What do you think of that
roller mill proposition that The
Times spoke of last week? If
you think it isn't needed, please
communicate with the editor; if
you think it is needed, talk it
abroad and let's have the mill in
time for the next wheat crop.

in the fact that the death rate
from consumption in this country
is steadily decreasing. In
1880 the death rate from this
disease was 320 per one hundred
thousand of population, hut
in 1913 it was reduced to 146.6
per hundred thousand.
The Abbeville Press and Ban
ner, Wm. P. Green, editor, is
one of the South Carolina weeklies
that has recently made improvements
which are little
short of wonderful. The paper
is neatly printed, brimming: full
of good editorial and news matter
and is a great credit to the
publisher.
The Rock Hill Record says that
the reason Yorkville has the new
court house is because the Rock
Hill people stirred the Yorkville
people up from their slumbers.
We had always had a feint suspicion
that the county seat
people by some hook or crook
administered a dope to the Rock
Hill voters which put them
soundly asleep on election day.
else the new court house would
now be located in the "Good
Town."
Ex-Governor Blease is quoted
ns having said among other
things in an address at Filbert
Thursday that "the administration
at Washington is not Democratic.
It is not a gove rnment
of the people, and Wilson is n<
friend of the South." It is well
known that the ex-governor is
not an admirer of the president
and one would not, therefore,
expect Mr. Blease to say things
complimentary of Mr. Wi'son.
However, in view of the pr< sident's
actions with regard to
this government's attitude toward
the warring nations, there
are a great many people in (he
South who aKree with the exgovernor's
statement at Filbert.
Someone has said that this
country should "give Germany
the boot." To be sure this
country could do it, and not unlikely
it may have to, but it
would mean great cost of money
and precious human life. The
whole matter is so complex that
the greatest wisdom is needed in
directing the path this nation!
has to travel. It ought to make!
many people re-a^jce, as they do
not at present, that President!
Wilson and the government have
no holiday time of it, that I
patience should he exercised and
the sympathy and support of all
be accorded in this hour when
the controversy with European
powers on the one hand, and the
anarchy in Mexico on the other
hand present a problem this
nation has never before been
called to face.

All energetic, conscientious, c
and right-thinking people can tj
not fail to see the inevitable and 1
insurmountable necessity of edu- c
eating the coming generation
more thoroughly and of giving
them a learning and training
that will excel even that of our |
best scholars of today. As we
advance in civilization and as we
are steadily marching to greater
re9po*nsibility,'if is expedient for
us to prepare our children to
take up the work where we leave j
off and carry it gloriously and
skillfully onward.
We should bear in mind that,
as Woodrow Wilson's duties
and responsibilities are tenfold
mierhtier and heavier than
Thomas Jefferson's ever had 1
time to be, so will it be with the *
next generation. It takes well
iraim. "nds to solve the mighty *
problems that are continually *
arising in State and nation, and
to carry the great responsilility
of steering this United States of (
America thru the great whirling {
mass of worldly sinfulness and to
keep her on solid ground.
When it comes to iliiterac ,
South Carolina is at the bottom !
f the ladder, but we feel safj in
raying that she will not remain
there much longer. The last
Assembly made a step in the
right direction in passing the
local compulsory bill. But this
act was not broad enough. It
would have gone a long ways
further toward eliminating iHit-"
eracy in the grand old Palmetto
State had it been a statewide law.
And, again, we fail to see why
our lawmakers have not seen to
it that the Bible be introduced
into our st h >ols as a required
study. The man of the future
will be determined by the school
of today, and of what use is
knowledge unless it be backed
up by character?
We rejoice that we perhaps
have the greatest man tl e
United States has ever produced
it the helm of this old Ship of
j State, but let us not forget that
j we will no doubt need a greater
man 50 years hence, and that
the only way to produce such
men is to improve our educationil
facilities.

Notable Improvement at Station.
Foreman E. L. Hughes of the
Fort Mill section of the Southern
Railway is receiving deserved
praise nowadays upon
the improved appearance of the
grounds around the local passenger
station. Mr. Hughes is a
great lover of shade trees, shrubbery
and flowers and these form
an important part in the said
improvements. Speaking of his
work along this line the Southern
Railway Bnlletin of recent
issue has this to say:
"Section Foreman E. L. !
Hughes of Fort Mill is responsi- j
ble for many attractive im-)
provements on the grounds
surrounding the station building
on his section. The latest of
these is a triangular flower garben
on the southwest side of the
track at Fort Miil. This garden
is surrounded by a hedge of
privet. In the centre of the
largest flower bed he has installed
a fountain to supply
moisture at any time it is needed. 1
Mr. Hughes began work with
the company in April, 1895, as a
laborer and in September of the
same year was promoted to j
[section foreman." 1;
