This 13 a Lucky Thirteen
The mothers of some of the Graded School
children s.re wrought up and exercised i".
minc over a communication recency received
from Superintendent Edmonds, and they dc
not know whet to ?o in the emergency.
They are not superstitious and have no fears
ef the fateful cumber 13, but still they do
! not k'iOW how to arrange for their children
to arrive at the scbooi house exactly tt 11.13
a. m-neither sooner cor tater. If little
bov3 and little giris could erny bs fitted with
some sort of alarm clock arrangement the
matter would be very much simplified, for
then the little to'? could be wound up every
morning and set to reach the scbooi grounds
precisely at ll 13 a. ra. But as this scheme
is inpracticable, there is no solution ia view,
end the writer ear:: ot offer a suggestion. A
newspaper man cat-not ;olve all vexed ciuei
tior.s submitt? d to him, nod this is one oi'the
times he fails The best that can be done is
? to advise the rr ethers ia dt?tr.--=s to forget ell
! they have eve: heard ahout the unlucky 13,
and impress upon trie "bas or their off-j
i springs that their luck lies in arriving on the j
?sebeo! ?rcun?1* a: ll 13 precise:? by their;
watches, which ?.h.^d net vary from thc j
?standard time set by the citv ck ck
Th? communication ?sst has caused the j
mothers so much anxiety rends as follows :
"Piense see hereafter th^t your child leaves
home just in time to reach iha school house
by 11.13 The members of tne Second Grade
and Second Dividion have been Iea7ing home
too soon, and consequently they have either
reached the grounds too socn or have bad to
stand OQ corners until about ll o'clock. I
know that, if this matter i3 called to your
attention, that you will see that ;t is reme?
died. S. H. Edmunds.
The Lucky Thirteen.
Editor Daily Item : I read and enjoyed the
arttcle in vour latest issue entitled, *'Tbii is
a Lucky Thirteen." In addition to theamu-te
tcent that its pleasantry affords ns informa?
tion gives me tbs opportunity of coming to
the assistance of those mothers "who are
wrought up and exercised in mind."
Permit me to say. first, that this notice was
not intended to be complete in itself ; but
each child, that received coe, was given a full
expianition of its meaning
As is well known to the patrons of the
school, the members of the Second Division
of the First Grade and of the Second Grade
are not due at the schcol building, until the
gong sounds after the first recess, and thev
have been frequently rt Quested not to come
too soon ; for, when they dc, they either dis?
toro tho3C, who are busy, by the noise they
make while playing or they congregate; on
the corners while waiting for the bell to sound
for the first recess
The object cf this notice wes explained to
the children, whicb?was that they should try
to leave home *o es to reach the school
grounds promptly at 11:13 : if cot, certainly
not later thin 11:13 or earlier than il.
Tni3 is the meaning of the notice that I sent
to the parents and I am gl<d that I have
beea given so early ac opportuuity to remove
any misunderstanding concerning it.
Coe word before closing: If our children
can be impressed wirb the idea of the value
of a minute, the next geoeratioo will save
many hours io being punctual ai ?ll appoint?
ments.

Upon arrival in Greenwood we were taken

received a card after signing our name, which

j tbe bod? :3 made up of Christina men this

frowned brows, no unseemly conduct, noth?
ing to mar the brightness of the picture,
it is a benediction 'o any people to have this
Convention come whhin the:- gates, cad a

rihe -essions of the Convention were held

Greenwood's nessie were net lucking in
hospitality, in fact it seemed that they vied
with each other ia their efforts to entertain
the young men.
Greenwood is one oT the hustliog up-coun?
try towns, and is destiued to be a centre of
industrial activity, having natural advan?
tages which few towns possess, backed up by
citizens who are not afraid to put tbeir
money into enterprises that will benefit tbe
towDs. Her court bouse is a beautiful one,
ber churches are mire beautiful, no town io
toe State bein/ superior to her io this par
ticular, while the hum of the spindles io the
two large cotton factories can be beard the
live long day. The waterworks pod electric
lights are owned by the town and are suc?
cessfully operated. The town is Oiled with
enterprises of lesser importance, that could
be enumerated but I must conclude.
I was much impressed with tue town and
its citizens, K: d so will everyone be who
sets foot within her norders.
