HO LITTLE OR BIG BOYS DONE UP
CELEBRATING FOURTH OF JULY
In the North and West, where
they have not learned better,
many little boys and some big
ones, too, had their eyes blown
i_ 1.1 i i _ a _ rv i
out, tneir nanus torn on ana
their bodies and faces otherwise
terribly lacerated Monday while
celebrating the glorious Fourth
with the festive cannon cracker
and other engines of destruction,
but there was nothing doing in
the fireworks line in Fort Mill or
elsewhere in York county, so the
doctors did not have to work
overtime mending bruises, burns
and various other ills which are
apt to result when gunpowder
comes in contact with human
flesh.
The only Fort Mill business institution
which observed the
fourth by suspending operations
for the entire day was the telephone
exchange. Fortunately,
? the telegraph operator of the
Western Union was on the job,
otherwise there would have been,
no communication with the outside
world for the greater part
of the day. Sunday hours were
observed at the postoffice. In
the afternoon a ball game was
played between Rock Hill and
Fort Mill colored teams, while
the grass continued to grow in
many cotton fields of the county
in which they could have found
remunerative employment. But
the Fourth has a peculiar
fascination for the average town
negro. The fact that he does
not know whether the observance
of the day is intended to celebrate
the victory of Xerxes over
Leonidas or to do honor to the
memory of the great Democrat
Thomas JefTerson makes no
ditFerence. The day is a
national holiday in the North
and that inspires the negro.
State Laws for Automobilists.
There are many people who
own automobiles who do not
know the State laws regulating
them while on the country roads.
It, seems to be the impression of
most people that they can
operate their cars as fast as
they want to outside of the city
limits, but this is a mistake.
Following are a few interesting
bits of law from the acts of the
General Assembly:
"No person shall operate a
motor vehicle on a public highway
at a rate of speed greater
than is reasonable and proper at
the time and place, having due
regard to the traffic and use. of
the highways and to conditions
or so as to endanger the life,
limb or property of any person,
or in any event at a greater rate
than 15 miles an hour."
"Upon approaching a'crossing,
bridge, steep descent or a curve
a person shall have their machine
under control and operate
it at a rate of speed not greater
than six miles an hour, and in no
wise greater than is reasonable
and proper having due regard to
conditions."
"The driver of a motor vehicle
shall give notice by blowing a
horn, bell or otherwise so as not
to frighten the animals and to
use precautions to insure the
safety of persons and property.
It is also necessary to bring the
car to a stop if it is seen that
the horses are frightened.
"It is necessary to stop the car
at a signal from one who is in
the highway and who is driving
a wild animal. The raising of a
hand may be considered a signal
to stop. It is also necessary to
remain stationary until such an
animal could be removed. It is
necessary for an automobilist to
give the right of way to the
driver of a horse or a mule and
he shall go to the right of the
rr>nfl
"Violators of these acts shall
be lined from $10 to $100 or imprisoned
not more than 30 days."

Pleasant Valley News.
The Pleasant Valley correspondent
of the Lancaster News
sends that paper the following
interesting news items:
The following college students
are at home for the holidays:
Misses Lula Therrell and Mildred
Hall of Winthrop, Cadets Eugene
Hall and Lester Therrell of
Clemson and T. E. Crane of
WolTord college. Prof. F. G.
Potts of the University of South
Carolina is also spending his
vacation with his parents, Hon.
and Mrs. 0. W. Potts.
Pleasant Valley's farmers' institute
will be held this year on
August 9th. The farmers' institute
and picnic has practically
become an annual event with us
?i rwJ if 1 o f aimi?m ??/! f/\ Ktr

our people as an occasion of
great profit and pleasure. This
year it will again be in charge of
Prof. I). N. Barrow of Clemson
college, with an able corps of
assistants.
A marriage of much interest to
this community took place in
Charlotte last Saturday afternoon.
Mr. Fred L. Bickett, son
of Mr. Lee Bickett of this place,
and Miss Florence Grier, of
Charlotte, were united in marriage
at the home of the bride's
mother. Mr. and Mrs. Bickett
have the best wishes of a host of
friends.
One-sixteenth Blood Makes Negro.
One-sixteenth of negro blood is quite
! enough to make a child a negro in the
eyes of the law. Even less than that
might be enough, but the proportion of
one-sixteenth is as little as the courts
have ever had an opportunity to decide.
That issue has just been decided by
Justice Dan Thew Wright, of the District
of Columbia supreme court, who
handed down an opinion to the effect
that Isabel I. Wall, the 7-year-old
daughter of Stephen Wall, proprietor
of a negro pool room, is a negro and
will not be allowed to enter the white
schools of the District of Columbia.
