Education is not only good for people, but it it good for animals and tables. We call it improving the Irish potato when we increase its value as a food product, but we are only educating the potato. We call it breaking a mule when we go about training the young animal for service, but we are merely educating him. If is good for potatoes and mules, it is better for folks. If we educate everybody, it mean everybody will be equal Not at all. One star differs from another star in glory. It is not for us to say who will be greatest and who will be least, that is for God to determine. But it is our duty to give all an equal chance and then let God choose the greatest from among them. If we educate everybody, some will continue to e and some will continue to split rails. There are big jobs and little jobs, but it should be the full man to his respective sphere. If a thing is worth having it be paid for. and you must pay for before you get them. Payment must made in If any of you ex- to become groat, you must pay the price in labor and self- denial in advance. You cannot obtain the magnificent view from THE NORFOLK SOUTHERN Will.

During the session just closed students were enrolled and per cent of these agreed to teach two years in the public schools, thus obtaining tuition without charge. The de- taught in the school are English, mathematics, his science, pedagogy, household economics, school gov- and music. The mental music department is not free, but this has been departments to be added next session. President Wright expressed gratification at the work of the first session, and appreciation of so many people showing their interest by attending the com- exercises. He also said that during the year of the faculty had made addresses at educational gatherings in this and other States. In addition to the regular two courses of ten weeks each will be conducted for train- teachers for better work in their schools.

Men bad agreed upon at cents and the price at which it was worth at the it should have been delivered, Carson failed to make delivery. The two points set out by the defendant were that it was a gambling contract in futures, and that as the contract had not been made in writing it was not valid. Testimony offered by the plaintiff showed that while the contract had not been made in writing there were several com- witnesses to a verbal con- tract to deliver the cotton. The judgment of the court in favor of the plaintiff on the ground that Carson being a farm- engaged in cultivating cotton he evidently intended to make delivery of the cotton at the time of entering into the agreement, hence it was not a gambling contract; and that the evidence clearly showed the existence of a parole contract even though it was not in writing.

Parham has placed in my hands for sale his splendid Warehouse Property All of this property except the warehouse site will be divided into lots and sold at public auction on the premises on TUESDAY, MAY Beginning at O'clock, A. M. This property is situated between the Atlantic Coast Line and Norfolk Southern depots, and is in the business of that part of Greenville known as Tobacco Town. It consists of lots fronting on Dickinson ave- which has concrete sidewalks and paved street; lots on Ninth street which is a sand clay street and the main thoroughfare of Tobacco Town; lots fronting on Tenth street which is the broadest street in Greenville and leads direct to the Atlantic Coast Line depot. A railroad siding can be ex- tended across Tenth street into this property which makes it very valuable for heavy traffic. To give an idea of the demand for places of business in this locality, Higgs Brothers have recently built a brick block containing five handsome stores just in front of this property and they were occupied as soon as finished, and there is now a demand for more. This is a rare opportunity to buy a business site, for this property is absolutely a safe and paying investment. Remember the date of sale, Tuesday, May 1910. L C.

In addition to that he is an honest, upright man, one who loves right because he is right, and eschews evil because it is evil.

He is an able lawyer with an experience of sixteen years successful He possesses that judicial temperament which weighs matters carefully before reach conclusions. Mr. will go up to the judicial convention with more votes than any other candidate.

The same to fathers, too, who neglect to frank and open with sons. Says Lady are deeply to blame tor s large portion of the miseries enumerated. If fathers aged their sons to be frank and with them as they would be with their youthful friends, their advice would prepare their children to beware of strange woman whose steps lead down to Vice exposed and robbed of its mys tery would disgust rather than charm; they recognize the truth of St- Paul's teaching that bodies are the temples of the living when preserved in purity, if mothers would only learn to win the confidence of their daughters and teach them all they ought to know of them selves, thus guarding them from dangers and instructing them in sacred duties and responsibility, how many a girl would have been saved who is now lost through sheer ignorance, and from the foolish and misplaced modesty of the only one who could have properly enlightened her. There is a world of truth there, but while Lady Cook's theories are highly commendable, later day prudery still stands in the way of that frank education of the young in the home.
