Eaters Of Locusts.

While the locust tjust now OF news

vourer and famine bringer, there are
many we'll authenticated cases in his
tory showing that populations reduc-
ed to the last extremity have utilized
the destructive insect as food. Dio-
dorus Siculus relates that an Ethio-
plan tribe was known as Acridophagl
("eaters of locusts,") while Aristotle
writes of certain part of Greece
where the people regarded them as
delicacies. Layard. the explorer,
found on the engraved monuments

Gusts on rods. presumably indicating
their use as food. 1t is not believed
that any race today eats them. They
are regarded everywhere in the east
as an abhorrent calamity. and the
presence of vast swarms in Palestine
this spring is held to be a forerunner
of complete crop failure, both OF

1t is probably old-fashioned, but
wish that the schools would use bells.
A school bell sounds fine. 1t breaks
the monotony of the day to hear it
pealing forth at intervals during the
day for opening, and recesses. But,
then, everything do move, conse-
quently the school bell is almost a
thing of the past. And they tell me
that the church bell is now going.
Things are becoming more and more
methodical. Well. I guess that is
we'll; only ! like to hear the bells
ring. Guess it is just because l like
a lot of racket and fuss. l hope l
will see before long good old vitri-
fed brick all over Main street; then
we can hear the clatter of horses
hoofs, and loud rumble of wagons.

The beginning of school marks the
end of the dullness. How refreshing
it will be to see the Carlisle dormi-
tories lighted up again. l. pass that
way some times after dark, and now
it looks real gloomy. We people
here in Bamberg county have come
to look upon the summer months il
a dreary sort of way. Business
drops off, the people never seem to
have any money to- spend, and the
merchants continually tell one about
how bum" trade is. So l say I am
always glad to see the schools start,

By the opening of the term next
year, l hope that many Of the school
districts of the county, will have TAX
en- advantage of the compulsory at
tendance law. 1t seems that an elec-
ton or a petition signed by a GER
tain number of patrons will evoke
the law in any district. Personally,
l think the legislature made a mis-
take in not passing a Statewide law,
instead of a local option compulsory
attendance law, but that is neither
here nor there. Maybe We will have
that some day. But since we have
the local option law, hope that
every district will take advantage of
it. Ignorance is an affection this
State suffers from dreadfully. This
was showr most clearly last year
when all the Democratic voters were
required to enroll for the primary In
person and sign their names to the
club rolls. The number Of voters
who could not sign their names was
appalling. Let US see to it that fif-
teen years hence, that number will
have decreased to none at all. 1t is
not q disgrace to you if you cannot
read or write, because you doubtless
could not help yourself; but it does
not speak complimentary about you
if you allow your own children to
grow up as you did.
