School is jogging along as usual
The following new pupils have
been enrolled since our last com
munication, viz: L. J. Rhodes,
Worcester Chandler, Roy Drum,
Rdsselr Allen, and Miss Hahn.
We are sorry to lose some of our
best pupils, who have dropped out
to attend to the farm work and ber-
ry crops.
The debaters of the Excelsior
Society have lately decided that
the Indians have been more cruelty
treated than the negroes and that
the invention Of labor-saving ma
chinery has not been conducive to
the welfare Of humanity.
These are fine days for attending
school. Earth and sky seem to
blend their loveliness for the delec-
tation of mankind.
The psychology class has some
interesting discussions on various
subjects, the latest being the office
Of conscience and whether it can
be educated.
A majority Of the pupils of the
MS. academy who are desirous of
teaching the coming school year
have already found employment,
but quite number of excellent
young men and women are still
unengaged. School boards not yet
having employed teachers would do
well to look after some Of these.

LOng-Lived Trees.

Although oaks, elms, cedars and
hlckories attain to great age, nc
tree is so long-lived as the palmetto
OF the south, especially that variety
which grows along the banks of the
Indian river, Florida. These trees
are trem forty to fifty feet high,
with a diameter Of eight to ten in
ches and so smooth that they look
as if they had been planed by a
carpenter up to about three feet of
the green, spreading leaves which
form a top, withouta single branch.
Indian river palmettos are from
3OO to 800 years old and so tough
that in storms they will bend
almost to the ground without break
ing. Residents near the Indian river
say that the trees have not grown
SIX feet in the last thirty years.
"Cabbage palmettos,' as they are
called-trom the fact that their cab
oage-llke tops when young form
palatable .fOod-grow only from
the top. If a rifle ball were to pen
citrate this top the tree would die.
though almost any amount of hack
ing may be done to the trunk with
out injury to the tree.

An Untold Story.

She is maiden aunt who has ceased to
hide her spectacles when gentleman calls,
and likes to knit rather than be idle.
"Ofcourse, there's romance in your life,
auntie," declared her dashing niece the other
day. There's romance in every womans
life. Now be good and tell me yours
Its nothing" and The kindly face blushed
almost into usefulness. There was very
attractive young man with whom had grown
up. We hau been thrown together great
deal and before he started abroad to pursue
his studies as an arlst, he came to spend the
evening with me and take leave. recall
that we talked of everything that offered an
excuse for talking, until he rose to 60.
"Then he took me by the hand. He fall.
tered, turning red and then turning white. Ii
seemed he could not speak then, and he took
nervous turn about the room. AS he came
back 70 me there was steadier and more de-
tefmined look in his grave blue eyes. Again
he took my trembling hand in his strong
grasp and pronounced my name n
s.Yes, auntie.'

possible that Bollinger county has
a thousand qualified voters who dc
not take interest enough in educa
tlonal matters to vote for county
school commissioner? 1t must be
so, and if a thousand voters stay at
home when we have to elect COM
missioner it is safe to say that two
thousand stay at home when there
is none to elect.
In some of the districts when
there is only director to be elect
ed the Board meets witty possibly
one or two others and re-eiect the
out going member. Then if any of
the Board have relations who are
teachers they begin to pull for their
kinsmen, regardless of qualifca-
tions. lfnone of tn E Board has any
relations who are teachers, then
they proceed to let cut the school
to the lowest bidder. After max
ing the contract with the teacher
they seem to think that they have
discharged all their obligations and,
Notwithstanding the school law re-
quires them to visit their school
and advise and consult with the
teacher, they never show them
selves at the ischoolhouse, and know
nothing of the condition of the
school except by hearsay. There
are few exceptions to the above,
but | believe that everyone who
has had the opportunity to observe
the conditions will agree that they
are few indeed.
The writer has been to hear lec-
lures by such men as Professors
Vandiver, McGee, Henry and many |
others, and they always had small |
audiences, principally teachers, and |
those who have been teachers here
tofore. Is it any wonder that we
hear so much about poor schools?
If the people of Bollinger county
will take the interest in education |
That they ought to we can have as
successful schools right here at
home as the world can afford. Sup
pose that two or three districts try
he experiment and report the re-
'ult when their school closes next
winter. RAYMOND

NAVEL ORANGES.
Explanation of Their Origin That
Doesn't Quite Explain.

They wanted 10 know about navel oranges
in the store and the inquisitive man asked Of
the marketman the same question that the
! little boy asked his mamma In vaih the lit
tie boy awaited the maternal response. but
not so he of the inquisitiye mind for the
marketman revolved the quld of thought in
his brain; eyed chicken and turkey and Juicy
slices Of bee; lifted an orange and fondled I,
and said; Il can tell yoa all about it. Thet
come this way"
Now this is singular" said he, turning tc
where the odor of spices from the kitchen
should entce US into buying another pound
OF sausage that are always spoiled, for ou.
taste, by cooking, (not that we eat them raw
Oh, no, but they are of these things that we
are always tempted to buy, but never wish tc
eat). "a man came in here the other dav
and told me all about navel oranges. His
brother is California orange grower and ne
Is just home from there. 7 asked him and
got full information"
otis in this way" he continued. "Yov
see they import the seedless navel Grange
trees from Australia, They don't do we'll in
this country, so they cut down the California
orange trees when young aud engraft slips Of
the Australian tree into them and they eroN
up big and strong and perfect into the Juicy
apptause-compeling, mouth watering Cali
fornia navel"
THAT'S how the navel comes"
A silence fell and the inquisitive man said
"Once a n1gger asked the deacon about how
they made man in the creation and the dea-
con asked the dominic and the dominic said,
'Dey ives a brack man and er byacE woman
on de earf long fore dey was ever any livin',

brack woman and put her in de sacred spring
and leaned her up agin de fence ter dry and
