Nniicn 10 Teachers.

To the Teachers of Clarendon County:
have been directed by the State Super
intcndent Of Education to say to all teach
ers IN Clarendon county that the State
Board of Elucaton has made it obligatory
upon all teachers to attend the County In
stitute or Summer School; aasl nnless they
do attend their certificates cannot be re-
newed unless they can give some satlSfac-
tory excuse to the State Superintendent
of Eiucation for attendance. So It
will be seen that this power OF renewing
teachers certificates, rs heretofore vested
in the County Board of Education, has
been taken away.
Tie County Institute will convene IL
Manning on August l7th promptly at >
O'Clock We hope that full attendance
of teachers will meet us on the first day Of
the session.

No Rocking Lullaby.

Strange as it may seem, timc-hon-
ored custom Of rocking babies to sleep
is bad one. It's injurious to the
children themselves, and is cause,
eventually, of much unnecessary trou-
bic to their guardians. Mothers
should therefore sec to it that from
the very first the little ones are
brought up in the way they should 60,
and that the monthly nurse does not
get them into bad habits by rocking
them to sleep either in her arms or In
their cots. There is no doubt that
rockingis the most expeditions way
of inducing a baby to go to sleep, but
if one once starts, baby will not
sleep without it, and at later age is
likely to suffer from insomnia. Rock
ing may save immediate trouble to a
lazy nurse or mother by inducing sleep
when child does not require it, or
when it ought to be taken up from it's
cot and have clean clothes put on, but
it will never cause that sweet, gentle
and perfect sleep which should be
characteristic of a baby who has no
artificial aids to induce slumber.

Slang.

Ii is unfortunate that lang phrases
are so easily slipped into our every
day conversation, and taking appa.
rently so fixci, !. place in our talk
And the worst Of it is that 50 mauy
people arc using slang, entirely un.
conscious of the fact that they arc
doing so. II the common usage OF
slang were confined to a particular
order Of girls, it would, perhaps, serve
as an Indicator Of character, and pass
untouched. It would, at least, not
touch the sensibilities Of gentlefolk.
But it is not so confined. Slang is
invading the very incest Of circles; it
is beginning to influence the talk Of
our most carefully reared girls. And
this is why the habit should receive
closer attention. Girls are forgetting
that slang phrases and refinement are
absolutely foreign to each other. y
slang phrase may be more expressive
than term Of polite usage, but 1T Is
never impressive, except to impress
unfavorably. 1t is high time that
our girls should realize that they
should speak the English language in
their conversation, and not the dialect
of the race track, nor the lingo OF the
baseball field \ girl may cause a
smile BY the apt use of some slang
phrase. But, inwardly, those who
applaud her place her, at the same
time, in their estimation. No girl
ever won an ounce of respect by being
slangy. On the contrary, many a
girl, unconscious Of the cause, has
found herself gradually slipping out
Of peoples respect by the fact that
her talk was dotted with slang phrases.

He Should Have a Medal.

Brazil, IND, Nov. 26.-The courage
and presence of mind of t4.year-old
Frank Williams prevented a disastrous
wreck on the Vanadalia railroad to-
day. Williams was coming from
Knightsyille to this city when he
noticed broken rail which had been
pressed out Of position by q freight
train some hours before. The lad
heard the west bound passenger and
mail train whistle for the Knightsville
station. Knowing that the train did
not stop there, the boy ran up the
track and when he sighted the train
stood between the rails and waved his
hand.
The ingineer, seeing the boy would
not leave the track, reversed the lever
and applied the air brake, stopping the
train within few feet of the broken
rail. The engineer said he was run
ming so miles an hour when he saw the
boy, and had his engine struck the
broken rail at such great speed a fear

Jack Rabbit Was in His Way.

A Chicago man who has just return

AS everybody knows, jack rabbit
is lightning runner, or, as Mark
Twain once said, "goes SO fast that all
you see is crack in the air.
It seems that certain fat man, well
known in Idaho, was out bear hunting
with party WHO had been joking him
as to what he would do if bear took
after him, and he always claimed that
he would not run away. On this day
he was poking along in advance of a
Withholding trail, when he suDddcnly y
ran into real bear The hunters in
the rear heard shout and a yell. and
in moment the fat man came dashing
down the trail minus his gun, with u

say, that he seemed to be afraid the

Mutually Agreeable.

On one of the recent warm days, a
sourvifaged, middleaged, fussy woman
got on one of the smoking seats on an
open car in the subway, says the
Boston Transcript. Next to her sat a
man who was smoking cigar. More
than that the woman shifting, made
out that the man had been eating
onions. Still more than that, she
had the strongest kind of suspicion
that he had been drinking beer. The
woman fused and wriggled and grew
angrier, and looked at the man scorn-
fully. Presently she could endure it
no longer. She looked squarely at
him and said:
"If you were my husband, sir, I'd
give you dose of pcison!'
The man looked at her. 'If | were
