_ __ A fee JeralD unD IJeios. ! Catered at the Postoffice at New- | I Wrrjr, S. C.. as 2nd class matter. ~ ] o u ivrv v rniTAD St* a. bvi i vn. Friday, April 8', 1921 The highway commission has done a fine piece of work on the road by I Helena to Tranwood by removing two : very dangerous railroad crossings and! making a better road by so doin<r. j This should have been done long a.r^; The farmers are going to try out! the sweet potato crop to a good test j this year if all indications do not fail, i While we are growing the potato we S should send missionaries among the j people to whom we expect to sell to} teach them how to prepare the pota- j to for the table. Justice Thos. P. Cothran has re-j signed as state chairman and Gen. I Wylie Jones has been elected tempor arily to take his place. Better makei Gen. Jones permanent chairman. He' will be so elected when the committee meets and no better man for the place could be chosen. He has ren- j dered long and valuable service to the democratic party in this state. It is due to our readers that we should state that we did not publish the program of meetings in our last issue for the reason that the copy was not furnished to us. The chamber of commerce, we understand, arranged this schedule and as they have been giving out all the publicity themselves and have been crowding the papers at times, we felt sure of course that this would be given to both pn - - - / i pers, and besides we had no way 01 getting it otherwise. We refer to the meetings that were advertised at the several school houses for this week. T. U. Vaughn is a pretty good actor. But. it seems that any one who} is sane enough to act crazy when th'^1 occasion demands it, and is smart; enough to escape so many times,) would have taken himself to another! ^ place than whe. - there are so many visitors and would have gone farj enough not to have been heard of v again. But they seem to have the! boy this time, and his next journey will likely be to an unexplored land. Sheriff Buford says it is a peculiarity of criminals who escape and take another name to adopt the name of some Drominent family of their home county. Street paving will begin in Newberry very soon. Every one knows just which streets should be paved first, but under the present plan ths streets to receive this improvement will depend upon the residents of the streets themselves. We shall be veryglad to see Boundary or west Boun dary street paved and will gladly pay the proportion for the length along our place. -But as a matter of fact Main street and College street on ou* to the cemetery should be the first t.A hp naved. and then Friend street at least from the postoffice out j to the railroad should be paved, butj we hope the money will hold out t">! do these and then some. With th? town paying only half and the abutting property paying the other half the money should go a good way. The highway commission is doinr? some good work on the roads in all sections of the county and with th ?| permanent roads we are having built I it will not be near so long as it has been before we will have a lot of good roads in Newberry county. Th2 roads to Whitmire and to Chappells; will be opened for travel during thi present year. And that sounds good especially to us. We have been writing and talking about these roads for many years and we are grateful to feel that we will have the opportuni- j ty of seeing the roads built. But the highway commission is not: only building these roads and the one from the Lexington line to the Laur- i ens line but the cross roads in the} county are receiving attention. Jfj the money would hold out to build the Pomaria road or make a top soil road out of it then we would have the county pretty well covered with top soil roads. * That is, we would have i a road in each direction and not so fur from any one's home. Good roads will help the rural /school conditions and make life in the j country more desirable and the prob-l lem before this generation is the J building of the rural communities. The Tribune of An 'jrson prints an \ article in which it is stated that the Anderson county farmers were not going to reduce the cotton acreage, and from what we have seen along the roadside it does not appear that the farmers anywhere around these parts < i &re going to reduce to any appreci-j able extent. Of course nothing is j planted yet, but the preparation of the land looks very much like it was being prepared for cotton. It is all right not to reduce the acreage if we first make an arrangement by which we are growing all we need to ieoct man and ^beast on the farm. When a farmer grows what he needs for his farm on the farm, his meat and his corn and his hay and his other feed stuffs, then about all he can do and what he should do, is to raise all the cotton he can. We can not compete with the grain growing sections in raising corn for market nor can we compete with the other sections where the soil and climate are adapted to particular crops, and we should not undertake to do so. This is a cotton growing section ar.d we should nroduce it. but we can ar.d we' should in this partciular section grow our own food. "This brought from Governor Harding the assertion that there was no actual overproduction but a decrease in the buying power of the European states into which American commodities formerly went. The job of the cotton exporter and his financial backer, Mr. Harding added, was to recreate the buying power by supplying some credit on some economic lines. The situation in Europe as viowpH kv t.h<> reserve board, he said, nedeed stabilizaton and he added that one way to aid in this stabilization was by assisting those countries in manufacturing." This quotation is from the report of the meeting of the bankers and others in Washington a day or two ago to discuss the cotton situation and mattors r?prtaininep to business. V liiu v wva w> ^ w . and is what Governor Harding of the reserve beard said in answer to remarks of bankers who were urgirg that there should be a reduction in the cotton acreage. We quot* it here because we believe tlia*. it is true, and besides it confirms what The Herald and News nai said all along, that it did not believe that * / - ? x. there was any over-proaucuon 01 cuiton or anything else, and could rot be so long as a large part of the world was suffering for clothes an.! starving for something to car, and that is the reason we thought that a revival of the war ooard would be a good thing, we might through it open up a system or a line of sane credit so that we might sell t.heso people what we had and give them an oppor^ * tur.ity to pay tor it. oo :ong as un..?ent conditions exist, part of the world hungry and naked and another part with more food and clothes th.i/i we know what to do with, or at least so much of it that we actually ta'k and Urge a reduction of production, ihere is no doubt in our mind t?:at there is something radically wrong with our eionomic system. The war strickan peoples of Europe should be given an opportunity to help themselves a::d we believe that if they were given the opportunity they would go to work and would be able to pay for what we have to sell them, and would pay a fair price for it. At least they could be kept from starving and freezing. A committee was appointed io look into the matter. We believe that some good is coming from this meeting of bankers and 11 ^ ? 1? r> oV? 1 Y\ cf_ farmers witn tne omciais in *f aoainr,ton and that trade relations with the European countries will tfe opened, and we will be able to let these people have what we have to sell, and that they will be given an opportunity to go to wo'rk and pay for it at a reasonable price. In the meantime the farmers of this section better not depend entirely on cotton, but grow what they need to cat on their own farms and then what cotton they may be able to grow. The boll weevil may come along and destroy the crop cf this section this year. The mild winter will be a great help to him. <i> <?> 3> <$ < # <? $> AMONG THE SCHOOLS <? ?S 0 Q ? ^ ^ *?* ^ ? ? ? ? & Teachers Meeting Bear in mind the meeting of the county teachers association on Saturday at 11 o'clock at the court house. These meetings are guaranteed not to last more than an hour except by unanimous consent. President Derrick will be present to explain to the teachers the summer school for teachers that is to be held at Newberry college the coming summer, and we may have some other speakers, but if not we will open the question box and discuss matters pertaining to our own work here in Newberry, and I am sure all the teachers will be benefited by these round table talks. We would be glad also to see some or all of the trustees present at these meetings. Hartford. On Tuesday I made a short visit to Hartford. This is a two teacher school taught by the Misses Trotter, two sisters, and le enrollment is good awl the average attendance is holding up well. There young ladies | seem to n" getting along nicely with! the school. The school is beautifully located in a fine grove but the land is in some way a property that be- j loners to the Universalist church. The j well on the grounds is in bad condition and the trustees should g've it attention at once. It is a dug well and is cpen and dangerous. Utopia. From Hartford I drove out to Utopia. This is a one teacher school j taught this year by Miss Bess Herbert and she is doing excellent work, i The attendance is good and while! there are more children enrolled this! year than for some years in the recent past there are not near so nr-my children in the district as there wore somt* years ago. There is goo.l talk now among the people out this side of building a new an 1 modern house and locating it different so 'that at least part of Deadfall may come in j and then the district will be able at j least to have two teachers and possi-; bly three. The two schools are going to have a ioint picnic at the close and t-'u.r.'t wo will follr nvpr matters <? L U i I Civ L - I I i ?? I* AX ^ VM/?? v . _ _ _ of consolidation and other things that are for the good of the school. Utopia and Hartford are both very well fixed-financially. In fact Utopia carried over from last year a bigger balance than any rural district in the county and Hartford with an eight mills tax will be'able to run seven months without any state aid. Utopia ^*> am n m ill f n v flitS uia^ a unv; nun vc.A. About the worst piece of public road that I have seen in the county is just before you reach the Utopia school. I understand that it is to be repaired very soon. To do so and have it so that the repair will last the road will have to be relocated. Under the excellent plan adopted by the highway commission of working a specified time in each township the force will be able to do something out this side before long. So bad was the road that I decided to come back J around by 0. W. Long's and Chair man Boulware's and into town by tlie Deadfall road. A new'jroad was opened last year, or shortTpiece of new road, from Mr. W. I. Herbert's to Mr. 0. W. Long's and it is fine and I am told that the road on to Deadfall is fine. Friday I am groin# to Long Lane and I am going out about 12 o'clock. In the afternoon there is to be a poj tato meeting and I will remain over I - - ' " ' -1- J X. 4> ?1? for that, l snail De giau iu mecthe patrons at this school as there are some matters in regard to the school which we should talk over together.

"Sho am glad to git back on terra cotta again." \ I Fun-Maker i Extraordinary ! at Chautauqua i 1 11 ' < I Kalph Bingham, one of America's ! greatest fun-makers, will be a notable attraction at the coming Redpath Chautauqua.
