Let 'Em Know Through The Times REPORT OIL CLARENDON COUNTY'S, JAIL Sheriff E. B. Gamble, Jailor. Visit ed Septemboi- 2"1910, .Dy .Assistant Secretary Broyles. Prisoners,. day of visit, 4. Since our 1918 inspection of this plant the Commissioners have made some improvements, for which we commend them. As we recommended be done, they have built a dining room and kitchen for the sheriff dis carding the inconvenient and unsani tary kitchen shack formerly used. The new kitchen and dining room have been screened properly but water has not yet been put in a convenient place. We recommend that the Com missioners complete the kitchen by installing a good sink, with running water, both hot and cold. The phase of the institution which deserves most attention at this time, is the condition of the bedding. We foun dthe prisoners on the second floor sleeping on a steel floor, with ONE blanket under each prisoner. No one can sleep in comfort in such a manner and there is no county in South Carolina' too poor to furnish proper bedding for its prisoners. "We recommend that the Commission ers purchase metal wall bunko for the cells or buy a supply of . good iron cots. The wall bunks are much bet ter, and also cheaper in the long run because they are aifficult to tear down or destroy. The jail once had canvas hammocks in them, but we do not advise the purchase of new ones, since they are easily destroyed by the prisoners, in addition to curving in sych a manner as to make it impos sible for a person to sleep in them except when lying flat upon his back. In addition to the bunks, the sheriff needs a supply of blankets and straw ticks. We recommend that the sheriff have the entire jail scoured out weekly when prisoners are present; that no prisoner be allowed to use the same bedding more than a month without washing it; that each new prisoner be made to bathe thoroughly as soon as he is committed to lesson the danger of ' getting vermin in the building; and that when a new supply of blan kets is provided each new prisoner be given clean blankets for his bunk. This will lessen the danger of spread ing disease, which is liable when dif ferent people use the same bedding without washing it thoroughly. State Board of Charties and Correc tions. G. Crowfore Williams, Secretary. --- o GREAT HELP TO BUSINESS "Yes Sir, Mr. Editor, the 'est proof that we believe heart and soul in the liberal use of printers ink is shown by the amount of newspaper advertis ing used by our Company." This statement was made a few days ago by Mr. Macklin, Publicity Representa tive of the Atlantic Coast Realty Co., to the editor of this paper. Our conversation with the represen tative of the Realty Company was most interesting, because he proved! his statement that newspaper adver tising does pay. The name of the Atlantic Coast Realty Company is familiar to most of the newspaper-reading public all over the south. Why? Because it is kept before 'the people through newspaper l alvertising, in fact, it has about got to the point when you automatichily think of the name when you hear of a real estate auction sale. Thousands of dollars are spent each year in newspaper publicity telling the neople about the land which is of fered by this progressive company. Proof that it pays is shown by the sue cess of the land sales contuetel by thenm. You ean't sell w-int. you have to offer unless you can interest the peonle ini what you have to sell.
