FOR MILL EMPLOYEES , Honea Path, Nov. 21.?The wages < of the operatives at the Chiquola mill have been raised voluntarily by the president, Mr. James D. Hammett, , a notice to that effect having been , posted at mill a few days ago. The , increase, so we are informed, is more j than ten per cent This act on the , part of Mrr. Hammett is highly ap- , predated by the hundreds of em- , ployees. We do not believe there is , a textile plant in the South where j there is less friction between the .' management and the help than at , this millv This is due in a large measure to the fact that the presi- ( dent is always looking out for the , welfare and comfort of his help.

LOYALTY TO PYTHIANISM. dt Pi South Carolina Pythian. a One of the most important thoughts. wl that should confront a member of he J th Kpights of Pythias is loyalty to his m Order.

Now comes the question, "What is palty to our Order?" It does not ean to join, to become a full mem:r, attend the meetings a little lile, and then drift away as many us do. A loyal Pythian is not one 10 simply pays his dues at the regur time, but is | never seen in the >dge room, and never knows of the isiness side of the Order. The most striking thought or idea what a loyal Pythian is, is one who akes the creed a part of his inner e; who sets part of his time apart attend nis Lodge meetings and ingle socially with his brother memrs. In doing this, he constantly ts a broader view of Pythianism d learns the need of greater fracialism. A loyal Pythian is one who always rows his whole heart and soul into ihianism and continually grows in e graces of Knighthood. Edwin >oth, one of the world's greatest igedians, made this beautiful trite to the tragedy of his beloved der: "In every realm of thought, all my research aijd study, in my alysis of Shakespeare, in my earst determination to make ' these Eiys appear real upon the mimic ige, I have never found tragedy real, so sublime, so magnificent, the legend of Hiram. It is subance without shadow, the manifest sstiny of life, which requires ,no cture and scarcely a word to make lasting impression upon any one bo can understand.

PEED OS SOUTH CAROLINA | HC 1 KITQ I The N | ADVERTISED $ Call and Le II I ITURE CC THE PYTHIAN PRESS. I South Carolina Pythian. This is the age of impatience and hurry?the age of the automobile and airship. The tendency of the times is to rush, to exercise impatience in all things. It is seen everywhere from th4 restless school-boy, ' shifting around in his seat, to ;the business man wh6 works, eats' and sleeps with his troubles always present. ' It is just the time for the Pythian press to make a plea for patience in fVto affaire n-f li'fa fVin faln?r? r\f V??v va ?1AV| KUW uamiig vi uiuic time and the doing of things in a better way. It may be said truthfully that many of the shortcomings in fraternity, both in the lodge room and in daily practice are due to the ever-running and ever-busy spirit that has swept over the American people like a contagion. ! Men do not take time to cultivate the finer things of life. Money-making mania or social-climbing^ clamor has become so deep-rooted in the average mind, that culture, kingliness of living and practice of true fraternity are rare. This opens a door of opportunity to the Pythian press of this country that is replete with big prospects. Brethren of the Order, the daily and nightly toil of the editor of your Domain organ is tjruly a work of love. That publication that you grab for a half-hour's reading after dinner before you go out for an evening's entertainment was produced in the most painstaking manner and after many hours of deep thinking, and is born of a sincere desire to bring you a message that will cause the bloodred corpuscles to move a bit faster to overcbme that mania inspired by the modern method flf living. T? m 1 ?m M Uio* 4-oolr T# XjUlUiig u juunuii ID a ui( MW&. AX there is a joke, don't accuse the editor of being rattle-brained?and if there are no jokes, don't say that he ' is a fossil. -If there is much contri1 buted matter don't accuse the editor 1 of being too lazy to write, and if there is much original copy don't charge that there is too little selection. The Domain publication is youi paper. It is as much of your Pythian duty to support it as it is to recognize any other Pythian obligation. .By support is not meant simply a mavment of the annual subscription price?if there be any. The lodgeman who only pays his dues is not the best member W.ien you are ready to register a kick because there is little news, just ask yourself if you ever in your whole life gave one news item. Pythian publications are truly cooperative. The work of the whole, each doing his part, makes the perfect production. You cannot . consistently find fault with the editor two hundred miles away when he does not print the story of your big initiation or successful social session. He is not a mind reader, and none of the ofiices are equipped with periscopes, wireless or dictographs. Read your Domain paper, and when through with it give it to your neighbor, who perhaps is not a member of the Order because you have failed in your duty. If the edition is a good one, don't be a grouch, spend two cents and five minutes of your time to tell the editor about it. If it is not up to the expectations, sit down and write an article and help to make the next issue better.?The Insurance Department News. >0SI1 / ENCAI ational Stej IN ALL LEADING t Us Demonstrate J old Only E )MPANY NEW.
