Telephone, local and long distance. No. 112. Entered at the postofftce at Port Mill, S. C.. as mall matter of the second class. THURSDAY, JULY 14, 1921. The modification of the compulsory school attendance law. involving the repeal of the truunt officer section, at the session of the General Assembly last winder is a sample of the sort of progressive legislation that may be depended upon to keep South 0:;rolina near the foot in the lit eruev cominn oi American States. There was no reason for the change the General Assembly made in the law, and if the friends and proponents of the ^ change were not also the friends and proponents of ignorance an injustice is being done them by many people. After all, is there any reason why newspapers should be published on the Sabbath f If there is, it is about time for those in possession of the reason to take the public into their confidence. The Methodist central Sabbath committee, representing the conferences of 12 Southern States, is certain no such reason exists and has sent its chairman to Wash ingtou to urge upon Gongress tin wisdom of enacting a socalle.. "blue law" which would prohibi the printing of newspapers in America on the first day of the week. Not only is there much to be said against a great deal of the reading matter and many ot the ad vert isements aoDearinir in ? f o the Sunday editions of many, perhaps most, of the daily papers, but there also is involved in the publication of Sunday newspapers the important fact that they upset and destroy a considerable part of the orderly life of those immediately engaged in their production. In America, at least, there is an old-fashioned notion that every man is entitled to one day's rest in the week and that ?. that day should be the Sabbath. To force men to work on Sunday newspapers us late as 3 o'clock on Sunday morning, as is done in. practically every office from which a Sunday editiou is issued, is to deprive them of the pleasure and profit they would get from being able to take part in muuy things open to other men. It is almost out of the question, for instance, for the Sunday newspaper worker we have in mind to attend church services ou the Sabbath morning. He is too tireu, too much in need of physical rest, to get up after being in bed only three or four hours to go t-o church. Even if he forces himself to do that which he would find pleasure in doing were he physically able, his mind is in no condition to profit from the services. The average man in reading his Sunday newspaper never gives a thouirht to the fact that it represents many hours of hard, exacting night work of other men and that it is set before him at a cost in sacrifices he should not ask his fellow-man to -make. The Sunday newspapers have done much to destroy the Christian Sabbath ot* our forefathers. Hundreds of thousands of well-meaning, levelheaded, pious men now think it time to destroy the Sunday news papers. Miss Florence Boyd of Montevallo.

ThiR is inspired by an . incident that touched n* deeply a few days ago. An old and respected father stopped us on the street and told of a'distressing incident that had happened to his family. "1 want to ask you to keep it out of the paper." he said, and then the tears came and the pent-up an-" guish burst into sobs. It always hurts to see a child cry. We stoped on the way to the office this innmiiwr to u'inp tlip tours from the dirty face of a little fellow who Raid. "A big boy hit me;" but to see a man past 80 with tears rolling down his withered eheek. simply is too much. Indeed we'll keep it out of the paper, old friend. along with the many imprinted columns of sudness and Rorrow and sin that Wr have kept out of the paper forlo! heso many years. We sometimes think we-are a pretty poor sort of editor, after all. When we get a good story, front the city reporter's point of view, we always see the gray-haired mother or the nroitd sister who will he hurt hv the publication of. the sordid details and we kill it. No thought of the bleeding hearts or tormenting fears of anguished parents ever weighs with these ghouls of the pencil who pry into sacred tragedies anil haul fnmilv skeleton# out to be stared at by an unsympathetie public. Anything for a sensation. Anything to sell the papers. There is ho heart or soul in the city newspaper. but thank God the little old country weekly, the home town paper, still has u heart and it beats with sympathy for the friends and neighbors who watch for its coining each week.
