Sought to Make an Impression on =
Woman Who Tried to
Avoid Him.

The young man who occupied seat
on the bench in the corner drug store
seemed we'll satisfied with himself. He
had pulled his trouser legs we'll up to
preserve their careful crease and was dis
playing generous section of gaudy
stockings above his low-cut patent
leather shoes. His hat was pushed to
the back Of his head to give full effect
to parted bang that lOOped on each
side over his forehead. His turnover
collar pressed we'll against his chin and
was decorated in the center by dimin-
utive plaid bow. His cuffs were large and
glossy and he seemed conscious of every
one of these details and to approve OF
them perfectly, relates the Chicago
Daily News.
He had just lighted cigar at the
swinging gas Jet over the counter and
its smoke seemed to annoy the woman
who was also seated on the bench, walt
ing for her car. Perhaps it was the
smoke and perhaps it was the general
effect Of the young man.
A puff OF smoke fioated over to the
woman and she coughed-coughed loud
ly and pOintedly-but the serene COM
placence Of the youth was in no wise dis
turbed. He turned around little
stiffly. because Of the collar-and the In
dignant look that he received ought to
have been enough for him. 1t was not
however, and the woman rose and
walked to the other side Of the store.
At that moment the door opened and
a stout elderly woman with several
bundles and three children entered and
made for the bench. The young man
did not move at first, but one OF the chill
dren kicked against him with her
swinging feet and he shifted little, re-
adjusting his trousers. The action drew
the child's attention to the stockings
and she pointed to them. See, NAM
maj" she cried.
Yes" said the matron In loud. cheer
full tones. They're pretty, amt they!
Look at the little red flowers In 'em.
Amt they sweet Like sister Maggie's
fancy bag. amt they
The other children slid off their seats
to obtain a better view OF the gorgeous
hose The young man turned little red.
but continued to smoke. The woman
who had left the bench seemed pleased
and interested.
And see the pretty. shiny shoes"
continued the stout woman.
The children drew a little closer TO
the shoes and gazed at them In open
mouthed admiration.
1t was too much The young man rose
and ,evading the eye OF the grinning drug
clerk, left the store As for the woman
who had left the bench, she bought a
ialf-pound box Of chocolates and gave
them to the children.

Man In Need Of mpIOymen mt Refused
Job t. March with the Un-
employed.

A London preacher had an interest
ing experience not long ago with hun
CRY man The mendicant explained
that he had found it bs solutely impos-
sible to get work. He had applied ev-
erywhere, always to be turned away.
and at last nothing remained for him
but to beg from door to door for the
food that was necessary TO keep life in
his body.
The clergyman's heart was filed
with pity. The poor man seemed to be
honest, and after being furnished with
a good meal he was asked where a mes
sage would reach him. He gave an ad-
dress and went away.
Then the preacher sat down to think
the matter over. He knew OF no work
that he could find for the man, but he
decided 20 invent job.
Accordingly the next day the preach
er sent message to the Iuckless man.
saying:
Come at once. I have position
for you. We need a man to clean our
school house and keep it in order"
He received an immediate reply as
follows:
"Sorry I can't come. Ihaveto march
with the unemployed to-day Would
tomorrow do?

sible for the use or misuse of the
funds set apart for the purpose
above mentioned, therefore from
moral standpoint we cannot stay
away, as in that case we would be
in exactly tho same wrong as the
patron, that willfully keeps his
child away from the public schools
without a reasonable excuse
Again, it is our duty to use every
means within our reach to better
qualify and equip ourselves for the
noble and responsible work that
stands before us at the beginning
of every scholastic year; and by
attending these schools and having
access to the in terchange of ideas
that Is continually going on we are
enabled to grasp new ideas in re-
gard to how to teach, which is
vastly more important than to
find what to teach, as we can by a
review of the different text books
accomplish the latter at home.
Again, from Il professional stand,
point our attendance is absolutely
as a matter Of self defence, who of
us, if we were critically i'll, would
be willing to call physician, who
mover takes any medical journals
or attends the associations or other
meetings Of the profession, but is
content with the meagor stock Of
information he picked up at the
lectures and, which enabled him to
get his diploma? Or who of us
cares to listen to the minister, who
is unwilling to stock his library
with useful books, or is too lazy or
Indifferent to peruse them if al
ready there; yet many of us do the
same thing by Offering our services
to the public, when we have spent
neither time or money to prepare
ourselves to do better work than
we have done in the past it is Just
such dragging along that has drag
ged teaching down from its right
ful position as profession second
to none to mere occupation, q
channel through which bread and
butter may flow into our larders
or as ls the case with many, Just a
step-stone to some othor profess
ion, that they may consider more
honorable or perhaps more remu-
nerative. We are unable to un-
derstand how any one with their
eyes and heart upon some other
profession can discharge the duties
devolving upon them in the school
room in anything like the way it
should be done, as the greatest
teacher tho world has ever known
has taught us that we cannot serve
two masters at the same time.
In conclusion fellow teachers,
let me beg you to give this matter
your most sober thought, and make
up your minds, that happen what
may. that you Will attend the Sum
mer school and make it the banner
school of the State.
Yours in the work,

To The Teachers of Pickens County.


Vinland School, Apr. 25, 1904,
My Dear Co workers:
Permit me through the columns
of The Sentinel-Jonrnal to appeal
to you in regard to a matter that
should be OF the utmost Interest to
all of us. / refer to the Summer
school for teachers,
The State Superintendent of Ed
ucation has notified the Superin-
tendcnts Of the various counties,
that If there is not an indication of
a reasonably good attendance on
the Summer schools in their re-
spective counties, that there will
not be any held in the counties
whore such is the case.
Now, fellow teachers, in the
words o; Holy writ, Come let us
reason together. " We, as teach
ers, cannot afford to let this oppor-
tunity of bettering ourselves slip
away from us; but some will say
that it is only an outlay and not
a benefit and instead Of helping us
along it only takes a part of the
small pittance that, by close living,
has been saved out of our m meager
salaries, and instead of our attend,
ing, 1T being to our advantage es-
pecially from a financial stand
point it is sacrifice without hope
OF return. To any holding such
views, permit me to say in all can
dor, there never was greater
mistake.
The writer came to South Caro-
lima a few years ago a perfect
stranger in strange land, and
commenced teaching at $25.OO per
month and only about three months
to the term, but am now able to
get terms of reasonable length and
at figures more than double those
received at first; and he gives the
Summer school credit for the ad-
Vancement.
Whenever teacher attends
these schools he comes In contact
with men and women Of influence
and If he has the warp and woot
necessary to make a teacher and
shows that interest in the work,
that no time serving man or wO-
man can show it will be very visible
and those in charge will take pleas
ure in helping him in every way
they can to better places and bet
ter pay. We are free to admit,
that we attend these schools for
the benefit that we get from them
personalDEc6ut while this is the
direct outcome Of 1T, yet there is a
very grand result that is general e,
that is mutual help and benefit; for
school with only one pupil would
be a very dead affair, somewhat
like some of our rainy day sessions
In the rural districts, (although we
cannot complain about that, as the
patrons at Vinoland bring and
come after their children, thereby
giving us good attendance in
spite of the weather,) but we ali
know how hard it is to keep up any
interest at such times and under
such circumstances so it is with
the Summer school, if the attend
ance IS poor the interest lags and
the benefits are diminished; if Oh
athe other hand the attendance is
Bsood the interest steadily increases
from the very start and the bene-
fits are great and legion.
Again these schools are sustain
d at heavy cost and this ex-
ponso is met by the State, that
yory teacher may be benefited,
hut how can we receive any bene.
I unless we are present?
Honce, every teacher is respon-
