' Miss Louise Geddlngs of Columbia, y, ? and Miss Fiorencj Lawrenbe of Florence, all Winthrop students, were week-end guests of Mrs. F. 15. Ardrey. A change of interest to the public last 8undny went Into effect In the |lfe ' '' schedule of northbound Southern rall. way passenger train No. 3d. Under I . the old schedule No. 36 was due in ft _r Fort Mill at 8:39 a. m. It Is now due * J here at (:33 a. m.. 16 minutes earlier I- thnn formerly.} if. It. Halle yestordhy went to York to take the oath of office before the clerk of court for York county as magistrate of l^ort Mill district as the successor of 15. S. Parks, who had . held the office for the Inst four years. Before leaving' for York Mr. Halle announced that he would appoint J. f * H. Patterson as his constable. Mr. Paterson will succeed J. ,F. Lee. ? ltoller Gordon, proprietor ef a lunch stand near the Southern railway depot, was fined $76 by Recorder Ott 1 in police court Tuesday morning after , he had been convicted by a Jury of disorderly conduct, drunkenness and ?j disturbing the peace. Following the 1 announcement nf said to the recorder that ho Intended to appenl the cases aRalnst him on the Rjsound that he dldmot Ret Justice. B. Patterson is this week movingf ffem Grnttan to Oarhnrtt to take charae of the InrRe farmlnR interests of Hamilton Cnrhartt ' at tho latter plnce. The farm Is considered one of the' hest as it is one of the larRest in York county. For some time Mr. Patterson had been superintendent of tho Cnrhartt farm at Grnttan. on the Fort Mill side of the Catawba river. This farm is smaller than the one at Cnrhartt nnd the transfer is therefore In tho nature of a promotion for Mr. Patterson. By the appointment of J. J. Bnllos as one of the commissioners of Fort Mill township under the new York county road law n vacancy Is created on the board of trustees of the Fort Mill Rraded school." It is presumed that an election soon will he ordered to elect a successor to Mr. Balles on the school hnnril In the law. although the opinion Is hold by many thnt the school hoard. com. posed of nlno members. Is too large and that more efficient work could ho done If the number were out down. Contrary to the Impreslon trained by many In Fort Mill, operation of the Carhartt mill at Carhartt has not yet been resumed following the settlement recently <*T the differences between the owner, Hamilton Carhartt, and the textile union. The mill has been closed for several months, duo to the strike of the operatives last April, and the statement Is now made that because of the necessity of a general overhauling of the mnchlncry and other preliminary work in the dye house, several days will yet elapse before the spinning and weave rooms are again in operation. A contract involving an expenditure of $16,000 was awarded Friday evening by the building committee of v At. John's Methodist church to the * Fort Mill Lumber company for remodeling and enlarging the church edifice accordjng to plans adopted by the committee some time ago. The work on the building is to bo begun as soon as the weathor will permit and it is hoped to have it completed by August 1, next. The lowest bid received for the work a few months ago was $21,000. An additional expenditure of $2,000 is to bo made on the steam heating plant to be installed in the church. "If the people of Fort Mill want *o put this town on the1 map of the United States good and strong they arc in position to do so by reviving seriously the proposition advanced some years ago for the township to secede from South Carolina and .loin North Corollnn," Tuesday said a Port Mill citizen to The Times. "If the proposition were advanced in earnest Fort Mill would soon find herself occupying first page space in all the daily papers of the country, as It would he necessary, to determine the issue, to hold Statewide elections in both South Carolina nnd North Carolina and if the result were favorable for the Congress of the United Stntes to finally pas? an act ugreeing to tho secession. For my part," continued the citizen, "I'm not saying whether I think the proposition a wise one. but If Jt should come to an election during Yny-lifetime I'll dig up my registration certificate and be at the ?poils when the voting time comes."

Unless the Cennml Aswmbly appropriates before . the end', of the present session, about three weeks away, approximately 9170,000 to care for the deflcletooy due numerous school districts throughout the State as a result of the oust of 1*10 guaranteeing an Increase for public school teachers, the present session of the Fort Mill graded school probably will come to a close -during the month of April, yesterday said one of the trustees of the seh ool. The 1910 act provided a substantial Increase foi the public school teachers whpse districts took steps to meet the requirements of the net. and the Fort Mill school district came within the provisions of the act. The Increased salaries for the Fort Mill teachers did not tako effect uptll the beginning of the present session the first of laBt Septomber. The amount the General Assembly last year agreed to appropriate for the teachers' but failed through inadvertence to mako was considered a sufficient guarantee that the State's Part of the money would be forthcoming at the present session of the General Assembly to warrant the trustees of many school districts In borrowing the money they expected to get from the State to repay the loans It will be necessary for them to make. The trustees of the Fort Mill graded school would have to borrow a conslderble sum to run the school during April and May and had expected to pledge In payment of the loan the amount It was thought the State would furnish under the salary act. If tho State falls to provide the money to cover the loan It Is said that the only alternative for the trustees Is for the school- to close for about two months of the session. An Interesting story comes from Columbia In connection with the hesitancy of the Goneral Assembly to make the deficiency appropriation for the teachers. The application of the. State superintendent, of education for this purpose is about $170,000, and thereto hangs the tale. The net obligating the State to pay part of. the teachers' salaries became effective when it was approved by the governor, early in March of last year. Members of the General Assembly who assisted in passing the act say that it was the Intention of the Genoral Assembly to have (the new schedule of teacher salaries begin with the opening of the 1920-21 session of the schools. The State superintendent of education, however, held that the law became effective with the opening of the schools In the fall of 1919, about six months before^he law was passed. and he advised the trustees of numerous school districts throughout the State to begin the payment of the increased teacher salaries from that date. Twenty-odA thousand dollars. It is said, has been paid teachers as a result of the retroactive construction placed upon the law by the State superintendent. The Gen oral Assembly is said to object especially to providing money with which to pay this sum and the State superintendent has been accused of acting in a high-handed manner. It is pointed out that he should have requested the attorney general to construe' the law for him instead of undertaking to do It himself. Complaint also is made in the General Assembly that at the 1920 session the State superintendent applied for only $60,000 to guarantee the State's part of the Increase to be paid to the* teachers and that now he comes in with a bill for this purpose amounting to $170,000. SOLDIERS STILL IIEL1) BY TOWN. Camp Jackson Authorities Fall to Claim Alleged Deserters. The town of Fort Mill is having a hard time to rid itself of two young white men, J. R. Orr and S. Howard Meyers, who were arrested by Police Officer V. D. Potts on Wednesday. January 19, and who are said to have since ndmitted that they had run away from the army at Camp Jackson. Following the arrest of the men a telegram was sent to the commander of Camp Jackson informing him that the men were being held in Fort Mill and usking for instructions. A reply was received at once saying that the men were wanted at Camp Jackson and that a guard would be sent to Fort Mill for them. Several days elapsed and the guard failed to arrive. Then a second message was sent to the camp commander which brought a reply similar to the one received from the first message. Still no gifard came to take the men back to Columbia. Despairing of the camp commander taking action. Mayor F. E. Ardrey appealed to Congressman Stevenson to take the matter up with the war department, and on January 27 Mr. Stevenson wired Mayor Ardrey that the adjutant general was instructing the commantler of Camp Jackson to take the men off the town's hands at once; hut up to Monday of this week nothing further had heon heard from the Camp Jackson commander and on. that day a wire was sent him by ;the mayor raying that the men would bo released If they were not claimed by the army authorities at once. This message brought the reply that a guard was on the way from Camp Jackson. Yesterday the guard had not arrived. Meanwhile the town Is being put to considerable inconvenience and expense ,ln caring for the men. Snow to a depth of ubotu four inches fell In York county on Wednesday and Thursday of last week.
