PROF. HAND OPPOSED
TO GREAT DISPLAYS
DOES NOT FAVOR SO MANY
FRILLS AND FLOWERS
PUT VANITY ASIDE
Writes Here to Public School Of
ficials That Commencement
Idea Is All Wrong
PUT VANITY ASIDE

Public school officials OF Anderson
county have received from Professor
w. Fl. Hand 4 letter in regard TO the
public school commandments. This
letter Is so full OF real logic for the
public schools that il should be read
by every patron OF every public schoo!
the following is the letter:
THE end OF the school years is ap-
preaching. and l venture to offer a few
innocent suggestions to some of nv
ieiiow teachers. 1t is not possible to
have fewer commencements and diplo-
mas and no baccalaureate addresses
in our common schools? Let us not
be in vain. Leave the pompous airs
TO the collegette, Mr., Swearingen' IS
happily named "monohippic college,"
Such airs are the crowning glory of
that nodescript institution. A man
OF simple thstes must have a Gu
rious sensation when he Is invited to
deliver an annual sermon or a bacca-
laureate address before q half dozen
young girls in short dresses and half
as many boys in knickerbockers, POM
Eously styled the graduating. class. We
teachers suffer immensely from such
grandiose performances.
it 40 entirely proper 10 make the
closing exercises of your school en-
joyable and instructive, but there Is
no possible defense for taking days
and even weeks of your time and your
pupils time preparing for elaborate
dishlay .c nretisy;. somebody's vII1itty.
Time is too precious and the school
revenue is too small to be spent in
mere stage show. Let us have little
lass tinsel, bombast and folderol.
Make your exercises simple, brief and
olevating. Avoid coarse, negro min
strel shows and cheap vaudeville per-
formances. They degrade. Our
youngsters are already too much in
clined toward fiippaucy, clownishnoss
and the limelight. They need training
in dignity and poise. Let your exer-
cises be fresh. Permit Sparticus and
the rest of the gladiators to take a. rest
and leave off Benedict Arnold and the
black horse for one season. All about
you are fresh and inviting 5ubjects.
The money spent on engraved in
yitationes might be better spent for a
good school globe, and the money Civ
en- for diplomas would furnish your
school with much needed maps. tie

In memory OF Little +. E. Major.

- On ne 1st day 70 April, 1914, at go
o'clock God called this little jewel to
His home in glory.
He was two years II months and 2G
days old. This is comparatively short
life but even in this short space oi
time the chords of love and affection
! have become sostrongly entwined
around all that ken wihm shat Ia
break them asunder at this time
was hard to bear. His lovely
disposition was such that to know him
was To love him. when imagination
points before one his smiling counten-
ance basking in the sunshine OF Gods
presence.
We fancy we can see him nesting
closer to Jesus and expressing his de-
light that he lis now free from the
concentrating influence of this world
where ell is pardon. peace and Joy
and wa arc he can happily await the
coming of those loved ones left behind
and closer to him who hath said.
TIL ese trials are ties that bind us
closer and closer to him who hath
said;
Suffer little children to come unto
heaven.

Small Attendance At Meeting Yes
treday, But Plans Were Ali
Completed

Considerable disappointment was
felt by the school officials of the coun-
ty that only 25 of the 200 school
trustees in Anderson county appeared
yesterday for the organization of the
county association bu the ones pres
ent made up in earnestness what they
lacked in number and as q result a
splendid organization took place.
The meeting was called to order at
noon in the court house, ]. b. FELTON,,
county superintendent OF education,
having charge of the organization. Mr..
FELTON,, stated the purpose of the meet
ing and a temporary organization took
place, followed by the selection of Of
iscers. Dr.. w. A. Trippe was elected
president Of the association, ]. NJ.
Garrett first yice-president, C. C.
KingAsecond vice-president and DR.. C.
l.. Gdyton secretary.
The chairman appointed a commit
tee composed of Prof j. H. Watkins,
j. w. Sanders and j. B. Spearman to
present at the next meeting of the
association complete constitution
and set of by laws. 1t was moved

appear at a certain number of the
meetings in the course of a yea:
would cease to be trustee and that
the county board would be petitioned
to appoint successor. In all prob
ability this will appear in the rule7
presented.
By rising vote the trustee re-
elected Miss Maggie Darlington as
supervisor of rural schools for An
derson county, provided the necessary
money with which to pay her salary
can be secured from the State.
The association also passed resolu-
tions thanking Miss Darlington and
g. w. Chambers for the splendid sue
cess OF the county field day, held
here recently.
1t was decided that these meetings
are to take place quarterly. and 1t is
hoped by the officers OF the assocla-
tion that the next meeting will awake
more interest and bring. a larger at
