WILLIAM MOFFATT GRIER
AS AN EDUCATOR
The South Carolina Education, a J
monthly journal published by the
extension Department of the South
Carolina University as a monthly
and edited by Dr. Patterson Wardlaw,
an Alumnus of Erskine College
has as its leading article in the October
number, a sketch of William I
Moffatt Grier as an Educator. This
article is written by Dr. I. McCain
of Erskine, a colaborer for years of
Dr. Grier. It has evidently been a labor
of love on the part of Dr. McCain.
The task has been exceptionally
well performed. Dr. McCain says:
"As this article is concerned mainly
with the educational work of Dr.
Grier, it will be necessary for me to
give only such biographical details
as seems to throw light on this
work."
Dr. McCain introduces into this
sketch some fine things connected
with the life work of Dr. Grier. It is
history that ought to be preserved.
The conception and the execution of

this work does credit to ur. warn?

of a great and good man and to
Erskine College, the mother of all
three.?A. R. Presbyterian.

Orlando, Fla., Nov. 3.?The fu
casualty list of Ocoee, 12 miles froi
here where two white men wer
shot to death and one negro lynche
yesterday in an election riot an
several negroes perished when th
buildings in which they sought she
ter were burned and not reache
here tonight. Armed white me
were reported patrolling the regio
and closing in on negroes who fie
to the woods, the pursuit being an
companied by intermittent firing.
More than 20 buildings in th

ports from Ocoee tonight said ths
explosion of considerable amount c
ammunition occurred as the flame
swept the buildings and that nuxr
Urous fire arms were found in th
ruins later. Some reports said fiV
negroes died in the flames. One nt
gro woman was among these, it wa
said but no children.
The battle was precipitated by a1
tempt of July Perry, a negro to vot
after he had been refused the pri\
ilege by election judges on th
ground that he had not paid his pol
tax. He returned later armed wit
a shot gun but it was taken fror
him and he was driven away.
After dark last night, accordini
to reports from the scene, Perr
again approached the polls accom
panied by a number of other ne
groes. The white citizens at one
formed a posse and dispersed th
negroes who fled to the negro settle
ment. The posse followed and wit
nesses said the negroes opened fir
from the building. A member of th
posse was wounded, but reinforce
ments arrived and it proceede
when the firing became general.
The attackers centered on Perry'
house intent upon arrest. Two of th
white men, Leo Bogard * and Elme
McDaniels, both former soldier;
were killed in the back yard of th
house, their bodies being foun
hours later.
A negro said seven or eight anr
ed negroes were in the Perry hous
which ultimately was set on fire t
dislodge them, the flames spreadin
to ther buildings.
Perry himself apparently was caj
I utred and later taken by a mob an
lynched. It was stated tonight tha
he was taken from an automobile i
! which he was being carried to th
jail after having been treated at
hospital. Details of his capture wer
lacking.

J. C. Arnold, printer and linotype

"About a year and a half ago,"

tacks of stomach trouble, which conJ
tinued getting worse until my liver

one recommended The Reese Formula
R-ll. By this time I had given up
hopes but began taking The Reese
ss Formula R-ll. I had no confidence
in it or anything else. Imagine my
e surprise when after taking half of

improve. I continued taking it and

ey I
^ | London, Nov. 4.?Winston Spenne
cer Churchill, secretary for war, in
an address today commented on the
tQ American elections. He said that the
se vast majority returned indicated the
American people's repudiation of
anything approaching Lenin-Trotzy
^ radicalism. For a long time, said
the secretary, England has been accustomed
to see the forces of good
will between Great Britain and the
