"A man with a gift of gab is more likely to succeed in politics than a ijaan who has plenty of ideas but no ability to express them." If a man has ideas he better not ekpress the^n if he wants to be eiected by popular vote. The. people as a r$le prefei^he man who has no ideas and no inifcjktiv-e and no progressivei | 2 > npss, but lather prefer the man who id willing to go along in the same old r^t trod by our fathers for many generations back. Don't do things if you t want to be:a successful politician, but fool the people all the time. ' *- " ? in PVi Qrl Attp A ia.ay w<u> ruu uu xa ? the other day and fatally injured by an automobile. She was getting off a street car when a speeding automobile came along with the fatal result. In some cities an automobile must stop or slow up in passing a street car. The wonder is some one has not been killed in Columbia in this same way. If automobile drivers are not more careful it is going to result" in the passage and enforcement of such stringent laws that there will be no pleasure in driving a car at all. And it he rione. If these reckless driv ers have no regard for their own life or limb they should be made to respect the life and limb of others. As to motorcycles they seem to us to be more dangerous than the automobile and they certainly are a law unto themselves. Even the town ordinance as to these machines is not Ac to stnn or sneed. The CUiUl VVU. J- ^ town of Newberry has an ordinance that all self propelled vehicles must st<jpj at one. corner, hut it is enforced to {apply only to automobiles. And mofei automobiles cross the street be lore* they stop. Just about as well wait until they reached the next corner .And maybe a motorcycle is not a T self ipropelled vehicle in th-e meaning i i* of the statute made and provided. And *n the iaternretaion of the officials. Greenville has organized a "boosters club among the traveling men and they are going to do things for Greerville.:' "Why not a boosters club among -men nf \r<=>Tchprrv -who do not trav 1UVU V*. A?VT. v el. It is very difficult to get any boosting out of a man who never travels. I?e becomes entirely satisfied with 4 v' - * himself and his surroundings and soon is an enemy to all progress and development. He may not think he is himself but he is unconsciously so. A mighty fine time to use the split log drag. Did .you see "where a merchant in some town?not Newberry? gave every farmer -who would ride to ^ his store on a certain day on a split P? log drag a- pound of coffee. He was only a country merchant but in one day he had given away spme fifteen dollars worth of coffee. The farmers who did this received more direct benefit * than the merchant but they were too selfish and too stingy to do it and by not doing it they were robbing themselves. How about organizing a split log drag club?a club that will work and do things?for the county of Newberry. Supervisor Hill is doing some good work on the road to Whitmire and to % this work is due the meeting of the teachers asociation at Whitmire on Saturday. If the farmers who live along this road wi'1 only spend a few hours .after the rains and drag the road they will have a good road all the year. We thank Mr. Hill for making it possible to have such a fine meeting of the teachers as we had at Whitmire' on Saturday. ? m The public spirit and the patriotism and generosity of the gentlemen who furnished, autos at the requ-est of the county superintendent of education (and whose names are given) to transport the teachers of the county schools to Whitmire, deserve the com- j 1 mendation of all the people who are inteivsted in the education of the children .
