Editor THE ThxEs: Will yon allow me space to enter a pro test against a foolish custom? I had hoped that our new town council would discontinue the ordinance that re. quires the policeman to ring the town bel) each hour of the night. This bell is at the town hall, south of the court house pIazza, and about 400 yards from the business block. To strike this bell each hour of the night the policeman muset leave the vital pot of his watch and traverse this dis tance, climb a long fiight of steps and en ter an apartment. The time required tc do this gives ample time for them to smash a glass and abstract two double-barre: guns, force a window, rob and fire a build ing, or open a warehouse door with falst keys and carry away sacks of coffee and Why such a foolish, absurd, ridiculoum and castly custom to property ownert shold be persisted in is beyond the power ofmy reasoning faculties. The ringing of the bell is entirely un. necesary, but if considered indispensablt to kep policeman on duty, then why not hang it on the plazza, say midway between the northeast and northwest corner of the sae? IIt seems,~ too, that prudence would sug. nest that the police be ordered to allow ne person to remain with them after a certain reasonable hour of the night, and that they be instructed to accost each and every citi zen seen on the streets after said hout ;hos actions seem at all suspicious, and that ther~ names and the hour be noted fot future reference.

Smith of Sumter, prezen candidate for Superintendent of Educatiot on the Prohibition ticket. then addresse the audience on education in a masterl effort. While not opposed to St:te aid t State institutions of higher learning, h said the school per capita of State aid wa only $2.37 to the free schools, while it wa 1.97 to the colleges. This he thought at injustice, that the common free school suffered thereby, instead of being fostere. as te State's nurary, that in this grea inequality the injustice lay. Professor Acermnan, principal of the Laki City High School,' an accomplished teache and Rev. Mr. Kirton gave an address or education. Both of these gentlemen de lighted the audience. Professor Acermart "mnade a hit" when in the course of hi address he said that the usual three month free school term would never give a Chilh an education; that the avei'age biy an girl of this day would generally forget wha they had learned in the lonig interval elaps ing between the free school terms. Last but not least, the audience was no invited to a sumptuous dinner of ever; good thing eatable that those good peopl know how to prepare.
