Law Protecting Fish.
As the law enacted for the pro
tection of fish has been violated in
the county, The Advertiser has
been requested to publish that sec
tion of the law which prohibits
seining, etc. The following is the
text of the law which was enacted
in 1911:
Sec. 2. That hereafter, during
the months of April, May, June
and July, no person or persons
shall cast, draw, fasten or otherwise
make use of any seine or drift net,
fyke net of any other description,
or use any other appliances for the
catching of game fish, except hook
and line and ordinary bait, or by
spoon, or by artificial fly, or by
phantom minnow, or by artificial
bait. For the violation of this sec
tion the party so violating shall be
fined (?'20.00) dollars, or be impris
oned ^30) days for each offense:
Provided, that this section shall not
ipply to such pei son or persons as
are catching game fish with a net or
Dther appliances for the purpose of
stocking a pond or other stream,
ind not for commercial purposes:
Provided, also, That any or all per
sons engaged in catching game fish
for the purpose of stocking a pond
or stream must notify the nearest
magistrate of his or their purpose
to so catch the fish: Provided, fur
ther, That this shall not prohibit
the catching of any kind of fish
in a private pond not erected on a
navigable stream in any manner by
the owner of such pond or by per
mission of owner at any season of
the year.
Free Ads No More
The Daily Journal has said time
Mid again that it would not run ads
free where there was a charge for
admission to make money for any
purpose whatever, but it seems bard
for us to enforce this rule. Neverthe
less, we expect to keep on hammer
ing at it and we hope that the day
will come when people will learn
not to ask us to give our space to
them; for we shall refuse in every
instance. And we give fair warning
that there is no use in anyone's feel
ings being hurt about it. It is not
a matter of accommodation but of
business pure and simple. No one
goes into a store and asks merchants
to giveaway their merchandise, and
no one should ask a newspaper to
give away the space which is its
means for making ends meet. Peo
ple should think too much of them
selves to make such a request.
Greenwood Journal.
The jury, after long deliberation,
seemed unable to agree in a per
fectly clear case. The judge, thor
oughly exasperated at the delay,
said:
"I discharge this jury."
One sensitive juror, indignant at
what he considered a rebuke, faced
the judge.
You can't discharge me, he said
with a tone of conviction."
^And why not, inquired the judge
in surprise.
"Because, announced the juror,
pointing to the lawyer for the de
fense, I was hired by that man
there!"-Ladies Home Journal.

News From Pleona.
One of the grandest features of
:he season was the birthday recep
tion given to Miss Lillie Mayson by
aei pare its, Mr. and Mrs. R. TJ.
Mays'--, last Wednesday night. I
mall not attempt to give the details
in full as it would take one side of
pour paper to hold it but will sim
ply touch on high places and I leave
the readers to draw from their im
igination, for no one could picture
t on paper and give it justice. This
roung lady wears the sunshine of
?ontentraent ever upon her face, a
;oo? word and a smile for every
>ne and her parents are very much
levoied to her. Her popularity wa9
ividenced that night by the gift of
nany presents presented by rela
ives and friends. Supper was an
louoeed at 12 o'clock. There was a
>erfect feast to meet our eyes,
verythiug from substantial diet to
he most delicate daiuties. The la
de was most beautifully decorated
pith flowers.
Mr. Mayson has recently built an
ip-to-date residence located on a
?eautiful rise where he has a splen
lid view in every direction and it is
eell furnished for the acoomraoda
ionofhis family and friends and
m that occasion every department
pas opened for the accommodation
if the gueBts. Thc young folks
ndulged in plays while the older
mes sat by and were good wishers
o it all. Two musical instruments,
n organ and graphophone, added
o the happiness of the occisi?n,
derry children and beautiful flow
rs made us feel like this was an oc
asi?n we should all feel proud of,
od we should stamp it upon our
aemories and draw from it in the
uture. Mr. Mayson has also made
>ther improvements on his place
hat would be a credit to any man.
rVhen he is not on bis farm at work
rou can hear the busy hum of the
aw mill as it traces its way tbiough
he timber, first his own, and then
utting lumber for others.
I will say this occasion wa9 rep
esentd from Birmingham, Ala., by
dr. .Tim Gilchrist who his been
here for 7 years serving as machin
Rt in railroad shops and is now pre
mired to do any kind of work and
ve wish for Jim a prosperous fu
ure.
Next we speak of as among the
.iaitors to this sectiou and to the
eception is Mr. and Mrs. S. W.'
learns. A near glimpse of Mr.
learns will show you that he is a man
>f marked ability. He will remind
?ou very much of attorney general
jyon, weighs 200 pounds and
las a very pleasant face, is real at
.ractive. Indeed his appearance is a
rue evidence of prosperity.He runs
.he mountain city machine shop
md foundry combined does a very
extensive business and is a brother ?
A Mr. Mark Reams. He came down
in an automobile one of the latest
nodels of 1913,which weighs 2,800,
md cont hin $3010, and it is lit up
oy electricity, so you can see theit
ire few men who ride over our coun
try in such a machine as that. He
lives in Greenville, S. C.
Mr. and M . W. I. Freeman of
Princeton, Laurens county were
present. Mr. Freeman is one of the
leading farmers in Laurens county.
He made a very favorable impres
sion on all he met. ,.In conclusion
we wish to express our thanks to
Mr. and Mrs. Mayson for the hos
pitality extended all on this enjoy
ab'e occasion. All who know him
and his good wife know that it is
their daily practice to brighter:
others' lives by cheerful words and
smiles.

Death of Mrs. Parks.
Mrs. Robert H. Parks died early
Wednesday night at the hospital in
Columbia where she was taken some
time ago for special treatment. She
had been in failing health for more
than a year, i her suffering growing
more and more acute as the end ap
proached. During the long tedious
months of her illness Mrs. Parks
manifested unusual patience and
fortitude. Her faith in the Great
Physician aided her in bearing np
under the great weight of affliction.
Mrs. Parks was a devoted wife, an
affectionate, indulgent mother and
a faithful friend. Her death has al
most broken up the once happy
home over which she presided, and
the profound sympathy of the com
munity goes out to the bereaved
husband and her children, of whom
three survive her. One daughter
only, Mrs. J. A. Smith, resides at
Trenton, and two sons, Harrison
and Willie, fifteen and eight years,
respectively, reside with their fa
ther.
Before her marriage Mrs. Parks
was Miss Janie Walker, a daughter
of Mr. Felix Walker of Pleasant
Lane. She was a devout Christian,
her church membership being at
Berea. Her body was interred in
the cemetery at Antioch Thursday
afternoon, the funeral being con
ducted by Rev. J. T. Little iohn and
Rev. E. C. Bailey.
Annual Children's Day Exercis
es at McKendree.
Children's Day was observed at
McKendree ou Sunday with the
usual success. The children were
thoroughly trained and delivered
their parts in perfect order. There
was a very large crowd present, but
the people of the community had
provided a bountiful dinner, and
jvery one had a happy and profita
ble day. The order on the part of
;he people who attended was per
fect; there was no evidence of drink
ing, and the day was marked by
?etter order on the part of the large
jrowd than probably any other for
ner occasion.
