Teachers in South Carolina in the future will be h required to profess their belief in the Peity of Jesus Christ if Senator i/olt L? 1)1 ease has his way about it. the senator, here today from kis home at Pendleton for a short stay, said he favored something more stringent than the proposed law against evo lution which Representative Thomas 11. Pee pies of Richland /county, has announced his intention of the spon soring. . , "1 intend writing Tom Peeples and telling him I would like *tfo see a law in this state requiring all teach ers in the public schools to. take an ?obligation admitting their belief in the Deity of Jesus Christ. "This would eliminate the neces sity of prohibiting the teaching of t'voluhoji in the public schools of Soutft Carolina. By passing an even moreCfcttringent law, I believe much good would be accomplished," Sen ator Blease said. In discussing the trial now in progress at Dayton, Tenn., Senator Blease said it was .absurd for any one who professed to believe in the Deity of Jesus Christ to think that they could also believe in the theory of evolution. "The two beliefs cannot be , rec onciled," Senator Bletase declared. "Therefore if a man believes in evolution he certainly does not be lieve in the Deity of Jesus Christ. "I5ut aside from the question of hereafter can there be any better doctrine to live by than that of the. Golden t Rule, prescribed by . Christ. It makes one feel better in his daily relations with his fellowirten to practice it, even if there were no hereafter. But reason tells us there is a future abode for the soul, an other place in which man must give reckoning for Jiis earthly deeds." In a style which made him famous over this- state, using satire and sarcasm, Senator Blease then attack ed the theory of evolution and those who profess to believe in it. He was strong in his denunciation of those who would have th& child ren of today believe that "our fore fathers ran around on four feet in stead of two. "I -poke over at Gaffney one night recently and I told the boys there that if they want9d to believe that ' he; ! . ancestors'- were monkeys, they could do .so.

LYMAN FREED IN WALHALLA Plead His Own NCase When Put On Trial in Oconee Walhalla, July 10. ? A case of un usual interest in sessions court was that of C. Lyman charged with breach of trust and grand larceny. It is al Jeged that Lyman was state organ izer for the Knights of the Mystic Shrine. He operated principally in the lower section of Oconee- county where he apparently found a fertile ?field. Soon after various circles were organized in this section he appointed two or more prominent men to good positions in the order and required that they give him bqnd in various ?sums for the faithful discharge . of their duties. These appointees- put up cash bonds and alleged that Lyman used theif money for his own personal needs. Lyman lost out .with his or der, the bind money was demanded and he failed to return it. He was arrested and has been in jail since. Hp pleaded his own case and So managed it that he was acquitted-by a jury. It is stated that Sheriff Kay has several other warrants sent him from officers in other counties of this state and in Georgia and Lyman will likely be turned over to some oth^r South Carolina authorities at an early date. It is alleged that Lyman collected several thousand dollars in fees and bonds during the time he worked the field t>ver a very, limited territory.. It is the opinion of the officers and general public that Lyman is not' only a good solicitor for his .order but that in case of an emergency he could succeed al llie bar.- ? ? i i i . i , Btfotleggers and Thieves I*lay Ball Greenville, S.

NO-MO-KORN CORNS AND CALLOI/8E8 HlSHOl'VUXR MAN DEAD Mr. Woodham >V*h Firxt Auditor of l-w County Although not entirely unexpected, the death of (\ \\ . Woodham last Saturday morning, which occurred at liis home on Harris .street, cast a {(loom over the entire town and county where he was ''well known and num Ik ic.l his friends by his acquaintances. Mr. Woodham had been in declin ing health for the past three or four years. He had been to several hos pitals for treatment, and all that lov ing hearts and willing hands could do was done to make his last days on earth comfortable, but all to no avail. The final summons came peaee fully and quietly surrounded by his loved ones. Charles YVeldon Woodham was boili September 23, 1855, in the Stokes Bridge section of what ir now Lee county. He was therefore 69 years of age. All of his life was spent in this county. In 1905 he with his family moved to Bishopville, where he has lived ever since. Forty-two years jigo he was married to Miss Nancy Laney Ilea i on, who With the following children survive him: Mrs. Sullivan Woodham of Stokes fridge section; (i. W. Woodham, W. E. Woodham, Mrs. J, Clyde Keiley of Bishopvillc and Mrs. Julian Keiley of Olanta, . He is also survived by the following brothers and sisters: L, A. Woodham of Bishopville;' Mrs. Laney Keiley of Hartsville, Mrs. Ella Rhodes of Columbia, E, E'. Woodham of Stokes Bridge and T. E. Wpodham of Timmonsville. Mr. Woodham was the first auditor for Lee couufyT having been elected when the county was first formed, and for 12 successive years held this office with much credit to both him self and the county. He was one of the best liked men in the county ? a man with no enemies and a friend of all who knew him. Early in lif,e Mr. Woodham united with the . Hebron Methodist church, and to the time of his death was ? faithful ar\d loyal member of that denomination. Some time after mov ing to Bishopville he removed his membership here. '".v.. Funeral services were held at the late residence here, interment follow ing in the family plot at Hebron, Sunday morning. There was a large crosq^Lof sorrowing friends and rela tives, and an immense floral offering that was very beautiful, giving silent testimony to the love for a departed frieniJ. ?

Ross, of the Federal District for Westfern Tennessee, found dead today pinioned under the wreckage of his automobile in a'v creek near Jackson ? less than twenty-four hours after his* indictment by<a Madison county grand jury which investigated the failure of the Peoples' Savings Bank of Jackson ? met death by drowning when the automobile in which he was riding veered in the roadway and plunged into the gtvollen stream. Formal certification that Judge Ross' death was due to .drowning was made after an examination of his body today by- Dr. W. G. Saun ders-, a Jackson physician, and an nouncement was made that in view of the finding of the physician no jnquest would be necessary. Jiidge Ross' body was found in his! partly submerged automobile in a creek about seven miles from Jackson by a passerby. Apparently he had been dead only a short time. His head was badly bruised, pelief. was expressed tonigTit that faulty brakes and inability to apply them successfully caused the car to plunge in the Toacjway. Yesterday Judge Ross made bond of $25,000 after indictments charg ing him with forgery, accessory to embezzlement and breach of trust were returned against him by the Madison county grand jury. Two former officials of the defunct bank, T. B. Carroll, former cashier, and John Carroll, his son, and formerly an assistant cashier, and W. L. Cawthon, a timber dealer, also were indicted. T. L. Murray,, district attorney general, said tonight that the trag edy of today would not effect the investigation of allegiH irregulari ties which are held to be responsible for wrecking the bank ? -closed a month ago. * It was indicated today that Judg^ Ross had prepared a statement in answer to an investigation being con ducted by the bar association ^ of Memphis to determine Whether cef , tain banking transactions charged to him were in violation of judicial ethics. News received here indi cated, however, that the investigation now will be dropped which Is exgfct; ?d to prechide jfablicatlon ol ike statement. ,, Thin In True To begin with, the m*il. order housi'jt do not sell goods any cheaper thun you can buy tht?m at home. If your local merchant doesn't happen to have the particular goods you wHiit i you i au get them at another store or in the nearest large town, just as cheap or cheaper than you would haw to pay tin- mail oulri' house. i ?* When you trade with your home merchant, you ran .sot* the goods you buy, and you have' some one to look to i?f the goods do not turn out to be as represented. You get the goods when you buy them. You do not wait until you send your money to a distant point and have,, the goods shipped to you. The mail order houses do not help support schools or help build good roads in South Carolina. Thoy do not employ local people and they do not huy local product* of any kind. They do not employ local mechanics to build their store rooms. When you send ,,yoiir .money to them it is gone, so far as you aro concerned. You cannot got any of it back, in local taxes or local chari ties,' or in any other way. When you trade, with your home merchants, the profits th^y make stay at home. They pay taxes here, they employ local help, they spend all their money here. You stand a chance of getting some of it back, directly or indirectly. There are many local merchants; there is com petition in every line. If you do not like one particular merchant, yon can patronize others. When you send your money to the mail order house you do not save money, you are subject to delays, you stand the risk 6f getting un satisfactory goods, and you hurt your own community by taking out of it the money you send away. Why patronize the mail order houses, anyway? By doing so you do not practice economy for your self, and yOu hurt your own town. ? Spartanburg Sun. Died From Dive Greenville, July -42. ?
