!*?? > anil Jcbis. Entered at the Postoffice at NewWry, S. C., as 2nd class matter, E. H. AULL, EDITOR. Friday, April 30, 1915. State Superintendent of Education Swearingen, in his letter to Mr. Brown; says, in speaking of the office of count}' superintendent of education for Newberry county: "I am frank to say that this situation is a troublesome one." If the State board fcas trouble in selecting a superintendent for Newberry why not ask a referendum and let the people say whom they wan: and then the board could name him. The people were competent to selecr a State- superintendent and have selected county superintendents, why not 2ivp them a cfcance at this one, if it so troublesome to the State board? The remainder of the term is two years, which was the full term heretofore. The people will have to select the successor to whomsoever tine board might name. They know the men and the conditions, and we oeneve mey are competent to say whom they want at this time. We had clean-up week Here about ten days ago. Tfre Herald and News suggested then that the city and other associations and the people in the K?cinooc c-or>f ij-in ch/Mllfl CAt thA T)aC? UU01UVOO CVVb?VU ?J*-V WW 4 _ We suppose they have done so. A few days ago we had occasion to attend a lodge meeting in Fraternity Hall building. In going to the lodge room you lhave to pass through the nf tno tonnnd flnrvr nf this building. We would suggest that the ^ health officer, if he has authority, if not that the Civic association, if it fcas tfce authority, if not that the custodian of the building, if there is one, .pass throug^this,corridor and open his eyes. Th^remains of a dinner or a suDDer in baskets, and other trash, present a very unsightly appearance in in this corridor, and we sfoould think was not very sanitary. We believe it is not in the Bible, "but some great person coined the phorism or the sentence, which has a great meaning, that "Cleanliness is next to godliness. Our esteemed young friend, Bell, of the York News, in speaking of Che position of The Herald and News on the asylum matter, concludes an article by saying: "We will argue this case at more length with the esteemed Col. Aull when the scribes get together at Chick Springs." Nay, nay, young friend. You will not argue anything with us, if we are so fortunate to get to Chick Springs wihen the scribes gather. If we go we are going to rest and enjoy the good fellowship of the brethren and the sistren. We are not going to argue anything. In this day of law and order we want to see law obeyed and order enforced in all things % and when we see it going wrong we are going to say so. We notice that tfoe foreman of the grand jury of Laurens has called the sheriff and the rural police and the solicitor to meet with him at Laurens on the 3rd of May, and he propounds a number ot questions to the solicitor, mostly, of course, about liquor, as that seems to be tibe only thing that needs looking after these days, but he does desire information on a few mmoi things such as if it is a violation oi the law for a merchant to keep on h^ shelves several bottles or several cases of ginger containing more than I per cent o? alcohol, and the statute against selling merchandise on Sundayf and ii a cold drink stand run in a blacksmith sfcop would come under the same provisions of the law as a mercantile establishment, and if a merchant took a friend in his store on Sunday and gave him a cold drink if he would be violating the law. Well, these are very important and weighty questions and should lave the earnest consideration of tfhe law officers. In fact, we have about come to the conclusion that about the only law that is to be enforced now is the one against selling liquor. The baby show which is scheduled to be held in Newberry on May 8, is different from other baby shows ot s S which we have read or wfoich we may have seen. The babies in this contest are to be examined by experts as to j their physical condition and will be scored in that way. It is not so much thA Annpara.nce of tibe baby and not : at all the attire which the baby maywear, but its physical defects and perfections are to be counted, am', if there are defects the mothers w:ii be told j . what they are, and in tinis way they i may be cured while the baby is yet j ' young. So, even the baby that does I not receive the prize may get the | ' no + tpt Knnafit frr?m rho ellAlV Tt i<? ! ?1 UCUV.IH JLi vui .. | ' said that most all children have some I physical defect or other and experts j 1 will be here to look the babies over i I and those with defects will have an j opportunitv to have the defects cared. ! i Be sure to enter your baby and make j the contest a lively one. I Tfr.ere was a good rain at Greenwood on Wednesday afternoon, and Wednesday it was raining at Chappells as the train came along. The oat crop will suffer very much if it does not get rain very soon. l . Our good friend, Col. Aull, of Trie | Newberry Herald and News, repro-' duces our remarks on the free advertising graft, calling us the Charlotte Observer. We plead ^ot guilty of being the esteemed Charlotte Observer. But we will forgive the Colonel, and give our readers the benefit of his pnmmprifc rvn priitnrial f/vr tllPV strike the spot. The above is from tfre Bamberg Herald. We think the article in question was copied from another paper than the Charlotte Observer, wi'nich paper gave credit to the Observer. We try very hard to give proper credit. We are pleased that tfce Herald called our at tention to the error. The article was a good one and it gives us pleasure to give the Herald the credit it deserves. We desire to call attention to the educational page in this issue. It contains a number of very fine articles that will be of help to those engaged in school work in the countv and will be good reading for any one, because we are all interested in Che schools.

Over three years later Mr. Rivers said: "The cure Doan's Kidney Pills brought me has been permanent.

Philadelphia Record. Something more tJ-an signs of "vitality appear in the trade in cotton goods, It might be suspected, indeed, of con. siderable activity and prosperity il the Republicans did not know so welJ that nothing is prosperous, and everything is paralyzed by the dreadful Democrats. Among the items of news regarding the cotton industry published in the last few years is tine announcement of the census bureau that the amount 01 cotton consumed in March was 6,00C bales greater than in any other month for two and a half years, and 30,605 bales more than were used in March 1914. The decrease for eight months was less than 5 per cent. A dispatch from -New ceaiora sajs. "The improved sentiment in cotton mil! share circles, noted in these columns during the last few weeks, is still much in evidence. . . . Whenever sales are made they are almost always at two or three points up from t!. e last previous sale." The dispatch goes on to say that "some New Bedford issues have gone to new higfi levels for this year, and one or twc of the new-est mills !have established new high records for all times up tc the present." Fall River shares are less active, but several tinat have lately advanced UAf tnree to nve pomis a.ie juaiacu. wj.ferings of Fall River shares, especially of the higher-priced stocks, are very scarce. Present holders are encouraged by the recent improvement in the print cloth market to hold on to their certificates." The dry goods market report of th-3 New York Journal of Commerce last week said: "Several cotton goods mer chants wno nave Deen aouDiiui 01 tne permanency of the recent uplift in cotton goods are beginning to talk more encouragingly." The dry goods market report of the Commercial and Financial Chronicle says: "Manufacturers of staple cotton goods are still making revisions in their price lists, and advances ranging from one-half cent to 2 1-2 cents have been recorded on certain lines of wide si-eetinLS. . . . Mills are reported to be well under order for three or four months to come . . . An active demand is reported for print cloths. Buyers have c'er.ne! up spot supplies and are now bidding for goods for late delivery. 'Many mills are sold six weeks to two months ahead, and are asking advances of one-fourth cent or more on goods for delivery beyond that time." On the whole, the commercial re?nnt tVmsp made on tine editorial I.-J pages of Republican newspapers?indicate that considerable business is going on. But the effect of the war upon the trade of many foreign nations has reduced our exports of cotton cloths in eight months about 71,000,000 yards, or $4,000,000. On the other hand, tlhe exports of cotton wearing apparel for eight months have increased from $6,841,388 to $18,634,428. Much the largest increase in the value of exports 4 ?
