A Fine Lot of Chickens.

the number of about 700, ranging
from two days old when the reporter
saw them on Wednesday. 1t is a

AS TO THE SCHOOLS.
Prof. w. Il. Tate, Supervisor of Rural
Schools Writes of the Duties of
Teachers and Trustees.

To the Editor of The Herald and
News: We have once more reached the
annual period of unrest in the teach
ing profession of South Carolina. The
rural schools are beginning to close,
and even the town and city schools
are looking forward to commencement
exercises. With the closing Of the
years work come usually the feeling
of uncertainty on the part of the
teacher as to the position for next
year. This is often accompanied by
the anxious search and furious appl1-
cation for positions If the past
years are any indication as to the fu-
ture, from so to Is per cent OF our
teachers will change places at the be-
ginning of the new school session.
This instability in the profession,
from whatever causes it results, is
the greatest curse under which the
schools of the State are now suffering.
It is absolutely impossible for COM
munity to build up school or for
teacher to develop ability or acquire
reputation as long as three-fourtns
of our teachers teach one year IN a
place.
The fault sometimes lies with the
teacher who. from lack Of interest
in his work or from desire for new
surroundings, is unwilling to cult
vate the field which he has entered
long enough to reap the harvest. The
worst recommendation which teach
er can present to a board is batch
of letters showing that he has taught
at five or six places in as many years.
The teacher should at least Wish 10
remain long enough in one community
to become thoroughly identified WIFI
the interests of the people. 1t IS I'M
nossiblp for him to adapt his teacn-
ing to the needs of community Wnen
he does not remain long enough TO
become acquainted with these needs
The fault sometimes lies with the
school board who labors under tne
mistaken impression that teacnef
loses his influence as soon as ne en-
! +ers on friendly relations with MS
pupils. Sometimes the board does not
appreciate the fact that a teacner De-
comes more valuable with experience
and deserves substantial recognltlon
Of increasing proficiency. A scnooi
hoard should show its appreciation
for a good teacher by at least a smah
annual increase in salary.

IMPORTANT CHANGES
IN NEXT WORLD TOUR

According to Representative vogel-
sang, a number of important change
win be made In the itinerary Of the
tour planned for 1914. The new It'll.
nerary, for next year, win have a
starting date on January q, arriving
at Colon, january 30,s and Honolulu
February IL. But with San Francisco
included Honolulu win not be reach.
ed until February 20.
Mr.. Vogelsang had made out q par.
tial itinerary for the new westward
trips, to start In January, 1914, the
route being from New York to Ha-
vana. to Kingston, to Colon through
the Panama Canal and thence straight
across the Pacific to Honolulu and
then on westward to New York over
tlie old route. with the exception OF
Calcutta, which has been cut out en-
tirely on account Of the difficulty rails.
ed by the action of the Hooghly Riv-
er.
The cablegrat1 received by Mr.. yo4
gelsang, however, advised that the
itinerary should include San Francisco
and Mr.. yogelsang has now included
the city OF the Golden Gate, which
will make difference Of few days
in the trip.

certain OF our men for Inc part they
played in the recent trouble between
the company and our men, One Of the
masters was recently ordered discharg.
ed by Mr.. Kennedy. and when request,
ed to give q reason for this order stat.
ed that the master was too old. An.
other master upon interviewing Mr.
Kennedy was also told that II was to
be his policy to replace the older en-
ployes with younger men.
At a special meeting Of this associa-
ton, called to consider the matter. Il
was decided that this Harbof would not
permit such an injustice to take place,
and Mr.. Kennedy was so informed.
Another matter brought to the at
tention of this Harbor. and still fur.
Their illustrating Mr.. Kennedy's feel
ing toward our members, Is that fact
that he has issued an order that when
vessels arriving on Sunday with q
cargo of sugar to be discharged that
day, In the American Hawaiian ships
1.-THE overtime being paid by the latter
company, the masters and mates shall
be replaced by the stevedores, who are
to draw the overtime pay, thus De
priying the officers Of your vessels Of
the overtime pay they are Justly en-
titled TO. This action on the part or
Mr.. Kennedy can only be attributed to
personal feeling, or III win, as the
overtime being paid by the American
Hawaiian people, entails no expense
on your company.
Again We call your attention to the
fact that masters or officers who are
detained at home, sick for q day or
two, are having their pay locked.
This 1iggariiy policy Is not pursued
elsewhere in the territory and we con-
fidently believe that 1t will fail to re-
ceive your approval

Speaking of the action of President

Mr.. Kennedy has acted IN this mat

pique. He returned from the coast
last August to find that the captains
had defeated the company. That
made him mad and he has done the
rest to get even. If he thinks though
that he is going to win easily, or that
the community is going to stand by
and allow him to upset the traffic of
