Mississippi and has a complaint. He
says the principal part of the cotton
crop in the state is nearly ruined. The
rain has beaten the cotton on the ground
and it has been stained. Cotton that
would ordinarily bring 10 cents per
pound will not bring but q cents now
and as a consequence the merchants
are doing nothing. Before he finished
his lament though he admitted that his
trade had increased in other sections
and would probably show an increase
on the whole.
Mr.. McElroy is a good salesman and
quite popular with the trade.

Educational Column
TWO THINGS.

lst. No teacher should enter the
school room with the idea that he or
she is the only pebble on the education
al beach. You have predecessor and
will have a successor. Professional
courtesy. demands that you speak well
Of your Nedecessor. He made mistakes
but all ofss are guilty of that charge.
Methods of notwo teachers are alike
and yet both can be and in most in
stances are right. Your ways are your
own, and tho some pupils insist that
Mr.. So and so did not do that way.
little clever diplomacy can be brought
to bear without either giving otfense
or losing your own individuality. The
right sort of teacher is the only true
diplomat Of the great common people.
That old, old saying. Talent is some
thing but tact is everything" is true to
a dot in the teacher Fife and both can
be used proftably.
End. Az to your successor much can
be done that will make his work much
more pleasant than otherwise. One
way is n properly arranged Teachers
Register. Tho they are not filed out
TO the extent they should be, neither
are they used as a guide as much as
should be; no one can deny that they are
very practical, helpful guides.
Again at the end Of the first
week Of school your successor can
write YOUR biography as disciplinsrian.
The way lessons are prepared viii re-
veal your thoroughness or lack Of Il.
The forms Of written work will portray
your neatness and ordcrliness. These
are little things, but they are the In
dexes to your character and that which
you have endeavored to shape your
pupils into. They are worth remem-
bering, worth needing.
