JUNE 27, 1907. ~'' Why Call it Jealousy. says the Kock Hill Herald of Friday: "A. large crowd of 'rooters' from'Eort Mill came clown Thursday to witness the game of ball. We were sorry to see them go back'on our little team, but most of them surely did. Jealousy is &, horrid thing anyway." "Jealousy!" What makes you think so? What has Rock Hill that Fort Mill i3 or could be jeal bus of? It is certainly not her baseball record. Let's figure a little and see. Rock Hill and Fort Mill has played two games of ball this season, the first game going to Fort Mill by a score of 12 to 3, and the second to Rock Hill by 4 to 1. Is there anything about this to arouse jealousy on the part of Fort Mill* We shall not argue the game played here Saturday between a crowd from Itock Hill and Fort Mill's second team, in which the score was 29 to 13 in favor of the latter team. *'Jealousy!" During the past week Fort Mill and Concord had thr^e games?shut-out games? the first and last going to Fort Mill by a score to 2 to 0 in each, poncord won the second game by a score of 1 to 0. Pretty good "ball, don't you think? Thursday and Friday Concord lost to Rock Hill two straights, scores 2 to 1 and 10 to 4. Here we find the Rock Hill team allowing Concord 5 runs in two games, while in the three games here they only! made the circuit once." We leave1 it to the sporting editor of the Herald or any impartial paper as to which played the best ball, Rock Hill or Fort Mill. YVhy, bless you brother, the losing team in vour city made as many runs in two games as both made here in the three games. No, we are not jealous of Rock Hill, for; we find nothing to be jealous for. | The fact stands out bold that our j team is a little higher in the class than that of Rock Hill, but if, there is not other way of con-' vincing you of the fact, just: send the boys over mo3t any old day and we'll get together our t>unch of farmers, carpenters, I etc., and take the kinks out of your "little" college team. - "Jealousv!" Ain't you shame! ! The woman who buys her goods at the nearest corner: store is just as well off, and just as happy in life, as the friend that is ripping, tearing and j snorting irom one bargain counter to another in the department store We hope that council will soon see its way clear to extend th3 'cement paving on up the south side of Main street. The property owners would doubtless help bear the expense of paving, which, besides improving the appearance of the street, would greatly enhance the property along which it passed. The world is full of women .vho can amuse the ordinary man. They can sing, dance or recite to him; can paint, write or decorate in a manner most pleasing, but, ^the poor man often goes begging for a woman who can sew on buttons or mend his clothes; who can cook his food with economy and flavor it to his taste. I It is to be hoped that the county officials have not forgotten the promised visit of the chaingang to this township this summer. According to promise, if we remember right, the gang was to corne to Fort Mill this month, but up to this time it has not shown up. Several years iiave passed since the chaingang did any work in this township, and, aside from the need of the! road work, it is but justice that. Fort Mill be given the use of the j gang for several months this summer. Tn order that a town or city may make a substantial anil. steady growth it must have factories so as to induce people to make their home there. People \yill flock where there is employment. City or public work y/ill give employment to but few inen, and that only a portion of ! the year. The question of se- j curing factories and other sources of employment must be J agitated and inducements held out to either the citizens or outsiders to invest, or at least in-1 VAcfirraf/s tKa nnooiKilitiAo 1 V .juiguw miv |/irooiuniiu:o \Ji 3Ut" cussfully. operating plants here. \s a starter, we would suggest *,he feasibility of some one put- | ting in a pickle and canning factory. We feel sure that our j farmers would see the benefits i such an institution would be to j them as well as to the town. There are too many boys and girls in the country and city, j more i; the latter than in the tornier. ho arc prone to look There are thousands of them on the threshold of maturity who retain the same views and habits whice found encouragement in their earlier years. What becomes of this class of people? Some of them awaken and after a desperate struggle overcome the habit and learn to work, to save, and to prepare for the inevitable rainy day. Many of them however, drift and drift until they become acceptable recruits in the hobo army. Then they speedily reach the conclusion that things are mighty unequal in this world; that the advantages are all with the rich, and that a poor man has no show. Some of our farmers wonder ; whv enne > +/-v I ?? - -%T viivo .yviiu V/ U UV.OI X. V/ IV ! quit the farm, preferring town ] or city life." The cause is with the farmer himself. With the boy on the farm it is perpetual toil in good weather, all through the busy reason. The time when the farmer has leisure is at the very time when they cannot get away from home on account of ! their isolation and the bad roads. The boy hungers for company | and his heart revolts against | this unendurable loneliness and I to free himself from it, walks 1 miles through the mud to spend an hour at the country store. We are glad to note, however, that in some sections of the country the young people of both sexes have broken through these barriers and organized business clubs and little societies of one sort or another. This should be encouraged as it will prove a great tonic to keep young people on the farm and make life to them worth the living. One hour a day withdrawn from frivolous pursuits, and profitably employed, would enable any man of ordinary capacity to master a complete science. One hour a day would make an ignorant man a well informed man in ten yeras. One hour a day would earn enough to pay for two daily and two weekly papers, two leading magazines and a dozen good books. In an hour a day a boy or girl could read twenty pages thoughtfully? over seven thousand pages or eighteen large volumes in a year. An hour a day might make all the difference between bare existence and useful, happy living. An hour a day might makenay' has made an unknown man a famous one, a useless one a benefactor to his race. Consi ler, then, the mighty possibilities of two, four, yes, six hou?*s a day that are, on the average, thrown away by some of our young men and women in their desire for fun and diversion." Notice Served cn Regiments. According to Ad.it. Gen. Boyd this is one of the most important u:_i. ^ ~ ^taia in me History 01 ine soutn Carolina militia and unless the strength required by law, which is 75 per cent., is shown by each company at the encampment, said company will be mustered out of service. Following his recent interview in The State along these lines the adjutant general yesterday issued a letter to each of the colonels, calling attention to this and it may result in a material decrease in the number of companies. Gen. Boyd calls particular attention to the requirements of the Dick militia bill and that this is the last year for the companies to make ready to come up to the requirements. Should they fail this year it will mean that thev can no longer maintain an organized militia in this Stale .and the government appropriation will be diverted to some of the other States. The letter says: "Sir: This year is one of the most critical periods in the history of the South Carolina military, especially under the Dick bill, and it is necessary that we make the best* possible showing at the national encampment this year. You will therefore inform the different company commanders of ytnir regiment that the company falling below 75 per cent of its enlisted strength will be mustered out and that no officer, fietd or staff, will be ex~ ?j * i.u>icu iiuiii ituueiiuancc irom these encampmets cxcei)t for sucli cause as would he received by the war department as a plausible excuse. "Very respectfully, "J. C. Boyd, "Adj. and In. Gen." So far the outlook for the Second regiment is very bright and a full quota is expected at Jamestown on South Carolina dav. Gen. Boyd said yesterday that collectively the regiments were in excellent shape, but there were several companies probably doomed to retirement. He did not like to do this, but it was the law and had to be carried out. Many of these questions he had talked over with Gov. Ansel and i both agreed that all companies i must be placed on notice that the situation was a serious one and the utmost care should be taken to keep up active interest hi each infantry regiment ?The State. | sfc ".v ' ; j mm ? York County News \ Rock Hill Herald. ?Mr. H. H. Goodall, of Cincinnati, Ohio, has purchased an interest in the Rock Hill Buggy Company and will take charge of the business at once as general manager. Mr. Goodall arrived in Rock Hill this week and will move his family here as soon as i lie can secure a suitable house. ?The Woodmen of the World | of Yorkville are preparing for a j big celebration at that place on J the fourth of July. The programme for the occasion will include a street parade, in which all the Woodmen camps in the county are invited to take part, each camp carrying a float. The business men of Yorkville willal: so join in the parade with floats. There will also be a big tournament and the successful Knight j will have the honor of crowning the Queen of the occasion and I the three maids of honor will be ' crowned by the next three most ! successful Knights. Arrange1 ments are also being made for a ; big game of ball. The affair is ' being thoroughly advertised over ! the county and it promises to be 1 a great success. Quite a large j crowd is expected. ?A Gaffney correspondent, writing to The Charlotte ObserI VCr. S1VS! It. is pnrrontlu ported that Col. T. B. Butler will be a candidate for Congress to succeed Congressman Finlev. When asked about the rumor, Col. Butler did not deny that he would be a candidate. - The home of Mr. aud Mrs. John Carter, in the Leslie neighborhood, was struck by lightning during the electrical storm Wednesday afternoon and fire, which started from the bolt, destroyed the home and almost the entire contents. ?Sam Anderson, the seventeen-year-old son of Mr. and Mrs. Geo. B. Anderson, was struck and instantly killed by lightning Wednesday afternoon about 5 o'clock. He was on the second story of a residence being erected for his father on Academy street and was assisting the workmen on the building.

Senator Tillman, of South Carolina, has what he claims to l>e a sure cure for colds, which is I thus given: Get plenty of hot water, just as hot as you can stand it, and soak your feet.

And if The Ob- ! server might be permitted to add a few lines it would be to say that if you go to sleep with your! feet blistered, with all that hot water in you, and loaded to the back teeth, you will throw the j cover off in fifteen minutes, sleep all night without any bed clothes j on you, and wake next morning not ablei to speak ahove a whis- : per and 'with a head on you that / spm i we: r l"Nothing Si i | Like Success 5 | ? 1 except saving the resul IX labor or business.
