HOW TO GET SCHOOL BOOKS.

Our County Supt OF Education,
Mr.. ID. b FAINT, has kindly furnished
us with the following list Of prices ou
the school books adopted by the Stat"
Board, also the price of the books,
and the price you can get them f..
provided you have book to exchange
for a new one, u first reader for firs:
reader, fourth for fourth, and so
on through the list, no matter how
old your book is or who is it's author
This is one of the biggest things ii
the way of helping the school chill
dren to secure books and saving hun
dreds Of dollars to the parents Of this
county that ever happened Icsten'
OF shipping the old books back as h,
got them in Mr. FAINT has held them
on hand and by doing so has been
able to snve the children many dol
lars again by having an opportunity
Of getting a second hand book at
sometimes less than half the price
ard sometimes for nothing. Mr..
FAINT has, we honestly believe, by
this method saved to the pockets Of
the PATRONS Of the schools enough in
the purchase OF books to pay his sal
ary He is the best friend to the
school children and the parents the
county has ever had. Besides doing
all this he has almost got the schools
on cash basis, he is untiring in his.

South Carolina deserves much
credit for the advanced measures sl
ready adopted in behalf Of her mill
operatives. We clip the following
from the Atlanta Daily News. which
says something Of the work along
this line thnt is being done by the
mill owners in South Carolina:
"The September Forum contains IN
interesting article on the Palzar mills
in Anderson countyS S G. where B, 600
operatives are employed. The author
OF the article, Mrs. Leonora Beck
Ellis, OF this city, calls PeIzer model
factory town and gives many interest
ing particulars. The community has
5000 inhabitans but is n proprietary
town controlled by the Pelzer com
pany. 1t has a system OF grad d
schools with an attendance Of 800
children, who are taught free of cost.
The company furnishes lyceum,
with library Of 5000 volumes, be-
sides free lectures on history, travel
and popular science and occasional
concerts. There are wheelmen's and
other athletic clubs and other things
for the comfort and enjoyment of the
people They have neat cottages III a
are encouraged to plant flowers by on
offer OF prizes for the best display.
The leading store, with capital Of
$25 900, is largely owned by operatives
and they have 100000 on deposit in

There seems to be some fear in
certain quarters that President Theo-
dore Roosevelt is bitter toward the
South, and will have it in for us.
But Judging from the glowing tribute
OF honor and respect he pays to Gen.
Rnbt. f. Lee in his book "The Life
OF Thomas Fl. Benton" should re-
move any doubt Of his respect and
kindly feeling fer the South, then too
he is about thrce-fourths OF a South
ern mnn himself, ard while not born
in Atlanta, his nearest kin were
Georgians, and he has many relatives
in Georgia and South Carolina. We
trust he will prove himself worthy
the high station he has attained.

1t seems very probable that there
is to be bitter and possibly sea nda-
lous controversy between the physi-
clans who attended President McKin-
ley. DR.. McBurney is charged with
being over confident OF McKinley's
recovery and misled the physicians
and the public as to his true condi-
tion, he is charged with being optimis-
tic from the time he appeared in the
case. There may be some intere t.
ing developments. One doctor says
he discovered gangrene in the sur
face Of the wound Of the second bui-
let, and cut it Off. Another doctor
says there was no gangrene found at
any time. 1t has developed ut the
autopsy that there was not ut any
time the slightest chance of McKin-
ley's recovery. Gangrene was found
at the autopsy. Some say poisoned
bullet others say not so. The pulse
of an average man is 72, McKinley's
never fell below 100, and averaged
100. There were possibly too macy
doctors.

A strong movement is on foot
started by the Atlanta Journal, to
have Senator Wellington, of Mary
land, expelled from the Senate, for
his unpatriotic expressions regarding
the shooting Of the President. When
asked for an expression he said that
he and the President were enemies,
that he could not say anything against
him. That he WAS not concern Il
about the matter. Leading papers
North and South are calling for his
expulsion.

The last words Of VIM. Mckinley
spoken to his wife showed with what
strength he was holding on to his
christian faith, and they will be re-
mHmbered as long as the name of
Mckinley is spoken. They were.
good bye, good bye, it is Gods will
Let His will not ours be done" In
passing away he whispered, "Nearer
my God to Thee" " Can any one doubt
that God himself is the strength be-
hind faith that supports a man like
this?

the era Of good feeling in Monroe s
term, three quarters OF a century ago,
has any President been more popular
personally with all the people than
Mr.. Mckinley. Even those opposed
to the Presidents politics could not
help loving the man. 1t is due his
memory that we so act that ANARCHY
may be blotted from our land, ard
that his death may not have been in
vain
