While it was known by a few that some such talk came up last year in the com mittee room when the appropriation was up for discussion, the agitation amounted to nothing and it was gen erally understood that the final chap ter to the movement had been written. The agitation now springs from Columbia, headed by Claude N. Sapp of that city, and chairman of the ways and means committee of the house, to undertake the training of the state’s defectives on a larger scale than heretofore, but to remove the institution, from here to Columbia, giving as his reasons that this school and the asylum could be served by the same staff, that the climate and topographical conditions there are bet ter than here, and that the/ central geographical location of Columbia makes the change desirable. An in vestigating committee, to inspect both of the cites under consideration, was subsequently appointed, and that committee is to meet here this morn- and contract entered into by this com munity and the state. * The school under question, is doing an excellent work for the unfortu nates who need its care. Rather than tear it- up and -drop it in a big city, thereby entailing loss and interest, the legislature should get out if the miserly, stingy attitude of support it has manifested towards it and give it a square deal. Make appropria tions for its development, arouse the people of the state to their obliga tion towards the mental diseasled, and adopt a broad, humanitarian spirit of support towards this institution. It would be a calamity to the school to move it jpst in this period of its development. Let the state develop the institution it has started here— and not make a football of it and eventually kill, it by such a policy. of Fuller-Simpson Furniture Co. and assumes all the liabilities of the form er firm.

Mr. Galloway always manifested an interest in the city and all its interests and ranks as one of the public-spirited, substantial citi zens of the community. He and his family will carry with them to their new home the warmest best wishes of a large circle of Clinton friends, those who know worth while qualities and who grieve when the community loses people of their type.

On the threshold of the New Year there is a renewed activi ty in real estate circles; there are a number of business changes all telling of progress; and there is an extensive building program already under way during 1924. These healthly signs tell a story of pro- gress and optimism and foretell a period of prosperity. Already there is approximately $300,000 in build ing construction under way and there are other improvements that are contemplated. All of this tells a story—one of progress.

We have seen no well founded rea son for the proposed removal and ahould such be done, it -will doubt less prove a calamity to the insti tution and in a large measure serve to weaken the spirit of interest that has been aroused in this community and in other sections of the state in fte work that is being done through this agency for the mental defectives of our state. There is no plausible reason why the school should be ihov- ed to Columbia any more so than that the School for the Deaf and Blind in Spartanburg, or Clemson, or some other state institution, should be moved there. The argument of climate carries little force, if any, the idea of one staff for the two in stitutions is impracticable. The school dropped in the suburbs of Co lumbia, would receive little interest, and the educational work that has been done setting forth the state’s j every effort they put forth in be- port to every interest in the com munity. It means furthermore, that with this growth and development, there comes added responsibility which we must meet. There must be a irroad, cooperative, booster community spirit prevailing among our people. We must look to the future and not be satisfied with pre sent conditions. Contentment breeds stagnation, and stagnation breeds death. Tt~ir«rsentay thit we con- stantly bear this great truth in mind in our city building. Clinton is a good town—a growing town with a bright- future, More and more it is becoming a young man’s town, young men like progress, they are ambitihus, and with their future lying ahead, they are willing to work. No community can boost of a finer bunch of young men than right here, and as they, take on more responsibilities in the business world, they are continually making good. They should be encouraged in obligations to these people would in a measure be destroyed. The state should take in consider ation its moral obligation to the peo ple of Clinton, one that should be binding and respected. When the aaatter of establishing the school came up a few years ago, largely through the efforts of the secretary of the Board of Charities and Correc tions at that time, Albert • Sidney Johnson, he suggested that the insti tution be located here and it was proposed to this community that il a farm and sufficient property was of fered the state, the school would be established here. A number of our citizens interested themselves and the result was the raising of more than $17,000 which was given the school to buy its present location on the speci fic understanding that it was to be used for the establishment here of the Training School for Feeble-Mind ed. Therefore, in accepting this offer, the 'state entered a moral obligation with this community which it has no right to break by coming forward with flimsy excuses to remove it to Columbia. Again it would be ill-advised, we might say foolish, to tear up this in stitution after having spent a large amount of money in improvements of the land and plant, which if remov-. al occurs, will prove a waste and practically total loss to the tax-pay- half of their own interests, as well as for the community. Clinton can become a better and bigger town if you will do your part as one of her citizens. It can become the very best town in the state—a goal well worth striving for. It should become more and more attractive to outsid ers each year. Prosperity is head ed Clintonward—better times are a- head. Town and community growth must be encouraged and supported. The fellow who wants to sit back, hold his property and do nothing, and become rich through the efforts of others, ought to be run over in the procession. Every citizen needs to do his or her part, and if on the thresh old of the new year we can only catch this vision—Clinton will soon become a garden spot in which to live-~a city bounded on all sides by prosperity—a city set on a hill whose light cannot be dimmed. The future is bright if we will but turn our faces to the sun and march ahead. SADLER-OWENS PHARMACY Telephone 400 For Sale—Two 1 year old Cocks, Parks pure strain.
