Teachers Association

The Sumter County Teachers AS
sociation held its regular meeting at
the Girls High School on Saturday,
May l., at 1870. The devotional ex-
| ercises were given by Rev. J. P. Mar
ion of the Presbyterian church. He
said that the secret OF happiness. does
not lie in money or worldly pleasures.
or anything Of that kind. but that the
happy man, according to the Bible. is
he who avoids the counse1s OF the un-
godly.
Everyone was delighted to hear
Miss Madeline Spigner's talk on Ru-
raj School Improvement Associations
or school community clubs. These
should be permanent organizations in
any community. Every school and
community is helped by these clubs in
many ways They make, the people
appreciate the best, want the best. and
willing to work for the best. 1t is
surprising that oue club last year rails
ed by outside efforts more than $4,000
for school betterment. Let us get
our ideal and then work for it, was
Miss Spigner's appeal to the School
Community Clubs.
Miss Spigncr made known that she
was retiring from her work in June,
though she would still be president.
Fer successor will be called School
Community Organizer instead of State
President Of the Rural School I'm

There being no further business the

The modern dance, as exemplifed
and demonstrated by number of the
progressive young people Of
Sumter is the subject OF comment and
criticisl1 by conservative minded folk,
who do not subscribe to the doctrine
that anything supposed to be stylish
is permissible in polite society. There
are lines, perhaps not very clearly de-
fined, but that exist, nevertheless, that
mark the boundaries of good conduct
ON the ball room floor. as well as else
where, and young people should he
careful not to overstep those boundar-
les. Dances that might pass muster IN
a third class cabaret. when performed
by professionals as an exhibition OF &c
centric art, are not edifying spectacles
