reason pop corns pops is because the

heat, causing a fracture along the

fractured quarters turn back to meet
below the embryo. 1t is likely this is
the reason. but we always thought
that the reason was because the corn

Letter to NJ. J. Black, Bambers, S. c.

Dear Sir: But few of the men who sell
the hundred different paints in the mar
ket know much about them. All Devoe
agents have State chemists certificate
telling Just what it's made Of; they know
good deal, not only about Devoe but the
rest; we see that they do. We buy every
paint, that has any sale, and analyze it.
Our agent finds out all about it.
When we know what paint is made Of
we know how it will act; we know how
far it goes and how long it wears.
Devoe is the standard call it 100. The
best of the rest is about Is; the worst
about Is; the rest are between.
But the men, who sell them, don't know
any better. They know what the maker
tells them. That is: they know that he
tells them. They don't know whether he
tells them the truth or not.
The business is not conducted on knowl.
edge the less they know, the more com
Portable they are. Yours truly,

Reception for Graded School Teachers.

On Friday evening September %, 1904,
there will be held in the graded school
auditorium reception for the teachers Of
the Bamberg graded school, from 8 to 10
p. m. We desire the teachers to meet and
know the parents whose children they are

occasion to bring teachers and parents
together. We hope that there shall be

all tn. parents who are interested in the
progress Of the graded school. There are
coming amongst Us teachers who are
strsngers, and we should do all in our
power to make them feel at home.
This year We desire more than ever to-
conduct our school on the plan of parent
al cooperation. We desire that teachers
and parents work together for the good
Of the children. To this end it is very
essential that parents and teachers should
know one another. Let all mothers and
fathers who desire the welfare Of their
children be present to make the teachers
feel that they have the good wishes and
the kindly feelings of the patrons Of our
school. n. N. SALLEY. =

Graded School Opening Exercises.

Next Monday, September 10th, the
Bamberg graded school will open. Open.
ing exercises will be held in the audito-s
rum. The public are invited. Let every
parent, whose children are at school, be-
present at the dedication Of the new
school building. There will be several
speeches made by representative men. We
would like to see present all mothers and
fathers in this school district. Come, alls
who are interested in the progress Of their
children. Let us make September 18TH,
1904, the beginning of new era In the
history of education in our county. Ger
tainly everybody can spare at least an
hour and half from their business affairs;
in order to start the graded school on 8.
new era of prosperity. The presence of
parents will encourage the teachers and:
stimulate the children. Opening exere
cises will begin at eleven o'clock Monday
morning and continue until twelve-thirty.
Parents are asked to require their chill
dren to look up their old school books
used last year and bring them with them
on Monday. IS
Pupils are expected to be at the graded
school building promptly at nine o'clock
Monday morning, in order that the class
es may be arranged, lists of books needed
given to children, and the school gotten.
into working shape. Parents will please
remember this, and have their children on
hand promptly at nine o'clock.
We desire to have this time the biggest
first days enrolment in the history Of the
graded school. We want this years work:
to be the most useful and progressive on
part of teachers and students. If we.
are sure that we have back Of US the in
terest and goodwill Of the parents, we can
work with great deal more enthusiasm
and energy
In order that everything may start Oh
smoothly we ask that the patrons require
all their children to be present on the
first day of school. THERE'S nothing like
taking hold at the beginning. A child is
put at a great disadvantage if he is kept
out of school two or three weeks at the
beginning Of school.
Last year some of the citizens of the
18th school district did not send to the
graded school. This year We hope that
there will not be q single parent in this
district who will not take advantage
of the educational opportunities offered
by our new graded school.

Col. Bill Sapp, of Missouri, looks like a
typical clergyman and is frequently taken
for a gentleman Of the cloth. He stopped
for dinner recently at farm house and his
host had no doubt that he was preacher
so when they sat down to dinner the
farmer asked him to say grace. The
colonel put his hand to his ear and said
Excuse me, friend, but I'm so damned
deaf to-day that I can hardly hear. Speak
louder" The farmers wife hurriedly
put in: "He wants to know if you take
