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.

.orraw. raised a family and toiled
rdl along the way, he should
knotf a few years of peace an 1
love and tender care before he
lays ilown the burden. 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.
