The judges will be composed of live disinterested parties headed by the tounty Superintendent of Education. All essays must be in The County Record office March 1 and must be strictly original. Everyone should start out with good resolutions for the year 1913. I am going to study and get the best marks 1 have ever gotten. I am not guing to get any demerits the whole year and I should not expect my teacher to give me any more than I make on my lessons. I am going to obey my teacher, so that I will not make her spend half of her time answering questions and telling me to keep quiet when I should be studying or listening to what she is saying. The thing to do is to obey your teacher and you will not get into any trouble. People should work and make something new come in every day, so that we will know more and more every day, which I think we should. About one or two hundred years ago people did not have the advantages we have now and I hope in one or two hundred years from today people will have more advantages than we have now. Edgar Baker. The way to spent} the days of the new year is to do your best each day. While in school you should learn each lesson perfectly and not get any demerits, and when your teacher asks you to do a job, do it and do not complain.

If father does not feel well and wants you to fro and get some medicine for him, or mother wants some wood in the kitchen, go ahead and get it. Be kind to other members of the family or anybody else, and do not pick a quarrel. Be kind to your pet animals and other animals, and they will be kind to you. If a friend comes to see you, be kind to him and he will come to see you again. Play any games he wants to play, if you know how to play them, and if you get any fruit, divide it with your company. If you do a kind deed to any or make anybody happy it will make you happy also. I am a boy of the fifth grade and when vacation comes, I hope to feel that I have done a good year's work and can lay books aside and have a good time, and not be reviewing to make the next grade. H E Montgomery. There are a great many resolutions made at the beginning of a new year, but a very few of them are ever carried out. 1 made a few and I hope I will succeed io carrying them out. They are to study . hard and try to know my lessons in order to be promoted. Then I want to help my parents all that I can and try to be good to everybody and make them as happy as I can. I hope I will be able to continue to do so. At the end of the month I like to walk into mv school room and find my name on the honor roll. In order to get on it I will have to study ' hard. I have made up my mind that after examinations I am going to study real hard and get on the honor roll with a good average. After I get through studying and doing all of my work for the afternoon, I always like to go for a walk to gather wild flowers, go horseback riding or take some other good exercises. When summer comes the school children are always getting up picnics. They generally get one or two of the teachers to go with them, for they always want some older person along with them. I always like for that time to come, because we have such gcod times. Sometimes we go to a saw dust pile or in tne woods under the shade of trees. In the summer after school stops i want to go off and spend a while with some of my friends. I hav? also resolved to attend Sunday-school and preaching more often this year than I did last year. Mary McCanis. rhe best way to spend a profitable /ear is to make some resolutions at the beginning of the new year. In making these resolutions let us try to live up to them. To do this we must spend each moment of the day in a useful way. But there is no ase to make these resolutions unless they are made in the right spirit and with the determination that we will live up to them each day. To live each day right we must have the grit and determination to make each day better than the one before. Determination toward the right thing is the whole secret of | Pale Faces | ?1 Pale-faced, weak, and ' jj shaky women?who suffer every day with womanly gf weakness?need tne neip gs of a gentle tonic, with p a building action on the Jpp womanly system.

Everybody as a rule has a pick at January because it reminds us of what we have promised to do for a new and happier year. We have behind us our old faults and begin each day over. To mention all of the things we must or must not do would be tiresome. But, first, we will mention some of the things we must shun to live right. We must not use indecent language or curse, play games of chance,have undesirable associates,loaf the street, disregard the Sabbath, neither must He by our negligence or laziness cause other people any trouble. And never for a minute lose control of our temper and tongue; we should not speak about any one unless we can say sunieunug nut;. Now, we can name some of the things we can and ought to do. Be studious and industrious, kind to dumb animals and, above all, he nor our parents. Let us try to dc> all we can to lift other people's burdens and troubles. Be cheerful and happy. If we live by the golden rule , we shall not regret it. 1913 wi'l be an unlucky year for all cowards, cheats, lazy people and sneaks. But to those who strive honestly and cleanly it will be the happiest year 1 they have ever spent. James Sullivan, Kingstree Graded Sch ool.
