The Library.

The little notice in the papers sew
eral issues ago had the effect OF
briuging some new subscribers to the
library and also some visitors. But
the librarian wants many more. For
two wears the library has had no help
from the town, the assistance formerly
given having been withdrawn during
the administration Of then Mayor
Blease.
Hon. George S. Mower has, since the
beginning Of the work, given the use
Of a room. Without this help, its
demise would have been sure. The
Woman's club makes an annual con-
tribution for the purchase of books,
and the only other means IS from the
subscribers. To those who have never
ioined a most cordial invitation is eX-
tended to visit the room on Monday al
ternoons from $50 until sundoWn.
The librarian makes this plea to
every reader Of this article; please,
as soon as you lay the paper aside,
look carefully over all your books,
and any good ones that you have read
but do not care to keep, bring them TO
the library. Many others will not
have read them, perhaps. If the chill
dren in your home have outgrown
their books, let the library have them
for other children less fortunate.
During the past week there were
calls for any of Sweedenborg's writ
ings, Leckie's History, and any OF
Channing;s writings, or Hamilton's.
None of these calls could be respond
ed to. Leave the books at the Mower
company's store, with your name, and
the librarian will appreciate the con-
tribution, and acknowledge it. Or ring
9O52 and the librarian will call for the
books.

Church of the Redeemer.

(Rev. Edw. Fulen wider, Pastor).
Nothing prevaH;i1s, there will Ee
the regular services ~ the Lutheran
Church of the Redeemer next Sunday.
The following is the program:
II a. m.-The morning service. The
pastor will preach On the subject:
"What is l[an?" The text is found in
Psalm S:4: What is man, that thou
art mindful of him? and the son of
man, that thou visiteth him?' In this
world we are all On examination, and
this question Of the Psalmist is one
that we must answer. We can not
write down the answer Oh paper, but
each one gives it in the choice he
makes of a ruling ambition. At least
six answers that the past gives will be
presented in the sermon. They are
all exceedingly practical and should
be considered by every enc who de-
sires to be and do something in life.
This sermon will be Introductory to
three practical sermons on the gen.
eral Subject, "A Mans Way
D. m.-The Sunday school meets
to study Gods word. All the teachers
and scholars are requested to be pres
ent. DR.. Thomas and his orchestra
will lead the singing.

vices is extended the public.

New Passenger Engines

Laurens Advertiser.
The Columbia, NeWberry and Laur-
ems railroad has just bought two hand
some passenger engines, but they are
using them for freight service. Now,
wouldn't it be nice if one of these en-
gines were attached to three nice, new
passenger coaches for Capt. Mccain
and Capt Little to ride in every morn
ing and evening! That would be fine
and then we might pull out our "pass"
(due respects to the Newberry Obser-
ver) and 90 down to Columbia feeling
like we were riding in some style.
Really now, we ought to have a nice
and new train. Nice depots have been
built and a great deal of good work
has been done and is being done on
the roadbed, but if little bit more
were undertaken and we had that fine
train, we might be satisfied for awhile
At least, until We begin to want some
thing else.

TEACHERS ASSOCIATION.
To be Held Saturday in High School
Building-Miss Leila 4. Russell
OF Winthrop, to Talk.

The County Teachers association
will meet in the hi n school building
at Newberry On Saturday, January 20,
at II o'clock promptly.
Miss Leila Russell, of Rock Hill,
who is superintendent Of the rural
schools OF York county, and also con-
nectcd with Winthrop college, has ac-
cepted an invitation from the asso-
citation to be present and speak to the
teachers. Miss Russell Is ar eXper-
fenced teacher and will bring mes
sage which will be worth while for
the teachers and trustees and public
generally to hear, and the county sup
erintendent of education very much
hopes that the auditorium will be I'LL
ed and that every teacher who can
possibly attend will be present.
He has sent a personal letter to
each teacher requesting him or her
to attend this meeting and has also
sent a special personal appeal to the
trustees to meet with the teachers.
There are many matters affecting
the schools of the county which would
receive benefit if the trustees could be
interested enough to come and discuss
the various needs of the schools. The
leeisl2 ture is now in session and there
will be some matters concerning the
nnblic schools upon which legislation
has been asked. The trustees shoulo
be in position to give expression 10
what would be best for our schools IN
this county.
Elsewhere is a copy of the letter
sent TO the trustees. If any failed to
receive this letter he should take this
as a special invitation to attend the
meeting on Saturday. Elsewhere IN
this PAPER also may be found copy
of the letter sent to the teachers Ae
ouesting them to attend the teachers
association and to take an interest IN
it.
The gathering Of the teachers and
trustees to exchange ideas and dis
cuss methods can not but be helpful
and beneficial The weather is oao
and the roads in the country in fear
full condition, but the county superln-
tendent especially requests the teach
ers and trustees to make some sacrl-
fee to be present.
Any of the citizens of the city VINO
feel an interest in this work will also
be welcome to the meeting.

A Memory.
(Contributed.)

To those who, like the writer, have
found themselves alone at times dur
ing the past week, shut in, as it were,
by the snow, with only their thoughts
for company, and more especially at
the twilight hour, how fast came troop
ing back over the bridged years the
memories of other times, long ago
when the snow lay over everything
and in the stiffness all around, how
vibrant the echo from dear voices
hushed so long. Then, they looked on
scenes like these and voiced their en-
joyment. The charm of it all appealed
to them also; and in like manner die
their sympathies go out to any sui
ferer
Under the spell so potent how greaj
the longing for those vanished forms
the never forgotten voice and face
which some day shall gladden. uS
again.
Under the snow with the flowers
they sleep-like the flowers they shall
reappear in the glad Springtime O.
our hope.

DR.. Whaling Next Sunday.

Rev. Thornton Whaling, D. D., who
was to have preached in Aveleigh
PRESBYTERIAN church last Sunday, was
prevented On account Of the heavy
snow and extremely cold weather.
However,, we are pleased to announce
that DR.. Whaling will fill the pulpit
next Sunday, January 21, having writ
ten to DR.. Pelham, clerk of session,
that he will be here Saturday. This
announcement, We are sure, Will be
an interesting item to the community
as we'll to the Presbyterian congrega-
ton, as DR.. Whaling's reputation as a
forceful and eloquent divine has gone
before him and he will be heartily
welcomed to Newberry. DR.. Whaling
is now the president of Columbia The
illogical seminary but has been the
pastor of several important churches
throughout the South.
The communion of the Lords sup
per will be observed and the public
is cordially invited. +.

Two Large POrkerS.

Mr.. W. @. Hipp, of Pomarla, killed
two porkers a few days ago of his
own raising, thirteen months old, one
weighing $50 pounds and the other
600 pounds. And yet there are far
mers in this county who hold that it
is better to grow cotton and buy meat
than to raise their own meat. At
least, that is the only legitimate con-
clusion from their actions.

TEACHERS EXPECTED.
To Attend Meeting County Association
Circular Letter Sent
to All Teachers.

The following has been mailed Dy
the county superintendent of educa-
ton to each teacher in the county,
calling attention to the fact that T1ss
Leila A. Russell will speak to the as
sociation on Saturday, and as she is
coming all the way from Rock Hill,
the county superintendent very much
hopes that each teacher will show
sufficient interest in his or her work
to come out and hear Miss Russell
discuss matters pertaining to the work
in the rural schools:
The Letter.
I desire to call attention to the
County Teachers association which
is to be held in the high school build
ing at Newberry on January 20.
Miss Leila Russell, of Winthrop COL
lege, has promised to attend this
meeting and will talk to the teachers
and others about the rural schools
and their needs, and I hope that ev-
cry teacher in the public schools will
feel it as much a part Of his Or her
duty to attend the county teachers
meetings as it is to teach in the school.
1t should be your purpose to get all
the information that it is possible that
will be helpful to you in your work,
and the teacher who is doing the right
kind of work in the school is not do
ing that work alone for the salary
which is paid, but for the help that
comes to the teacher as we'll.
A professor in Harvard college on
one occasion said: "Harvard college
pays me for doing what T would glad
ly pay it for allowing me to do
Of course, you could not afford to
pay for the privilege Of teaching, be-
cause you need the salary, and pos
sibly more than the salary with which
to live, but you also need the work,
especially, if you are an enthusiastic
and conscientious teacher, as I hope
you are.
Some one has said that the work
of the ploddsr, artisan, can be easily
measured and Justly rewarded in dol
lars and cents. It is not so with the
work of the artist. Most of his income
never gets into his pay envelope. He
must get much of it in the delight of
the dream and the vision, in the joy
of the doing and the realizing" :.
"The ideal teacher will work for the
joy of the working; the mere time SER
yer for his pay alone; but you and /
will enjoy our work for our pay and
our pay better for the work.
It would be a great misfortune to
the children of any school to have for
their teacher one who was considering
only the pay and looking only to the
pay certificate. I hope that all the
teachers in this county are Interested,
not only in the pay, but the work, in
which they are engaged.
Be sure to attend the meeting of
the association.
Yours very truly,
E. H. Aull,

TRUSTEES EXPECTED.
County superintendent of Education
Urges Trustees to Meet With
Teachers on Saturday.

In an effort to arouse more interest
on the part Of the trustees Of the
schools of this county, the county
superintendent Of education has sent
a special letter requesting each trus-
tee to meet on Saturday in the high
school building in connection with the
county teachers association, and the
meeting will be held promptly at II
o'clock. It is hoped that as many
trustees as possible will attend the
meeting. The county superintendent
Of education has received word by
letter and otherwise from several
trustees who have promised 10 be
present and he very much hopes that
every one will make an effort to at
tend the meeting.
The following is the letter sent the
trustees. It is possible it did not
reach some Of them and if any trus-
tee failed to receive the letter, he
should not remain away on that ac-
count.
Letter to Trustees.
Your name appears on the list OF
trustees handed me by Mr.. Wheeler, as
+.,,.4o =, cohool r. 90
my purpose, if possible, to secure the
cooperation of the trustees in int.
proving the rural schools. I nope
that may be able to have your CO.
operation, and would be 2';:G to have
any suggestion as to the needs of your
school, or any other matter that will
help to promote the educational inter-
ests of the children in the country. An
active, enthusiastic, and interested
trustee helps to make an active, en-
thusiastic, and interested teacher and
patron. Your acceptance of the posi-
ton of trustee is evidence that it is
your purpose to do what you can to
promote the educational interests OF
your community. If this is not your
purpose, and you are not carrying out
that purpose, then you should not hold
the position.
am very anxious to have the trus-
tees meet together, so that we may
talk over educational conditions in
the county and find out what is best
to be done to create more interest in
our country schools. I think it would
be a good plan for. the trustees to at
tend the Teachers Associations, and
I especially insist that you come. to
the meeting in the high school build
ing at Newberry, at II o'clock, on
January 20. Miss Leila Russell, of
Winthrop college, who is davoting all
of her time to rural school improve
ment, has kindly consented to meet
with us at that time, and I am sure
that she will bring a message which
will be helpful, not only to the teach
er, but especially to the trustees, and
desire, to impress upon you that it
is your duty to secure all the lnfor-
nation you can that will be helpful in
your work l know that you will get
some helpful ideas by attending this
meeting. Drop me a card and let me
know if I may expect you. Again
