A SMITH MAN
W. Q. Mettz in the city Friday for
a meeting of the Democratic Execu
tive committee of which he is a mem
her, expressed his intention of sup
porting Senator Smith for re-elec
tion. He thought Smith had done all
in his power for the farmer, and
blamed the little that had been done
for agriculture to Smith’s having no
one in congress in sympathy with the
farmer.
ALL MAY GET MAJORITIES
The linotyper ruined the import of
an Item last week by making us say
that it was “impossible” for all can
didates in the House race to receive
majorities of the votes to be cast in
th e coming primary. We wrote it
“possible.” A little calculation will
show that in voting for three men
the 8000 votes likely to be cast is, in
this race equal to 24,000 votes, di
vided by five would give each candi
date 4,800 ; 4,001 would be a major
ity.
THE COLONEL RETURNS
Colonel T. E. Epting (known fond
ly as “Dude”) has returned from
Myrtle Beach much invigorated and
refreshed and in love with all man
kind (collectively) and especially that
part of it attired in sheer silk—knee
length. There (at the beach) he be
haved almost unbecomingly with fair
mermaids and trundling crabs; at
onc e the brute and the tender lover.
Moved by the majesty of the heaving
pond and becoming reckless over the
aquatic temptations he with com
plete abandon set out to learn about
women from mermaids and the
thought that he could not always dis
port in the blu e waters with them
brought forth salty tears on his
wouldn’t figure
ne would want to sit in 5
a class room when there was so
much loving to be done and no one
(no not one) in all the land so adept
as he at slinging bull and making it
stick. Returning briny tear for
briny tear our hero fell back upon
philosophy (Dutch Fork variety pick
ed up about the campus) as great
lovers have done in past ages and
somewhat assauged his sweeties by
assuring them that parting with
such pulchitrude was indeed sweet
sorrow, etc, etc, ampersand and so
on
MISSES THE FRESH AIR
J. M. Wilson in to renew his paper
and to subscribe for his brother, D.
C. Wilson of Prosperity Route 3, says
he hasn’t exactly got accustomed to
inside postal work. Mr. Wilson was
letter carrier on the Mollohon route
for 15 years and misses the fresh
air and contact with his friends along
the route. He is a brother of the
coroner but a much better man in
all respects.
AN ESSAY ON EDITORS
I don’t know how newspapers came
to be in the world. I don’t think God
does, for He hasn’t anything to say
about them in the Bible. I think the
editor is one of them missing links
you read of. He styed in the bushes
until after the flood, & then came out
and wrote the thing up, and has been
there ever since. I don’t think he
ever dies. I never saw a dead one
and never heard of one getting lick
ed. If the editor makes a mistake
people say he ought to be hung; but
if a doctor makes a mistake, he bur
ies them and folks dassent say noth
ing, because doctors can read and
write Latin. When the editor makes
a mistake, there is a lawsuit and
srrearing and a big fuss; but if a
doctor makes one there is a funeral,
cut flowers, and perfect silence. A
doctor can use a word a mile long
without him or anybody knowing
what it means; but if the editor uses
one he has to spell it. If the doctor
goes to see another man’s wife he
charges for the visits; but if the edi
tor goes h e gets a charge of buck
shot. When the doctor grots drunk, it
is a case of being overcome by the
heat, and if he dies it’s from heart
trouble; when an editor gets drunk
it is a plain case of too much booze,
and when he dies it is from a cause
too disgraceful to speak of. Any old
college can make a doctor; an editor
has to be born.
CAMPAIGN MEETING
Candidates for county offices will
speak at Chappells Wednesday, Aug
ust 10th, and at Mt. Pleasant the

NEGROES ARRESTED WITH
STOLEN GOODS
Charged with house-breakeng and
larceny, Harold Orr and Milton Wil
liams, both colored, were lodged in
the county jail at two o'clock Wed
nesday morning, after being caught
near Montgomery, a small flag stop
on the Southern .Railway between
Peak and Columbia, by Magistrate
Hatton and Deputy Neel. At the time
of capture, the negroes were carrying
$50 worth of goods taken from the
store building of J. K. Shell Monday
night.
The report being made that Shell’s
store had been robbed. Sheriff Tom
Fellers and Deputy Hub Quattlebaum
began investigation Tuesday morn
ing. After an all-day search by these
officers, assisted by State Constable
A. H. Shealy, Magistrates constables
Rohn Koon and Ruff Livingston, and
Patrolman J. W. Martin, the negroes
were found about 11 o’clock Tuesday
evening.

dred Purcell. Mr. Davis is owner of
the Davis Motor company.
HAS OPERATION

DR. BOOZER TO SPEAK
AT HOME-COMING
Rev. V. Y. Boozer, D. D., of Lees-
ville, will deliver the sermon at Co
lony church at 11:30 next Sunday
morning, August 7 in observance of
the annual Home-Coming. He was
■dtfrmg the
supply pastor of Colony
summer of 1893.
Dr. Boozer was born in Prosperity
on June 24, 1868, the son of the late
Mr. and Mrs. Henry S. Boozer and
is pleasantly remembered by the old
er people of the community, who will
be delighted to hear him again. He
attended the public school at Pros
perity, later graduating from New
berry College with the distinction of
second honor. He received the de
grees of A. B., and A. M. from New
berry College and later his Alma
Mater honored him with the degree
of Doctor of Divinity, an honor well
bestowed. He entered the Southern
Lutheran Theological Seminary
which at that time was located in
Newberry, graduating in the spring
of 1894. While in Newberry he came
under the influence of Dr. R. C.
Holland and Dr. A. G. Voight, whose
influence aided much in making him
the successful pastor and preacher
he has been.
There is a unique relationship
existing between Dr. Boozer and the
present pastor of Colony church
which might be of interest to the
public and which the writer of this
sketch delights in recounting.
It was in the home church of pas-
tc^ Kester, Bethel Church, Rowan
County, N. C., that Dr. Boozer was
ordained to the Gospel Ministry in
1894, when the former was 9 years
old. In 1899 Dr. Boozer became pas
tor of this church and in 1900 re
ceived Mr. Kester into the church.
Thus it was that Dr. Boozer baptized,
catechized, and confirmed the pre
sent pastor of Colony church. It
was through his influences, largely
that Mr. Kester’s life was directed
to the ministry and through his in-
flnenc e that the way was opened up,
financially, for him to enter The
Mount Pleasant Collegiate Institute,
Mt. Pleasant, N. C., later Newberry
College, and finally the Southern
Lutheran Theological Seminary at
Columbia, S. C., from which institu
tion he graduted. Then, on May 12,
1912, when Mr. Kester was ordained
to the Gospel Ministry, Dr. Boozer,
by appointment of Synod, preached
th e ordination sermon. It will be
with special delight and pleasure
that the pastor will welcome Dr. and
Mrs. Boozer to Colony next Sunday.
JOB FOR THE SCIENTIST
With hundreds of white children
out of school on account of measles
w e note from Prof. Cannon’s report to
the people of the district that “very
few negroes were absent on account
of measles." Isn’t this a case for the
research man? Ther e is certainly
some very good reason why measles
attacks the white child and not the
colored child, and the solution to this
dreaded scourge of childhood might
be found here.
CANDIDATES HEARD
AT JOLLY STREET
(By LUTHER AULL)
Speaking to a crowd of perhaps
two thousand people at Jolly Street
Saturday, candidates for various of
fices within the gift of the people of
South Carolina provided the program
and entertainment at what is by far
the largest and most famous politi
cal rally in the State. Dr. S. J. Der
rick of Newberry college was master
of ceremonies, and introduced the
speakers.
The meeting was opened with
prayer by the Rev. Emmett Roof of
the St. Paul’s Lutheran parish. The
address of welcome by County Super
intendent of Education C. E. Hendrix
was followed by a brief talk from
J. H. Hope, unopposed for re-elect
ion as State Superintendent of Edu
cation. J. E. Harley, of Barnwell,
candidate for reelection as Lieuten
ant Governor favored exemption from
taxes of farms owned and operated
by the farmers themselves. L. Gas
ton Wannamaker, also a candidate
for Lieutenant Governor, urged that
the people stick to the precedent un
broken in the history of the state
that no man serve in the offic e for
more than four years. Mr. Wanna
maker also called attention to his
labor record, saying that he had not
only voted for e Yfc»y piece of legisla
tion that labor wanted, but that he
had led the fight for it on the floor
of the House.
ENROLLMENT OFF Government Will Aid
FROM THAT OF '36
Wyndham Manning of Sumier, the
first of the gubernatorial candidates
to speak, promised impartial law en
forcement and pledged himself as
governor to make South Carolina a
saf e place for God-fearing people to
live in. He was followed by Burnet
R. Maybank of Charleston, who
pledged himself as governor to ad
vertise South Carolina in such a way
as to attract outside capital to the
State and thus Increase lta wealth
“When money memm ""rroiifv, it
changes hands and we hav e prosper
ity,” he said. D. T. Blackmon, of
Columbia denied reports that he was
in the race to advertise his business,
and told those who were worrying
not to worry about whether he was
old enough to be governor if he were
elected. “Go on and give Cole
Blease all the votes you want to and
give m e the rest and I’ll be satis
fied,” he said. Cole L. Blease, who
was introduced to the audience by
Dr. Derrick as “th e battle-scarred
veteran of a score of South Carolina
political campaigns,” admitted that
he was training Blackman to be the
Governor in 1942. “This is my fif
tieth visit as a speaker at this oc
casion,” he said. Mr. Blease gave
the lie to reports that he was ill and
too feeble for his voice to be heard
across a room, and told his listeners
that he was one of the few men in
the race who could show that he
still had all of his natural teeth. Mr.
Blease was of the opinion that the
government was being run too ex
travagantly, and promised economy.
John Hlugas Cooper recounted the
endorsement of his candidacy by his
neighbors and advocated a market
ing system for and standardization
of South Carolina products, which,
he said, were the laughing stock of
the national market which set the
national price for produce each day.
F. M. Easterlln of Spartanburg, de
claring that God had called him to
make the rac e for governor, contin
ued his campaign against sin and al
cohol. Neville Bennett of Bennetts-
ville flayed th e political machines of
Columbia and Charleston and called
attention to his record in support of
textile labor legislation in 10 years
as a Representative. Ben E. Adams-of
Columbia, the last speaker in the
governor’s race, proclaimed himself
to be the candidate of the people and
advocated common sense in the state
government. He promised to “turn
the light on the WPA in South Car
olina” as governor.
The major fireworks of the daj
were furnished by Olin D. Johnston
and Edgar A. Brown, candidates for
U. S. Senate. Perhaps this was be
cause they had more time and were
thus able to devote their attention to
more than their life histories. Brown,
who spoke first, described his oppon
ents, Smith and Johnston, as “bluff
and blunder,” respectively, saying
that Smith had bluffed his way
through the high offices he had held,
while Olin, poor boy, had blundered
his way through. Brown affirmed his
support of the president’s policies,
saying that he himself had been New
Dealing for the last twenty years.
He advocated a pension of $30 a
month for all people over 60, and
flayed Smith for allowing such a
Farm Bill to he written, when, Brown
Enrollment of Democrats for the
primary this month is about an
even 1,000 less than two years ago.
The 1936 enrollment was 10,716 and
8,340 of these voted in the first pri
mary. In the second primary of
1936, 7,939 voted. Enrollment in
the state in 1934 was 375,796, while
in 1932 it was 417,599. It is thought
that the new enrollment for the
state this year will be well under
400,000.
An analysis of th e enrollment
shows for the city 1,952, for the
mills, 1,779, rural, 16,107. Enroll
ment for the 1st district is 6,862, se

County Farm Tenants
Newberry county, along with sev
eral others, has been admitted to share
in the Bankhead-Jones Tenant Act,
according to Eugene H. Spearman,
county supervisor of th e Farm Se
curity admiriistration. Applications
should be filed with him not later
than August 31st of this year.
Under the Bankhead-Jones Act
tenant farmers who can prov e worthy
of the aid, may select a farm and
have it financed entirely by the gov
ernment. The loan is paid back over
a period of 40 years.
This is an excellent opportunity
for a number of industrious New
berry county tenant farmers to own
their own farm. The annual pay
ments are small and with reasonable
diligence the tenant will have no
trouble paying for the farm.
Less than 30 days are left in which
to make application and those inter
ested should see Mr. Spearman at
once.

LIONS CLUB WILL SPONSOR
BOY SCOUTS
Members of the 'Lions club voted
themselves official sponsors of the
Boy Scout troop No. 2 at the regular
meeting Tuesday evening. The troop
was formerly sponsored by the Amer
ican legion post.
The main speaker on the evening’s
program was Hubert Setzler, recent
ly appointed assistant athletic di
rector at the college. Mr. Setzler
speke on the subject of the new ath
letics program of the college.
R. G. Wallace, president, presided

CHANGE RESIDENCES
The following Newberrians have
changed residences recently:
Mr. and Mrs. J. C. Carpenter have
moved from Hunt street to 1901 Mc-
Kibben street.
Dr. and Mrs. Arthur Welling have
taken a residence at 1933 Nance
street, the house recently occupied
by Mr. and Mrs. O. S. Luthi.
J. H. Wilson has moved from 2001
College to 1506 Caldwell street.
Fuller Spotts is now living at 1732
Harris street.
Mr. and Mrs. Henry Cousins have

ton Taylors on Mayer avenue. They
moved from Harrington street.
ASPIRANTS FOR OVERNOR

CITY PARK
The regular monthly meeting of

park. At that time, the ladies of

barbecue dinner. The meeting be
gins at 8 o’clock.
said, he could have written his own
ticket. He also severely criticized
Smith for the statement that a per
son could live comfortably in the
South for fifty cents a day.
Governor JohnsHdn defied Brown
to show a single labor bill h e had
introduced into the legislature and
Smith to show where he had intro
duced a bill into the Senate to help
the cotton mill boys, at the same time
calling attention to the 17 labor bills
passed during “my administration,
and they say I haven’t done any
thing!” The governor crawfished on
his 100 percentism for Roosevelt,
saying that that applied to the presi
dent’s great humanitarian program.
Senator Smith, who had accepted
invitation to speak, was momentarily
expected throughout the day but
failed to arrive.
Th e barbecue that is associated
with these annual gatherings was
prepared by the local School Im
provement association, of which Mrs.
W. B. Boinest, Jr., is president, for
th e benefit of the school. A pig foot
stew was sponsored by the local ball
club on Friday night. The success of
the annual affair, more than to any
other one man, is largely due to J.
Walter Richardson, Columbia, of the
Broad River Power Company, who
has spent a great deal of time and
effort to advertise the occasion and
to make it indeed the “largest and
most famous political rally in the
SUte.”
The eight aspirants for governor,
three for lieutenant governor, two
for state treasurer, and James H.
Hope, state superintendent of educa
tion spoke before a crowd of about
700 citizens Tuesday morning in the
high school auditorium in the first
official call in the Piedmont section
of th e state.
The candidates spoke Tuesday
evening at the Willowbrook park
where several hundred turned out to
hear the addresses which were
somewhat briefer than those of the
morning meeting.
Contrary to the expectations that
the candidates would release new
bombs in the first gathering in the
upper part of the state, few new is
sues were brought up in the local
meetings.
BARBECUE PIT AT PARK
The public will be very glad to
know that a barbecue pit has been
built at the Margaret Hunter Park
3 feet wide and 12 feet long. All
who are interested in cooking a barbe
cue of chicken or pork will be most
interested in using this pit.
Telephone Mrs. J. P. Sheely for
pit and table reservation. Any or
ganization may use this convenience
at -Margaret Hunter Park free of
charge. If oak wood is needed, those
using the pit for big barbecues will
be expected to furnish wood. The
Board of Control invites the public
to th e park at all times and urges
parties and organizations to us® the
two pits, pavilions and tables. Or
ganizations may serve meals at the
park for pay, if approval is given by
the Board of Control.
On Monday night, August 8, 1933,
th e Fiah and Game Association will
enjoy a barbecue chicken supper
served by the Missionary Society of
Oakland Lutheran Church. A fine
supper and much fun is in store for
those who attend.
Mrs. J. D. Crooks and daughter,
Barbara, have returned to their home

with relatives here.
United States Seator E. D.
Smith wired Secretary of Agri
culture Wallace Wednesday to
“do everything possible” to expe
dite payment of the three-cent
cotton subsidy to farmers on the
1937 production.
The text of his telegram fol
lows:
“Just before I left Washing
ton in June you assured me that
every possible effort would be
mad e to expedite payment of
three-cent cotton subsidy to far
mers on 1937 production.
“At this particular time of the
year, South Carolina growers
need cash to pay cotton pickers
and meet other expenses neces
sary to move their new crop to
market. Please do everything
possible to get these checks out
this month and advise me if I can
give such assurance to South
Carolina farmers.”

WHITMIRE NOTES
By MRS. W. W. LEWIS
What’s that old saying about get
ting your hands smeared with priter’s
ink? Once it happens you’ll never
have clean hands? Mine will never
look like a lady’s should look, I fear,
what with picking peaches, and bott
ling blackberry wine, and now using
a typewriter with twelve months ac
cumulation of dust and rust and cak
ed ink. But I think it’s about time
for some notes from Whitmire to ap
pear ip {Hint in tlye Sun—so here
goes:
Marguerite Crawford has been hav
ing a house party and so has Dorothy
Simpson, and to all appearances they
have been having a grand time, with
swimming parties, and dates and
bridge parties, not to mention just
riding around. Marguerite’s guests
were school mates of hers at Converse
College.
Dorothy Simpson’s visitors were
Erskine College friends.
Mr. and Mrs. R. C. Lake and their
three fine sons, Kemper, Bob, and
John are on an extended vacation
visit with Mr. Lake’s brother in Hot
Springs, Ark. The sisters, Mrs. John
McKeown and Mrs. Harold Wise of
Little Mountain with the latter’s sons,
Harold Lake and William, are also in
Hot Springs, so they are having some
thing of a family reunion, and writ*
home that they are having a grand
time and nobody seems to know when
they’ll be coming home.
We’ve been living in Newberry
County for many years now, but
Saturday past was my first trip to
the famed Jolly Street political feast,
and we arrived too lat e the hear the
first five or six gubernatorial candi
dates make their pleas for votes, but
we did hear two would-like-to-be sena
tors berate each other and the absen
tee incumbent. Was chiefly impress
ed with the patience of the huge
crowd waiting hours upon hours, it
seemed to me, for Senator Smith to
arrive to defend himself, and perhaps,
from accounts of other campaign
meetings, to fire a few broadsides of
his own at his opponents. It was a
hot day and everybody there was hot.
Those men who left home with coats,
and wore them hanging over a should
er or first on one arm and them the
other looked tired and more harrass-
ed by their burden than those moth
ers who had their nursing babies with
them. Remarkably enough, I don’t
recall hearing a single baby cry, nor
seeing a single baby kissed.
Among those from Whitmire at
tending were, the S. A. Jeters, the
W. C. Scotts, Captain Zach Suber,
Mayor Claud Gilliam, State Senator
Marvin E. Abrams, R. H. Hatton, R.
C. Rikard, and George Bullard.
There were perhaps many others
but I didn’t see them.
Mrs. Walter Suber carried her three
attractive children, Margaret Martin
and the twins, Polly-Rankin and
Shell, and their nurse to Greenville
Tuesday to sp^nd the day with her
parents, Mr. and Mrs. J. Robert Mar
tin.
Mrs. John Barnwell had the misfor
tune to break her bifocals Monday
afternoon so had to go to Charlotte
Tuesday to have them replaced. She
stopped by to see her sister, Mrs.
Fred Bell, in Rock Hill and found
that she had just broken her glasses
also, so she went along with Mrs.
20 YEARS AGO
Th e German retreat continues un
abated with the allies everywhere in
hot pursuit. Apparently the situa
tion now has resolved itself into a
race for the northern bank of the
Aisne river by the German armies
in order to escape further large
losses of men made prisoners. Gen
eral Pershing in his communication
says the Americans alone have tak
en 8,400 prisoners and in addition 183
guns.
Grandpa Parr it is now; little

These be times when there is need
for men in the lead; but according
to the newspaper reports, those who
are aspiring to the highest elective
offices, state and national, are com
porting themselves in a manner that
would not be creditable to children.
The issue seems to be, not what you
stand for, or what have you to pro
pose, but who do you propose to
vote for? It is not a question of
what you have to say yourself; but
do you approve or disapprove of
what someone else has said. The
