CONVERSE SUMMER SCHOOL
State Superintendent Announces
the Date and Rates for Board,

The State superintendent of educa-
tion, Mr.. McMahan, has made public tho
following inJormation in regard to the
State summer school for teachers:
The summer school will be held this
year at Converse college. This does OF
indicate any lack Of appreciation of tho
admir- able advantages Winthrop college
has afforded. After much correspon.
dcnce and many personal interviews
with schoolmen and teachers, we have
decided, for this year at least, to give to
the people of another section of the State
the advantage of having the school in
their midst.
Spartanburg presents many attraC-
tions. 1t is not only a city of push and
progress, but an educational center with
a distin ctively literary atmosphere. 1t
lies at the foot Of the mountains and it's
climate will be cool and bracing, especi-
ally inviting TO the teachers coming from
The lower part of the State. AS it is on
the direct path, those who wish to spend
few weeks in the mountains, after the
close of the summer school, will be able
TO DO so with minimum of faiIfoad
travel.
The school will open on juno Goth.
| The State Teachers Association will
| hold it's sessions at Converse college on
the 18th and 10Th, Immediately preced-
| ing the opening Of the school.
Three hundred teachers can be &C.
commodated in Converse college. The
charge will be $14 for the thirty days,
including the session Of tho Teachers
Association. President Wilson and ma.
tron' Mrs. Thompson, are enthusiastic
over the prospect Of entertaining the
state summer school, and pledge the
reputation Of Converse college for being
,isI CLASS in everything, that the
table accommodations shall be ali that
noula DC reasonably desired. A limited
! iua,llper OF men may obtain board and
, t,UUoglng IN the Wofford dormitories at
the cost of SO or Sl0.
, me attendance on the State summer
. sT,l. sEhool mas thus far averaged about $50.
ms year 1t should be 400, and during
inc TWO days Of tho Teachers Associa.
} tl0n' Immediately preceding the state
schooi' TIC attendance should be at leaat
five hundred. w ~ io""'
Two years ago the summer school waa
an experiment. Its success was douhted
by many. Utter failure was predicted
even by some who were reioiced to f1nd
thelr predictions unfulilled and tho
school a remarkable success. Now with
hundreds of teachers over the State hav.
ing experienced the advantages and the
pleasures 1T affords, tho school can be
sald to DO firmly established. The dif-
hculty will bo to accommodate tho
crowd.

Melvin rushed into the house, leuv-
ing Turner outside to put away the
horse and ponder all alone the Ques-
tions that. though they did not affect
him In the least. interested him deeply.
And as Turner pondered an idea came
10 him. for lie lacked great deal OF be-
ing as much of Il fool as he seemed.
He stopped on his way to the stable
with the horse and, nodding his head
knowingly, muttcrcd to himself these
words:

AS Sim Banks walked home that
night he felt greatly clntcd, and i'm his
soul there was kind OF feeling. closely
akin to intoXicution. He stood erect.
with hearing proud and dlsdainrul,
held his head well up and walked with
II step firm and confident.
In knocking Jim Thorn down the
way he did lie had demonstrated to his
neighbors that he was not 50 much Il
| coward rs they had supposed. That
| within itself was Il greal deal to be
proud of, for he felt that in removing
| the stain OF cowardice from his name
| he had raised an almost insupportable
| burden from his soul. But that was
not all nor yet the chief Cruse Of his
| elatiOn.
Louisa would learn what lie had
done, and she would know that he had
done it for her sake. lie would not
tell her, but others would. His knowl-
edge Of human nature was limited, but
;t t,ll hi,,, Int
his praises sung by others would be far
more effective than If sung by himself.
That she would be pleased he felt as
Sured, for she would understand how
we'll he loved her and how more ready
he vas than any one else on earth to
stand up in hcr defense. Then too she
would realize that he was not the con-
\ tcmptiblc coward she had Thought him
and because of which she had spoken
y OF him and TO him III such harsh terms.
II Perhaps she would even speak words
| OF praise for his conduct, and perhaps -
l. oh, happy thOught,-Shc might put her
II arms about his neck and kiss him. That
II would be Il reward indeed. and for such
n reward he would hc willing to fight
the whole world.
OF our most precious hopes are born
J. only to perish with their first breath OF
p life!
When Sim reached home, he founl
~ the house dark and Louisa in bed. III,
~ went in and struck y light and pre-
~ pared to retire. Ills wife was asleep
w and he moved about nOiSclrSSly so a
not to wake her.
