GEORGIA BEHIND P. C. It is highly gratifying to the friends of Presbyterian college to learn of the interest being manifested in the insti tution by the Presbyterians in Geor gia. Last fall, it will be recalled, the Georgia synod pledged its support to the college and one after another, the presbyteries ratified the action. The last official b'ody to pass on the ques tion, Atlanta presbytery, acted favor ably at its spring meeting last week and this fine attitude of interest and helpfulness will be a great stimulant to the college. With Georgia now united with our own state in pledging its support to Presbyterian college, a brighter day lies ahead and unprecedented pros pects for progress and growth are now in view. Georgia has shown a fine, helpful spirit and President McSween is to be congratulated on what he has ac complished. Through his untiring ef forts and unselfish service, the col lege’s sphere of usefulness ^s_to be -T T- , 1 ... ! nancing the project have suffered a relapse. The legality question of the $230,000 appropriation provided for the road by the delegation at its past session has been raised from the view point of bond buyers. And we are fur ther told that there is an undecided legal question between the state high way department and the county af fecting the anticipated interest rate. This means that for the present at least, the Clinton-Kinard route will not be paved and that the missing link of the state’s main highway will con tinue to be neglected. The road continues a nightmare. PRESIDENT SHOWS HAND Solicitor J. Lyles Glenn of Chester, I warm personal friend of President I Hoover, gets the new judgeship ap- ipointment in this state and his selec- 1 tion by the White House seems to have given universal satisfaction, i It will be recalled that the fight for . this additional judge was lead through j the senate by Senator Blease almost single handed. When he was unable to get the bill through, he held up a ibt of similar appointments in other states in the clostng hours of the last session of congress and finally suc ceeded in getting his bill through by using the “whip” over the heads of his colleagues. The new federal job created, Blease at once announced his support of Congressman Dominick, political friend and former law partner, for ^e place. Several members oJ_ the. suit will be an effort to have Mr. Sut ton come to Charleston to iddress and advisee with parent-teacher associa tions. A Charlestonian, active in par ent-teacher activities, expressed confi dence that teachers and parents would receive benefits from a conference with Mr. Sutton. Teachers who strive to understand the individuals in their classes usually discover the cause of a bright lad’s apparent failure and where the lad is brought to see the error of his ways a better student is the result. Corporal punishment is not a remedy for some delinquencies. If the boy feels that he is unfairly used, a hurtful antagonism is produced. Mr. Sutton’s argument is that morale and discipline are related. W'^here the morale is high, discipline is more easily enforced. publican fold in the senate. Senator Reed, Republican, Pennsylvania, a^ leader in the “regular” Republican ranks there, is prepared to lead a fight against the executive’s propos al for repeal of the national origin’s clause of the immigration act and al so against the sharp limitation which he desires on tariff limitation. The Republican members of the house ijays and means committee, meanwhile, are rounding out their draft of the tariff revision bill in CHANGE MADJ; IN CIRCLE MEETINGS The Auxiliary of the First Presby terian church will meet on Monday, the 13th of May, instead of the ^h, in order to avoid a conflict with the Chautauqua. The circles will meet on Monday, the 6th of May. closed sessions and expect to have the measure ready for consideration by the house as soon as it dieposes of the farm bill. FARM RELIEF TO BE PUSHED Both Sides of Capitol To Spend Week Debating the .\IcNary Measure- President’s Views Considered. Washington, April 22.—Farm relief claimed overwhelmingly predominat ing attention on both sides of the cap- itol today as congress entered the sec ond week of its special session. Not only had President Hoover’s declaration against the export deben ture plan focused interest on this sub ject, but the house had reached the last day of its general-debate on a arm relief bill whieh meets bis views in Georgia will contribute their part in this forward-reaching educational movement. Golf is like life: The interesting courses are the ones with the most bunkers. W’hen a man asks your advice you should immediately try to find out what he wants to do, and then govern yourself accordingly. There are two sides to every hap- j pening and issue, and debt is no ex- [ ception to the rule. In one direction | debt leads to prosperity and plenty but in the opposite direction it ar rives at worry and want. In his characteristic style, Blease denies that he contributed five hun dred dollars to the Republican cam paign fund in South Carolina. If he did, was anybody foolish enough to ex- peat him to own it? People who have charm are the ■ones who listen wpll, who seem very much interested in what we have to say, and who seek few opportunities to put forth their own opinions. To have charm is to have a real and ear nest interest in others. A Rhode Island red hen is said by its Washington owner, to have laid 80 eggs in 80 consecutive days. Be lieve it or not, but this barnyard tale is referred to our friend, Mr. C. C. Bai-; ley, expert local poultry fancier, for i investigation beyond a reasonable STILL A NIGHTMARE For a long, long time, we wouldn’t attempt to say how long, the Clinton- Kinard road has been in the limelight. Columns upon columns have been written about it, explanations too nu merous to count have been offered, and pleading in Columbia for this pro ject has been one of the orders of the day. There have been promises, all of which have been broken, that this missing link would be paved after this section protested vigorously against a wasting of money by surface treat ing. And to think that all of this has amounted to nothing but bunk. The senator from this county has on sev eral occasion killed the bill after it got to his calendar while certain members have contended that they favored go ing ahead with the work. If there has ever been any legislative enthusiasm manifested on hard-surfacing this link, we haven’t observed it, and we doubt that anyone else has. But this “still” opposition faded away last summer on the eve of the election and we were promised by the delegation that the road would be paved early this year. It now appears that a monkey wrench has again been thrown into the machinery. We are informed from the county seat that further postpone ment of the project may be expected. It is stated that the “whole thing” is now tied up and that the plans for fi- threw their support to Mr. Dominick and they thought they had the plum for him when the surprise word came from the president that Mr. Glenn was the winner. President Hoover by his decision, broke up the whole play house of Blease. Evidently, the chrds were not properly slacked when the new job was created, and the man picked to fill it. WITH THE PRESS The Teacher and the Boy (From The News and Courier) If a teacher is to benefit boys he must be in sympathy with them, said Willis A. Sutton, of Atlanta, special ist in boy psychology, in his address before the district conference of Ro tary International in Orangeburg. A ! teacher can not achieve results if he i is out of temper or arbitrary. He needs ; to understand the boys in his class, j Speaking out of his own experience, j Mr. Sutton said that when a class of ; high school boys was showing a high percentage of failures, he would talk ■ intimately and as a friend with indi- ; viduals, encouraging them to do bet- I ter, never tongue-lashing them. If a 1 boy who can do well is backward in a I .subject, Mr. Sutton said, there is a I symptom of a lack of understanding •between boy and taecher. I Parents, impressed with the sound- ' ness of Mr. Sutton’s reasoning, dis cussed his suggesiton eagerly. A re- a discussion of its measure. As the principal piece of legislation recommended by President Hoover, both chambers are giving farm relief right of way. The house plans to pass its bill Wednesday or Thursday, but the senate, operating under rules which do not permit such definite lim itations on discussion, is expected to require several weeks for consider ation of the proposal. Although the president’s declara tion is counted on to prevent adoption of the debenture provision by the sen ate and thereby forestall a serious disagreement between the chambers on this issue, the first week of the session has clearly pointed to difficul ties in prospect over proposals on the administration program. The disagreements appear to be brewing most actively w’ithin the Re- DRS.

THE MOST IMPORTANT PART OF A TIRE IS THE PART YOU CAN’T SEEI It is hard to unders|,and why one tire is better than another, judging by looks or the first thousands of miles of service. But after you’ve thumped and hammered your tires for months ,the hidden part of a tire, the most important factor in determining life and mileage—then reveals its worth. It is the body, concealed under the tread, and composed of plies of cord fabric. This body absorbs the blows a tire gets. It bends millions of times, under the car’s weight, to cushion your riding. How many times the cords will flex and recover, or how they will stretch without breaking, dteermines their usefulness. PLAY SAFE! BUY GOODYEARS! McDaniel Vulcanizing Works R. P.

Marion Talley, world-famous prima donna, is retiring from' her opera, c career and going to the farm, she .says, because she wants the great pleasure of seeing things grow. Just wait ’til the boll weevils be^in to strut. The money spent every year in the United States for non-essentials ex ceeds that expended for the bare ne^ cessities of life. This disparity may ^account for the fact that life is sweet er in this country than in any other civilizeJ place on this planet and that the stream of human migration is America bound. GUI DEPOSTS TO ^happiness By Bernarr Mdcf^dden / ^ The*truth of the matter is that the man who patronizes the bootlegger and encourages him in his violation of the law is just as much an enemy to society and good government as the bootlegger himself. When an awak ened public conscience understands this, there will be improvement over present deplorable conditions. There are two phases of life unfa vorable to peace and comfort, the one is adversity, the other prosperity. It is hard to tell in which a man is more discontented with himself and more offensive to others. When he is down his friends wish him up on their own account; when he is high up they sigh for mountains to fall on him and bu^y him out of sight. I ATTRACTING LOVE - i i Sometimes it is called “charm,”! sometimes “personality.” A more re- • j cent term for it is, “It.” But the thing that suddenly makes a boy realize that the girl with whom he has grown i up is no longer his playmate, but his! sweetheart, is really physical magne tism—the most important phase of at traction between a man and woman. It is the divine force from which love evolved. But unfortunately all the girls are not born with a sufficient amount of this magnetism. It’s like curly hair — you either have it or you don’t. How then can one acquire such a W’onder- , ful force-^and make no mistake; it can be acquired! To acquire your full quota of mag- jnv.
