ELECTION RETURNS
The Observer and The Herald and
News in order the better to serve the
people and to facilitate the getting;
out of the news promptly have decided
to combine forces and issue only
one table of election returns on the
night of the election.
Headquarters will be at The Observer
office a\d the bulletin board
will be placed in front of the office
and the news will be placed on the
board just as rapidly as it is received.
Friends of the papers and those
who are managers will confer a favor
and assist materially in getting
returns out early if they will phone
the result as soon as the count at any
box is completed. The Observer
phone is 87. Some one will also be
at the phone at The Herald and News
office and will take returns there.
The phone of The Herald and News
is 1. But we ask that all returns be
sent promptly to The Observer.
We will have experts to handle the
figures and the tables and the type
and with the cooperation of the managers
and our friends in the county
we will be able to get out the full
returns early.
We will also buleltin such news
from the state as we may be able to
secure.

SOME MORE TROUBLE WITH
THE MACHINE
Not exactly the machine, but the
burner which gives the flame to keep
the metal hot. And it always gives
out on the day we have to go to press
as was the case on Monday, and in
fact it has been giving trouble all the
while for the last two months, and
fViof Knf nf rvnv

knowledge for the past two months,
and we have not been able to get up
the type we should.
We dislike to make excuses and
apologies for not getting the paper
out on time, or for failure to get the
ropy that should be set up for the paper.
But it seems that the trouble
will never end.
We have just ordered an electric
burner and they say that they do not
give trouble, and yet when the current
goes off there \vill oe no heat,
but now since they have gotten the
additional current there is not so
much danger of the current giving us
trouble. We hope to have it on the
machine within the next two weeks,

FINE GET TOGETHER MEETING
HELD AT CHAPPELLS
I attended the meeting at Chappells
arranged by the Newberry
chamber of commerce for last Thursday
afternoon. I could not get off
from Newberry as soon as most of
the party but Mr. J. A. Burton kindly
offered me a seat in his car, and as
he was delayed some little I could accept.
It is no longer near so far as
it once was to Chappells, though the
.real mileage is slightly more than formerly,
but in this day we do not
meansure distance in miles but in
hours and minutes, even when traveling
on the highways. We reached the
town just after Col. Hunt -began his
speech. I did not get there in time
to hear Rev. Pettigrew, but I am
sure he made fine talk. Then there
were brief talks by Col. Z. F. Wright,
Col. J. M. Davis, Col. W. H. Wallace,
Col. C. P. McDanie, Mr Neal
Workman and Col. M. L. Connelly.
They all talked about cooperation
and good roads and the creamery
and how fine it was for all of us to
know each other better, and really it
was a good fellowship meeting and
every one was in good humor. Every
one was proud of the fine road that
makes the town of Cnappells so near
to Newberry, and we all have a just
pride in this good road.
I could not help feeling that while
they were all telling about the good
roads and the fine spirit of cooperation
and the creamery and the other
good things, that not a single speaker
mentioned the reallv greatest
thing that Chapells has. and
so far as I could hear not even the
remotest effort was made to it, and
at one time I felt that I would like to
make just a brief speech myself, but
then I did not go for that purpose.
But really and truly the greatest
thing that Chappelis has and the biggest
asset is the brick school house
that stands up on the hill. And just
out about six miles from Chappelis
i 1 rtere is now about completing anJoiher
brick school housy. and I ex;pect
the best and most complete
'school house in South Carolina in any
one teacher school district, and Chappells
has a six room school building
jwith a line auditorium and with ample
facilities for a hi^h school, i-.nd
;when it was built it !iad only a two
j teacher school and a wooden house
; that was a'bout to fall down. Really
: it would have been a good thimr to
have held this meeting at the school
house so that the visitors who had
never been to Chappells could have
seen what a fine school building the
t^wn V??s;. and it has not only a fine
building but it also maintains a tine
school. And in a few more years as
the large plantations which are in
this community are cut up into small.
er farms and owned by white ceople
there will be a hiurh school at this
place, and when the trustees built
some ten years ago they had a vision
of the future and built t;:< meet these
conditions. The fact is. this is ar.d
always has been a line section of the
county, and has been noted for the
culture and intelligence of its people,
and for its fine country homes!
with all the convenie.n:es. The stranger
does not get a fair idea of the j
community from simply a visit to tne j
town and the railroad station. Vou
must get up on the hill to see just
mmmnnitv IS
wnai a mic wuwuui*...,,, _
around here.
But it was a fine meeting and will
do good. It is well for all of us to
know one another better and to take
off from business now and again even
a short social hour. Another reflection
came to me as I heard the
speakers tell about the road and what
it has done for Newberry and for
Chappells, and that is this, that I
dare say I could show by the files of
The Herald and News for the last 25
years that I have written more about
the necessity and the importance of
building a road to Chappells and to
Whitmire than all others things .combined,
and so much and so often that
sometimes I was afraid the people
would consider it a joke, and I am
pleased that I have been spared to
see the accomplishment of this dream
of good highways between these two
towns. It was a fact, that to most
of the people of the town of Newberry
these two communities were
just the same as if they had been lo*
" - a? *?
cated aiar on m some vmcj.
of the state, because of their inaccessibility
on account of there being no
roads. I tried time after time to tell
th? people of Newberry how important
it was to the town of Newberry
and to the business interests of this
community to have better roads leading
into the town from these sections
of the county, but they seemed not
to take me seriously, and I am now ;
greatly pleased to see my contention '
lor so many years so heartily endors-!
ed by the people of Newberry. And
the next trip is to Whitmire. That I
will be easy now. I remember not j
so many years ago, in fact just about
ten, when I undertook to go to Whit-1
mire with Mr. W. H. Hand, then sup- j
ervisor of high schools for South;
r\ ir ?" -J malo flip '
V^eirOlIIIiij Wt unuciiuun >,w i? - j
trip and left Newberry at 8 o'clock j
in the morning, and it took us until.
six o'clock in the afternoon to get
there, and while we made a couple
stops at Betheden and Cromer and
Tril'by schools, the stops were brief,
and then we had to walk from the
Phifer place and send the vehicle
back. I believe it was Dr. Snyder |
who said, "Civilization began when
the thumb began to cooperate with
the other four fingers." It is true
that we can not live to ourselves
alone, and that a community only begins
to make progress when the people
of the community begin to realize
the importance of cooperation,
and what is true of a community is
true of a county. * '
i
Going to Chappells is like going
home to me. My old home is only
six miles beyond the town, and that
is one reason I am so anxious to get
the three miles of road from Chappells
to the river completed. Of
course, not the main reason, but the
selfish reason. I remember when the
Boazmans and the Lipscombs and the
Watkins and the Simkins boys and
Captain Bill Smith were the prominent
citizens of the community, and
they were all large land owners, and t
they lived well and had plenty. I,
helped build the first store at Chap- j
pels for Mr. Geo. T. Reid when he
came to do business at the town. It
stood facing the railroad about the
center of the present main street:
leading down to the river. It along j
with* all the other buildings was
swept away some years ago when a
cyclone or tornado came along thatj
way and wiped the entire town off the j
ground. The Holloways and Pope,
Coleman had not then moved to
Chappells. Mr. J. R. Irwin, I suppose
at present, is the oldest citizen
of the town in the point of continu-1
anc-e of residence. And a mighty good
citizen he is too. Mr. John B. Boazman
lived in the home now owned by
Mr. J. B. Scurry. One of the Wat-f
kins boys lives at the Captain Jas. N.
Lipscomib home. Mr. Holloway oci
cupies the home where Captain W. R.
Smith lived. Mr. John Watkins and
Mr. William Watkins lived further
out, and 1 think negroes are now living:
in these two fine old country
; homes. The Simkins place is on the
; highway between Chappells and the
j river and is now occupied by ne
groes. Many changes have taken
' place and I hope all for the better.

A STATEMENT
Some weeks ago there ;>ppeare?I in
the local columns of The Herald and
News an item purporting to enumeiate
the leading merjV.tus of Newberry,
md the nam-.* of J. A. Mimnaugh
?b'rl not appear >i? I no list.
Mr. Mimnaugh, w> thirl: rightly,
took exception to th? local as an unfair
dtal. We so CDid :rim and a'sc
voluntarily stated that we would publish
a statement to that effect. The
editor does not undertake to relieve
himself of responsibility for the appearance
of the item, though along
about that time some items did get
! in without the knowledge of the editor.
T" flwi loQ^irKT m PV

chants of Newberry, of course the
name of J. A. Mimnaugh should appear,
because he has been here longer
than any other merchant i?t his
line, and has done a very large business
and has made a success of the
business. We make this statement in
justice to Mr Mimnaugh and his ibus
iness. He has been for many years ]
a good friend of the editor of The
Herald and News and also of the paper.
And we esteem his friendship
and regret the incident. And besides ;
it has always been our purpose to be i
fair to every one, friend and foe. 1

SCHOOL AND COMMUNITY PICNIC
AT VAUGHNVILLE SEPT 15
The new and handsome school
building in the Vaughnville school
district has been completed and the
school will open on September 18. It *
is the plan to have a big picnic and 1
public meeting at the school house J
on the Friday preceding the opening I
of the schooi and all the people round J
about are invited to be present and *
to bring a basket with something ^
good to eat in it and enjoy the day *
with the good folk of the Vaughnville ^
community. 1
An interesting and helpful pro- ^
gram is being arranged and will be *
published soon and this will include
several short talks by prominent educators
of the state and may be some *
of the local people. Any how it will
be worth your while to meet with the
good people of the community on this 2
day. The state superintendent of *
education will be there and the state t
organizer of improvement associa- 1
tions and the president of Newberry v
' ^?i?i. t
college ana tne superintendent- ui
the Newberry city schools. And there r
will be music and everything to make *
the day a pleasant and hanpy one. c
* t
Last Friday morning I went down *
to Central to help the trustees locate 1
the buildirt^, and the well and in or- t
der to give them the opportunity to c
get through in time to go to the cam- *
paign meeting at Jolly Street I was c
at Adam Aull's at 7 o'clock in time 1
to enjoy a good breakfast with him r
and family and then we went over to
the grounds and located the site for 1
the building and the well and Mr. I.
A. McDowell, the well man, was there c
4
and by the evening he had the well L
completed and the material is being t
hauled and Mr. J. C. Epting who has ?
charge of the building will begin *
work at once and within four weeks k
we expect to have this building ready
for the children. This is to be a one 5
teacher school and the understanding ^
is thaf the teacher shall j?ive all her ?
time to the grades from the seventh (
down and that all the' children who
have completed the 7th grade and *
who are ready for high school shall
go either to Little Mountain or Po- *
maria, and Central shall be a sort
of feeder for these high schools. c
This will be to the advantage of the t
small children and will <be helpful to c
the community. And then we are 1
buiding along with the class room an t
auditorium where can be held meetings
of any kind that will be benefi-!
cial to the people of the community j
and school entertainments. The build- t
ing is a little off the road from Po- r
maria to Little Mountain but the t
people of the community in cooperation
with the highway commission I

IlciVtJ IU UptM U iuau HVIU LUX*
main road around by the school housj
and this will give a nice entrance;]
from either direction. It will make a'<
fine community center. While the
=chool house is not very far from the ^
schools at Pomaria or Little Moun- j
tain this is a very thickly settledj
white community and the school cen-'
ter will help to develop it even more
and be beneficial in many ways.
After getting through at Central
J drove around by Pomaria and came
on to the barbecue and public speak-1
ing at Jolly Street. There was a
large crowd present and in fact some
of the speakers say the largest crowd
that they had had since the campaign
opened and they all gave the speakers
fine attention. There was a fine
dinner served and the makers of the |
cue also had meat to sell to those who
wanted to take some home for the j
folk who could not come to the barbecue.
And yet do you know the
people are talking less politics than I
ever heard in any campaign and that;
does not mean that there is going to
be a light vote but I Toelieve the peo- \
pla are going to vote without pas-1
sion and prejudice and so doing they :
will come near doing the right thing.!
I
I
am glad to hear that the highway
commission is going to 'build a ;
road from Pomaria to Little Moun-!
tain. This should be done at once
and there should not be very much j
change in the location except to
avoid some of the grades and to j
straighten where it does not take the '
road away from the homes or in the,
rear of the homes because this will j
not be a tourist highway but one for j
the benefit ana convenience of the!
neighborhood and even if it should
bend just a little and be a little fur-j
ther it should accommodate the peo-f
pie of the community first and main-!
ly. j

The Pomaria highway is getting
along nicely. Ihe lorce was at work;
in the town of Pomaria and the hill;
this side has been graded down and j
the jagged rocks that have always:
made it bad have been covered and
placed out of sight, if they will just
stay covered. The road all the way,
to Caldwell Ruff's has been graded
sxcept the crossing at Cannon's
;reek where the location was chang-,
ed and the bridge has not yet been
completed. The road across from (
Pomaria to Prosperity, should tie sur-'
^eyed and relocated and then worked
jp so that this crossing could be \
Tiade better. Many places the road
?oes right up the hill^ There is talk
low of the people defiling to do what
f havp rponmmenderttfor the nast ten
^ears, put Jolly Street and St. Pauls
schools into one and if this is done
;he road should be located before the ,
louse place is selected. This is what;
;hese districts should do. I have told '
;he people so for m^ny years and it
s up to them whether or not theyivill
have a good school or try to run 1
;wo with a strain financially. '

:OURSE OF STUDY FOR ELEMENTARY
SCHOOLS I1
The State Board of Education!
tdopted the past summer books for J
;he use of the public schools but in j
he adoption they left a good many j
exts optional, that is they adopted i J
vhat is termed a basal book, and .]
hen an optional book, and that
neans that a teacher may use the j
)asal or the optional book. It is the 1
lesire of'the county board of educa
ion for this county that so far as 1
)ossible or practicable there be a un-'
form text 'book in all the schools of 1
he county so that pupils g:>ing from
me district to another would not ^
lave to change books. So far as we
ould we followed the books to be *
ised in the city schools of Newber-1
y. i *
The State Board in its foreword 1
nakes the following observations:
"Extensive modifications of this 1
ourse are necessary in schools
aught by one teacher and in short- 1
erm schools. For details and sugcestions

Toast Proposed by Loyal Scot Worthy i
of a Place Even in Scrapbook of
Good Republican. j j
The following wns on Hip hack of a .
postal card receatly revived hv a '
Kansas Cityan from a friend ift Brussels.
It evidently was composed during
the life of the late Queen Victoria
:
'Woo, Gentlemen, fill a' your glioses,
for I'm about to bring forrit The
Queen'. (Applause.) Our Queen, gen- (
tlernen, is really a wonderfu' woman,
if I may say it. She's ane' <>' the
guri auld sort, nae whigmaleerles or
falderals aboot her, but a douce, daicent
bodie. Respectable beyond a'
doot. She's brocht up a grand family

son wad be a credit to ony mither,
and they're a' eel married?a'e dauehter
is nae less than married to the
duke o' Argyle's son and heir (Cheers.)
Gentlemen, ye'il maybe no believe it,
but I ance saw the Queen. (Sensation.)
I did. It was when I took my auld
broon coo to the Perth Show. I mind
o' her weel?sic colour! sic hair! sic
(Interruptions, and cries of 'Is it the
coo or the Queen that ye're propos- i

your pardon, but I was talkin' of the
coo. However, as to the Queen; some- j
body pointed her oot to me at the ,
Perth Station. And there she was, .
smart and tidy-like; and says I to
myself, 'Gin my auld woman at hame
slips awa', ye needna remain a widow
anither boor langer'. (Cheers.) Xoo, j

ON THE ROOF OF THE WORLD1
Englishman's Description of Life in
the Andes Mountains Makes Inter,
esting Reading.
In a recent expedition to Peru Mr.
Joseph Barcroft of the University of
Cambridge did some exploring in the
higher Andes and made some interest- ,
Ing discoveries, which are told in the
British Medical Journal. I
At 12,000 feet cows gave milk; at
13,000 feet they gave little or none. At
15,000 feet there were no cows. At
11,000 feet fleas disappeared, though
lice remained so long as there were
human beings.
At these heights men have lived for
many generation's, having become acclimatized
to the rarefied air. Many !
of them lived in chimneyless and M'indowless
houses; they had a purely
communal system of government, and
some of their customs would hardly
appeal to more civilized races. When
a native was very ill, for instance, the
date of his funeral was fixed without
reference to his convenience, and an
official saw to it that he was ready to
keep the appointment.
It was remarkable what loads the
people were able to carry at these
altitudes. A boy of about thirteen
would carry from rne interior 01 a
mine a burden of forty pounds, ascending
a staircase with it from a point
250 feet below, while a full-grown man
would carry one hundred pounds of
metal, yet the European was out of
breath if he carried his coat up a
slight incline.
!
Stump Cutter Does Work Rapidly.
Tree stumps can l?e cut o!f at ground
level, or as much as 30 inches below,
very rapidly by a machine, described
and illustrated in the Popular Mechanics
Magazine, that does the cutting
with a sort of combined band and
circular saw, for though jt is fiat, like
a band saw, it is % inch thick, and
maintains its circular shape. The saw
is rotated rapidly by a small gasoline
engine, and when cutting below ground,
it is started some distance from the
- *? ? -3 itnd fn/1 H A W T?.
Slump, auu IS S1WI?VU auu i\.u uv..u
ward so that it* descends into the
ground aud strikes the stump at the
desired depth. After cutting through
the stump the slope of the saw is reversed,
and It proceeds to cut upward,
ending by having cut out a saucershaped
section of the ground containing
the tree stump.
Sarcastic.
A farm hand who had worked every
day in the week from dawn till late at
night, finishing his duties by lantern
light, went to the fanner at the end of
the month and said:
"I am g01I)g T?? U?ave. JUU p: u:uia<7u
me a steady jo!>."
"Well, haven't you one?" was the
astonished reply.
"Xo," said the worker. "There are
three or lour hours every night when
I don't have anything to do except fool
away mv time sleeping."
Want Library for Every Ship.
During the recent war the American
Library association placed for the use
of the men of the merchant marine
ships a total of 2;">0.000 hooks. These
books were made up into libraries and
shifted from one vessel to another.
Recently the American Merchant .Marine
Library association has been organized
for the purpose of carrying
