The present session will require about $1,200 more than the aura required last year for the reason that two new schools have been opened up this session?one at Monarch Mills and one at the Knitting Mills. Next season two more teachers will be needed. This will slightly increase theexpeuse of next year over this year. But does any one question the wisdom of exp ulsion? The need is pressing. Our city is growing rapidly. No citizen of Union could say that we are spending too much money for schools. Be it said to the credit of the leading men o? business in Union that they have always shown a most commendable zeal for the advancement of our school interests. They meet year after year and willingly vote the additional tax for keeping our schools abreast of the times. And they thus show good judgment as well as worthy interest Hardiy a day passes but that some man moves into Union. When you ask him why he came he will tell you: 4,To educate my children."

Children of lich and poor are invited to come in and enjoy the blessings of a^ood graded school training. The business men of Uniou, with their widea-wake polioy, the trustees of our schools, the splendid teachers in our schools, and last but not least, our etlicient superintendent, Prof. Davis Jeffries, are to be congratulated upon the goou advance we are making with our common school education. Let every man know that we have the best that can be found, and that we are still not satisfied, for we feel that there are yet advances which we must and will make. - Thoughts for School Children.

Moie than tins could lie said Every loyal citizen of Union lit els a personal inlet est in the progress or evciy boy atul girl in attendance upon our schools. Most certainly the Editor leels a sincere interest in every one of them. God bless these little men and women. They are seeking wisdom Great opportunities are opening before them; grave r.-sponslbilitler must soon fall upon them. They are seeking to be qualified for citizenship. They are laying a foundation for usefulness. May their earnest preparation bring to thein the fultilmeut of their fond hopes of success. It is not the intention of the writer to deliver them a lecture or preach them a sermon. These words are written that they may ' know that they are not forgotten, and with the tamest desire that scms little help and encouragemeut may be given. Most school boys and girls love their teachers. This is as it should be. For the teacher is seeking to do the student good. Sometimes a child comes to regard the teacher as a taskmaster, a sort of hard hearted tyrant who delights in the misery of the seeker after wisdom. Sometimes a boy feels that he is hardly used, that the teacher shows partiality and does not meet out even handed justice. Let the little man remember that passible he is to blame, that after all the teacher is seeking his highest good. Let him go in to win the teachers good will. lie will tiud very soon that me way wwi unguieu auu scnooi are win be a thing of Joy. Be careful to make friends among your school mates. You cannot afford to neglect the humblest one of them. It is an ugly sign that a child has few friends among his schoolfellows. It is a sigu that promises 110 good for the future. And for a child, as for all others, it is true that to win friends it is necessary to show the spirit of friendship. you cauAot afford to neglect ' the dull" boy or girl That boy that you have come to regard as dull may be a sleeping giant that will some day lie aroused and startle the world with his achievements. You may think that because he is "slow at figures" that he will be slow at everything. Wiser people than you have been woefully mistaken along this liqe. The iKiorest child may one day be a leader in the great world of business. It will be a comfort to you that you had the nobility of soul to show him a spirit of helpfulness. It is comforting to know thst you had a hand in the making of a m in or woman. And thauld no such great lesults follow from your honest effort to help another to nobler things, you will have the consolation of having tried to to l>e helpful. The great lesson that the school child should learn is the lesson of self control. It is a thing you will never learn absolutely, but the more progress yon make in that direction, the surer you inay be of fulfilling the requirements of a noble life. It is perhaps true that rqany a boy finds it hard woik to keep up with his classes for the simple reason that he has not learned self restraint. A school boy or girl stuffed with candy and other sweet meats will have little room for thought to find lodgment iu tlie mind. Some boys are such miserable slaves to the cigarette habit that m'.nd and body are dwarfed and tliey stapd little chance to keep their place amor\?the advancing ranks. rp. i* FOR SALE--126 acres of land near Monarch Cotton Mill, suitable for truck or deiry farming.

It is no new thing for children to at into trouble from eating green fruit, bu it is not often that a difficulty like tlu following arises. Little Marie, tin three year old daughter of Mr. and Mrs J. II. Wilburn, saw her brother who 1 several years her senior put "sweei shrubs" to his nose to smell them. Tlu little girl got bold of a green cherry an<: was attempting to see if it was sweet smelling. The cherry got lodged in tin child's nostril and gave considerable trouble liefore it could be extracted. The cavity in the nose became swollen and irritated Drs. Linder and son were C died inland had to admin s'erlehloroforn before they succeeded in dislodging the cherry. We are glad to know that nr. real harm came of the matter save a good degree of excitement on the pai I f the parents and friends. The little girl is perfectly well again. Dropped Dead.

He told Mr. W. W. Dixon that he bad $'1,000 in the bank. Also that Mr. Tinsley had $2,400 dollars worth of gold belonging to him. Dr. Lawsonaud others came to the man in two or three minutes after he fell on t he street and found him quite dead. T ie Coroner's inquest was that he "came to his death by some cause unknown," It Is probable that he died with heart disease.
