church Fo,tlyal at Ebeneser.

MIR, EDITOR (: It was our good fortune
to be among the number that attended
the Church Festival at Ebenezer last
Friday. The occasion was success in
every sense of the word.
Just before dinner was served the
crowd assembled in the Church where
the following topics Of discussion were
disposed of: "The Church-its temporal
benefits Opened by Geo. 3. Prince,
ESQ, and participated in by pr. G. v.
Barnes and Col. B. F. Brown. Temper
ance-evils of intemperance, its remedies
and prospects," opened by Mr. g. G..
Featherston, followed by George E. Prince
Esq, and DR.. G. V. Barnes.
After this, the time was consumed by
partaking of one of the most elegant din
ners it was ever our good fortune to
handle, or at least to try to handle, and in
having a good, social time generally.
Several young ladies from distance we're
present, among whom we noticed Miss
Fannie Hall of Florida, Miss Lou
Breazeale from Greenville, Miss Sue Wat
son from Anderson, and Miss Emma
Clinkscalcs from Bolton. Taking. 1t
altogether, tho Church Festival at Ebe-
nezer was a very pleasant affair, and we
would advise anyone in search OF good
dinner, good time. or good looking
young ladies, to try the E6enezer COM
munity before going to any other market.

rTlHE Fall Session of this School begins
SJEPTEMBER 1st, 1885.
The scholastic year is divided into two
sessions of twenty weeks each, and extends
from '5eptember 1, 1885, to June 4, 1856,
with o. weeks intermission at Christmas.
The charges will be $1,000, $1400, $1,000
and $1,000 per session, according to the
grade of studies pursued. ALL charges be-
ein with the pupils entrance into the
School, and continue to the close of that
session, unless the pupil is prevented from
attending by serious illness. A contingent
fee of fifty cents per session will be re-
quired, to cover incidentals. :.
Payments must be made each hall
session in advance. This requirement will
be absolutely necessary in order that the
demands for Teachers hire, advertising and
rent of school property may be promptly
met. Don't complain at this, since you
well know that no business can be success
fully conducted on the uncertainty of q
credit basis, especially that of educating
the Young, which is of the first importance.
Let the Teacher be assured of his pay, and
it will act as a stimulus to good work.
Regard it as sacred duty to educate, and
thus elevate your children, and for that
purpose lay by from your earnings enough

Closing r4eFolses .,.a., Of Miss Ellie fields

MR.. EDITOR: A day Of unrivalled
beauty. an assembly as representative
and well. behaved as it was large, and
program filled to the, brim with entertain
ment, contributed to make the closing
exercises of Miss Ellie Reid's school; ct
Generostes Church last, Friday, coli-
plete and .unequivocal SUCCESS. The
church building, in which stage had
been inaproyised. and which was taste
fully decorated on the interior, was
crowded to its utmost capacity, when the
exercises were opened at $50 o'clock
with prayer by the Rev. Calvin Pressly.
The Bill of Fare for the day included
repertoire of 5S separate and distinct per-
formances, and occupied more than two
hours in it's presentation. In it were ar
ranged in judicious and pleasing variety,
charades, dialogues, rotations slpglyg
and in concert, extract speeches and
essays, in the rendering OF which almost
the entire school. took part. The essays
of Misses Lula Shefard, Essle ,Bowiei
Maggie stevedson, Sallie Sh5ratd aud
Mamie Pressly were read by proxy.
No higher compliment could have Deen
paid to the excellent execution OF every
detail of the program than was expressed
in the unbroken attention bestowed there.
on by the large audience, comprising as It
did, the patrons and friends of the school,
with many visitors, who, while not per-
sonally interested, could but remark the
evidences of careful and we'll. directed
effort on the part of the teacher in the
promptness, faithfulness, and ease with
which each item was performed.
A farewell Address" read by Miss
Reid formed the finale of the occasion, so
far as regarded the elocutionary and dra-
matte portions thereof. The next all-ab-
sorbing and all-consuming topic was the
consideration of dinner of immeasu-
rable bountifulness and inexpressible
toothsomeness'' which had been spread
meath shading oaks.
After an interval Of an hour and half
seats were removed to the grove surround
ing the church and addresses were LIS,
tened to from Baxter Cinkscales and
terrupted in the midst of his speech by o
thunder shower, which, while 1t was not
s'down on the bills" had the effect of
rapidly and thoroughly dispensing the
crowd. The calamity was intensified, in
That it prevented the hearing of an address
from Col, Jno. G.. Clinkscales who was in
attendance during the day.
With the clearing away Of the clouds
came the breaking up Of the crowd OF
pupils and friends, accompanied by
mutual congratulations upon the success
of the occasion, and expressions of praise
for the young teacher who had had the
pluck to attempt such an exhibition and
the ability to carry 1t to successful issue.
Miss Reid is from Due West, and has only
had charge of the school for the past
session. The young America Cornet
Band gathered unto themselves host OF
friends for their kindness in furnishing
music of the most superior quality and
in the most liberal quantity throughout
the Occasion. T.: E. II.

To the Teachers.

We hope every teacher Of q public
the County Normal next week. Do uot
forget that the Normal is for your special
benefit. It will pay you and pay the
community in which you teach. Be on
hand at the opening session, if possible.
Let the trustees be present, at least part
of the time, If they can. We hope to
have present every teacher and as many
of the patrons of public schools as feel an
interest in the success of the schools. Let
no teacher flatter himself that he knows
enough about the art of teaching. Many
men know very well what to teach, but
do not know how to get about it. There
is much for us all to learn.
Respectfully,
J. G. CLINKsOALRs,
School Commissioner.

Ladam, Mossey and Young, procured a
