Washington, May 18.-Only 'good 'O? the service' will be considered in selecting the men from among the ?hree highest for certification to the president -for appointment as post master, Pastmaster General Hays de clared today in discussing the recent ?executive order. of President Hard ing on the matter. Congressmen and senators will naturally be heard by the departments as to the qualifica tions of applicants, Mr. Hays said, adding that this meant democrats as .well as republicans. ? Selections made by the civil ser vice commissioner under President Wilson but not .confirmed by the .senate will be ignored and new ex aminations held for such vacancies, the postmaster general asserted. There are about 5,000 vacancies and the post office department is now making a list by states to certify to the civil service commission. Concerning Conditions of Jails - 7,356 commitments were made to the county jails of ,South Carolina from June 30, 1919 ,to June 30, 1920, according to reports sent by all the sheriffs of the state to the Board; of Public Welfare. This is one commitment for every 228 per sons in the state as given by the cen sus of 1920. Even though one per son may be committed more than :once for the same offense, these re ports show the amount of serious de linquency in the state. "The cost of crime is one of the .most tremendous drains upon the re sources of our country, says Thomas Mott Osborne, the noted authority ?upon prisons and prison manage ment. "No one has yet been able to give authoritatively the total expense to our taxpayers of the jails, prisons, courts, reformatories, and law en forcement officers, but all estimates indicate that it requires a large pro portion vof public expenditure." As long as they are over seven thousand commitments to the county jails of the state, the condition of these jails should be of grave con cern to the humane, public spirited citizens of South Carolina. A meet ing of persons interested in this and other social problems is to be held at Greenwood on June 1. The meet ings wlil be open to the public and the citizens of Abbeville, Greenwood, Newberry, McCormick and Edgefield counties are especially urged to be present. FOR SALE: A roller-top desk.

Or, if a chicken's chick hatched a chickadee, How could a little horsefly Away with a great big singletree Whose trunk was full of bark in July? If a base ball bat grew to be a bat tering ram, And a ramrod spoke to a hub, How could you get a wagon a dog's tail worth Adam . If for Robert? you used bob, which ' means a stub? If a hoodoo and a dodo were on the run, And his doo hit a McAdoo, Then his son Would row Will son, Out in a tin can ewe. If a hand saw the way a man saw, Would a seesaw sag when seen, If a butternut was a buttercup's grandpa, Would a catnip a sparrow cuss green? If a wildcat wed a pussywillow Would he care a dam of cement If a crocus turned into a catapillar So his pants were not in arrears with their rent? . W. S. G. HEATH. Beat the Boll Weevil.

We have reduced the price in keeping with other commodities and on account of stringency of the mon ey market we will exchange some of them for substantial country pro duce. And don't wait for a rain as we will tell you how to make them live in dry weather, then when the rain does come* they will be ready to grow rapidly, see? Come on and put them out and let them work while you sleep. C. W. WATSON, Edgefield, S. C. 6-1-lt For ten days we are going to sell Stone's Celebrated pound cake for 10 cents each.

SPEAK OUT FOR DISARMAMENT Word has quietly come from va rious dependable sources in Washing ton that we are to blame for the pas sage in the House of that appalling $396,000,000 Appropriation Bill; that Floor Leader Mondell, support ing the President's position that peace must come before disarmament, could not have held the House in line if we had done our part. If, in short, we had showered letters and tele grams on our congressmen telling them that as women and as citizens we are not willing to wait. At the Cleveland Convention the League of Women Voters passed a resolution urging that the United? ment toward international disarma ment. Its delegation presented the resolution at Washington But that is not enough. There rests on the league membership a solemn obligation to make good *on that resolution ; to let Congress know in words how strong ly it feels about this first step toward world peace. For a while there are different' shades of opinion about disarmament, a first step is all that most of the women's organizations ask; they want agreement between the United States, Japan and Great Britain not to build more ships-that first of all. There is no real reason to believe the three powers are not ready: Great Britain would welcome the financial relief; Japan says, through her Min ister .of the Navy, that she is willing to reduce ship-building. Why not, then? We can make it so if we will. Let the senate know beyond the shadow of a doubt our will toward disarma ment. TOBACCO SMOKE NOT A DIS INFECTANT. The apologists for tobacco have long maintained that tobacco smoke is a valuable antiseptic and preser vative; that by destroying germs it protects the smoker against sore ;hro?t and preseoves the teeth. Ac :ording to the London Lancet (Oct. i JO, 1920), these claims have been ;horoughly disproved by the learned Professor Puntoni, of the University )f Rome, who undertook a series of ixperiments for the purpose of de- . ;ermining the real effect of tobacco ?moke as a disinfectant of the mouth. ' 3e found, first of all that while to >acco smoke seeemd to exercise some ] lecided disinfectant properties when ipplied to bacteria in a glass flask, ;he same results were not produced n the mouth of the smoker. The best hat could be said for tobacco as a lisinfectant was that when used in 3 rery large quantities some very fee- ] jlemicro-organisms, those with least < .esistance, might be hindered from j levelopment; but such organisms as ( ;he typhoid bacillus and other vigor- < )us bacteria were found to be unaf fected by the tobacco smoke. It was ( ilso found th-* the slight disinfecting , jroperties of tobacco smoke were not ^ lue to nicotine or even to the so-call- , ;d tar products, but to formaldehyde ( md pyrrol. ( The proprietors of the bus lines of Mew York City have shown just con- < .ideratioon for the sensibilities of < ;he great non-smoking public who \ still outnumber the smokers, by es- , ;ablishing a rule that smokers who ride on top pf the buses must occupy , ;he back seats. 1 The average smoker seems to en- 1 joy nothing better than to find a areezy place where he can start a i long line of smudge and insult the i nostrils of a hundred or more people by compelling them to inhale his : stale and poison-laden breath. If the ? non-smokers of the country, includ- : ing the. women, would abandon their amiable tolerance of the disgusting smoke habit and make an organized protest against patrons of the weed they could be made to restrict their indulgence to conditions and places which would enable them to" enjoy a monopoly of the narcotic poisoning, thus relieving others of the neces sity of participating in their degrad ing practice. The popular mind is not quite ready for such a movement, but the time will certainly come when an enlightened public will de mand of the smoker that he exercise due regard for the feelings of those who prefer pure air to a poison laden atmosphere.
