The Rising Sun—1856-1860 NEWBERRY, S.C., FRIDAY, MAY 20,1938 Slider & Greneker—1856-1860 $1.00 PER YEAR OUT AMONG THE PEOPLE ON SMELLING SWEET Occasionally for old times’ sake I drop in the dime stores, give the man a penny and smell his soap—violet, heliotrope, lavender! Ah! Departing I hear him murmur something about being “more damn fools in this town” . . . but he just doesn’t know, for h e has never washed himself with one of those old-time oval cakes of sweet-smelling soap! The bath room today is not very inviting to one who really wants to wash himself. The soap can easily be taken for an aspirin tablet; the towels are monognamed and neatly and stiffly pressed—entirely too pret ty to use. But the tragic thing is that it isn’t polite to smell good any more. Today you are not supposed to smell—one way or another. Society requires you to get rid of your B. O. and re. place it with nothing. I can remember back when folks used real soap and smelt good. They didn’t mind taking a stand, but now everybody is on the fence—scentless nonentities. Every now and again you may detect the slightest perfume about a lady—just a suggestion, but the good old robust smell has gone the way of the model T and hay rides. Although a good washing could be had in the old tin tub a thorough rinsing was not possible nor desirable. A thick lather of sweet-scented suds allowed to dry oni your hide was good for a week of sweet-smelling. I see an ad occasionally telling of a strange perfume which attracts and snares the male-when worn by the fair sex. That bird is only capitaliz ing on the ignorance of the age and a 5c bar of old fashioned soap. Too many times have I seen sweet smelling boys and girls fall not to know. The old-fashioned girl sweetly scented from her Saturday night wash and dressed in summery voile and pic ture hat meets boy likewise scented aijd—well there was a wedding; no short would be acceptable to yuy seyeral dollars ' perfume about the sire of a match when for a nickle they ccflvd get a big bar of old-fashioned lavender and really smell good. But as we said at the outset it isn’t polite to smell loud any more. You must pay a stiff price to smell indifferent. I have made a trade with a friend to use his tin tub and I am going to get one of those old fashioned green bars of heliotrope and again wash myself. I am going to smell good and loud again before I die if it gives Emily Post asthma. I don’t care what “they” say. I may have to leave home, but if I do I am going to crawl in with Coroner Wilson’s old goat. He can take it, and so can I! THE MAN ON THE MONUMENT “Well Buddy you didn’t show up last night but just as well for I had other company.” Then the Man on The Monument paused for a long while and though trying to collect the details of a story he had promised me—a story of mis placed love; of a girl who poured out herself for 1 the one she loved. “It wos the night we landed in Brest” he began. “I was standing on the wharf as homesick as it is pos sible for one to be. Filing no in clination to bake part in the whoopee the boys were making in the city I sat down on a packing case and tried to figure out this wiar business. Turn ing at the blast from the whistle of the transport just entering the har bor I noticed a girl sitting on the other end of the long box. She was weeping softly. “I knew no French but my heart went out to her and I determined to be of help if I could. To my surprise she spoke English; in fact she was an American and here is the story she sobbed out to me in her own words as nearly as I can recall them: “I picked him up out of the gutter” she began. “He was down and out and for a time he seemed to lov e me, whether for myself of out of grati tude I don’t know. I took him home after feeding him but mother would not let him stay there. “Mr. Doughboy were you ever m love?” Her big eyes sparkled and her voice was husky. “Then you know how I felt when mother slam med the door on both of us. “However I was making my own money and I hired a room for us. My heart went out to him for I could see he had never been cared for. I fed him and bathed him and for many months we were happy together. “Then came the morning I will never forget. I awoke early and went to his bed and he was gone! I didn’t go to work that day, my heart was too heavy. Instead I spent the day look ing for him and late in the afternoon I got my first clue. A dock police man told me he saw one answering my description on the deck of a trans port that sailed that very day. Here she stopped and lit another cigarette and nestled close to me as Rev. Thomas Chapman will conduct fscrvices at Clayton Memorial ersalist Church Sunday,'May 22, at 11 A. M. and 8 P. M. The public is cordially invited. Dispute Brings Close To Mollohon Mill The Molloho.; Manufacturing com pany, plant of the Kendall company, ceased operations here Tuesday, after negotiations with its workers over the operation of certain machinery in the mills closed. The installation of new machinery in the mill, coupled with a poor market made it necessary to lay off 13 employees and it was over this that the dispute arose. It is said that the mill management offered to pay half-salary to those laid off for a period of four weeks, until they became eligible for un employment compensation, and also that they agreed to place them back in the mill as soon as business condi tions warranted. Mollohon mill was closed two years ago for a period of five months. Mill officials Tuesday issued the following statement: Business conditions recently made it necessary to install new spinning machinery which required a revis ion of the spinning department jobs and also involved the unavoidable elimination of a few jobs. After six weeks of collective bargaining nego tiations, the Mollohon management proposed a new airangement of jobs which was based upon careful studies and certain revisions made after con sideration of employee viewpoints. The Mollohon management also pro posed to pay the eliminated employees an unemployment contribution of one- half their full-time pay for four weeks to tide them over until they became eligible for unemployment compensation. On Monday the employees cam e to the spinning room >nd refused to fol low the instructions of the manage ment as to job assignments and con tinued to do so throughout the day. The continuance of this “stay-in” strike on Tuesday so disrupted pro duction arrangements that the man agement had no alternative but to discontinue opertions.

DRESSED FOR THE PART “Rush over to Whit’s barn” said the musical voice of Coroner Wilson over the wire, “I have something to shew you that beats the goat.” Rushing around we found the object of the coroner’s excitement. It was a colored WPA worker, lazily moving up and down with his pick and dressed to his ankles in a duster. Around the handle of his pick was wrapped a heavy rag. He explained that he wore the duster because dirt fell on his back as he came up with the pick. GOT USED TO IT Coroner Wilson says Gene Spear man has taken Bill Waters' cow away from him and since he hates to see Bill go hungry he is going to lend him his goat until Gene and Bill get things straightened out. There was a little flurry around Whit’s barn a- bout that goat when the coroner threatened to bring him up there where he could be close to him. After thinking it over however “Whit” withdrew his objections with the state ment: “We got used to smelling him, so I guess we will get used to the goat.” though recital of the details of her loss had left her cold. “I was determined’ she continued, “that he could not double cross me like that. I had a little money left me by an old aunt and I invested most most of it in passage on a Clipper which left the hext morning, and here I am. I will follow him to the end of the earth. I MUST see him again. The big transport had been wiarped in and was discharging her load of cannon fodder. A stream of kbak clad men poured down the gang-plank Th e girl was alert—watching. Sud denly she screemed and flew across the wharf, dodging in and our among the soldiers. “Fido! Fido!” she called. “My dar ling! I knew I would find you.” Washington, May 17.—President Roosevelt at his press conference this afternoon, by inference, said he would not interfere in the South Carolina senatorial contest, in which Senator E. D. Smith will seek his sixth nomi nation. Mr. Roosevelt was asked this ques tion: “Mr. President, Governor Johnston yesterday announced against Senator Smith for the senate and in a state ment which he issued as he was leav ing the White House, he inferred your support of his candidacy—is that cor rect?” In response to the question, Mr. Roosevelt said the answer was the same old phonograph record and he suggested to the inquirer that he get Swve Early, White House secretary to play it again after the conference. He said that applied to other people who had been coming in to see him. Asked after the conference to re peat what was on the mythical phono graph record, Early replied: “We don’t interfere in state poli tics.” MIS HUNTER DIES SUDDENLY AT HOME Miss Belle Hunter died suddenly at her home in • the St. Luke’s section of the county Monday night.

RULE 32 IS. AMENDED South Carolina, most Democratic state in the nation, at its state Demo cratic convention in Columbia Wed nesday struck a death blow at its famed Rule 32, under which, for years, voters in the primaries have pledged themselves to support, in the general election, the “nominees” of the party,, state and national.” The rule was amended so as to elim inate the requirement that voters swear to support the party’s national candidates. The vote for the change was 213; against, 120. Before the vote was taken there was heated debate and the conven tion, more or less lethargic during most of its session, became alert and tense, sensing the fact that the party was about to strike out in a new. line, and depart from the custom familiar to most democratic South Carolinians for decades. 20 YEARS AGO Presidents Wilson who designated May 30, national memorial day, as a day when the people shall gather in their places of worship and pray for peace through the victory of the al lied armies, and peace that may be established upon mercy, justice and good will.
