TEACHERS COLUMN.
Teachers Association.

About twenty of our teachers met at
the Graded School building last Satur-
day. The association was called to
order by the School Commissioner.
Prof. Laird, the president of the associ-
alton having lett the county, Prof. J.
+. Brown was elected president, Miss
Fannie Baxter was chosen secretary in
place Of Miss Alice Cozby, resigned.
The elections over, the programme
for the day was taken up. Miss MalIe
Wheeler, with a class Of about twenty
from the third grade of the Newberrv
schools, gave the teachers an interest,"
ing lesson in primary English. The
exercise was thorough, Instructive,
and entirely practical. y general dis
cusslon OF tile question showed that
English is not taught as it should he
III our schools. The pupils begin the
study OF technical grammar too early.
The course OF study prepared by u
committee, selected for the purpose,
Was taken up and pretty well discussed.
The course, as mapped out, requires
eight years. Some We're of the opinion
that it was not far enough advanced,
but should include more of the higher
branches, and not so much time lie
given to primary and intermediate
work. The association, however, adopt-
ed the course reported by the commit
tee, without any change.
The school district plan was not dis
cussed, as the school trustees of the
county were not present. This is a
cause of regret to the association as the
question is one Of great importance to

dorsed for appointment as members of

perhaps will yield to the wishes of the
association this time.
The State Teachers Association hay
ing decided to establish Il place of re-
sort for teachers during the summer
months, and to erect a building where
the teachers of the State can meet to-
gether. Prof. Brown called on the
members present to aid in the enter
prise. Several responded, and Others, |
when they see the benefits to be de- !
rived from the work, will fall in. Any !
teacher, or other person, interested in |
the public schools has the privilege of |!
becoming a 'o,kholder. For any in
formation in regard to the matter,
teachers can apply to Prof. Brown.
1t was decided to hold the next !
of the association at Prosperity.
4 full attendance is desired We nope |
that the teachers in and around New
berry will go down to Prosperity to !
meet the teachers of that section.

Two school districts were established
in Newberry County in 1883. Th, Sc
districts are nearly square and contain
something over sixteen square miles
each.
This year about $500 was apportioned
to each of these districts from the two
mills tax, besides this the poll tax was
added to the fund. In one district an
extra tax was raised.
At twenty-five dollars per month,
the amount given to first grade teach
ers in many of our townships, there
would be enough to run the schools
over six months. The people of the
county should think of this, and decide
to make the change.

An act was passed at the last session
of the General Assembly which will
enable the treasurer to collect larger
poll tax than ever before. Act 40,
Sec. 2296, reads:
cat the expiration of the time pre-
scribed by law to receive returns, each
county Auditor shall make out and
forward to the Board of Trustees of
each School District within his county
a correct list of the polls returned from
their respective districts. The school
trustees shall examine carefully said
list and report to the Auditor as soon as
pla ;ticable the names of all persons who
shall have failed or neglected to make
returns, and it shall be the duty of the
Auditor to enter upon the books the
names of all persons thus reported to
him by boards Of school trustees"
The act is good one and should be
carried out. There are great many
who do not pay their poll tax, and as
the polls are held for the townships in
which they are collected: it would be
we'll for trustees to attend to the matter
carefully. They are to look after the
interests of the public schools, and
should do all in their power to increase
the school fund.
