NEWS FROM ST. PHILLIPS.
We are proud that the good old
summer time weather has arrived at
last. The farmers in this section have
a very good stand of cotton and therefore
are very busy. We would be
glad to get a nice shower, so we would
soon have plenty to eat in the gardens.
We are glad to see that one
of our neighbors, Mr. John Taylor is
preparing to build him a new residence.
The candidates seem very slow
about coming out. Cotne on, boys,
throw your hat in the ring and get
in the boat and take a nice ride.
St.- Phillips school closed Friday,
May the twenty-first. They had intended
to have a joint picnic with Mt.
Bethel-Garmany, but according to- tbe
busy time the St. Phillip people
didn't get to go. Much to their regret.
All of the pupils made their
grades with the exception of a few.
All four of the teachers were elected
for another term, although Miss Ola
Brown and Miss Frances Caldwell
didnt accept. We regret this very
much as we hoped that they would be
with us for another year. We haven't
heard from Miss Lottye Lee Halfacre
and Miss Crumpton yet, but we
are in good hopes that they will return.
We do pot want to lose all of
our fine teachers, while we know
that there are others just as good,
but we don't know if we could ge*:
them or not. The entertainment be-fnrp
thp close of school was just
simply grand.
'ine cnilaren recited their pieces
remarkably well and the singing was
| fine.- We thank Mrs. Armstrong for
the interest she takes in the school
1 helping train the children. We have
an up-to-date school and if we can
. keep the two last teachers spoken of
' and get two more I think it will roll
on smoothly again. Sorry teachers
will ruin your school where it will
j take a good one, two or three years
; to get it in rotation order again,
j Mr. P. F. Halfacre and Mr. L. W.
i Wicker have their houses beautifully
I lit up with gas lights.
; Miss Sara Hentz and Myrtle Lomi|
nick will leave next Thursday for
| Winthrop college where they will at'
tend the short course. Miss Hentz
: having won the scholarship in the
j Tomato Club from St. Phillips,
j Mr. and Mrs. Jake Sease and baby
spent Sunday with hs brother, Mr. L.
H. Sease.
J I will close for this time with best
j wishes to The Herald and News.

GOVERNOR TALKS !
OF FOOD SHORTAGE;
Calls on Farmers to Plant More Corn '
; and Avert Disastrous Prices Inci- j
dent to Low Stock of Wheat.
The State.
! In commencing upon the predicted!
i food shortage next fall Governor!
| Cooper yesterday urged that farmers j
i give careful thought to the existing i
and forecast conditions, and take j
cvci^ yucoiuic tu avuiu a xuuu i
shortage. "With the wheat crop only j
about two-thirds of normal, there is j
, danger that flour will b^ almost pro:
hibitively high, if, indeed, it can be:
obtained in the quantities desired,"!
said the governor. j
i "Our answer to this situation j
should be the planting of more corn, j
i I know the temptation to give all pos- i
; sible attention to cotton is very great i
because of the price cotton is bring- j
j ing. But we must remember that the j
| food supply is of first importance,
j and that general distress will prevail j
? in case flour and meal are produced j
j in quantities insufficient to meet de-;
i j T? ?.A; j? Li. _ 1:111. .--A 1
i mana. dy putting iortn <t muie exuxa :
J effort, practically every farmer in j
this state can plant an additional field j
in corn. The best informed agencies
and men of the country assure us
that this should: be done. That extra
i corn acreage offers the only solution
now seen for the threatened bread!
shortage, and that unless some such j
steps are taken, we shall within a few j
months find ourselves struggling with j
an economic condition arising from a j
food supply considerably under the!
food demand. Food prices are nowj
very high. What will they be if the
threatened condition materializes? j
! "Mv rmrrmsp in malcinc this Rtatp.- I
ment is to urge that farmers give
some thought to this matter, and that
wherever possible food crops .be increased."
THE GALLI-CURCI TOUR
IN HANDS OF ATLANTANS
The "Jack Salter" mentioned in

Constitution is DeWitt Salter, former-1

"Amelita Galli-Curci, Tenowned t
soprano, has placed the exclusive]
j management of her concert touring I
j in the hands of the Atlanta firm of i
I Evans & Salter, according to an

j Galli-Curci is reputed to be the highj
est-paid soprano since the days of
j Adelina Patti, and her engagements
J will be handled entirely by Lawrence
i Evans an^ Jack Salter, one of whom
will travel with the famous opera
singer oh her tours.
"The announcement that Mae.'
Galli-Curci had asked the Atlanta
firm to take charge of her affairs followed
the announcement that she had
entered suit against her former con!
cert manager, Charles L. Wagner, for
i $125,000, which she alleged was due

in thfr- country. The transaction came j
wholly voluntarily from Mme. Galli-4;
Curci, who had met the members of
the firm on a trip to Atlanta to par-!
ticipate in the all-star series. !
; "The concert series formerly han-'

RURAL SCHOOL DISTRICTS
VOTING EXTRA TAXES
The four special elections which
were held last Saturday carried. St.
Lukes voted 4 mills in order to* have
4 teachers and will be entitled to
about $1,400.00 State aid as a result
of the election, the tax will cost a little
more than $300.00. Thus the
voters saw that it was a good business
proposition for St. Lukes .
Big Creek, the adjoining district to
St. Lukes voted 4 additional in order
to qualify for more State aid. The
vote in Big Creek stood 17
for and 4 against. These two
schools Big Creek and St. Lukes have
about 150 pupils and it would 1t>e
easy to get up a centralized high
school in that section.
Trinity district voted 12 to one in
favor of having 4 more mills in order
to have the necessary 8 to qualify for
State guarantee.
Whitmire district voted 5 mills
additional and the vote was unanimous
for the tax. This will put
Whitmire, Prosperity and LttleMounain
schools under the State guarantee
for salaries. Newberry district intends
to come in .soon also. Whitmire
and Prosperity have voted some
t#x in excess of the 10 mills required
as a minimum in order to have sufficient
funds for all incidentals.

ISAAC WALTONS ENJOY A
TRIP TO FLORIDA KEYS
Miami Florida Herald.
Two large tarpon, one of which
weighed 150 pounds, any number of
sailfish, barracuda, dolphin, grouper,
amberjack and many other smaller
fish, were landed by Mr. and Mrs. F.
W. Webster and L. L. Sertel, of this
city during a six-day cruise among
the Florida keys which came to a happy
and successful ending yesterday
afternoon when the good ship Gipsy
Queen, Captain William Hatch ir

sunshine, but hale and hearty all
members of the party stepped off the
boat feeling younger for their exciting
trip.
Mr. Webster, who is general manager
of the South Atlantic Telephone
and Telegraph company, is a wellknown
member of the Miami Anglers'
club and an ardent fisherman and
sportsman. He landed/many sailfish,
putting all of them back except two,
in accordance with the true sportsmanship
tactics employed by all members
of the club. Any amount of
large grouper and amberjack was
caught, and preserved on ice, being
salable on the local market.
Mr. Sertel, also connected with the
South Atlantic Telephone and Telegraph
company, landed both the tarpon,
but could save neither, as it was
on the first day out that these were
caught. He only had two strikes, and
landed both fish on rod and reel.
Mrs. Webster, who is an ardent angler,
landed two large sailfisli yesterday,
one of which weighed 67 pounds.
The party cruised down the coast
as far as Knight's Key, or about 100
miles to the south. Thirty-five fish,
_ t- i i A'CB J.
oi twelve ainerem. vaneues wctc
landed yesterday. It was six days of
perfect pleasure, stone crabs, crawfish
and all the delicacies of the ocean
being brought to the boat by the
anglers every night to be prepared
for the evening's feast.
The local interest attached to this
Story is the fact that both Mr. and
Mrs. Webster are South Carolinians,
and Mrs. Webster a Newberrian, a
daughter of Mr. and Mrs. J. Fred
Schumpert. N

Tom Moore?Detective.
Many young men came back from
"over there" with no other prospects
but the tiresome routine of office
work. After their army experience
nearly all regret returning to a voca
won so inactive pnysicauy. lorn
Moore, in Goldwyn's latest picture,
"Duds," proves more fortunate.
Through a little adventure he wins
the confidence of ^ome noted jewelers
who are endeavoring to stop the
smuggling of gems from Europe.
They engage Captain Pheobe Plunkett
(Tom Moore) to trace the smugglers
and secure the Sultana diamond for
them. The Captain falls in love
with one of his employer's daughters,
ana alter a number of perilous adventures,
is still alive to live happily
ever after. See it Monday.

Of the home on the rough coast

And tears fill my eyes, for I know

That loved spot, 'I shall ne'er see

The old house on the hill, and the
murmuring jill,
That flows o nits way to the bay,

And the same that awoke~~me at
