So delicately blended; so gently
fragrant; so utterly exquisite
are these All-American creations
by Palmer that one naturally
expects to find them many times
more expensive than they are.
But in Palmer products, an
amazing ingenuity has attained
such artistic perfection that the
innate craving for superb quali
ty may now be satisfied at sur
prisingly low cost. A visit to
our store will be productive of
entirely new ideas on what it is
necessary to pay for these inti
mately essential articles:

SOWERS RESIGNS
SHOP POSITION
Retires From Orphanage Staff After
19 Years Faithful Service. To
Open Up-Town Shop.
O. A. Sowers, head of the carpen
try find wood shop at the Thornwell
orphanage, has resigned his position
effective next month. He will move
into his home on Florida street and
open an up-town repair shop in which
he will serve the general public. Mr.
Sowers came to Clinton 19 years ago
from Statesville, N. C., during which
time he has formed hundreds ofl friends
who are pleased to know that he is to
continue to reside here.
Our Monthly of the past month, car
ried the following article on Mr. Sow-
iers’ retirement:
I Mr. 0. A. Sowers Resigns
I “For nineteen years Mr. 0. A. Sow-
i ers has held an important place in the
organization at the orphanage. He has
been in charge of the carpentry and
^ wood shop. Few institutions of the
kind ever had a more faithful or bet
ter workman. It seems to have been
contrary to his very nature to turn out
a shoddy piece of work. What a ^ne
trait and splendid example to set be
fore many who might be inclined to
do slip-shod work. Mr. Sowers is just
near bis three score and ten. His
health has not been vigorous for some
time. So it became necessary to put
on a man who is able to carry the
heavy work on the campus.
‘‘It was the purpose of the board of
trustees to retain him for half time,
giving him the lighter work in the
shop and on half pay. In addition he
was offered the use of th^ shop, ma
chinery and motors that he might do
cabinet work for the community on his
own account.
“Mr. Sowers feels that it will be bet
ter to open up a shop of his own, so
will move into his own home on Flori-
j da street, August the first. We trust
I he may soon become established and
i do well in his work. The orphanage
I is ready to use its influence on Mr.
i Sowers’ behalf. We trust the commu
nity may turn its work to his shop and
that he may do even better than he
expects.”

MACDONALD READS HAZLITT
BRAINS AND SOIL
THE FEAR OF DEATH
A BRAVE COW
This nation, with its annual income
of ninety thousand million dollars,
treats education generously. But the
value of education depends not on
money, but on the brains on which the
education money is spent. A crop de
pends not entirely on the seed, but
more on the soil.
Nearly nine hundred years ago,
when Abelard taught logic and theo
logy to young, men in the University
of Paris, they gathered in wintef-time
in a stone lined room, not heated, tak
ing notes by candle-light.
And many, too poor to pay for can
dles, climbed the church steeple on
bright moonlight nights, to continue
their studies there by moonlight.
A few such students mright be worth
more to the world than a thousand
million dollars of endowment. Edison
gave to the world more money than
wealth has ever given to education.
So did Pasteur. Neither ever went to
college.
KING TRIAL AT CHESTER
Ramsay MacDonald, flying from
Scotland to London in a British bomb
ing plane, a parachute strapped over
his leather flying coat, read Hazzlitt
on the way.
Hazzlit, who worked himself into a
fury over the French revolution, quar
relling with everybody that did not
approve it, little thought that within
100 years of his death, a Socialist La-
borite would be prime minister of
England, without any revolution.
Still less did Hazlitt imagine that a
British Labor prime minister would
fly to his work.
Max D. Steuer, brilliant New York
lawyer, says the best cure for any
man that fears death is Hazlitt’s es
say on death.
Briefly, Hazlitt says that, since we
don’t worry because we were not alive
100 years ago, we should not worry
because we won’t be alive or conscious
a hundred years hence.

family wouldn’t let him talk. A sub
sequent witness, the Rev. E. B. Hun
ter, pastor of the Sharon Associate
Reformed Presbyterian church, told
of his suspicions being aroused by
finding live coals in the kitchen fire
place after King had declared he had
been in bed all day and that there had
been no one else there and that his
examination brought out blood spots
on several places in the kitchen and
also revealed a suit of men’s under
wear which had spots on it.
Dr. Burrus took the witness stand
early in the afternoon. As family phy
sician, he had been called to the King
home several times and was called
there on- the afternoon before Mrs.
King’s body was found. King was in
bed and said he was sick, the physi
cian testified. Dr. Burrus remained
with King almost an hour, declaring
he had been tired and took this oppor
tunity to rest. During the course of his
visit, King told him his wife had be
come angry the day before because
she had to walk home from school.
During the course of the conversa
tion, Dr. Burrus said. King informed
him that Mrs. King had a brother in
Morganton. He also salif lus wife had

UNCLE SAM HAS
GOOD BALANCE
Government’s Finances In Fine Shape
At Close of Fiscal Year. Has
$190,000,000 Left Over.
Washington, June 29.—Uncle Sam
wound up the 1929 fiscal year tonight,
and after a special payment of $45,-
000,000 in favor of railroads for ex
tra mail hauling charges, was approx
imately $190,000,000 on the right side
of the ladger.
Detailed figures for the last two
days of the year will not be compiled
until tomorrow, but data on finances
of the 12 months indicated the follow
ing approximate results:
1— I^blic debt reduction of $846,-
000,000, reducing the public debt to
$16,768,000.
2— Receipts of $4,042,000,000, sub
stantially the same as last yeaik
3— Customs receipts of $601,700,000,
a gain of $32,700,0^0.
4— Income and corporation taxes,
$2,329,700,000, a gain of $156,700,000.
5— Miscellaneous internal revenue,
$606,100,000, a slight loss.
6— Expenditures of $3,848,000,000,
an increase of about $200,000,000.
The outstanding feature of the gov
ernments’ year was the remarkable
collection of income and corporation
taxes, which pulled the treasury out
with a surplus, where as six months
ago a substantial deficit was predict
ed by the,budget bureau. *

The Clinton Chronicle—$1.50 a Year
In rural England, a huge lion,
knocked out of his cage in an automo
bile collision, jumped into a cow pas
ture. A cow with a young calf dashed
at him, and gored him, attacking him
again and again, until he killed her.
Others, later, killed the lion.
The cow, not the lion, is the inter
esting animal in that story, for she
represents mother love, with its
boundless courage. How many men
would have attacked the lion with no
better weapon that a cow’s horns.

but she was so scared she wouH turn
black in the face.”
Dr. Burrus testified King had an
“idiosyncrosy” to narcotics and in
consequence he did not react to them
like the average person. He said the
two tablets King said he took the
morning of the tragedy would not
have put him to sleep as he said they
had done. Dr. Burrus testified to giv
ing King laterln the day several oth
er kinds of narcotics, none of .which
put him to sleep.
In telling of the autopsy Dr. Bur
rus said there was no corrosion on the
lining of the stomach but that he and
Dr. Saye h^d detected the odor of a
“coal tar preparation” which made
them believe she had taken poison. He
said that in taking poison there would
have resulted a struggle and that
there was no evidence of any such
struggle.
After the second autopsy, he said,
when they discovered the ruptured
blood vessels in the neck, it was the
unanimous opinion of the physicians
that Mrs. King had been choked to
death.
Tom Fulton, Kings Mountain under
taker, testified he had sent the em
balming fluid to Clemson college au-
^thorities. He was used by thejia(|nse
to make the statement that the odor
jthe physicians smelled in Mrs. King’s
i stoma(?h was not the same odor as the
embalming fluid he used.
probably, had not seen a dangerous
wild beast, in more than 1,000 years.
But, at sight, the cow knew that the
lion meant danger to her calf, and
rushed to the attack. Man is not the
only animal “fearfully and wonder
fully made.”
