A song writer struck a keynote vital to thy country's life soine time ago when the query was sounded, "How are you going to keep 'em down on the tarin?" The problems involved in that phiase have assumed mountainous proportions. The dearth of farm help and the migration of young people of the rural communities to the cities is respon gible in no small measure for the high cost of all foods and the scarcity of many heretofore abundant products of the farm. Wartime wages in the industrial centers have naturally attracted the farm hand, but behind it all lies the lure of the city, with its amusements, bright lights and greater educational opportunities. The younger generation will not remain secluded and alone on the farm in the face of this callI of the bigger world. NO KOOM FOK DESTRUCTIVE RADICALISM. Radicalism in America first began with parlor discussion.'The men who took pains to appear sophisticated, wise and well read in the tenets of "advanced thought"?usually imported from the old world?for years had easy sailing and obtained constant accessions to their ranks. But radicalism, like flood, must seek its level, and in the course of several decades radicalism became more radical, and what at first was tolerated as a peculiar brain-kink has In many instances become a menace. Apostles of unrest cannot offer the American workingman a practical program that leads to a tenth as much happiness as the system we are following, despite its minor faults. This may not be a perfect age, but there is no reason to believe that anarchy would be any nearer that goal? in* deed, there is every reason to believe it would be a disseminator of misery, unhappiness and untold suffering. N0 one objects to co ructive critici.vn of political matu *?, no one undervalues discussion for political reform and legitimate efforts towards securing a better future for mankind. But detructive criticism, and the cult of destruction, cannot be tolerated in a society resting on order and well being. The apostles of destruction, however, have reached every community in America in some form, but so far as South Carolina is concerned?leaving other states to take care of the problems in them as they are found ?the overwhelming sentiment is that the foes of government need not stick around. Mr. Bryan is happiest when he is pointing out the faults in the other fellow. If No. 80 should happen to arrive on time there wouldn't be anybody! at the station to meet it. The quickest way to suppress the j spirit of unrest throughout the country is to adjourn congress indefinite* i If as many as ten women could arrange their little social affairs over the party telephone line at the same time, just think what a stimulus it would be to business. T* I* tlift o nr _ flit* nrvi t j 110 j/i itr v/i iuc a ? v i ??, 0 iui vvmv has gone to $600, which leads us to believe that the trappers have adopted the same hours as other workmen. Putting it on the basis of value received, the workman has been underpaid if congress has earned half its salary since last March. We wonder why the railroad authorities do not try the plan of running No. 80's hour of arrival up to three or four o'clock in the afternoon? An hour or two ahead of time is not quite so bad as from one to six hours late. t Our packers are still permitted to control the price of meat, eggs, poultry and cheese. That's as far as they orn qHau-pH tn cr? Onfsido nf that thev must be satisfied with the same privileges that consumers enjoy. The members of the next general assembly will be paid $10 instead of $5 per day. The only objection one can have to the increase is that it will have a tendency to produce a larger crop of candidates. A bill is before the New York legislature to appoint a joint committee, with an expense fund of $10,000, to find out just what constitutes intoxicating liquors. Shades of John Barleycorn! Won't there be a scramble to get on that committee? ???????j?p?? ? I Dr. Wiley, the food expert, says the \ best way to avoid the flu is to cut out1 J whiskey. The Herald's readers will please take due notice and follow Dr. Wiley's advice. .1 'J Tailors are sore at the men be1 cause they don't go in for styles to < a greater extent. What we fear is 1 that a few centuries from now some 1 critic will discover one of our style ' < plates of college clothes and get the j idea that it is a true likeness of the ; | men of our day. I I The $150.0(Mi -appropriated by the senate to fight the boll weevil will ] do some good, but the most effective i jway to fight the boll weevil is to be- ' gin now to build houses to take care 1 ;of the crops that will have to be rais- ' ed in lieu of cotton when the boll1 j weevil arrives. js i j This "own your 0wn home" crusade j I that is sweeping the country is all | I right. All those who can own their i [Own homes should do so. But the sit- ? uation must not be top-heavy on the } buying side. There must be houses to , rent, also; and this holds good for ev- ( ery community. In every industrial J and near-industrial town there is a ' certain percentage of labor turnover; 1 of men who come when the plants t are busy and leave when they are ] busy elsewhere. Manufacturers must rely on a supply of workers when ? they need them, and if they all were tied down with homes in every other j municipality they would be hard hit. ] There must be a certain amount of 1 flexibility in the labor situation. For ' this reason it is absolutely necessary j that there be houses constructed for t as rent as well as for sale. 1 1 Many unsophisticated gentry are never so happy as when picking flaws in the contents of a newspaper publication. They sit back and criticise and rarely boost; in fact, folks who are in this state of mind couldn't bring themselves to say a kind word even if they inwardly felt the situation required it. But if the average editor took tQ criticising everything that needed it his readers and the public would put him down as a soundless knocker, a pest and a malevolent mischief-maker. And such an editor would be kept so busy that he wouldn't have time for anything else but censure. In Memoi'iani. In loving rememberance of our baby, Iona, who died January 25, 1920; 1 A precious one from us gone, A voice Wo loved is stilled: A place is vacant in our home That never can be filled. Earth has lost its look of gladness, Heaven seems to us more bright, Since the spirit of our dear one^ Took its happy homeward flight. And we look to cross that river, Long to rest upon that shore, There to see and know and love her, With the Savior over more. Tis hard to break the tender cord w When love has bound the heart, Tis hard s0 hard, to speak the word, "We must ever part. Asleep in Jesus, blessed sleep; From which none ever wakes to weep; A calm and undisturbed repose, Unbroken by the lost of foes. By Her Mother. SAW YARD MAS TELLS EX| PEItlEXCE WITH FEKKOLAX. lit. X.

Black, a well known employee at the Navy Yards, and who lives j at 184 King St., Charleston, S.

I not only suffered 1 from headaches, but my entire system was in a badly run-down condition, and I just felt weak and worn out all the time. I had very little energy or strength and never felt like getting up in the mornings. Then I heard about Ferrolax and decided to give it a trial and it turned out to be the very- medicine I needed. Why, in little or 110 time af- ' ter I commenced taking this wonderful niedicine I began to feel better and I just kept on getting better until I am now completely free from 1 those troubles and feel as well and strong as I ever did in my life. Yes, sir, I am a strong believer in Ferrolax and am more than glad to recommend it to the world." " 1 j - ?1 J U..

It will be remarked that Vliss Nellson will give a distant Russian groupe of songs after one of :he well known, Verdi airs. Her Chareston admirers will be particularly nterested in her rendering of these. Miss Nellson left Charleston more :han a year ago with the purpose of ietoting herself seriously to voice study.
