed, deafness is the result, and unless this inflammation can be taken out and this tube restored to its normal condition, hearing will be destroyed forever; nine cases out of ten are caused by catarrh, which is nothing but an inflamed condition of the mucous surfaces. We will give One Hundred Dollars for any case of deafness (caused by catarrh) that cannot be cured by Hall's Catarrh Cure. Send for circulars, free. F. J. Cheney & Co., Toledo, 0.
