Creamery Expert lIn connection with the address of c Dr. Poe, Mr. C. G.

Mr. Mathis, the genial manager, evinced pleasure at having the ladies visit the plant and left no stone unturned in his effort to make the visit both pleasant and instructive. The sanitary laundry is' a great institution and any community is fortunate in having such an one, with a manager who understands his business as thoroughly as does Mr. Mathis. One of the main features to the outward view was the spirit of order and cooperation which seemed to prevail throughout the entire plant. The visit was an entirely unexpected one to the manager,, so things appeared in their ordinary every day manner. Mr. Mathis tells us that he does not take in.any garmens or work from a home Where- there *is a contagious disease, unless they have first been fumigated, although he states the health officers here are not as particular about this matter-as they are in other cities. Every class of work is carried on in the Sanitary laundry of Newberry ?dying, cleaning, both dry and steam. Hats are cleaned arid blocked. In fact almost anything in one's home can be sent to theJaundry and will be cleaned and handled in a most sanitary manner. \\T a in r\r*Ar>OC C nf Kr?_ TT C OcV >v pui utico in yi \s a. w\.ing dyed and all of the work was exceedingly interesting, and the best part of it all is that it costs no more to have your washing done there than by an ordinary washwoman. The clothes come home clean and free from unhealthy germs. If you wish your entire wash back home the same day as sent in to the laundry, all you nave to ao is can Mr. lviatnis .oeiore 10:00 o'cock in the .morning and \ie will have it back to you by night. Another thing, if a garment is lost the management makes it good and in any case where work is not up to fVio ct-ijnriuvrl ?T i= rir?np flVPV witVimifc argument. Another feature of the laundry is that they will call at your home and weigh your washing so you will knew iust what it will cost before it leaves the house. A family wash is done for ten cents per pound?this includes everything in the line of fiat clothing. It does not include stiff collars, heavy trousers, lace curtains, quilts, suits or brankets. All of these articles go through another process and are charged for at moderate prices. To give you an idea of weight for clothing?a sheet averages one half pound, an average wash weighs fifteen pounds, which would, of course, amount to $1.50. There are some garments that should not be sent to the laundry feecause in going through the process necessary for their sanitary cleaning they are certain to shrink. All housekeepers know that flannels and silk underwear should not be subject to boiling, nor should they have hard I U'OUillg. Mr. Mathis keeps one woman whose duty it is to hand-wash certain fabrics that can not 'be subjected to the harsher treatment. There is what is called a "damp wash." This is where the clothing is washed, ready to be starched and ironed, but not dried. This is done ? - flmw,rx V VI TllOVO 1 si 1UI 1J \ r llTlllO ^UiiU.

I V * Greenwood Index-Journal. | Greenwood people who recall the address at the 1920 -Chautauqua of Hon. Leslie M. Shaw, former secre^ +i*.. n",lov RiinsP. liiry ui inv unuv-i <.vvwv volt will road with Interest, or should seme good, plain, common-sense observations of his at a recent dinner in New York city. "This seems to be a generation of 'get-mores'," said Mr. Shaw, "ine question that seems uppermost in young people's minds nowadays is, how can I get more money, how can I find a short-cut to wealth? If more than the legitimate fee for a service or profit from an undertaking is to be obtained, they are all for it. What we need to teach the .younger gener ation is how to put more into life, not hew to get mere out of it. ! "Yet the idea of thrift seems furthest from their minds. The whole | sentiment among young people is not !to accumulate savings, and thrift is considered stinginess. There is only one infallible rule for success, and that is?can a man live within his income? A man who spends all of his income for living expenses is never going to succeed." ! The evils of a pateralistic central government was another tendency of the present day seen by Mr. Shaw. "The function of government is not to give old-age pensions," he went on. "We are rapidly drifting in the direction of having our federal government care for eveybody, in a spirit of mistaken charity, instead of leaving a free rein to individual initiative and the opportunity of every man to carve out his own destiny. Do you want to hold by your inalienable right and do your own work, whether it is running a railroad or boring for oil, or do you want your government to say, 'Here, you may lose money?let us 'bore your well for you'? If we pur sue our present course in which we 1 are headed, our young men in a few years will 'be expecting the government to come around every morning with a milk bottle and give each of them four swallows. That's not what ,we made America for." Growing boys are not being taught the meaning of a day's work and the j value of a dollar as they were in the old days, Mr. Shaw thought. It was not the country's illiterates who were sleeping in the parks with newspapers for a mattress, but those whose par1 - ??u;? +1,0+ enus Kept mem irom wuxamg m?u they might get an education. i "But I'm not against education, mind you," said the speaker. "I believe in it, but the young man must be taught that he must work for what ho trpf-s:* that this world keeps a one "v price store, with no bargain counters." j Met Father's Boat Pat Murphy was a great favorite in the works. Even his employer would sometimes stop and crack a joke with him. i One day the boss met Pat. "Morning, Pat," he said, "I hear that lately you've taken quite a fancy for the girls." | Pat blushed and sniggered. "Have you met your fate yet?" asked the boss. "Sure and begorroh, sir," exclaimed Pat sadly. "I met one of her father's shoes last noight." ! It has just 'been discovered that 1921, when added together, make 13. No wonder we had so much bad luck last year. i i ;?:?r Mathis did not give us tne price for this work. ! At present the business of the laundry is on the up-grade, but Mr. Mathis states that since he has been here he has received a large number of new customers and that when he first came here the out of town customers .fully equalled the number in Newber'ry. He has now something over four hundred customers, but feels that he should have double that number. It takes a very small additional expense to take care of three or four hundred more customers than the number they now Tiave, and it is hoped that the good people of Newberry win iau in line and patronize this instituton, for indeed it is an enterprise that every citizen should feel justly proud of. | Agatha A.

Some important measures are to be c 1 A'KntViic urar>\r Tn tVio VinilSP t.hp f Ut H.io ?? VV*k. *4* V.>V .. w ?.~v I luxuries tax measure and the railroad t 'commission bill are to come up for s debate, and there will likely 'be a b fierce battle waged over each. k i The luxury tax bill will put a tax f cn movies, drinks, tobaccos, silk stock- 1 ings, ammunition, playing cards, per- A fumes, chewing gum and furs. This t is cne of the six big revenue bills in- e troduced by the ways and means com- 1 c mittee. t | The railroad commission bill, iby t Senator Miller, already voted by the fc upper branch, would enlarge the rail- ii read commission to seven members n 'each to receive a per diem to be elected by the legislature. The bill n I was debated long and fiercely in the ! senate and it will drsiw steel in the 3 house. Bad Check Bill 3 The "bad check" bill by Representatives Burnett and Sheppard, to a make it a crime to utter checks on j banks where there are no funds on ? deposit to cover, will also oe up ior debate this week, being set as a spe- 3 cial order. The gasoline tax bill, passed by 2 both branches, cc-mes back to the house for concurrence in the senate * amendment eliminating kerosene arid . providing that half the proceeds shall 2 go to the couties for roads. The tax I 5 on gasoline is fixed at two cents a gal- * . Ion. i I In the senate the corporation lij cense tax is scheduled for-hot debate* I this week. An effort to kill it last i! j week was lost. The final vote will be . taken Wednesday. It has a hard blow ^ , ahead in the senate, though it has al( ready passed the house. Income Tax | The income tax bill, already passed by the house, is on the senate calen- r , dar for second reading. It has met sqme opposition already. I Resolutions to allow the legislature to fix just and equitable systems of raising revenue, and to reduce land assessments twenty-five per cent, are c I on the senate calendar scheduled to draw debate. The timber tax bill ha? been with- a drawn by the author, Senator Wells, j Senator Crosson of Lexington has withdrawn his bill to abolish the tax commission. The revenue measures ^ are the most important on the caleni m 1 i ? 1. Ml aars. rne annual appropriations oiu has not been introduced, and it is said the ways and :means committee, where n this originates, is waiting to see what ^ is to be done with the revenue meas- n ures. The financial program is thought t j by many to be all that is in the way of j. j adjournment and the progress made on these will determine whether or v not the end comes within the forty j. days?though the probability seems I unlikely. c The hydra electric tax bill, another ^ of the revenue measures which will r bring forth long heated arguments, i j 'Jl J 1 _ H !xi I is sxin wiin ine nnance committee. c !Two of the big revenue bills have q passed both branches, the gasoline tax bill and the inheritance tax bill, ^ j but neither of them is in final form.
