\’OL. XVII, No ;i4.]
An Open Letter to the Teachers 01 White
County.
My Dear Friends:
I hope that many of you are
planning to attend the Summer
School at Clarkesviile, lune 19-30.
I shall be there myself, and am
anxious to meet you there, and
know you better. We shall have a
good faculty, and are expecting
teachers from all over the State.
Many, of you went last year, but
that is a good reason for going
again. You can continue the work
you took last year, beginning just
where you left off. Some new
courses have been added, and others
still will be offered after the School
begins. If you have a third grade
or second grade license, you ought
to come to Clarkesviile, determined
to get a better one at the next
examination, which will be held
the first of August. If you have a
first grade license, you ought to
take the Agriculture, Cooking and
Dietetics, Household Management,
Canning and Club Work, Drawing
and Handicrafts, and other practi¬
cal work. Every teacher needs to
know something of these tilings,
because the ordinary school work
is worth very little without them.
Specialists in Agriculture are in
great demand, are paid $1200 a
year to begin with. Specialists in
Domestic Science are, also, in de¬
mand, and are paid far more than
the usual teacher receives. Two
Georgia girls receive $2400.00 a
year for work in this subject. Two
more are paid $1200,00. As a
matter of course, you cannot learn
enough in two weeks to win such
promotion as this, but you can be¬
gin the subject, usp it as you learn
jit your own teaching, and then
follow up the work if you wish to
specialize in it.
1 wish to call your attention, also
to the Primary Method to be taught
at Clarkesviile. The Primary
Number, the Reading, the Drawing
and Handicrafts, and the Nature
Study are intended mainly for pri¬
mary teachers. 1 was asked the
other day to recommend a teacher
>0 fill the place of Primary Super¬
visor at a salary of $1200.00 a year.
One young Georgia girl is receiv¬
ing $2000.00 a year to be Primary
Supervisor. Again, you cannot
learn enough in two weeks to ob¬
tain this place or salary, but you
can begin, and if you work, the
two weeks will mean a great deal
to you.
We want you to know that this
Summer School at Clarkesviile is
not a money-making affair. The
instructors give their work. Not
one is paid any salary, ahd the
board which is charged is barely
enough to meet necessary expenses.
Please consider the matter well,
and come if you possibly can.
Very .truly your friend,
C. S. Parrish.

THRIFT TALKS
ln the course of human events it
becomes necessary for most people
to borrow money. Business men
who can make ten per cent, or
more out of trading find it 'profit¬
able to borrow in order to carry on
business on it larger scale, discount
their bills and carry complete
stocks. Others find it desirable at
times to borrow for various pur¬
poses, and some find it necessary to
borrow because they have either
failed to save, or have been unable
to save and are confronted with an
exigency that requires money.
Most banks make it a rule to
lend to only those who are cus¬
tomers, and customers mean de¬
positors. If you favor the banker
with your account, giving him a
profit from the use of your
he will be glad to reciprocate arid
let you use his money when ydff
need it and offer the proper securi¬
ty. The rule is well established to
lend in the proportion of not over 4
five to one; that is, if you keep a
balance of $100. he w^uld lend
you $5cxi, if he thought well of your
credit standing. The greatest mis¬
take business men make is to keep
little or no balance in the bank ana*
then expect the bank and then i f
ex¬
pect the bank to accommodate,
them with loans.
Nothing so hurts an application
for a loan in a well.managed bank
as a low average balance, and all
good bankers give heed to this fac¬
tor. Therefore, as a sturtitig point,
do your business through a bank,
depositing your receipts and mak¬
ing your payments by check, an
keep a balance large enough t
gain the bunker’s good will wlie
he looks at bis ledgers to see hos#
much of your own money you have
available when the needs of busi¬
ness require. Dqti’t do all your
business on borrowed money.
