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.
