KINGSTBEE HIGH SCHOOL
Friday afternoon the Wee Nee Lit rary
society celebrated Cicero's
)irth-month by a very interesting
ind instructive programme.
The first number was, "The Story
>f Komuius ana Kemus, tne rouna?rsof
Rome," by George Hammet.
Daisy Strong then entertained the
ludienee by reciting in Latin, the
X>em, "Twinkle, Twinkle, Little
Star."
Roy Baker read a paper on the
'Life of Caesar," which was follow>d
by a reading, "Mark Antony's
Cration at the Death ??f Caesar," by
Leora Gamble.
The fifth number was a paper on,
'The Life of Cicero," by Minnie
strong.
In place of the reporters' papers,
which usually consist of the reading
Df current events, there were reports
made of important events and interesting
facts about the Rome of 2,000
years ago.
Perhaps the most interesting feature
of the programme was the debate,
"Resolved: That, the study of
r _* 1 - ?1 1 1- J a!
Latin snouia De requireu in uie punic
hisrh schools." Both the pros
ind cons took a lively interest, and
some excellent point* were brought
>ut. Some reasons given why Latin
should not be required were:
1. Latin is so difficult that it has
>ecome a mind and body killer.
2. It often causes pupils to leave
school from the 8th grade and acept
a $25 job, beyond which he
arely ever rises on account of his
ack of education.
3. In order to go through the
ligh school, a pupil is often tempted
0 get it dishonestly through the
tse of "ponies."
4. Latin requires about. twohirds
of the pupils' time; pence the
;nowledge gained, though valuable,
s not worth the price paid.
5. The mastery of philology, the
tudy of the origin and use of words,
a vyel! as the history of the English
anguage requires much less time,
,nd is easier. By studying philology
1 pupil rqay easily abandon Latin.
6. Well educated men have adised
the study of Latin, but they
iave also advised the study of "faiy
tales" such as those given in the
'Heart of Oak" classics. In this
msy. progressive Amerca, children
hould not be required to waste their
ime on faii-y tales and dead lan uages.
Some of the points brought out
iy the affirmative were:
1. All that is best in our literaure,
music, art, sculpture, agriculure
and government ha3 come down
o us directly from the Romans, or
adirectly from the Greeks through
he Romans as a medium. It is as
mpossible to enter into the thoughts
,nd feelings of these glorious people
xcept by direct translations as it
irould be to understand and appreiale
the writing of Shakespeare by
eading a criticism of his work.
2. A thorough knowlecge of English
cannot be obtained without
ome knowledge of Latin.
3. The study of Latin helps as
lothing else can in the spelling and
lerivation of English words.
4. The chief value of the high
ehool branches is the mental trainng
they give. Few, if any, are ever
nit into actual practice. As a mind
rainer Latin is second to none.
5. We need Latin socially?numlerless
Latin phrases are constantly
'floating in the air," as it were.
6. We need Latin from an educational
standpoint, because the coleges
either require some knowledge
>r it on entrance or tney require it
>f some other foreign language?
^Vench, German, Spanish and most
>f the other languages are based
lpon Latin, hence we need all the
^atin the high school can give, to
irepare us for the study of other
anguages.
7. We need l^atin in the business
vorld; conciseness combined with
irecision are. the two business essenials.
Caesar's message to the Senite,
"4 Veni,vidi,vici" illustrates the
iuperiority of the Latin in both
hese respects,and explains why doc*
_ i -ii # i
ors, lawyers ana omer proiessionai
nen make such constant use of Latn.
It is a fact worth mentioning
hat every member of the society,
ind,in fact,every pupil of the Kingsree
High school,is a student of
^atin.
The decision of the judges renlered
in fayor of the affirmative
/as doubtless gratifying to them.

A Letter to the Teachers.
Dear Friend:?
Last year Williamsburg county
had her first Athletic and Oratorical
contest among the high schools of
the county. This year it is our plan
to have a contest among the common
school grades as well. It will probably
be advisable to have separate
dates and places for the respective
contests. Among the features for
the lower grades we wish to have
runninc. broad iumDin:? and hicrh
jumping, an apple race for the girls
and at night a spelling match made
up of representatives of as many of
our schools as will enter pupils below
the 8th grade. I am now writing
to you to ask that you attend a
meeting at the Kingstree school at
12 m., Saturday, February 15, to
aid us in making arrangements for
these contests. All of our teachers,
both high and common schools, are
earnestly requested to be present.
We hope to see you there. With best
wishes, I am, Yours sicerely,
J G McCullough,
Co Supt Ed.
