The people Of York County are on
the right line u secure good roads,
not only for their own county but for
every County in the Stste. At con-
vention recently held in Yorkville
resolutions were adopted recommend
ing legislative action in various par
ticulars looking to tho securing Of bet
ter highways. Among the resolutions
was one asking the legislature to have
the constitution so amended as to
allow townships or counties to tax
themselves to build good roads. A
bill to that effect was introduced at
the las. session but was voted down.
If every County will follow York 9
example the law makers can be forced
at the next session to adopt such q
law. IF the people desire to tax them
selves to build good roads they should
have the right to do 80.

To be cheerful when the world is
going well with you is no great virtue.
The thing is to be cheerful under dis
advantageous circumstances. If one
has lost money, il business prospects
fail, if enemies appear triumphant, if
there is sickness OF self OF those dear
20 one, then is it, indeed. q virtue to
be cheerful. When poverty pinohes
day after day, month after month or
through the years as they pass, and
one has ever to deny SELF OF every
litsle longed.for luxury, and the puzzle
Of how to make one dollar do the work
Of two has to be solved, then the man
who can still be cheerful is hero.
He 10 o greater hero than the soldier
who faces the cannon's mouth. Such
cheerfulness is the kind that we need
20 cultivate.

ness is not a thing to be encouraged in
aoy community. and as far as the law
and authority Of the State can be used
it should be prevented or punished.
But in the lynching dup there is
really little warrant for the nc.thern
kettle to call the southern pot black.
Each section has the same problem to
work out, and that is to increase re-
spect for the law and to minimize
every form Of spasmodic anarchy.

There will perhaps be the largest
gathering of farmers at Clemson next
week that has ever assembled in South
Carolina for the purpose of learning
improved methods of farming. I'm
told good has been accomplished by
previous State Farmers Institutes,
and greater things are looked for this
year. During the week the State
Agricultural and Mechanical Society,
the State Horticultural Society, the
South Carolina Live Stock Association
and the South Carolina Dairymen' 8
Association will meet.

The full measure Of prosperity that
the South is now enjoying and the
great industrial strides it is making,
is attracting the attention of the whole
country. The newspapers are com.
@eas:as Gu the increase OF immigra-
tion from the North, and they admit
that in the future this immigration
will be much larger, especially as
cheap lands will soon be gone in the
West. They say that the homeseeker
will be compelled to choose between
Canada and the South, IL he wants
cheap land, and many Of them will
prefer the South because Of its mild
climate, which enables two or three
different crops to be raised on the
same land in the same year.

The condition OF the corn crop on
July 1st according to the Government
report, is the poorest ever shown, and
there is smaller acreage than for five
years. While the crop of last year
was the largest on record. there is a
smaller reserve at the present time
tnan for years. Those who will have
to buy corn next fall and winter will
no doubt pay fancy price fer it.

The Democrats appear to be getting
busysall along the lipe. Those who
have been prominent, as, leaders have
reashed 8the interviewable stage, and
neWa with ideas Of who's who and
whes's what are writing for tho coun-
ty and provincial newspapers. This
is good sign. It shows that the
active factors in the party are not in
clined to pessimism. The trend Of all
they are saying is that there is Demo
cratic life in theoold land yet, aad if
the followers Of Jefferson will only
get together upon platform adjusted

Master Vaughn Davis recited a
very lengthy and beautiful story
of Southern female heroism, and
for one so young as he the manner
was most excellent, not once for
getting his lines. He is a hand

partaken of the soldierly bearing
of his foster father, Col. Field,
until he has a military bearing
that is remarkable.
Little Miss Kate Morris recited
the we'll known poem on the old
Confederate bill in a touching
manner. She is q talented little

The exercises were interspersed
with war songs, "Bonnie Blue

INSTITUTE AT UNION CITY

From all indications the Pea
body Institute at Union City prom
ises to be a record breaker.
A beautiful building, elegantly
furnished and faultlessly ventilated,
is an attraction in itself. -Four
large assembly halls, each capable
of accommodating one hundred stu
dents, and each hall being connect
ed with cosy recitation rooms,
constitute an ideal place for holding
a summer school for teachers.
superintendent Mynders has
spared neither pains nor cost in
providing the Peabody Institute
with splendid faculty of expert
enced teachers. The Institute
opens it's doors Monday, June 8,
and continues four weeks, with the
single interruption of one day dur
ing the second week. On this day,
which is set apart and to be known
as Educational Rally Day, Super
intendent Mynders invites all pub
lie school officers and all friends
and patrons of schools to attend.
Addresses by such men as Chan
cellor Kirkland, of Vanderbilt Uni
versitv, and the President of Tu-
lane University and others will be
delivered.
Teachers and students should
attend for the following reasons:
During the first week Prof. Herbert
Hutchinson, vocal instructor, will.
give a course of lessons from music
charts which will benfiet any teach
err in attendance. Miss Mai Tenn
pie will give instruction in manual
training for the first week only.
Miss Matte Butler will give in
struction in primary work during
the first week.
The regular faculty consists of
the following educators: A. E. Oar
rah, Conductor; ]. H. Boyer, Cum
berlaud City Academy; D. A. Will
liams, McFerrin College, Martin;
H. L. Riggs, Greenfield Graded
School; J. M. Moore, County Super
intendent.
Prof. Moore will instruct in civics
and school law.
Teachers who throw away this
opportunity are not worthy to be
on the States payroll. Truly,
teaching is a branch of the civil
service, and the State has right
to demand preparation on the part
of her servants.
