A TRIP THROUGH THE ORIENT.

A TRIP THROUGH THE ORIENT.
A Trip Through the Orient will be
presented Monday night, January 29th,
at the First Baptist church by Mr.
and Mrs A. Icyda OF Japan This is
splendidly illustrated lecture de
picting the customs of the people of
the Far East and will prove an in
teresting and instructive hour to all
who attend. Mr.. and Mrs Icyda ap-
peared at the Baptist Church before a
crowded house one year ago and all
who saw them were delighted. At that
time the Russo-Japanese war was in
progress, though the great decisive
battles had not been fought. How
ever these charming lecturers pre-
sented moving picture views of the
battles which had been fought and
gave their hearers a clearer insight
into the great struggle. On Monday
night they will present pictures Of the
great battles and this one feature
alone will be worth far more than the
admission price. This lecture is not
ordinary, but wonderful 1t shows
missionary work in the Far East. All
the lecturers appear in native cos
tunes, and Japanese songs and music
WIZ be a feature.

If Texas plants "everything"
in cotton, or anything like
"everything," and the seasons
prove propitious, there is no tell
ing how low down the scale the
price of the staple will run next
fall. 1t might be we'll for the
formers of this country to pre-
pare for such a disastrous con
tingency by adopting the plan of
diversification no strongly urged

There is no county in the state
that the people of Lancaster
would turn to more quickly for
justice than old York. 1t Will be
recalled that years ago York re-
posed a similar confidence in
Lancaster-in a case, too, in
which human life was at
stake.
No, Lancaster has no appre-
hension whatever as to is inabil.
ity to get a fair trial in York, but
what it objects to is the transfer
of the Morrison case at all, to
any county. 1t believes that its
own citizenship is fully capable
of rising above any possible pre-
judice incident to or growing out
of that unfortunate lynching and
of doing exact justice 10 the
claimants in this suit. L. is salts
fed, in other words, that a fair
and impartial trial could be had

pected, when Judge Gage based

of plaintiffs for the removal of

they promptly decided to carry
the question before the Supreme
Court of the State.

THE PUBLIC SCHOOLS---HOW TO
ENCOURAGE INTEREST IN THEM.

The Greenyille News, ia order
TO stimulate greater interest in
the school work of that city, has
proffered it's columns for the pub.
lication OF articles written by the
teachers of the Greenville schools
"on matters pertaining to school
and home" To be discussed are
such topics as The Pupil'ss Home
Work, Playground and Street
Regulations, The Midday Lunch,
Visiting and Visitors, Room
Adornment, Duties and Respon-
sibilities of Principal, School
Rules, The Rainy Day at School
Care of School Property, School
Entertainments, Their Use and
Abuse, etc.
Being most favorably impress
ed with the idea of the Greenville
News along this line, we have
concluded 10 tender the use OF
the columns Of this newspaper
TO the teachers Of Lancaster for
similar purpoSe-not only to
the teachers OF the town but TO
those of the county as we'll.
AS our esteemed Greenville
contemporary remarks, taken al
together the educationalinterests
OF community care OF greater
magnitude and touch more peo
pie more closely than any other
one interest,"" We believe that
the publication of a series Of ar
tlcles on the subjects suggested,
or on kindred subjects, will great
ly advance the cause of feducation
In Lancaster, both town and
county, and we therefore appeal
to the teachers to furnish us with
the " copy" OF course contri-
buttons from patrons and others
interested in educational work
will also be given space. Let
the good work begin at once.
