IliE FINE WORK
Total Enrollment Has Reached
Eighty and the Attendance
Will Average Eighty Per
ot That Number.
Summerville Arademy has Just conj
pleted its first month’s work and con
sidering the warm weather everything
is in good condition. The enrollment
reached SO, while the percentage of
attendance averaged 88 per cent of
this number. At present there are a
few absen on account of sickness in
the family; and there are three or
four out temporarily because of eye
trouble, but these are expected to re
turn soon and bring the attendance
up ; hove 90 per cent of the enroll
ment.
The monthly report cards will be
out Monday which will show to pa
rents what their children are doing
in the various lines of study, so it is
expected that these will be watched
with great interest both by students
and patrons. One feaure of the new'
system of marking and explained by
the cards is that no grade will be
given higher than the deportment
grade, even if a scholar is naturally
brilliant and has had a good record.
The object being to eliminate all ten
dencies which go toward wasting
time; the theory being that an intelli
gent but mischievous boy has no right
to attract the attention of a dull but
hard-working boy, or that the latter;
hoy to injure himself by trying to en- \
entertain the others. It is simply a ;
step toward better discipline.
The academic department will soon i
be fitted with new adjustable desks ,
like those at present in Miss Gert- |
rude Comey’s room. The school is j
looking forward to this improvement, !
since only a few schools In the state !
can boast of such desks. Besides this j
addition the students are to receive
the blessings of new reference books
for the library, dictionaries for the
English and French classes, and out
line maps for the history department.
All of these improvements will bene
fit the students materially, and it is
expected they will greatly enhance
the reputation of the school. On the
whole the new principal is very much
pleased with the outlook and believes I
that with the hearty co-operation of
all concerned the school will realize
still greater improvements.

to a business, he is more certain of his salary than the owner is of an an
nual surplus.
The man who is cheerfully and constantly seeking the burden of ad
ditional work is second only In importance to the man who is looking for
a higher and more important kind of work, and fitting his mind or hand
for it. In good times he will receive better pay than the rest. In hard
times, when the whirring of machinery is stopped and panic stalks abroad,
he is certain of employment when other men are idle . He is the king of
laborers, and 10 to 1 he is a student of his business as well, because men
tal ambition and physical energy are close of kin.
Labor conquers all things, because it makes a man of service to his
fellows and binds him to their purses and their souls as mortar hinds
brick and stone. It lifts him to place of power, for men, lik*- bees and
laboring ants, have no use for the useless, and no man can long retain
the esteem and regard of his fellows who does not render to mankind
gome helpful service of brain or brawn.
Hard work is a certificate entitling the nobleman of commerce to a
list of'friends, and in the society of the decent no man is despised whose
hands wear the callous of the plow or whose shoulders are rounded with
the stoop of toll.
All opportunities are open to the seeker after burdens, and no palace
of reward has a closed door to the man of faithful and intelligent serv
ice.
Complaints without cause are t*g easy to find as cornstalks on an
low r. 'arm. They infest the universe and howl like coyotes on a wintry
nigh? They cry out for ease and plenty, for repose and for deliverance
from the ordinary cares of life. But the man who protests becuu? he is
not asked to do enough or complains because his burden is too light for
the development of his powers is as hard to find as a contented man in
Russia, or a fresh biscuit in the Arctic Circle.
PROF. SIIFBi IB
■SOJJTIOIS
Principal of Davidson School
Urggs the Co-operation of
the Parents In His Work with
the Pupils.
To the Patrons of the Davidson School.
A certain city in this country has
achieved an enviable reputation in an
educational way. ( This city w T as vis
ited by a certain superintendent for
the purpose of securing plans and
methods for his own benefit and that
of his community.
He found in these schools much that
pleased him. His visit was very prof
itable.
! 11 0 accosted a man on the street
whom he did not know' and asked him
"What is the chief occupation of the
people of this town?" “Oh, going to
school," was the quick reply.
What a fine thing it would be if
we could make this the chief busi
ness of our town!
It behooves every laboring man, or
any man who is working for a salary,
to educate hie child. Those who think
govern those who toil.
It should be the leading ambition of
every generation to give its successor
a position in advance of its own. This
can be done only by imparting to the
young a broad and liberal culture. A
high culture of a few' and dense igno
rance of the many will expose our
institutions and civilization to great
peril.
The times will never grow better
.than they axe now, financially ,and if
you do not educate your children they
will have a harder time than you are
now having.
Parents bestir yourselves and come
to the aid of our school! The enroll
ment of the Davidson is perfectly sat
isfactory. We are full to the brim,
but pupils are not all we need. Wa
need you/r hearty, active and energetic
co-operation. We are going to insist
on punctuality. The tardy boy be
comes the tardy man. The tardy girl,
the tardy woman. Punctuality is a
virtue. We are going to insist on
regularity. How' do you expect the
Pupil to do well at school who is ir
regular in his attendance? Irregu
larity in attendance has blasted the
prospects of many a pupil. We ask
you who patronize this school to con
fer frequently with principal and
teacher concerning the progress and
efficiency of your child.
I believe it critViinal to keep a child
at home or call him from school for
any cause other than one of emer
gency. A day lost can never be made
up. The cause of all the trouble over
non-promotion and misunderstanding
between teacher and pupil is the lack
or attention and attendance. We may
not know it, but it is nevertheless
true, that the unseen things of Ilfs
are more precious than the seen. Ev
erywhere throughout His works, God
assigns a precedence to the things
which may not be seen over those
which appear. All the sublime that
is spread out before us In plane, moun -
tain, and ocean, yield In dignity and
importance to Faith, Hope and Love,
which make a universe of every hu
man heart. The Davidson school Is
a good thing. Support it.

Outsiders thought of their policies and

One day Champ Clark, the Speaker of

GOSSIP OF THE
SCHOOLS
Basketball practice has now been
started at the Tubman High school and
the girls are getting in trim for some
fast games this winter.
The work of installing the new do
mestic science equippment at the Hood's
Arbor school was finished last Friday
and regular work will be begun at the
school this week. Twenty-four of the
oldest pupils An the school are select
ed to take the course In domestic Science
and these are divided into two classes,
the smaller ones taking either cooking
or sewing and the larger ones taking
both sewing and cooking.
While Miss Flynn, of the Tubman’s
faculty is away at Brevard, N. C.. im
proving her health, Miss Louise Wells, !
Is filling her chair. Miss Flynn has
-.een away for two weeks and It Is learn
ed that it will be some time yet before
sire is sufficiently convalescent to re
turn.
Mr. Jordan H. Sanford, principal of
the Davidson Grammar school, is train
ing his hoys in the work of caneing.
Chair bottoms .are bertng recovered and
the boys are fond of the work. They
are progressing nicely and their work is
splendid.
There are now over eight, hundred
pupils at the John Mil ledge school in
West End and it is being seriously con
sidered to take In another teacher a«
the present faculty have about as much
as they can do with such a large num
ber. Prof. A. F. Otis, the principal is
pleased with the work which is being
accomplished by the pupils this year and
believes it to be the beat year they have
ever had at the John Milledge.
The teachers of all the public schools
of the city are especially anxious that
their pupils be regular in tholr attend
ance. It is conceded to be one of the
main in conducting a school
successfully to have the pupils come reg
ularly and it Is decidedly better for
the pupil for he keeps up with .his class
in his studies.

Mr. C. K. Brooks,

IH*ar Sir:
Perhaps it will interest you to know
that I have been ruptured six years and
have always had trouble with it till l
got your Appliance. It Is very easy to
wear, fits neat and snug, ami is not In
the way at any time, day or night, in
fact, at times 1 did not know 1 had it on;
It Just adapted itself to the shape of
the body and seemed to tie a part of the
body, as It clung lo the spot, no matter
what position 1 was In.
It would be a veritable God-aend to
the unfortunate who suffer from rup
ture if all could procure the Brooks
Rupture Appliance and wear it. They
would certainly never regret It.
My rupture is now all healed up .and
nothing ever did It but your Appliance.
Whenever the opportunity presents It
self 1 will say a good word for your
Appliance, and also the honorable way
in which you deal with ruptured peo
ple. It is a pleasure to recommend a
good thing among your friends or

Ten Reasons Why
You Shouid Send For Brook 9 Rupture
Appliance.
I. It is absolutely the only Appli
ance of the kind on tie- market today,
and in It are embodied the principles
that inventors have sought after for
years.
The Appliance for retaining the
rupture cannot be thrown out of posi
tion.
3. Being an air cushion of soft rub
ber it clings closely to the body, yet
never blisters or causes irritation.
A. Unlike the ordinary so-called
pads, used in other trusses, it is not
cumbersome or ungainly.
It Is small, soft and pliable, and
positively cannot be detected through
the clothing.
The soft, pliable bands holding
the Appliance do not give one the un
pleasnnt sensation of wearing a har
ness.
7. There la nothing about it to got
foul, and when it becomes soiled it.
cm be washed without injuring it. In
the least.
K. There are no metal springs in
the Appliance to torture one by cut
ting and bruising the Mesh.
9. ah of the material of which the
Appliances arc made is of the very
best that money can buy, making It a
durable and safe Appliance to wear.
10. My for honesty .and
