3soUTHERN EDUCATIONAL AssO- CAPTION AND CONFERENCE FOR EDUCATION IN THE SOUTH WILL WORK TOGETHER TO GET MORE EFFICIENT RE- SUITS IN SOUTH
By ". Ik. TATE President Scuthera Educational Asso-


 Columbia, S. C., March 21.-(Special) Between April !. and 1o 1914, there will be held in the city of Louisville con- vention, which will exemplify in a striking manner the radical changes which have recently taken place in the meaning or the word education This word once called up images of the bespeetacled schoolmaster with rod and book in hand teaching the young idea how to shoot by means of the alphabet and the multiplica- tion table; or, of the university pro- lessor delving into ancient lore. The term education still includes these images. but vastly more. The great cooperative movement of modern times, the corn club, the farm demonstration work. the coun- try church and newspaper, the Chamber of Commerce are all phases of educa- tion.
 The teacher and the business men have joined forces with a common purpose-to bring greater prosperity and happiness to all the people by developing to the fullest extent the capacities of each and all.
 Meet on Common Ground
 All these forces will meet on common ground and with a common purpose at Louisville April 7-10, in the joint conven- tion of the Southern Educational associa- tion and of the Conference for Education in the South For many years there has been a feeling that these two bodies. rep resenting the educational and constructive forces of the south, should constitute one organization and should combine their efforts to a solution of the social and educational problems of our section This feeling will reach it's consummation in Louisville, in a series of general sessions and special conferences which will include teachers, business men, farmers, doctors, preachers and every one else interested in the social welfare.
 Modern educational movements will be presented in the form of demonstrations. For this purpose the great armory build ing will be turned into a demonstration hall, in the center of which there will be

His Share of Harrisburg's
Gift to Needy

Subscriptions to the Belgian relief
fund as received at the office of the
Telegraph are climbing steadily to-
ward the $4,000 mark, and this figure
will be reached this week, according
to present indications.
The upstate section is being
looked to by Philadelphia to contrib
ute even more heavily toward the sec
ond food ship than 1t did toward the
first, and Harrisburg is setting an eN-
cellent example to other communities.
As rapidly as funds accumulate the
Telegraph is forwarding them to the
Philadelphia headquarters Of the re-
lief committee.
William Il. Hawley, who lives at
1117 Market street, this city. to-day
donated 200 pieces of music to be sold
for the relief fund. Mr.. Hawley is the
author of numerous songs. Among
them are when Old England Has Set
Ireland Free" and my Bonnie Irish
Rose" The music to both these songs
was written by Paul Williams. Mr..
Hawley brought 100 copies of each to
the Telegraph office for the. relief fund,
and they will be sold over the counter
at the Telegraph office at 10 cents
each. This presents the opportunity
of getting enjoyable songs and at the
same time contributing to the relief
fund
