i GOVERNOR TO RECOMMEND
SOME RADICAL CHANGES

_ Central Control for Colleges and
j Penal Institutions.
} Radical legislation, involving the
t abolition's of certain state departt
ments wlil be recommended by Gov5
ernor Cooper to the next general as3
sembly, which convenes in January.
I Governor Copper^ said today that he
.proposed recommending to the legislature
the abolition of the boards of
.> the various penal institutions and the
a creation in their stead of one central
control body, and also the repeal of
_ I all special school district legislation
! and the enactment in its place of one.
f statute covering all such special dis- ]
1 {tricts, which would put them under
a the control of the state board of edu.
cation.
f
The governor's plan is to recom9
mend the abolition of the board of
j directors of the state penitentiary,
r the board of the state hospital, the
k boards of the various reformatories.
His idea is to have in place of them
s one board of control, which would
1 administer the affairs of all the penal
institutions,
j "With regard to the educational mf
stitutions, the governor's idea is that
suggested by him to the legislature
last year, for the appointment of one
I central board .of trustees to take the
g place of the boards of the various
schools. This would mean the abolition
of the boards of trustees of the
University of South Carolina, of Winj
throp college, of Clemson college, of
j. the Citadel and possibly other educational
institutions, such as the Medij
cal college of Charleston, and the
i School for the Deaf and Blind, at
, Spartanburg.

I I think it is the grandest mfedicine in
the world and I can heartily recommend
it to anyone who suffers from
the complaints. I had," was the emphatic
endorsement of "The Master
Medicine" given by Mrs. Lizzie L.v3
son, of Piedmont, S. C., May 9, 1917.
"When I began taking Tanlac," continued
Mrs. Bryson, "I was so weak
and broken down I could hardly keep
! out of bed. I had no appetite, I could
j not rest soundly, and I was nervous to
! kill.
'j "The Tanlae gave me back my
. health and strength, though. I soon
i
had a fine appetite, my nerves became

every way. In a week the Tanlac had

further than this suggestion of lOi.l
year. It would also include the present
state hoard of education as part
of the central board of education.
The single board would have charge
of the higher educational institutions i
and also the public school system, j
providing one central state. education J
commission.
The governor's purpose is to ere- i
ate a central body, for the elimination
of possible friction and possible ;
overlapping of effort on the part of J
the present boards of trustees. This
| would also be in line with the ideas
| held by the governor when he re!
cently called a meeting of the heads
of the state institutions for the purpose
of conferring as to methods of
cooperation between the various
schools.
With regard to special school districts,
the governor s purpose is to
ask repeal of all special acts giving
certain school districts legal powers
and control over schools not now under
the jurisdiction of the state board
of education. He would have enacted
one statute covering all such districts
and putting them under the control

ADVERTISING.
'
"It's just as easy for you to eat |
enougn in one oay to iusl yuu u, ?ccn.
as it is for the business man to advertise
enough in one week to last
him a year." This is from the Roanoke
Xews, published at Weldon, N.
C., and is a point that many a business
man should take home. The old
idea that "everybody knows where
the store is and there's no need to advertise"
is a dead letter, and the man
who gets the most for the money he
nuts into newsnar>er sDace is the man
who uses that space constantly. "The
busneiss man who thinks he is like a
camel," continues the Weldon paper,
"and can make a long- journey across
the desert of business on one spurt of
advertising, will find himself very dry
long before he has reached the first
oasis."

as follows: .
"Some business men confine their
advertising- to the sort defined by that
newspaper. They advertise one day
and skip another or perhaps, wait a
week or a month, and then they are j
back in the papers again, a sort of j
hit-or-miss proposition. The first i
value of advertising is in keeping the !
attention of the public immovably
fixed upon the thing advertised, either !
the goods or the name of the firm,
and when this is done constantly and
without variance, advertising is profitable.
It is those who try it out once
in a while, stop for a season and then ,
make another attempt, who gain but
little from the publicity they pur- j
chase. The efficient, profitable way to
advertse is to do it constantly.''?
