I' Tuesday, May 17, 1921. jr 1 |f We notice that some of the ladies ; ] are talking about reviving the civic j1 association in Newberry. That is a good to do. Such an organization can , do a lot of good at this time. The ^ Herald and News will be glad to lend : -whatever help^ it may be able. The streets and the roads are1 c somewhat torn up but we can stand ,1 a little inconvenience when we con- 1 sider what we are soon to have. Good \ c k./ ???/}?? nn/1 cona nca A'f tVlPTYl IS H ! auu mow ? I great thing for this country. The s same as to streets. The only trouble a we see is that we need more of them a than we can get at this time, but then p there i* a wave sweeping over the y country now for road improver* .nt! I and it is coming. ;p ?? jn We were under the impression that it the contract had been let for the j a building of the road to Chappells to; ? XT-?s%nonxr Knf : f tne i^ewcu | ,.. that must be a mistake. We notice j is an advertisement in the Record the v other day for* bids to build the road j i1 from Newberry nearly six miles out i< the Deadfi^% road. The contract to be j w let on the 26th of this month, we T think it is. A force is now at work;V on this road from Silverstreet toward; p Chappells and the,road has been graa-iii ed almost to the long bridge. And the j tl greater part of this road has been re- J o located and a new road made. 11< |t, A ra^r.y May generally means a bad: a crop year, and especially a bad year j v for cotton. Ajid then it means much ^ t< damage to the grain crop, and that is s bad iecause we need the grain this year.. There has been n very slight reduction in the cotton h acreage and may be if the rainy sea- ii son keeps here this will reduce the o acreage without very much Cost to a the average farmr, because he will be J c * saved .the working of the crop. In a: b great many cases the farmer has had c to replant on account of the cold day3 c and nights. - And with the boll weevil ij in sight the prospect for a big cotton t crop is not very promising at this a time. i a Tl - ' J4-Ua amK? f 'IX seems to us- -timi- <twui hjc umjr way that the notice of Sheriff Blease 11 warning motorists that he was going1 to enforce the state law as to speeding, is.to be made worth while, is for|c him to equip his rural policemen with it motorcycles and place them on the, t road where the speeding is going on,, <3 and let them patrol the road. A sim- v pie notice in the newspapers is not go-. <= ing to amount even to a scrap of pa-1 k per. ! t A few wholesome fines will do more, c than anything you can think of just j c nrkw V\iTf tVio snepHers must be caueht's ?? f V**V ~?* ~ ~ ? - w j before the fines can be imposed, and k the people are going to depend upon: the officers of the law to enforce it. |r * From what every one says there'c must be some speeding going on even i before the roads are completed. But i "everyone" is not going to act as in- c former. c We are confidently expecting Sher-'s iff B' - se and his deputies to get ac- a tive and enforce the state law. jt ine state nignway cumiiuaaiuu m ~ securing numbers had them so painted c that it is difficult to read the number c "When the car is moving nnd it e,in c scarcely be jead whe i the car !s not moving, unless you are very near, j r Protect "the speeders from them- I selves, and the only way to revive; s the memory so that when the speeder c starts speeding he wil lbe reminded 1 that Sheriff Blease and his deputies i are on the job, is to bring him be- t fore the law and the fine is going to I be a good reminder as well. Every. > one should cooperate with Sheriff * Blease and his deputies in this com-!1 won/iaKlo work which he savs he is i going to do- to save the people who t drive and the innocent people who do '> not drive. As it is now it is reallvi ! dangerous to venture out very far, if * you desire to carry all your limbs with >; you, or even to return home alive. ?'adv TUT? ppMrny ! < VY UI\I\ 1 lib Mr. Charles M. Swab in a speech; ^ not very long: ago is quoted as saying < something like this, in the matter of ] labor and work and the building up j? of our commercial interest, and he ] seems to be of the opinion that Ger-i; many will win her position in the commercial world quicker than any I < of the great nations on account ofi; the efficiency of her labor, and not [ ] only on a:count of the efficiency of the labor, but of the willingness of;, these German laborers to do a full b day's work for a full day's pay. A;< great many of us in this country whoj< labor seem to be perfectly willing: and anxious to have a full day's pay, butjj t has seemed to us that we want it f m ometimes for not more than a half i tc lay's work. j p< Mr. Swab is quoted as saying that j w 'fundamentally the basis of all mod- j 'in progress is the efficiency of la- j )or, aud I have been wondering 1,1 vhether the labor of Germany, hav- j 1 ng passed through the crucible of tri-, t>1 lis and tribulations of warfare, has ^ lot placed that great and already ef- , icient nation in a position that will j ^ nake us look well to our laurels, if ndeed we do not lose the benefits of , ^ everything we have so justly won. ar rherefore, the question is one of that haracter that we must face today, th ' /SC _ J I. ~ J ' ierman worKmen are eracieiu aau,jlerman workmen are eager for work,;th md German workmen will give a full,m lay's work for a full day's pay, and es ipon that basis is built all the great de ndustry and prosperity of every ar ountry. iWJ "In Germany today, for example, i teel can be placed in England at 820 ! i ton below England's cost. I have ed works in Germany where we madejta neumatic tools, which was bulit ten go ears ago, and we shipped them from sc - - .1 /~\ ' )etroit and sold tnem as merman we roducts at half their cost?the Gor-' mi lan's cost. Today they can ship; nij hes? tools from Germany to Detroit, ta t haif our cost." - | of The truth of the matter is, one of:d< he troubles we have in this country > that labor wants a full day's pay, rhich it should have, but somehow;sei ; seems to us that it does not have an [ ^ lea that there should be a full day's ig0 rork in return for the full day's pay. ve 'here should be reciprocal relations. te( Ve earnestly believe in a full day's !^e i ay, but we just as earnestly believe l a full day's work in return for hat pay. And such relations is the | ^ nly way to solve many of the prob-j^ ?ms that confront us today. The!^, sndency seems to be to do less work i ^ nd get more pay. The thing will notj rork out right and for the best in-! ' ! ne erest of all parties concerned on anyi , i S tc uch basis. In fact work is a great panacea fori lany of the ills which we imagine we jn ave, for many of our troubles are sei naginary, or as some put it psychol-! j } gic. Work and then more work is;f0 bout the only mediciii^Tfchat will' ]ai ure. We can never get anywhere,) y sitting down and" moaning and omplaining about the tinves or the no onditions. If the times are out ofj-^oint and conditions not what we 1 cj( 1 - ' ' > 1 1 J - XI 1 __ i rnnK rney snouia De ir.e umy way W| .pply the remedy is to go to work! "" ,nd forget your troubles. This rem-1 "" dy is good for the individual and for; he nation. People who work have no ] ime to find fault and complain. One of the things the. civic asso- i iation -might do- is to -get'in behindhe trustees of the Rosemont cemeery and see if something could be [one to improve the roads and driveyavs at this Dlace. Many of the own ?rs of lots are taking an interest in! :eeping their individual lots in beauiful condition, but with the horrible Iriveways and the unclean condition if them, not to speak of the trash jid holes and ditches, even a well :ept lot will not look nice. We have many times before refered to the condition of this city of the j lead and the poor manner in which it f - ' 1 ??J ~ U aak* nnoKln f A ! S Kepu, aim we nave uccu uuawic w jet any response, so we had about | oncluded that the only thing we ould do was to look after our own quares and let th? streets go. so long I is they did not get impassable, and hey are almost to that point now, but ince the suggestion to organize the j ivic association, may be with their ooperation we can get something lone. The present condition of the Rose nont cemetery is a reflection on the jeople of this community. And we are I satisfied that every citizen of the ommunity would gladly and willingy contribute his share to have it nade in such condition as it should >e. In this day of road and street )uilding the wonder is that the people vho make regular visits to Rosemont, * ind those who go only on occasion, _ vould permit the roads and driveways n this city of the dead to remain in heir present conition without making i loud protest that could be heard. s> f AMONG THE SCHOOLS ?/ 1 I regret very much thai we had to ?all off the meeting at Utopia on last Friday and the joint picnic with that , school and the Deadfall school. We lad arranged to have a fine meeting at this place but on account of the rain 1 did not go out at all. Prof. Gunter came down from Greenville according to appointment but went back on the next train. He says he will come again and as soon as I can confer with Miss Elizabeth Herbert and the pe of the community we will call another meeting and I hope some arrangement can be made and agreement come to by which we can '7| J. improve school conditions in this com-l| unity. In other words we are going \ ? make effort to advise with these c ?ople and try to do something that ill be for the good of the children. 1 : I I al>o failed to keep my appointed at Silverstreet last Friday night. 1 lip cnr> Mmp nut in rhp afternoon ( it I was just a little afraid to tackle ] e Silverstreet road especially in the < ght time and alone.
