' 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

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."

SCHOOL TEttM UNCERTAIN.
~ ?
Session In Fort Sifll; Dependent Upon
' Action of Gent ml AoMonMar.'
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.
