NORWOOD, Editor and Prop'r. (Communicated.) -V. A feature in the operation of the rural schools which the present legislature should remedy is the restriction placed upon pupils entering school in districts other than that in which they were enumerated. The moving season always 'occurs after the time at which the school funds for the' year-are apportioned which fact may and no doubt does work a hardship or even a deprivation to pupils required to procure transfers which sometimes for one reason or another are not allowed. Families moving from one district to another should by the rule of averages, which is sufficient for all practical purposes, be permitted freely to enter their, children of school age in the district to which they move without restriction.

hope our representative upon investigation of this matter will deem it of sufficient importance to endeavor to secure such an amendment to the school laws as will remove the restriction-referred to and thus greatly relieve a considerable element of our rural population to whom it is a. needless an FresK Roasted Coffee? bah!

7, 1907. SIX PAGES. Oar School, Several pupils of the ninth grade of the Russellville High school applied for teachers' license at the January examination and the' following have been granted licenses: Misses Richeson, Lina Rich- Josephine Lucile Sib ley, Pearl Petree, Arrie Moody, Susan Britnell, Messrs. Frank Greenhill, Grover, Jordan, A. Nelson, r.

As these pupils are from the ninth grade and as some of them are only fourteen years old, this is a remarkably good showing. We know of no school of like pre tensions that can show such results. Evidently native ability; ambi tion and application are not lack ing among these pupils. Prof. Harmon is an unusually strong school man and has an able corp of assistants.

Their intelligent cooperation added to his skillful and judicious management causes the school to work smoothly and harmoniously and is rapidly bringing it to a high standard of thorough studyship. But there is nothing about the school that is more gratifying than the moral and fi nancial support given it by our 1. citizens. Second grade license was grant John Deere Implements Please the User ed to Misses Pearl Richeson, Lina Richeson and Josephine Key. Not anjuinfxeir Blessing.

My main object was to get the route not the carrier's job. Respectfully, J. T.

Chenault. Anten-Wade. Spruce Pine, Feb. 2. An event around which a great deal of interest centered occurred at the home of Mr.

and Mrs. W. H. Wade on January 30th when their oldest daughter, Addie, was joined in the holy bonds of wedlock to Mr. John- Auten.

Promptly at 10 o'clock the bridal party marched in the parlor where Rev. Mr. Wor-ley in a beautiful and impressive manner said the solemn words which made them man and wife. bride' was lovely gowned in a dress of pure white -taffeta silk and ribbons. Shortly after the ceremony Mr.

and Mrs. Auten left for Springvalley, the home of the groom's parents. Mrs. Auten is the eldest daughter of Mr. andMrs.

W. H. Wade and fs-'a beautiful young lady of many lovely traits of character. Mr Auten is the youngest son of Mr. and Mrs.

Joe Auten and is apopu lar bridge man on the Illinois Cen tral railroad. Mr. and Mrs. Auten have not decided where they will make their future home. It is but idle to wish for the young couple a life of unalloyed bliss for perfect happiness is not attained in this world, but we do wish for them all joys that can be given to mortals and when clouds comes, as come they will, may they be quickley dispelled by the sufl shine of two loving and united hearts.

McCLusKEr, Principal. Three hundred car worker's, painters and others in the car shops of the Georgia Railroad and Charleston Western Carolina railroads in Augusta, Ga went on a strike Friday, demanding -a recognition of the union. The house committee on interstate and foreign commerce has decided to report favorably the Livingston resolution providing for an investigation of the New York Cotton Exchange by the department of commerce and labor. This hvestiatiofl is caused by charges filed with the postmaster by Ilirvie Jsriia, rrtii- Ltzt cf Cotllirn Cc.ion We take, this occasion, at the beginning of our third implement year, to say that, after two successful years of handling the John Deere line of farming tools, we believe it to be the best line for our customers to buy, because FIRST Better goods could not be made. SECOND They have been tested by your neighbors and they can not recommend them too highly.

THIRD-They are built right and will please you. Knowing that they have been used right here at home and have a given such perfect satisfaction we have more confidence in John Deere Implements than ever and we believe that in offering them to our customers we are giving you the best values to be had and at prices as low as honest business methods will justify. t. We have the complete line now in and you will do well to see that i all the farming tdols you buy this year are branded JOHN DEERE the best guarantee to satisfaction. Don't forget vision is not entirely, free from serious criticism as experience is beginning to prove.

In a laudable endeavor to effect a great pecuni-. ary saving to purchasers of school through uniformity of adoption and through competition among publishers, those charged with the selection of our text -books, we fear have gone to the extremity in economy of "penny Wise and pound foolish." JtAtten- tion at present is directed alone to the series of arithmetics (Cook Cropsey's) now in use. Omitting allusion to the questions merely of their mechanical fexcellence, as being of secondary importance. Every teacher will urge the impe-rative necessity of accuracy to the miirates particular in the presenta-. tion of all mathematical tionsaswell as in their solutions.

In this respect these books-are utter-ly disqualified as being notorious ly and inexcusably imperfect and i defective. Considering the ex-: actness of mathematical science :1 from remotest antiquity it is to. be questioned whether very many of the efforts of modern authors to eludicate principles do not -tend vjrather still further to becloud the minds of beginners but that a student of arithmetic who has not yet acquired the faculty for mathematical-reasoning should become prone to believe every problem which does not yield readily a solution corresponding exactly with the answer contained in the book 'must be erroneous because 1 uiiy John Deere Stalk Cutters, Cultivators, Disc Harrows, Plows, Fertilizer Distributors, Section Ibrrows, etc. SEE THE11 U0VI. in numbers instances the teach-Vers have faund actual errors and embarrassed by the ne-.

cessity of a confusion quite as likely to arouse the suspicion of his own incompetency is most unfortunate.
