THURSDAY, SEPT. Tt 1922 ************************** * * * THE PEOPLE PROTEST * * * ************************** The snowing under of the bridge act, passed at the la^t session of the General Assembly, providing for the building of three bridges at important points in this county, has worried the minds of many men and women who have wanted to see the development and improvements continued in that way. They thought that the people would vote for the issue of these bonds. The people would not vote to issue the bonds' and the reasons are not very far to find. With money already secured for the building of road from Conway to Port Harrelson the location of that road was managed in such a way that great dissatisfaction was expressed and threats were made then that the bond issue would be fought. First there was the Greenwood route. This proposal to go by way of Greenwood was held out for a time and then withdrawn and this took place in such a manner that the people of the Greenwood section of Busks township openly stated that the Greenwood route was opposed at first only for the purpose of a blind to conceal the real intention as to the locution in Conway over fourth avenue instead of third* avenue where it would do the town the most good. After a time when the Greenwood route was abandoned and it came down to the location in Conwav, the wishes and intentions of the boards having this matter in hand whipped about from the sand ridge where it was first surveyed in a crooked line, down to< the very edge of the swamp* where heavy expense was undergone to finally put the road there. This was noticed by the people and they saw and understood at last that the road would be located so as to favor private interests the most instead of trying to do the most good to the greatest number of the people who pay the taxes. Here are some reasons then for the failure of the people to vote for the issuing of bonds to build three bridges that would have done a whole lot of good in the county. The people cannot be kept in the dark all the time. They often res easy and in confidence while great moves arc being made by those in authority, and then at the last minute rise in their might and say th * word that stops it all. With different management of the national hignway project the people would have voted for the issuing of the bonds and the progress of Horry would not have beer held back as it being hold back. There is the wrong way and th<" right way to go about the location of a road. In this case tlie wronp way was chosen and the people found it out. They protested by means of their vote cast on August 29th. 1 4 l? I U/\ *\ ion fninir i \ rNUW K'L ti: l> l.'C (I ?

Take a man who Has robbed his neighbor and gone to the pen. I'ardon him and he does the same thing over again. One of the things that astonish ed well informed people was the he lief in the minds of some of the qualified voters that a Governoi can reduce taxes. o In the course of the next fiv years the boll weevil will be about forgotten in the enjoyment of new prosperity that will have come tthis section by diversified farming o io nn vn/l tin i %i orwrnf 1U 111 itnn in HHAVM UJ/ in OVMHV way in the very nature of sonu people, and they cannot live without practicing it so long as the.v think they cannot he caught. o Good management on the part oJ the men who have the control o! the Tobacco Marketing Association will bring it to success by the time another tohncco season has comt around. <> It has been said that competit ion is the life of trade. It is indeed so in the ca.ste of unimport ant things. In larger matters the word now used is cooperation, ami not competition. t The attention and skill given to a tobacco crop in the planting, the I cultivating, the harvesting} and then marketing varies in proportion to the ability and experience of the nifn who are raiding the tobacco crops. On this depends the price received for the crop. o You may talk about showing mercy to murderers and rapists, but to pardon them means to turn them out tor them to commit the same crimes over again. The condition which caused them to do a crimnal act the first time will cause them to do the same things again and the rest of the people are the sufferers. * * ? There is one thing certain, and that is, that the better class of tlv* people do not wish to live in the midst of murderers and thieves; and it is for that reason that the law has provided a place for safe keeping of convicts. There are many arguments to show that men are not responsible for the crimnai acts they commit but that their acts are produced by some diseased condition that could be remedied. That may indeed be so, but still there must be a place to keep them away from the rest of society. WASHINGTON COMMENT "A General Strike!" Do you remember grown-up-manwho-reads-this, when you climbed up the long, long stairs to the dark and mysterious attic? And the other, older children, told you to watch out for the "bogey man?" And you jumped and shivered and shook with terrified delight? There wasn't any "bogey" man really. It was just a dear figment of childish imagination. Nor is there any real grown up "bogey man," not even when lie masquerades by the name of "General Strike." There are those hot-headed and under-educated members of so ciety who would like to frighten the rest of us with his name. Hut they forget, these agitators, that this is America, where all have some, and many Ivave much opportunity to learn; where standards of living are high; where men are safe and secure in their homes; where each man's house is his castle, and each man's wife and children his to protect and love and keep, and never a man or a Government to say him nay. The American?the true, red blooded, patriotic, flag-loving, landloving, home-loving American?can no more ye led into making himself a part of a Bolshevist bogey man than he can be led into mass murder for the establishment of a soviet, a la Russia. The indignation, the revolt, the emphatic negatives to talk of a general strike, came first of all from American workmen, who are Americans first, and members of a union, sect, order, or organization only after they ?h55555ES55EE555555SM5E55^ Wood For a - IAt pre-war prices keep you warm 1 ter months at t per lo Conway 14|22-4t IBreakfaj Little childrc their meal each 11 know a dainty coming.

( o 1 THE HAT YOU WEAR ( i The^ relationship between a woman's hat and her face is often thought of as identical with the relationship between a frame and a 1 picture. There are two reasons for * this. First, the frame and the hat .are considered for their real useful- 1 I ness, and second, for the proper emphasis which they place upon points * i" i a . . * i i 01 special interest. ? o NEW PUBLICATIONS I Clemson College.?Four little publications of timely interest just issued by the Extension Service, of Clemson College, two on feeding dairy animals and two on crop roUitions, are ready for distribution to those who desire them.

It is the policy of the County I Board this year to recommend no jermits whatever, until all certificated teachers are placed. That is ;o say, if there are enough liccnsea i r\ onr\nlt? 4 ktuviivin w r>ujjjj|(y IIIU StUUUIS Ol the County, no application will be rejoin mended for a permit. The per in it law is only intended to lake care of an emergency situation whenever there is a shortage of teachers. Therefore, all prospective teachers who desire to teach this year anc< who do not now have certifiacte* are urged to take the teacher's examination in October. All those who teach, or commence to teach, without a certificate do so nt the rick of getting no pay for their work. And all trustees who employ those to teach who have ntcertificates may cause their schools to lose State aid. This is true because certificated teachers are strict requirements of the State equalizing law. Trustees are requested to please revise the list of children in their districts. A complete new list must be made on the cards mailed to you, md this may be done by copying the names from the old cards, or the list of last year, and making all necessary changes, by adding to or striking out, caused by the moving in or out of the district of pupils, and other changes caused by ne\* pupils arriving at the school, age, t?tc. Remember that a complete list on new cards is necessary. It is hoped that every Board of Trustees will co-operate with their teachers in the organization of a live, active and permanent School Improvement Association. Every School in the County should organize [it once. There should be at least twelve meetings in the year, one in each month. This will entitle th's Association to a Five Dollar prize Also, Forty Dollar prizes are offered to a limited number of such Associations which make certain lmprovments for their schools. Two forty dollar prizes were awarded last year. Any school in Horry County desiring a term of adult or nigiu school this year, will please mak? application to my office at once, oi as soon as practicable, and have the application signed by teachers, trus W) A T I Indcf bilit.y oi .

COUNTY HOARD KECO M M EN DATIONS r The State Board of Education has changed the text books for the schools of the State. This change effects 48 per cent of the books used in schools all over the - State. In making the change the State Board of Education adopted a basal text and in most cases, an optional basal, leaving the County Board of Education to choose whether the basal texts or the optional basal texts shall be used in the schools of Horry County. The County Board has adopted the basal all the way through in preference of the optional basal, except in the matter of the third, fourth and fifth grades the optional basal i.< taken instead of the basal. The new school Register has the list of books adopted by the State Board printed in the back. Just remember that the basal is the one in every case except that the optional in language is to be used and not the basal. The Live Language lessons are used in the third, fourth and fifth grades.

Duncan, the comptroller general, yesterday extended the time for the payment of 1921 state and county taxes from September 15 to October 1st. The extension was approved by the governor and orders were sent out to all the counties this morning. Recently the comptroller general extended the time from September 1 io oeptemoer iotn, and the last extension has been so great that Mr. Duncan decided to make October 1st the date rather than September 15th. The extension effects executions largely, the time for- the payment of taxes having expired June 1st. Executions will go in the hands of the sheriffs on the morning of October 1st under the new extension, Mr. Duncan said yesterday. No further time will be granted, the comptroller general declared. Mr. Duncan said he had received many letters and telegrams from all secions-of the state urging him to granc more time on account of the slowness in moving the crops of the state. He said he hoped the people would take advantage of this 15 days as it will be impossible to make further extension. o LESS CORN According to report of the Division of Crop and Livestock Estimates of the United States Department of Agriculture, the production of corn in South Carolina will be about f>00,000 bushels less than last year, while the production for the entire United States will be approximately 100,000,000 bushels less than in 1921. o ?
