WALHALLA, H. C.:
WICRNKHOA V, MAY \1H, UM il.
\ RF.AI, ILLUSTRATION.
Our people were given lasl Sun
day a nal Illustration of the great
need ol' a large and commodious au
ditorium, lt is a mighty bad adver
tisement for.a town when people
from the outlying communities come
in on speeial occasions and lind them
selves crowded oui and unable to
hear or see thal tor which lin y came.
Many of ?mr citizens of the town
were ?lau disappointed Sunday, bul
that is not nearly so had as the dis
appointing of our friends and neigh
bors fiem <mt oi town
Wo have not heard recently any
thing with reference lo tho school
auditorium, but if any demonstra
tion was needed to hiing home to us
the absolute necessity of adoiiuato
accommodations for audiences on
special occasions, that demonstration
was given last Sunday.
AN Oil NOE or PREVENTION'.
In a conversation Monday with a
gentleman who does not Jive in tho
town of Walhalla, but who had occa
sion to he in town last Sunday, and
walked out. about the outskirts, our
attention was called to tho horrible
(condition of th?' public slaughter
pen, which ls located almost on the
lu wu line. The conditions ho de
gcrlbes are certainly deplorable, and
if but a tenth as bad as be described,
they are entirely deserving of tho
tributo he paid them: "A menace to
health and a disgrace." We mention
here this matter in order that those
tn authority may have public knowl
edge of a condition needing atten
tion.
And it may not bo amiss to call
attention also, in advance of bad
conditions, to another source of men
ace- the emptying place of the coun
ty sewerage. We do not know what
conditions aro there now. but in
times past they have become ex
tremely obnoxious to residents near
and far. lt will be well to prevent,
by precautionary measures, this
place again becoming a breeding
place for mosquitoes and an Incuba
tor for germs. "An ounce of pre
vention is worth a pound of cure."
THE HOV SCOUTS.
'lt ?? organization of the Hov Scouts
in Walhalla has been heralded with
no sn?.,11 degree of pleasure or. the
pan citizens generally, ami it is
to he hoped that the organization
will grow and prosper. fulllUing the
mission for which.it was Intended.
Wv lind these pertinent obligations
U.iOng the things to wliich Hoy
Scouts subscribe when they join tho
organization :
I will do ni j duty to Qod and the
king.I will do my best to
help others, whatever it costs me.
. . . . I know the Seoul la w and will
obey lt." ... . "A Scout's honor is
to he trusted. . . The Scout's
duty i> to be useful and to help oth
ers.A Stout ls courteous. . .
. . A Scout is thrifty."
And yet we understand that the
natue "Stout" does not nie.m all that
it should her?- in Walhalla Take,
for instance, an occurrence recently
at the ope i house, when there was
no small demonstration of bad ?rnler.
"Is there no way to stop this?" was
asked "No." was the reply, "they
are i; ,. Scouts."
What do you think ?>f that, boys?
The organization of Hoy Scouts
itrnd> for all that is good, and noble,
Slid tl ie To !>e i Hov Scout tells to
the world that the owner of the title
I? ;. gentlemanly hoy a boy to whom
anything mean, or little, or ungentle
manly, is an offense,
Aro you a Soy Stout, young
friend? Keep jour obligation ever
before you. and never let it be said,
In derision. "He is a Hoy Scout; you
can do nothing."
The News and Courier's "Panama
Canal Edition" issued last Friday
was a hummer-lu ninety-two pages
bristling from beginning to end with
good, live matter on timely subject?
pertaining to the commercial worth
and growth of Charleston and the
Stato at large. It was a conmpre
henslve resume of what our State
and chief city aro now and hope to
become in the near future. The
News and Courier may well rongrat
nlate itself upon having rendered its
home city and the State a real service
in putting Important facts so attract
ively before the outside world.
