"DO IT FOR SOUTH CAROLINA." j
Mr. A. B. Jordan of Dillon, Presi-I
dent of South Carolina Press association,
united with Governor Robert A.!
Cooper in inviting a representative'
of each of the newspapers of South j
Carolina to attend a luncheon in |
Columbia on Tuesday, May 11. Mr. j
Jordan is a member of the State.
Executive committee which has active j
management of the expansion cam-'
paign which has been announced by j
~ i ? J
tne soutn Carolina ucvciupmcui.
board. Below is a portion of Mr.
Jordan's remarks at the luncheon:
Gentlemen, I have listened with a
great deal of interest to what has
been said here today. The impression
that has been made upon me is
that this is a great work which has
been undertaken by a few patriotic
men in South Carolina.
I have been reading the literature [
which has been sent me from day to
day, and, if the South Carolina Development.
board can accomplish half
as much as they have undertaken to
a^nmnlish. the ueoDle. not only the!
farmers, but the business men of all!
| professions and industries, will have
J been greatly benefited. |
I am not sufficiently familiar withj
, the subject to make any extended re-)
? marks, but, in glancing over the program
that the development board has
mapped out, next to the matter of
j education, the subject which appeals
t to me most is drainage and dra'nage
projects. This is due probably to the i
fact that I live in a section that is
badly in need of drainage and I was
raised in the lower part of this State.
I realized years ago that the only
way that section could be successfully
developed was through drainage.
My mind goes back to my boyhood:
days. Twenty-five or thirty years)
ago, I used to find in the negro cabins]
two or three frogs tied to a bed post, j
T ' ~ *"*4-Vsa -PvAOr I
It W3S a supersuuuu lativ tuc xiv/ft j
kept off malaria and all manner of;
diseases.
Science came along and told us
that the mosquito transmitted mala-1
ria. As boys you and I sat on the,
bank of a pool and watched the frogs
devouring mosquitoes. We know
now'that the ignorant negro was
struggling upward to make living conditions
better.
Now there is no way of estimating
what it has cost South Carolina to
permit stagnant creeks and swamps
to exist. If through the work of this
board those swamps can be drained,
if the low lands can be made more
productive, that work alone will have
accomplished something that will increase
efficiency 100 per cent, and
will add millions to the wealth of
South Carolina.
It is going to require a big effort
to put things through, and I don't say
that success is impossible without
tii? assistance of the press, but the
v/t?rk that these gentlemen have undertaken
can be made a great deal
easier if they can get the cooperation
of ev?ry newspaper man in South
Carolina.
My friends, with the assistance of
the Press, this work which has been
imriaftalroTi hv rt few natriotic citi
zens will be made easier of accomplishment,
and 1 feel sure we will all
giadly lend our assistance.

Z. F. WRIGHT TAKES
STRONG MESSAGE
The State, 27tn.
The Newberry College club of
Columbia held its regular meeting in
Friendship hall Tuesday night, and a
goodly number of the members were
V t.< -U7\,;?U+ MaurKovvv
' jJZ'Cddli,. tj. J.-. V? ilgILt VA il w ll uvi i j
; brought greetings from the club at
Newberry and extended on invitation
to each and every member of the
; Columbia club to be present at com;
mencement, and especially to attend
the banquet to be given on Tuesday
of commencement week. Mr. Wright
spoke of the great good Newberry col|
lege had done and the importance of
giving young people an opportunity to
get^a Christian education.
i The club is doing something tangible
now in the way of assisting Newberry
and the young women and men
who have an ambition and determination
to get an education. A finance
committee was appointed and plans
will be worked out for carrying forward
some beneficial work. The
club contributed $200 to the support;
of the college athletic team. It is j
hoped that the plans now on foot will
be heartily indorsed by the entire]
membership. ,A good, enjoyable!
meeting was held this time and those
in the future are to be made? more
so.
Clemenceau Coming a* Screen Author
Georges Clemenceau, "The Tiger
of France," the strongest man of the
world conflict who, although he has
passed the allotted threescore 6nd
ten years, still retains all the vigor
of a roan in his prime, has put into his
story, "The Strongest," which William
Fox will present in its film
form at the opera house on Tuesday,
all the force, all the strength, all the j
personality that made him dictator of j
formo wlnVli thp Allies im-!
LUC WVA AAAfcJ ??
posed on the Germans. Georges!
Clemenceau knows the world, he.
knows life. His own life has been a!
struggle, continuous and successful,!
against opponents of unusual skill and j
resourcefulness.
He has put into his one and onlyj
novel, "The Strongest," which is a
powerful story with a thrilling theme
?a story of France today?characters
which he knows thoroughly,
with which he has come dn contact, j
They live, breathe, and have human j
faults. Clemenceau does not make
his hero a demigod who can do noj
wrong, nor does he make his villain a'
blackguard who can do no right.!
There is good in the bad of the world, j
and in making his only photoplay,'
from his only novel, Georges Clemen- j
ceau has kept this ever before him.

THE MEANING OF THE
FOOD SHORTAGEj
We shall need now to conserve food
and to preach increased food produc-|
tion to a much greater extent than;
during the war. Patriotism stirred
the farmefrs then to do their utmost
^ nA nnnnt nnt fhp r?nst_ and patriotism!
OI1U W Uii V 1AVV WUV x t
brought about food conservation in;
nearly every-home. But now the call'
of patriotism is not so appealing, |
though it is just as much needed. If j
American people can not get food, or
if they have to pay an ever-advancing
price for it, there will be turmoil,
food riots and anarchy to threaten:
our government. The need of more)
food production is clearly stated by j
the Columbus (Ga.) Enquirer-Sun,!
which clearly senses the whole situa-j
tion. In discussing this question the
Enquirer-Sun says:
"And yet the situation that con-;
fronts the people, not only of the i
O knf n-f ftio ontirp TlAtiorj. is1
OUUL11, LSl&U V/JL bav - , ? ,
serious. It would be useless to undertake
to disguise the fact. No one
can afford to close his eyes and refuse
to see that the situation is serious.
"Yes, we are aware of the fact,
that there is much money in the j
country. We know that the per;
capita circulation is greater, perhaps, j
than it has ever been in the hstory!
of the nation, but that fact does not
get us anywhere when we are con- ;
fronted by under-production. The
demand for the necessities of life is
greater than the supply. Too many,
people are undertaking to reap where
they do not sow. There are too many
consumers and too few producers, j
"It doesn't matter how much
money a ma^i may have with which!
to pay for something if that some-j
thing is not to be had. We have seen j
this fact demonstrated during the
past two or three years.
"At one time wheat flour was so
scarce purchasers were limited to so
much, and it was the same way with
sugar. At one time, for instance, it
didn't matter if a man had a barrel
j of money he could buy only three
! podnds of sugar. So it is not always
j the case that the man with the money
I can do all that he wants to do.
I "It is a great problem that is confronting
the country. It is the problem
of production.
"Unless there shall be greater production
this year than indications
now point that there will be, the people
of the entire country are going
to experience real hard times before
another crop can be grown after the
crop of this year has been harvested.
By hard times, we do not mean a
scarcity of money. It isn't going to
make so much difference about the
money part of the proposition if
there is not sufficient supply of things
jthat are needed.
One Can't Buy Bread if There Be No
Bread for Sale.
"It is true that the man with
plenty of money will he able to pay
. the higher price that will be asked
' for these things as long as they last,
j while the little fellow with only a
==f=
J small amount will begin to suffer nrs1
"But unless there is a revolutio
! in the manner of doing things in thi
; country, it isn't going to be so grea
! a while before everybody?the ric
as well as the poor?will begin to fet
j the pinch that is certain to come.

"IS YOUR GIRL SAFE?"
Dr. John A. Rice, pastor of Trinitj
Methodist church, Sumter, preachec
a sermon recently that is attracting
attention. We have picked out a fev
paragraphs from the published ser
mon:
"If the community encourages
combing the hair in a certain way
your girl will comb hers that way. h
the community makes dresses in i
certain way, your girl will make hei
dress that way or there will b<
trouble. No matter what it cost
your girl must do as others^ do anc
you must pay the bills. That gir
must have things considered right b]
those she goes with, which being in
terpreted means by the community ai
a whole.
"You are aware of the rumor:
current on our streets the last fev
weeks. They disclose certain alarm
ing symptoms of putrid social condi
tions that demand instant and heroic
treatment. ?
"One of our perils is the automo
bile. It is alarming to see a group o:
a half dozen girls and boys staving
through the streets at breaknecli

"I could speak of dress as anothei
indecency. It looks as if women o:
