It would be a dreary and a blank old world and i would want to scatter all over creation then sure enough. I might have scattered, but there v.-as good shot in every aim and it hit the bull's eye every time. I like to change the subject. Didn't some wise guy say that variety was the suice ol' lite, and don't old Webster's dictionary change the subject right aiong, and isn't it a great book. Now, about that dog ordinance. It's a curious thing, isn't it? I am afraid that Mayor Wright and the policemen and the city re corder do not read 'The Herald and News' and the Observer, for I am sure we put it up to them right square, but I have not even heard o thof lilrA thp PTlffirfP a IIUIOV, l OUU11UVU WV ment of that law.

But these dogs?doggone 'em? they can run around here and bite ani frighten people just as much as the-' please and nothing is said about it.

I read an editorial in an old copy of Leslie's Weekly the other day on "Dress Up," and it had some few'paragraphs in it that struck me very forcibly, and though that prominent citizen who accuses me of scattering may think this is scattering, I am going to prove to him that it is not^if he will iust read what I am writing. Here is one. "We need to dress up our homes, by teaching the children of this- generation the wisdom of their fathers and the modesty of their mothers. need to dress up in our churches, by having a revival of interest in Sundav observance, the Ten I Commandments and that model peti tion which has survived all generations. the Lord's Prayer. "We need to dress up inside as well as outside and to burnish up all the homely virtues so conspicuous in the past?Truth, Honesty. Fidelity and Sincerity." "We need to dress up the business man. the banker, the farmer and the bread-winning masses to a realization of their mutual dependence upon each other. "We need, more than all to give a sood 'dressing' to the impudent intruder and di turber who stands on the street corner preaching the in/amous declaration 'Xo God and' Xo Mastor.' '"What a happy world it would be if underneath the outer garments of the well dressed were nurtured the spirit c: real service to God and .Man." Xow. don't you think these are good and worth handing on to some one else, and don't you think they will have a good influence, even a s'ileni: influence, for good? And don't you think it is well that I scattered just a little this time? And here is one I overlooked. It is as good as the rest: "Wp nppf] to rirpss nn in our federal government. We have too many demagogues taking the place of statesmen and making a pitiful exhibition of legislative incapacity." Yes, and why should be confine it to our federal government. We have 'em I ' in our State government. i i Q 1 ' And this reminds me of the provi, sion in some of our commission govI erncd town that have the recall abour. i which so much has been said by some ! folk. And that they are talking about exercising that privilege in Atlanta and Columbia and Spartanburg and possibly some other places. Well, I don't ! belie.e in it. Take Columbia. A petii tion signed by 500 voters can order an election. Seems to me there are about] 2.0u0 voters in Columbia. There is always a dissatisfied minority and with this provision that minority can keep you in a stir and have an election every other week. If there were some provision for long tenure or for life then there might be some reason for having the recall, but with (he short term if the people make a mistake let them endure it for the term, unless there Ffould be malfeasance or something criminal. And then there is already a remedy at law. But this thing of a small minority having the right by petition to order an election every time thinsrs didn't so to suit them, it's aw c- _ I ful, and then you can get any one al| most to sign any sort of petition. "We j need to dress up our voters when they | so to the polls that they may go no: as hide-bound partisans, but as patriotic citizens." That's it Now as for the towns I ha>ve named, f don't know j anything about them. Their mayors j may need the exercise of the recall, i but I doubt it. One or two dissatisfied i agitators can stir up a powerful row. And get petitions signed galore. Xo j man can please every one. You re I member that they did '.rucify the Per-1 feet Man. To change thp subject, I read in the J paper the other day where a man drove | to the State fair in his automobile an/i 1 when he got to Columbia driving along one of those beautiful wide streets that was not crowded he ran right into a telephone post and snapped it off and J smashed up his fine machine, but only'. ' slightly injured the occupants of the sr. It is stated that he was lookingha^k talking to one of the beautiful and ! fair occupants on the rear seat. He must have been moving some to snap off a big telephone post, but I mention this simply to call attention to other drivers who are in the habit of looking around and back while they are driving a car. I have seen it right here in Xewberry and I imagine that the fellow who drives even a Ford) has not much business looking at anything excent the road. I imagine also that the fomntdtirtn tn innk hack when there are some pretty girls* on the rear seat is very great, but better resist or take the fair one on the front seat with you. THE IDLER. P. S.?I have just read the following lictle tragedies in the survey column of the State, and they are so good I just can't wait until I can write again to pass them along, and then they are just a little germane to some 0/ the scattering in the above. That fellow that writes these paragraphs gets off some pretty good stuff?I hope he will pardon me ior sucn a aesigna-1 tion, but no harm is meant, it is just a way I ha-v-e of complimenting: Little Trhgedie*.
