If Mr. Lever withdraws from the
senatorial race, or does not enter, and i
Mr. Tillman can not make the can-1
vas and Mr. Blease will not attend
the meetings there is not much use
of the campaign as scheduled. Call
it off.
Then these are times when we
should not do anything that will be
caluculated to take the minds of our
people from the one great purpose
that should control them at this time,
the winning of the war. This is no
time for political agitation and the
stirring up of the people. "We want
every citizen to work in harmony with
every other citizen for the welfare
of the State, and political debates
and harrangues by candidates for office
will not contribute to that end.
And "besides that the people are well
enough acquainted with the men who
aspire to the various offices to make
a selection without this canvas of
the State at this time. We would be
glad to see the meetings so slimly
attended that the candidates themselves
would see the necessity of
quitting the campaign and going
home and announcing through the
press of the State the offices they
seek and telling the people who they
are and their fitness for the job ant!
then let the people go quietly to the
- oils and cast their ballots and let
us all resolve to stand by the majority
without murmur or complaint.
That's the way we see it and w?

took that position as to the county
campaign but the chairman ruled
that the rules of the party required
the appointment of the meetings. We
hold the same 4iew as to the State
campaigns. The people are in
) frame of mind at this time to be listening
to political harrangues.
We want to see the offices filled
fby men who are competent and of
good character and loyal to the gov
ernment, but we ibelieve that the people
can make the selection just as
well by doing- away with the State
canvas.
We do not see the Charleston Post
but we understand that it carried a
news item on Tuesday in which it
was stated that President Wilson had
asked Mr. Lever to withdraw from
the senatorial race and retain his
position as chairman of the committee
on agriculture in the house. That
is the advice we gave Mr. Lever before
he entered the race for the sen -;
ate and if he had listened to his real;
friends he would not have been |
nlaced in this awkward situation. ,
Now in order to retain that position
in. the house the president will have
to get these other gentlemen out of
the race in Mr. Lever's district, or
help Mr. Lever to win the fight over
some five or six opponents which he

true, but we heard it on pretty good
authority on Wednesday. Gov. Manning
seems to have made a mess of
the whole business in his efforts at
senator making.

iptain all of our subscribers but it
is not our purpose to undertake to j
force the paper on any one who does
not want it and as we say if it has
been continued to any one whose
time is out and he does not want to

We are going to correct it after

We somehow have not "been able

jhave "been unable to adjust ourselves

WH1TMIRE IIIK1I SCHOOL
UAS EXCELLENT CLOSING
1 had the pleasure of attending the
closing exercises of the Whitmire
high school on Monday evening. I
have had the same pleasure every year
since the high school was established
| at this place. In fact, I had a little
part in the establishment of the high
school and changing the school from
; an ordinary common school with
j three teachers to a high school with
i
j at the present time nine teachers,
. and it has only been a very few
j years since the change was made.
! And it has been a great and a real
I
pleasure to me to watch this school
i grow and prosper. And to see what
! a good influence it has had on the
, community.
i
i ?a~
j Prof. C. IB. Hanna has been the beloved
superintendent for the past
several years, loved by the pupils and
patrons as well. Some three months
or more ago he felt the call of his
country and offered for work with
the Y. M. C. A. and was accepted,
i and is now stationed at Camp Jackson.
He was present at the closing
, on Monday and presented the diplo
mas to the young people who had
finished the tenth grade, eight in all.
! ?o?
!
i When Mr. Hanna decided to go to
I
the army work the trustees secured
the services of Miss Irene Dillard
who had been teaching music in the
school, to take up the work of the
superintendent and finish out the
i year. She is highly educated, has experieence
as a teacher, is tactful and
diplomatic and knows how to do
things. The pity is that the trustees
can not retain her services. But sne
is going to take a 'postgraduate
course in a university in New York
and had just ibeen resting at her
home in Clinton when she was induced
about the first of the year to
! go ever to Whitmire and take up the
music work for the school and later
the superintendency. To be perfectly
frank I do not know that I ever met
any one who in so short a time impressed
me so favorably with her
ability to handle the school in an ef
ficient and capable manner as did
Miss Dillard, if she will pardon me
for saying it. And she had good and
competent assistants. I understand
that Mr. Wright is to succeed in the
work at Whitmire.
There were eight- youn^ people to
'finish the work at Whitmire this year.
Seven girls and one 1)oy. All of them
rook pare in the public exercises.
The young man, Thomas Herbert
Watson, Jr., was president of the
crass and salutatorian and second
honor and introduced the others. He
is the same who came to 'Newberry
with the boy scouts and was introduced
as the cantain of the scouts
who ha ? the honor to receive a fla?
from Pre dent Wilson for having
sold more of the second Liberty loan
bonds than any company in the State.
Prof. Hanna w^; the captain but at
that time (Mr. Hanna had left for the
service He is a manly fellow, had
to be to go^througn school with such
a bevy of pretty and bright girls and
thf> nnlv how and a son of Mr. and
Mrs. Thomas H. Watson.
The first honor went to Miss Flos- i
sie Spray who delivered the valedictory.
j
The others who read papers and j
their subjects were:
Miss Grace 'Holt?Class Poet.
Miss Lois Tidmarsh?Class Histor- j
ian.
Miss Annie Lou Payne?Lawyer, ;
Who Wrote the Class Will.
Miss Bessie Garvin?Class Proph- >
ecy.
Miss Dorothy Watson?Class Punster.
Miss Vara Brown?Class Statistician.
A number of buttons were given to '
pupils for perfect attendance.
The only medal was the Auil Essay
medal given by E. H. Aull to tnat j
member of the class that would write '
the best composition on a subject as- j
signed. The writing of the essay to

be a part of the work required to re- j
ceive the diploma.
The subject assigned this year was, I
"Why T Should Purchase a War Sav- j
ings Stamp." Miss Dillard kindly in-!
vited me to deliver the medal to the !
successful contestant which I did.

of the class were well written j
and bore evidence of originality. ;

It was a most pleasant evening and , .
bil
(leliglifnl trip and made more so Inhaving
the pleasure of the company
of my friend B. 13. Leitzsey to go ?
with me. 1 went in Mr. Sam John
son's transfer and he gave me Mr.
David Hayes as driver a'r.d he drove
, carefully and we had no trouble aty
nM. Ther* had been rain the afternoon
a* Whitmire and for several
i miles on this side and right here in
j Xewberrv tvt the roads were not bad
i ar?d the rain made the evening that
i much more pleasant for such n trip.
| On the return we stopped at Mr
I Leitzsev's to get some water and
found that that good wife of his had
left the table set and on it was pome
of that good country ham, and so
i we had a good meal, and I am sine
I enjoyed it. 'but I believe that David
Hayes reallv enjoyed that meal more
j than any of us. and T am sure he
, would like for Mrs. Leitzsev to know
just how onuch he appreciated it,
! and so T am going to tell her. I enj
joyed it because after riding thirty
miles and trying to make a little
speech as I did I felt like eating and
that ham was good. E. H. A

Prof. Voigt volunteered when he resigned
his professorship in Newberry
college. We had henrd that he would
remain here and had (just written
thrt "the p?ople of Xewberrv and
friends everywhere will be delighted
to know that Prof. Gilbert P. Voigt
has reconsidered the matter and win
remain with Newberry college." Now
to onr regret we have to recall thax.
sentence. Prof. Voigt left Saturday
for Columbia to spend a couple of
weeks vwth home folks (before proceeding
to iBlue Ridge. A great big
portion of the large community heart
sioes with him.
