EDUCATION
(By VERLWES.)

Upon looking up the word '"edu-
cation" in your dictionary: you will
find that it means the act of educat-
ing, instruction, discipline, schooling,
culture, refinement. "Yes, but what Of
that; I don't care what it means;
don't I know" You probably know
and probably you don't. Nowadays
YOU have to use education in every
thing that you go at. So an educa-
ton now is absolutely necessary.
Now, parents, don't keep your child
or children from school just simply
because they're past IA and you don't
have to send them. Don't stop them,
but send them on every day you can.
They might not want to go. But don't
give in to them. Make them go.
If they don't see where you are right
now, they will later on and will thank
YOU for it too. For as years roll on
more important will be the educa-
ton. And if one is not able to work
for himself somebody else won't do
it for him.
So 1 say get a good education if
possible

to the Tyrell Hygienic Institute:
II bought your j. B. L. Cascade
several months ago and already it
has made me robust and healthy
though I was badly run down be-
cause Of a complication of troubles.
This IN spite of the fact that I am

COME TO CHAUTAUQUA.

1t was a splendid thing for the
merchants and other business men Of
Lexington to do when they put their
shoulder to the wheel and, by fine
spirit of cooperation, agreed to pay
all expenses Of the Chautauqua this
year, in order that their friends in
the country might share with them,
free Of charge, the cultural benefit
from this form Of entertainment 1t
is a spirit that The Dispatch News
is particularly gratified to see grow
ing in Lexington and bespeaks q
solidarity of sentiment i'm the COM
munity and a desire and determina-
ton to cooperate for the general good
that augurs well for the future. No
community is ever able to advance
unless the men Of affairs in it are will
ing to do something now and then
for the general good. Selfshpess and
self-contentment mean stagnation all
the time, while cooperation and good
fellowship make for advancement and
prosperity.
The Dispatch-News takes pleasure,
on behalf Of the gentlemen who have
made possible the enjoyment Of this
high class entertainment without cost,
of urging our neighbors in the coun
try to avail themselves Of this oppor-
tunity to spend several pleasant and
profitable hours at the Chautauqua.
From al accounts the program will
be sufficiently varied to please diver
gent tastes, being made up of some
excellent musical and comedy num-
bers, as we'll as high class lectures.
Let everybody who can, come to
Lexington April 19, 20 and II in the
full assurance that they will be hear
tily welcome and that they can find
no more pleasant way to spend an
hour or so.

THE DEAN OF
COLLEGE PRESIDENTS
possible.

The Journal of Education, published
in Boston, has page devoted to
who's Who in Education" In the
issue of March 8, the following para
graphs appear relative to the Presi-
dent of Winthrop College:
1.-The President of Winthrop College,
the South Carolina College for Wo-
men, has several exceedingly inter-
esting distinctions. He is the Dean
of College Presidents in active service
in the United States; he is the only
college or university president in ac-
tive service in the college he has
served for thirty-five years. DR.. John
son is the only college or university
president in active service as head Of
the college that has had no other
president in it's history. 49,.
CDR. D. B. Johnson has purchased
every one Of the plots and lots that
make the more than three hundred
acres Of the college ,and has placed
every one of the buildings in an ideal
plant Of s2,50O,000, and he has had the
confidence Of men with large means
and big hearts, so that the State has
an investment Of less than 100000 in
the plant representing four times that
amount.
winthrop College was the first
distinctly educational professional
school in the South Atlantic States.
There are LOO in the College today.
and in the summer session there are
more than 1,400. 1t should also be
said that DR.. Johnson, as President
Of the National Education Association
at it's New York meeting, had the
best program ever presented to any
American educational association
with the best attendance, larger real
non-local attendance probably than in
all the meetings SINCE"

RESPONSIBLE for the gala week enjoyed
by a great many from other parts of
the state deserve commendation for
the optimism which prompted their
staging Of the festival and the splen-
did manner in which they carried out
their program. The show as whole
would have done credit to much
larger community. than Columbia can
hope to be for some time. Many Lex
ineton people availed themselves of
the opportunity to enjoy little re-
taxation, and all who participated in
the occasion are loud in their praise
Of the show.

paid the state is Of small consequence.
Er comparison with other states we
are enjoying a very low per capita
cost CT government, but to man who
owes ten dollars taxes and has only
five dollars with which to pay it you
had as we'll argue the problems OF
Euclid as to attempt to convince him
that he is better off than his fellow
citizens in Texas or Massachusetts, or
anywhere else.
"R. S." in the TAX Corner" of the
University News, repu5lished in The
Dispatch-News last week, lays down
the dictum that low taxes mean low
efficiency in government and high
taxes the reverse. True, of course,
providing that in both cases the
money is always spent to the best ad-
vantage. The efficiency secured from
the expenditure of public money
varies and varies considerably with
the officeholders who have to do the
spending. It is true in public as we'll
as in private life that one man can
make a dollar go twice as far as his
neighbor. In so far as honesty Of ad-
ninistration is concerned, it is our be-
lief that this state gets dollar for dol
lar for the money spent, but to say
that every dollar appropriated is eco
nomically op even wisely spent is to
expect the impossible. Perhaps the ap-
Proclamation to perfection is as good
with US as with most state govern
ments at the present time. But the
mere spending of money does not al
ways bring results. The responsibility
for bad spending, however, is to some
extent with the people after all, be-
cause it is upon them that the choice
of the men who must spend the money
falls.
The last legislature missed a good
opportunity to help relieve the bur-
den of the average taxpayer, but it
failed signally to do so when it re-
fused to pass the bill placing tax on
gasoline, to seriously consider the in
heritance tax measure or the constitu-
tionai amerdment, proposed by Sena-
tor Mar:ons committee, giving the
LEGISLATURE power to classify property
for the purposes of taxation. Here
were three constructive measures, CAL
culated to afford real relief and at the
same time allow the state to go for
ward, but the legislature was so busy
with other matters that it could not
see the opportunity for real service.
The tax system in South Carolina is
rotten, and taxes are high-to many
people who do not come in contact
with much of the results from their
money-and who have little with
which to pay-but political revolu-
tions in which factional hatreds are
engendered are the poorest sort OF
remedies. 1t will take calm, deliber-
ate discussion, scientific research and
the ability of statesmen, who are not
often born in our political tempests in
South Carolina, to cure the evils. For
this reason we trust the storm will be
long enough delayed in breaking to al
low of some 'reali discussion of the
problems and some constructive work
before partizanship again divides our
people into hostile camps.
; The Dispatch News will welcome
any discussion of the subject in it's
columns, and invites all who care to
contribute some light on the question
to write for the paper.

A VERY PLEASANT DAY.

the pleasure Of attending the school
closing at Center in the Macedonia
district. We were highly pleased with
the entertainment, it was we'll gotten
up and nicely rendered and did credit
to the teacher, Mr.. c. c. Shealy, who
is also our friend. We extend our con-
gratulations to Mr.. Shealy and wish
him many future successes in his
chosen profession.
After the close # the school enter
tainment, the Rev. Mr.. Stroup and
Mr.. julius Sharpe entertained the
audience with very brief but instruc-
tive speeches. The picnic was excel
lent, the day pleasant and beautiful
and it seemed that nature had put on
it's most cheerful aspect to make
everybody happy.
T was delighted beyond expression
to meet quite number Of old friends,
from whom I have been separated for
a number of years.
The school house at Center is a
beautiful modern building and a credit
to the community, the location being
near the home CT my boyhood and
young manhood. You may be sure /
was delighted to pay visit to that
neigh5orhood, and as I looked upon
the surrounding wods and fields, I was
carried hacl, in nemor to the days
when as little yellow-legged, bare
foot boy 1 romped with other little
boys whose feet were as bare and
whose legs were as yellow as my own.
I could almost fancy myself with an
old squirt gun or a pop gun or a bow
and arrow, pursuing some innocent
little sparrow o. chasing butterfly or
grasshopper. And little later on how
we searched the old fields for the
little Easter blossom with three leaves.
Well, it doesn't make any difference
how we used them nor what for, boys,
Il any of you see this you will know
and it don't pay to explain everything,
does it? And still a little later on
when we began to exchange conf
dences about other companions of our
choosing, who sometimes seemed in
different to our friendly advances. All
Of these memories were brought back
so fresh and so vivid that I almost
fancied myself living over again the
life of my youth, so pregnant with
Joy and so free from care that I was
almost lost in a spirit of gayety, but
when I looked upon the furrowed
brows and the silver threads that
adorned the temples of those that had
been the companions of my boyhood,
WIS forcibly reminded that I too had
passed meridian and am now travers-
ing the latter half of my earthly pill
grimage. However, these thoughts
are not altogether sad, for each stage
of life has it's peculiarities. Youth
lives in anticipation and old age in re-
trospection, therefore in each stage OF
life we have source of pleasure that
cannot be appreciated until we have
felt it and know its worth.
Mr.. Editor, these home comings or
home goings, as the case may be, and
the meeting with old friends of the
tried and true type so fills us with
pleasures inexpressable and unspeak-
able that we wish through the col
umns of the old Dispatch, that has
been a regular visitor in most of their
homes for score of years, to extend
greetings to all OF those dear friends
who were present and to the absent
ones also, and we sincerely hope that
