Queen Mab. HIS WEDDING WORSE THAN WAR. This Drummers Experience far Worse Than Sherman's Def initionInteresting Epi- Maybe Sherman was right, but you couldn't make William Hew itt, a traveling salesman out of Nashville, believe it. ' TTmu4- b-nnroa there's some. - lot WOrse than war, for last he passed through it -only last week,' He got married and then u nfn t.hft "friendly" hands of a bunch of brother travelers on the way back to town. : At Fayetteville recently, wheq Hewitt marched down- the isle of the Methodist church to hearKev J. W. Cherry, say the words that made Miss Katberinfe Madden t)is untifdeath do them part; things were looking , rosey' enough toi him until be noticed the entire amen": corner- was gulled ; witn I'd rummers.' There was big arum mei'S, ilttie uiuuiuicio, . ed drummers,' lbng;haired drum-; mere, fat and lean drummers, nave WA ha seen so many grip- toters at one and the .same place and at the same time in his life. Until that minute he hadnt real ized that there were half -so many drummers on earth. ' And eyery one' of them was grinning mean and devi)ish grins that meant something was going to happen. It wasn't getting married ' that scared, Hewitt-itwas that aray of sun-scared faces, , - . Some of those faces were fa- mill I ft 1 SOlYlft of them the groom y gode. hefore.v. But na i knew, the moment hi laid eyes on them, that they were, mem bers of bis craft. ' The wedding went off as nice ly as pie not a bobble, not a slip anywhere. Only those awful, di abolical mugs spread out before him like goblins in the night. , When it was all over, Hewitt patted himself on the back, so to speak. Maybe the boys were just there to congratulate him, af ter all.NYes, maybe they were and maybe not. Anyway, noth ing happened; and the next train found Mr. Hewitt and the new Mrs., Hewitt nicely fixed in a chair car, Nashville bound.' Hewitt looked about him. Ev erywhere, anywhere his gaze fell, it rested upon ; a drummer. The only difference in this crowd t n3 the one at the wedding was that this one was larger. And Mey were all looking in tne same ; di rectiontoward : the bride and grboni grinning, forever grin ning 'No doubt about it, Jier man was op against a cinch. ; Down the road a piece was a little-station. And it was here that real trouble started. A beau tiful young lady got on the train. Just.anvbody could see .she had sametbing on her mind. She looked all around : about spied Hewitt; What happened beggars knees at ; the groom's side and plead for a reason for his desert-. ins her. Her heart was broken, she said. Oh, how could he have done Ml Tlewit- was struck1 dumb. , His feet slipped and slid, and jerked uo and down on- the" floor. "- Out of his little brides eyes there was shooting shafts of fire. . Imagine mo lunn if unn run. lint VOU VlJ O W V. . J . vwu. ... can't and there's no use trying. It but and His bis the bride did not know it, the groom was helpless, tencrue clove to the roof of mouth. This was bad, but it was only two miles to - the next station. Here a big, burley fellow got on the train. And he was mad. He walked through the car and back again, lie was hunting some body. Lordyl Hewitt saw the steely glitter in bis eyes as they gripped and held him. The big man came forward slowly, toying with Hewitt's emotions as a kit ten toys with a baby mouse. What could it be this time? " 'They tell me you've just mar ried?" roared the giant. Hewitt did not answer. His silence gave consent. , And then the big fellow who looked mean coming down the car, looked a thousand times meaner. He straightened up till he almost touched the roof; then came down again till his hot, angry breath struck the groom full in the face. Hewitt will , never for get that speech. Every crime in the calender that could be men tioned in a mixed audience was charged to him. It was . all the old man could do to keep from jumping on the groom and grind ing him into dust. He would sue him ten million years or get redress. v Hewit had never seen the traducer of his life, but he knew the score or more of drum- . -- , , . ....-. mera packed arouna mm were responsible. Down deep in his heart there was a mighty resolve he would some day get sven, and his vengence would be great and sweet. He knew better than to start anything here, because the gang would be harder on him if they could. It was a long ridelto Nashville and many things happened; so many things, in fact, that Hewitt will never forget it to his dying day. When the? ro.led .into the Nashville yafds the other drum mers crowed around the newly- weds and extended their first con gratulations. They told them all about it; and they secured the brides forgivness, when they told her that Hewitt was the best old scout on earth, and those awful experiences they had so recently passed through had been framed up just to make him. Buffer. And Hewitt -well, he said it was alright. The Most Import ant Thing In various periodicals the writ er has seen discussed lately the subject of education , in almost every aspect and from almost every view point; some writers emphasizing one thing and others laying stress on others as being t.hn nil imnrtrtant thlC2 in our Public School System; but most agree that the teacher is of all the most important. , In a system of education as complex as ours, it would be difficult to point out trom all he important things the one of most importance, my opi nion is that' as we approach the people the importance oi our school machinery becomes more and more important. In this article we will say nothing of the importanceOf any . school officer until we come down to the town ship attendance officer, I fear this officer understimates altogether tio uqIup of his Dosmon. It is or him to find out in the - place all children of s,chot ag .n he.township assigning each, one was a frame op or course, to his proper district, and then to see to it that each one attend . the public school as provided by law, should he fail in his first duty, then it will be impossible for other officials and teachers to perform their several duties. Then comes the 'district commit' tee for its share of responsibility, which is invariably underestima ted, both bv these officials as well as the people of the district. If the teacher is the most impor tant thing connected with, the whole system, which most critic and writers say is the case; then the school committee comes in for a large share of responsibility ejther for success or failure of every Public School, because they are the only power in our sys tem of looking out and employ ing the teachers; hence their im portance is very manifest even to a dull observer, not only this but they are the custodians of the school propepty and grounds at all times and should be men who are willing to give of their time and money for the benefit of their school, thes. the teacher comes in as a cog in the machin ery that no official or any other agency can supplant. The teach er fills his own place, and if not well filled, the school ''will to a greater or less extent be a failure.' The time is forever gone when the duties of the teacher done when the routine of school room , excerises and recitations from thn pages are oyery-Ther of 1. the present ana future must be equipped, not only with a knowl edge of the text to. be thought in '. the classes; but they must bn ircharged with the spirit of the times, and clive to ever progress ive movement of the age. Infact they must study the very best present time methods of doinr things and be able to impart thi knowledge, not only to the stu dents under their charge, but to so force them on the adults of the district, thatthey will never again be content with anything short of a first class teacher, After all that can be said of the attendance of officers, School Committee and teacher, in thi best analysis the CHILD is tht all important factor for which all officers and all teachers are brought upon the stage of action to accomodate, if there are V children at the desks all plans and executions of plans fall, f lac and the whole system a failure. And right here the fathers ami mothers of the children come in for their share 6f responsibillity. Now as we all have responsibil ties and as school began August, 3rd, let us realize to the , ver. fullest what we owe the helpless children of Madison County and by our presence when needed at the school, by our money and our influence for. harmony a 1 1 strive together this year for th - greatest success ever known in educational development in our county. Respectfully, J. R. Sams. OARDON NOTICE.
