DIXIE HIGHWAY IS TO GO THROUGH DONALDS I The citizens of Donalds recently [ met to decide whether or not they! were willing to sacrifice some of their shade trees for the purpose of allowing the Dixie highway to go through the town. An overwhelming majority voted for the cutting of the trees, and giving the highway the right of way. A vote of 31 to 4 was declared as a result of the meeting. DUFF CLAMP SAYS IT Col. McDuffie Clamp, farmer and nhilosonher. was here Saturday. He mt- x ' ? got into a crowd of poor downtrodden farmers who were bewailing their unfortunate plight under the reign of the boll weevil. Duff listened the thing through and then remarked that, "I aint a-skeered of them bollweevile, the ones what gits me is these here two legged white j boll weevils what cuts the cotton on j the street; they bore for the per j cent." i A GROSS OVERSIGHT. J Son Bill thinks that the Spartan-1 burg Journal is not what it is cracked up to be. Last Friday the Abbeville High School team played its first' game of football and cleaned up the j Elberton team by a score of 21 to 6.! Saturday night Bill looked the Journal over and then remarked in an amazed manner, "Well, there's noth-' ing in there about our foot ball game." This was.a gross oversight and the' Journal should hereafter publish the news. i I METHODIST TRAINING SCHOOL.1 .

Miss Grace Killings-worth, Supt. of Teacher Training, will give a course on Junior work. The classes are held after 6 o'clock making it possible for those who work and students in the schools to attend. The first class period will begin about 6:15 and last for 50 minutes. After about an hour for supper, there will be a second class period of 50 min- ' utes. All Sunday school teachers and prospective teachers should take one of these courses.

E. Peele. Is * DEATH OF ELI BOWIE i Eli Bowie died suddenly at Don- < aids Friday, September 17th, in his < 82nd year. His body ws laid to rest 1 at Greenvale church Saturday at 11 o'clock, the funeral services being ^ . conducted by Rev. J. M. Dallas. Mr. Bowie has been a victim of heart trouble for a number of years, , but his death was unexpected. He had just alighted from the Southern train at Donalds after a visit to relatives when he was stricken. Eli Bowie was a son of the late James P. Bowie, of Long Cane township, and was a brother of H. 1 W. (Doc) Bowie, formerly of Abbe- J ville. He was of the numerous fami- . ly of that name in that section. For a good many years he has resided near Donalds, and since the death of his wife, he has made his homej' with his son, J. R. Bowie, at Shoals Junction. Mr. Bowie was a member of the J Greenvale Presbyterian church. He j was a veteran of the War Between ! the States, having been a member of the Seventh S. C. Infantry. 1 STORES CLOSED The stores of Rosenberg Mercantile Company and D. Poliakoff will be closed Wednesday of this* week on account of Jewish holiday. Persons having business with either of ihese stores will take notice accordingly. MAKING LIGHTNING John Hunter, who resides on the Chapman place, near Long Cane cemetery, was captured by Deputy Sheriff Cann Saturday as he was in the act of making "a run." He had about five gallons of mash in an improvised still which he was cooking on his stove when the officer arrived. John will now find how much it costs to break the law. I ' I POOR HOUSE TOM v v The editor of the paper drove around the circle Sunday morning, going out the road towards the ^ Shops and coming in on the Poor House road. As we were coming in-1. to town we struck up with Tom, who informed us that he was on his "v^ay | ,v to preach at Mt. Pleasant, andjj would like a lift. He got in the car and about the I I c first thing he told us was, "Steven- j; son is out." "Kellar is in." ^ We asked him if M-r. Haddon; I o would stay at the county farm withj them still, to which Tom replied, I I o "all. out, don't want Wardlaw back."jc We inquired the trouble with j Wardlaw, and Tom told us that! i r Wardlaw "cussed too much." I, II "Is Kellar old or young," Tom asked us. J When told that Kellar was young, Tom said, "He won't do, he won't j mind." j j "Kellar will have to work," Tomi i told us. "If he don't I'll turn him i off," he added. "I'm too old to work," ' was the next information, "but Kellar, he got to work, if he don't I'll be up to J see you and Perrin, you are the j, bosses of the Court House, ain't j r you,". Tom asked, adding, "You has; < been there long enough to be the j { bosses." ' i ] From all of which it appears to us i r that Kellar is going to get up be-' j fore day and eat breakfast by lamp-1 j light in matters pertaining to the county farm ,else he will not have ( the approval of Tom.

Openly Sold In More Than A Thousand Places. . t Washington, Sept. 19.?Vast b quantities of liquor are being smug- c ?led over the Canadian border into t New York state and thence into r New York city, according to state- o ments made here today. v So great is the traffic that the thousand or more places in New York where whiskey is more or less i openly sold are no longer dependent t upon releases from bonded ware- j a houses but cap be supplied in large j part through these smuggled stocks, j a In admitting that the border be-! t tween Canada and New York state C > contains many "holes" so far as prohibition enforcement is concerned, Prohibition Commission Kramer said today. "The assertions that liquor is beng smuggled into New York from Tanada is substantially correct. At :he present time I cannot say just iow great this traffic is. It is obviously difficult to patrol the great stretch of territory included in the Canadian border. "We have agents at the principal >oints of entry from Canada to the Jnited States. But obviously the Canadian customs officials charged vith the inspection of vehicles and >aggage must share responsibility 'or effective enforcement of the >rohibition law. "The border problem is one of the nost difficult we have to solve. Vhile it is unquestionable that nany rum runners have gotten by ve have captured a large number of ehicles and confiscated large quanities of liquor on the New Yorkvvrvnrjrtx i? vrvo^lan an Will ^auauiau uv/iuci. jjAyoncavv nm each us. how to make the border atrol more effective, if we succeed n getting an appropriation from he next congress sufficient to proide adequate enforcement of the aw. "Only enemies of prohibition ould seize upon the fact that iquor is being smuggled into the Jnited States along the vast extent f the Canadian border from Vanouver to the Atlantic, a great part if which is semi-wilderness, to indiate that enforcement of the law is lot practical. Prohibition enforcenent is already effective. It will ?ecome increasingly so." :OX BOOSTS HIRAM JOHNSON IN CALIFORNIA M though They Differ on International Affairs, Cox and Johnson Agree on Dongestic Problems Nominee Asserts. Sacramento, Cal., Sept. 17.?In an iddress here today opening his Cali'ornia campaign, Governor Cox, of Dhio, Qemccratic presidential candilate praised Senator HiraAi Johnson, Republican,as an exponent of profressivism and again flayed "big busness" and Republican leaders sup jorting senator Harding. Although they differ fundamentally >n the League of Nations, '.Governor Hox said he admired Senator Johnson :or frankness and lack of ambiguity >r hypocrisy. "He and I do not agree on interaaional policies," said Governor Cox to t large theatre audience at a noon neeting. "bac I respect tho man for lis candor. "I have looked .with admiration on he fight which he has made i.hrouout he years against reaction. He fought t with Roosevelt and he * continued :onsistently the contest which began n 1912, through the primaries and he convention of 1920 jusc as Rooserelt would have done.

"Eight yearp ago Col. Roosevelt harged that the nomination was nade by reactionary forces in defi,nce of the rank and file as expressd in the primaries. In 1920 preisely the same thing\was done and Senator Johnson was humiliated the ame as Col. Roosevelt. "I am unable to see by what proess of reasoning the political party rbich has given to Boss Barnes of Jew York a distinct status of leaderhip in this campaign can expect the irogressive friends of Theodore loosevelt and Hiram Johnson to give t support. Barnes was the captain- of he pirate ship. "Never were so many obligations o designing interests being assumed iy the party of reaction as in this ampaign. Under the belief that disurbed conditions following the war lake political victory certain, meth>ds are followed unblushingly and without concealnment."
