It is as little as any one can wish that Ford and his peace party will meet with success," but' from this dis;r. tance it certainly looks like a wild - goose chase. Ford knows a good |.\ deal about running the automobile fe* J / business, but when it comes to run!V ning Europe, we imagine that is a I I, much different matter. The Newberry Herald and News, v ' rounding out its fiftieth year, cele. brated its half .century of '^ptetence with the issuance of a 56-page semicentennial edition last Friday. The v issue is a credit to a town much larger than Newberry, and the advertising. patronage extended the edition was q^iite liberal. In the edition there are a large number of valuable articles. The Ne^d for Women. "Lovest thou me enough to give thyself?" Our most urgent need today is for men and women who will come out to ^eap in these white harivf vest fields. The work is hardf I know of none harder. But it is a work that angels might envy?-full of suffering and brimful of joy. Could we bring to these columns the exir perience and calm judgment of the women who are filling their places in the various fields of home and foreign service, it would read as the voice of one: "I have thanked God a thousand times that my lot has fallen in the heart of such an opportunity." ^ Youpg woman, with t brain alert "and mind equipped, but with anchor % of life still drifting, turn your thought to the need of the world? its need for women. Read where " you will, you will find the nations of earth groping after the light which s. a Christian woman can give. , Mrs. Anna At water says the word has not yet been spoken to us as women to give the highest form of service.

BfeV, WS-'' The Young Man's Job. Congressman Byrnes, of South . Carolina, in speaking at Greenville i last week said, "the interests of the 1 employer and the employee are one f and the same." President Sherard ! said, "The mills have nothing to suf; fer in the njatter" (of the passage of 1 the Palmer bill). The two stater [ ments look contradictory, but Mr. ) Sherard, who is a mill superintend' ent and knows, explained that help is plentiful, and there are more people than jobs,?that the labor of , young children is not profitable to a mill at any price, but that until a J scale of wages can be sufficiently in. creased so a man can buy his family all they want and need with his own | .wages,?until then it will be the greatest hardship on the boys and , girls of 14, 15 and 16 years of age ; who want to help themselves and their families, to be deprived of their . work in .the mills. This is what the Palmer or Palmer Owen bill will do, and it is strictly ! "up to" the people in the mills to let their congressmen know by . sending > petitions showing how they feel about { it. Congressman Byrnes, in his Greenville address, pointed out 'the unconstitutionality of the bill, but ' that cannot deter the smart people L who are back of the bill from getting [ it through if the voters of some sections persist in saddling other sec1 tions with the law. "Eternal vigi, lance is the price of liberty," and ' prompt action now is the price of manv n vmin^ man's iob. It is really o ? ? - nonsense to call the work of a boy ' of .15 years child labor, but that is : the slogan and so that is what we ^ have to call it.?Mill News. Wanted Cleopatra. "Give me a copy of 'Anthony and Cleopatra,' please," said the bright young man entering the book store. "Yes, sir," said the clerk. "Here you are. / One dollar and fifty cents." "I've only got seventy-five cents, so just give me 'Cleopatra.' " Thursday, Dec. 9 The Famous Broadway Dramatic Star JULIA DEAN ?in? " Judge Not" ?or? THE WOMAN OF MONA DIGGrlNS. =\; .
