Judge Moore Makes Good Impression
There.
The following complimentary ref
erence to Judge Ernest Moore ap-
peared in The Anderson Daily Mail.
while Judge Moore was presiding
over a recent term OF the court of
Anderson county:
Judge Moore and are from the
same section Of the state and we
met yesterday afternoon for the first
time in 10 years or more. The last
time we were together was in Chester
when he was representing Lancaster
county In suit brought against the
county by the widow OF a white man
named Morrison, who was lynched
for assassinating a well-to-do citizen.
Ine widow was suing the county for
$4,000 damages, and through her
attorney, Mr.. w. H. Newbold of
Chester, was moving for a change of
venue. The hearing was before Judge
Gage at chambers before he became
Justice on the supreme bench. I
went to Chester to cover the proceed
lngs for some newspaper, and re-
MEMBER Judge Cages statement at
the conclusion of the hearing. He
said that the attorney for the
plaintiff had not met the statutoriaI
requirements for procuring a change
or venue from Lancaster county to
chester, but that he was going to
grant the motion and order a change
Oh venue anyway. The county an
pealed to the supreme court and
Judge Gage was reversed. The case
against the county died when the de-
cision of the supreme court was an
nounced. Or at lesst it hasn't been
heard of since then.
AT that time Judge Moore was
practicing law in Lancaster. Since
then he has been elected to the
pench, and is on his first visit to An
derson county. He has made a pro-
round impression upon the members
OF the bar and the court attaches.
and is admired by all of them"

Association.

Association.
To the Editor Of The News:
1t is the object of the Civic League
to form an association to bridge the
gap between the home and the
school.
Here and there educators with
vision have cried out that never un-
til the school and the home, the two
great determining forces in a child's
development, work together can the
result desired be reached.
We surmise that there is not a
teacher In the country today who
would refuse to give assent to the
statement expressed in our title, that
could we but universally add to the
authority and training of the school
the influence and force OF the home,
the net product is bound to be a
farther reaching progress in all that
goes toward the making of a noble,
Intelligent citizenship than we have
mad In the past. Yet 80 slow Of heart
are we to understand, or to live up
to our understanding, that year after
year goes by and still there are hun
dreds OF our schools failing to utilize
or In any way to cooperate with the
~~->SS ~ sAS houOo duOuI Iueu1.
No board of education of faculty.
OF school can foist upon a commu-
nifty a Home and School Associa-
tion." The growth must come from
a mutual inclination. It is the work.
ing together OF the two that makes
the bond Of humanism which holds
and wears.
The Home and School" movement
means-the formation Of a sbridge
that will carry the child to his best
development through the formative
period of his life.
While In the outward expression.
there may be large public gatherings,
still the fundamental thing is never
done until teachers and those of the
community Interested in child life
gather to discuss the problems both
are touching in their relations to the
same child.
Therefore, the parents and friends
of the Lancaster graded school are
cordially invited to attend a meeting
at the Central school building on
Friday, October 1, 1915, at 4:3O D. m.
for the purpose of forming perna-
nent organization Of the parents and
teachers of the school.
