matters educational.
We publish in another column a
very sane and sensible article from
the Anderson Daily Mail on the state
colleges and the common schools by
"A Friend of Both/"'
We are printing this because it
gives the figures and because this
subiect is receiving attention in the
speeches of the candidates in the
chanty campaign, but mainly because
it gives the figures of cost so far as
the state legislature is concerned.
We have not had opportunity to
verify the figures which, this writer
gives, but' we are inclined to think
that in one or two particulars, while
the figures are correct so far as they
go, they'are just a little misleading.
We are inclined to the opinion that
x o' C1 K AO "SO 50 A nr*t"
Lilt? LUL&l U1 ^pijVZVjWvtvv v?vvw itvv
1 include 'the correct amount given to
the state institutions of higher learning.
It may include the total of direct
approporiation, but does it include
the indirect income which
Clemson college receives from the
fertilizer tax, which is just as-much
part of t^he income or more than any
other? We are inclined to the opin
. i _ __ x
ion tftat it does noi.
And then the other figures as to
the amount which the common
- schools receive from the tax levied
by the districts themselves should nov
be used in the comparison made a:
to the appropriations by the legisla
ture for the common schools, be
cause that is paid direct by the people
of the several districts themselves
and should not be used in comparing
the appropriations by the legis+
V
Upon the whole, however, the article
is a very clear and unbiased
statement of the facts. It is necessary
in order to a successful system
of common schools that the st^ite
shouid maintain a system of institutions
of higher learning.
We want the readers of The Herald
and News to note especially the
figures as to the pay we are giving
our very faithful teachers, and ther.
they will readily agree that it -is ar
outrage that they are not paid more
money, because they have to do with
. thp hnilnino- of the future citizen:
of the state. They are the most important
factors in the development
of the commonwealth, and yet are
thevpoorest paid of any of the workers
in the state. And we will have tc
pay them better df we expect to re
tain those who are worthy to be
trusted with the important work of
training the citizens i.nd the home
makers of the future.
"Every true and intelligent Ameri
can believes in education, but edu
cation is no substitute for work
The two are complementary. Ruskii
daclered: 'It is only by labor th?
thought can be made healthy, am
.only by thought that labor can bt
made happy; the two can not be sep
arated with impunity.' "
The city of Charleslon is given a
population by the recent census of
67,957, a gain of 9,124 during the
last decade or 15.5 per cent. Of
course Charleston is not satisfied
with the count and is demanding a
.
recount. The city is claiming at
least 90,000 people and thinks there
are 100,000. That is natural. It is
the case with all cities, but we hav^
little doubt wnen the recount is made,
if one is ordered, that it will be found
that the figures by the enumerators
are practically correct.
Th* Carolinian of Calhoun county,
the new paper recently organized
there under the management of Cliff
Langford as editor, has recently installed
a complete new printing outfit,
but like The Herald and News has
fyeen having trouble in getting the
plant installed. All of us have cur
troubles and somehow it is always
some consolation to know that you
are not alone, and while we regret to
learn that any one should have trouble
one will feel like maybe he is not
nltncrpflipr tn hlamp wnnn nnr
the only one to have similar trouble.
It has been some job to get our press
to work, but we are coming and the
last paper was sent out on time and
the print was much bettor 'ami we
hope to keep improving. C'liif-Langford
will give the St. Matthews people
and the people of Calhoun a good
newspaper because he knows how
and has the energy to do i:.
There was not a single person at
the campaign meeting at Chappells to
hear the candidates speak; and tii^y
didn't speak.?Newberry Observer.

\LL DEMOCRATS ARE CALLED^
UPON TO CONTRIBUTE TO NATIONAL
CAMPAIGN FUND.
I have been selected* by Mr. Jco
j >parks, financial director ' of vhh
tate, as county chairmar of DoI?
ar Democracy campaign. I have aieady
appointed the executive committeemen
from each club to solicit
'unds from the members of his club,
fl have suggested that they can either i
see each member of the club r.ersonally
before the primary elect'or.
or if it is more convenient, to be f t
I the polling precinct that day, or have j
j someone else there, to see each Dem'
ocratic voter as he comes to vote. I j
hope if the executive committeeman j
of any club can not be present he will
arrange some way to give each Democrat
the privilege of contributing to
this fund. In some counties they arc
arranging to place a box at each
polling: precinct in which each per!
son can place his contribution and
{write his name and the amount on a
j list placed with said box. If any of
j the executive committeemen think j
I this plan better and desire to adopt
j it they are at liberty to do so. We
) are very anxious, however, to keep a
| list of all contributions and we hope
i this will be done, it makes no difference
how the contribution is obi
tained.
I hope that all voters in Xewberry I
county will contribute at least one ;
dollar. Larger amounts are desired
i where one feels inclined to five
I # *
j same. Two parties in the county
! have already voluntarily handed me
fnnj-vihntion?one of $10 and the [
! other of $25. We would be glad to j
| have some more contributions like
! this, as well as some of $5. In any
! event, we want at least 5?1 from every
voter in the countv. In mv ooinion. |
j
i this is one of the most important
i campaigns the Democratic party has
: ever had on its hands. There is more
j.at staKP man mere iu;.> <.wi
j since the days of radicalism. Xune
of lis want to see another world conflict,
and the Democratic party is the
: one thai is trying to avoid such a

upon what we do at tliis time, in

of measures that, have been pa?sed
by the Democrats that >re of great

TRINITY LUTHERAN CHURCH
SALUDA COUNTY GROWING
Col. E. H. Aull, Newberry, S. C.
My Dear Sir:
I read your interesting, piece in
The Herald and News about your
trip to Trinity church last Sunday.
I was sorry to learn mat each time
you come that you have some car
trouble. Eut.your conclusion is commendable
in that you will net be discouraged
for another trial next year.
I hope that you will be more fortunate
next time.
It is so nice 01 you to vememiiu:
the old folk in that way. Only mart
people in this busy age would be
more thoughtful of the old people,
for they do not have many more
years in which to attend Trinity before
they come to remain there forever.
I am quite sure that there were no
two persons there on Sunday that
enjoyed it more than your mother
and Aunt Mat Carson. It is a source
cf great pleasure to see those two
old people together. They can kiss
and hug to vie with, if not excel, any
young people. And when you think
of it their affection is more genuine
than that of the average person of
ITm. 1-V1017 nr? nnHpr
uvuaj1. a Vi HIV J V .f w%*. vw. ?
more substantial friendship, and a
less fickled age than the present. And
friendships and . relationchips were
more permanent then. So if you
never come without an accident you
are amply repaid to make those old
people happy. It is a time when they
can recall so many old faces and
events that are so dear to them. It
doeo my heart good to see them together.
And Aunt Mat certainly
loves Aunt Julia. She is always
talking about her.
Mrs. 0. Loves Trinity church, it is
her very eyeball, and now since three
of her son Tom's children have
joined, and his wife, she is reaping
the fruition cf her prayers and solicitude
that she has exercised for all
these years. One% son and the wife of
Mr. Carson joined during these services.
Trinity seems to be getting on a
firm foundation, bne iosi so mucn,
for not having a pastor nearer
through so many years, when it was
served from the pastor of Corinth
and St. Marks, who was 20 miles
away. He could not get there but
once a month, and was not there to
marry ncr bury the folk. So, when
they had to get a minister of other
;ir wii<? n r.emntation
V. 11 uvyiiii.iii k:v.'Mc ?
to finally unite with their churches.
She lost a great deal of good mater:a!
in this way. And for some
four years before 1 came they had
a seminary student to serve them,
and was not much better than the
other arrangement. So the church
went backward if anything.
But now things are looking up.
The attendance is growing, and new
material is coming in. We had the
best service this year that we have
ever had. The church was filled on
the week days. We took in 1(> members.

Is it any wonder that these people !
who have "Stood by the Stuff" all
these years are proud of this growth.
There were times when they must
have been discouraged. It takes a
loyal member to remain faithful
through such up hill struggle.
I am very fond of my Trinity peoj
pie. and they are very kind to us.

had not already heard them. Come 1

are glad to see you.

Took Wife and Then Took Vacation.
Health Officer S. T. Matthews told
the reporter on Saturday that he
would leave on Monday for a week's
vacation. He never said a word
about getting married and taking his
bride with him. At ?he eleventh
hour on this press day we were informed
that our health officer got a
move on by a quick trip to the marriage
license bureau, thence immediately
to the residence of the First
Baptist church minister, where the
Rev. E. V. Babb married him and hir
bride, Miss Lizzie Moore, the coupk

Mr. S. W. Hodge, to Prosperity, anc I

We hope they will both en- ^
joy it and that the health officer wil*
return all the better prepared ' tc
