says the Newherry Voice of the

Carolina appreciate the value of

exceedingly gratifying. No doubt
a great deal of self-denial has been
practiced in order that some of
those children might secure an ed,

good cause and we have no idea
that those parents who have prac-

done so. We hope that this lively
