It , is the st$te law, and besides it helps | the* pedestrian as well as the driver: of other cars. When one. goes to ! cross anv of the streets of the ritv i he most look in all directions, and if! - the crossing is at an intersection of! streets he hns to look more ways or ; directions than he has eyes, and then, he is in danger of being run over. Because even when the stop sign gjfc swings and waves theNcar generally; fi- -' crosses the street before it stops, and then you are already run over.

I The citizens of Anderson have held a meeting and h^ve petitioned the legislature to keep down the tax P uurocn wic coming sesiHVii, etuu -pivtested 'against tiie approximation of the appropriation, as submitted by the budget-committee of ten million dollars*/ For the appropriation bill to leap at the, rate of three million and more the year is making pretty good jumps, and in these times of stress 7 - and financial stringency it is best to r" go slow and not make any but the real necessary appropriations. Cut out the proposed extensions and in- j creases for many of the state institu- j i tio&s, and let them wait until after] this readjustment period, 'take off { some of the state boards and commit-j ?Jh tees and supervisors of various departments, and many things which seVm small in themselves but in the: aggregate amount to a pretty biff! sum might be taken off during this' . time of getting settled down to normalcy. ' When it comes to the common, schools the people themselves have1 endorsed the action of the legislature ; in making provision for state "aid, by\ voting the taxes to meet the condi-! tions laid down in the statute, and it would be against th& wish of the peo-; pie to fail to make pfcpvision for the ; v- support of the common schools, ar-.l p-1; besides it would completely demorn!- ; i - ize the school system because the ; schools have been opened and are op-; crating under the impression that the, legislature will keep faith with them' by leaking the appropriation after: the people have met the conditions; by voting the special tax. ]>ut belter' ga slow in making new things f;?r "which to spend money.

In the meantime t!:r oUier b?; of the city and the city itself offeree to make deposit? and wanted, the o< ficers to po on, but they decided thsafe plan f.as to have the bank ex aminer come. After his report th: bank immediately opened its door and proceeded to do business. The Abbeville Press and Banner in commenting on the affair says that it feels like taking: off its hat U the people of Abbeville. The city o Abbeville immediately made a dc posit of $11,000 and each pf the cth er banks a deposit of $2,500 and no one of the regular customers wun drew his money. The Press and Ban ner says that all this sounds fine "but it is a finer thing to be able t< state that not a single depositor o. the bank withdrew his account during the day. It was as quiet about tin County Savings bank building as i was on law range yesterday, v am that is saying a good deal." And further the Press and Bannei says the people of "the community have shown that they have the com munity spirit. A little money nov counts for a good deal and with thi josses which most people are sustain ing, in one Business and anoi/y;' people are afraid to lose.
