TeaeherH' Association.

The Teachers Association met
Saturday 9Th. On account Of un-
favorable weather the attendance was
rather small, but, as usual, q lively
interest was manifested Only one
of the lecturers, Miss Mamie Whites:
was present who read a well prepared
essay on MAP Drawing" She clear
ly showed that this subject demands
more attention than is usually given
to it: that to understand geography
thoroughly, it is necessary to devote
much time to the study of map
drawing. The teachers, generally;
expressed their opinion that it is
highly beneficial, but not always ex-
pedient in our country schools, where
there are so many children, and SC
many wants to be supplied.
The subject of holding a conven-
ton of two or three days during the
summer was brought up, but it was
deemed best to wait until the next
meeting to decide when it shall be
held. We hope that the next meet,
ing of the Association will be vel
attended, since we have postponed
the subject of textbooks until that
day.

another county; and Ill counties where
no candidates were presented. they
could vote for delegates who would

xfss ARE RIGHT.

Several papers in the Third Con
cressional District have stated tha5
strong solicitation is being presented
to Judge J. S. Cothran. OF Abbeville,
to induce him to enter the race IN
the Third Congressional District for
the purpose OF retaining the repre-
sentative in Abbeville County. Judge
Cothran is charming, able and
popular man. and would make an
acceptable and distinguished repre-
sentative. He has high qualification
for that kind Of work. We admire
his genius and his worth, but we do
not think he shonld consent to make
the race which IS urged upon him.
Abbeyille County has had the repre-
sentative for ten Years, and there is,
in our Judgment, no Justification for
calling on Circuit Judge to enter
the race to keep the other counties
from having the Congressman
These counties have able and up
