The Teachers Association

Was held at the Graded School last
Saturday. A goodly number of teach
ers and visitors were present. After
roll call and reading of minutes of the
previous meeting, the regular order o.
business was taken up.
The first subject, System in oul
Schools by Prof. Evans, was ably
handled. After the reading of the pa
per, Mr.. Evans being obliged to leave
on business, Mr.. Keitt was called to the
chair.
The next subject, "The Principles oI
Education," was handled in a master,
full manner by DR.. Holland. This paper
will appear in next weeks Herald and
News, so we will refer all persons to
that issue for treat.
Primary work." by Mrs. S. B. Boo
zer, vas handled in a forceful manner,
many strong points were made and
emphasized.
The fourth and last subject, "Draw-
ing in our Schools-The Faculties
Trained" on account Of the absence OF
Prof. Welch, was opened in a pointed
talk by Prof. Voigt. Prof. Voigt
thought that drawing would train the
observation, especially, and also cult
vate the artistic tendencies of child
hood. His talk was excellent.
Mr.. Keitt thought that the memory
and Judgment were cultivated also. In
asmuch as memory was needed to trans
fer forms to paper, and Judgment mus
be used in regard to proportion. Profs
Sigh and Evans gave pointed talks OF
the subject.
This closing the subject, committee
were called upon for reports. The ex
ecutive committee asked leave to re
port through the press. The reques
was granted. The Association thel
adjourned to meet on the second Satur
day in April.

NOTES FROM EXCELSIOR.

Owing to the busy season of the year
our school still has good attendance.
Gardening and Irish potato planting
is now taking the day with our people.
Mr.. J. C. Counts has been spending
several days in Greenville as ajuror in
the United States Court.
Mrs. Griffin and Mrs. Enlow, of
Gallman community, visited relatives
and friends in our village last week.
Our early gardeners had their young
vegetation destroyed by the freeze OF
last Saturday night. Just about IS we
expected.
We had the pleasure of meeting our
friend Mr.. w. B. Rikard, of Black
Vile, a few days ago. Glad to see him
looking so we'll and that he was well
pleased with his new place of abode.
The weather has been fine for several
days past and farm work has been on
a boom. Small grain looks nice and
the farmers have no room for COM
plant but should feel happy and cheer
full.
Capt. T. l.. Wheeler has just put MS
section of the Columbia road in good
condition. 1t just takes our friend
"Dick" to do such road work and in
fact he is nearly large enough to do
any kind Of work.
We are Informed that rogucs broke
into Mr.. Jacob Kibler's diningroom
near Mt. Pilgrim church recently and
deprived him of several dollars worth
of provisions. No more hog stealing
has taken place in our little village re-
Gently. Quite number of our people
now put their hogs under the care Of a
clock" at night which may prove q
first class idea.
Mr.. Editor, we were glad to see in
YOUR last issue that you were to soon
have a new passenger depot at the c.,
Y. 81. road. Both roads should have
united and erected Union depot which
would have been beauty to your city
and convenience to each line.

Little Miss.Lilian Shockley, of Lau'
reus. was on visit to her cousin Eu-
nice last week.
Mr.. and Mrs. C. L. Blease and young
Mr.. Clint Summers returned with very
pleasant recollections of their Wash
ington trip. But yesterday, as 1t were
r. was Master Clint, and now we are
glad that our young friend, who is de-
yeloping into a generously gifted man
hood, had the pleasure OF witnessing
perhaps the greatest Inauguration OF q
democratic president in the history Of
the country, and to see for himself
something of the growing greatness OF
our common country. N. Blease was
admitted to practice in the United
States Supreme Court. Mr.. Blease also
had the pleasure Of seeing his dlstln'
cuished relative, J. J. Darlington, a
Young Carolinian, located at Washing
Ton, and who is prominent among the
notable and leading lawyers OF the
country.
Iti is refreshing to see the prepara'
tions for planting and gardening on
all sides. It is to be devo1tly wished
that the country may have full supply
of the delicious fruit acids and vegeta,
bic iuices. so essential to health, as well
So an abundant yield Of the staple
crons SANS SOCCI.

County Board Of Equalization.

The County Board of Equalization
held meeting in the Auditors office
yesterday for the purpose of going over
the returns and hearing complaints.
There were very few complaints and
but for the matter of the Banks return
the board would have been in session
but short time. It does seem little
strange that this particular class of
property should be singled out but such
is the case.
The National Bank of Newberry had
returned its property at $l50,00O. The
Savings Bank had made its return at
$4,000. It seems, as stated above that
the board looked upon these two classes
of property as the only ones that it was
their business to look after, and all Of
their time was taken up in discussing
these two returns.
After recess it was decided to raise
the National Banks return $50, 600,
making the assessment or valuation
$40, 1000; and to raise the assessment of
the Savings Bank 81, 700, putting its
valuation at S14,750.
Under an Act of the last Legislature
it would seem that the Auditor has
power to increase the assessment, even
after it has been passed upon by the
Board of Equalization, but whether
Auditor Cromer will increase it or let
it stand as the board has put it, we are
unable to say. Full power is given the
Auditor to act independent Of what
rights are conferred upon the Board Of
Equalization or other officers.
The board was in session all day.
All the Townships were represented
except No. 7. The following were
present:
No. l. L. NJ. Speers; No. 2, Thos. w.
Keitt; No. 8, w. B. Oxner; No. 4, M.
A. Renwick No. 5, T. H. Chalmers;
No. 6, J. r. Spearman; No. S, I. H..

In loving remembrance of William
Zobel, who fell asleep March 8, 1892, IL
the 62nd year of his age.
One year ago, to-day, deaths shadow
darkened our happy home, and the be-
loved husband and father left Us to
enter upon bis heavenly inheritance.
One year ago. yet it seems but yes
terday that We looked into his dear
face, and heard his loving voice, so
fresh is his memory in our hearts; and
oh how we long for ''the touch of a
vanished hand and the sound Of voice
that is still"
But Gods will be done and we
leave him to his rest under the requiem
of the pines and "the silent voices of
the night" in the sweet assurance
Of those who, through faith, "fall asleep
in Jesus" that it is our privilege 70
meet him again in the morning of
brighter day. HIS LOVING ONES.

if he were to apply he would stand a
