A Chance for a Young Man

both Il college education and Il
thorough training in Normal
methods? Deficiency in eith"r
would justify Il teacher in spending
a year pursuing the special teachers
course offered by the South Caro-

Legislature has for this purpose pro-
yidcd from each county a scholar
ship renting all fees and paying
$40 toward living expenses. Allow
ing for board at IS or $40 a month
for nine months, and laundry, books,
and railroad fare, the scholarship
student would have to raise hardly
more than $50 in order to avail him
self of the great benefits of a Years
professional study in the splendid
Normal Department of the South
Carolina College.
The applicant must be 10 years of
age, or within a few months of that
age. 1t is preferred that he should
have already had some experience as
q teacher, and, other things being
practically equal, the teacher. appli
cant will be-selected in preference to
competitors who have never taught.
However, any Young man desiring
the scholarship in order to take the
course with d view to becoming a
teacher should apply, as he stands a
a chance of winning, wen though he
may never have taught yet. Write
to Professor Patterson WardlaH OF
President Benjamin Sloan, Column
bia, S. G.
The scholarship is good for one
year, with a chance of renewal.
There has been provided u special
course of study, different from the
regular college classes, arranged
with special reference to the needs
of the public schools, and particu-
Iarly the country schools. 1t is
practically an extension of the Sum-
mer School courses-a nine months
normal school for men teachers,
similar to what the Winthrop Train.
ing School in Columbia used to be
for women teachers. 1t is the be-
ginning of a new r in South Caro-

teachers as well as women teachers
shall have professional training.
The young mel taking this course
will soon 60 to the front in school

over elementary studies and grounds
him thoroughly in the matter along

ability, especially when he has had
experience trying to teach. There
