SEVERE COMPETITION^AHEAD
The opinion was recently expressed
by F. Edson White, president of Ar
mour and Co., that American industry
within the next 20 years will face the
severest competition is has ever
known. He felt Jhat at present world
commerce is repressed as the result
of war conditions. But there is a
kind of “leashed power” as he ex
pressed it, that is bound to break
forth and American industries will
feel it. * .
Those people over in Europe have
. been hardened and rendered almost de-
' sperate by war conditions. It is not
like America, where so many wage-
earners are rolling around in their
automobiles. Over there they are
having to struggle hard to get along.
Any experience of struggle makes
people very keen to make good. Our
old pioneers exemplified that truth.
They were up against hard conditions,
and it made them very determined
and resourceful. - They could beat the
world through their ingenuity and
earnestness. ' — v . ,.

realization of this aim.
HOSPITAL WORKERS
President Coolidge sent a greeting
the other day to the convention of the
American Hospital Association at
Louisville, Ky. He praised the work
of mercy done by these people, and
rightly so.
The country should have a very
warm feeling of gratitude for the
nurses and doctors and all who serve
in the hospitals. Most of us sooner
or jater, have to depend upon their
kindness and fidelity. They must
often perform this service under con
ditions of great fatigue, and it must
seem depressing to see so much sick
ness and suffering in the world.
Yet in spite of this drain upon their
sympathies and strength, they are a
very devoted and cheerful group of
people. Their hopefulness has helped
many suffering men and women to
pull themselves together and take that
confident*view that promotes health
and strength. ^
to them without great effort
The American people must get
ready to meet this competition. They
have always been bright and quick,
but sometimes bright and quick people
lack thoroughness. It has often been
said that In the race for foreign trade,
the European peoples would take more
pains and pay more attention to de
tail than our people will.
It is essential for America to keep
all the foreign trade it has, and to do
that we shall have to do thorough
and energetic work. The workers need
to cooperate by efficient production.
Our producers will have to hustle to
beat out many foreign competitors
who are sending goods over ( here and
underselling us in our own market. ...

OPEN YOUR HOMES
The local committee for the Boys
Y. M. C. A. Conference which opens
here tomorrow, is making an urgent
appeal in today’s paper to the people
of Clinton to open their homes for the
entertainment of the two hundred boys
who are to be the city’s guests for
their three days’ session. Thus far,
only a few have volunteered to provide
'entertainment for the visitors and the
work must be completed within the
next few hours. This fine gathering
of boys, coining from every part of the
Piedmont section, will be either favor-
-ably or unfavorably impressed with
Clinton and the reception they receive
here, their verdict resting entirely in
the hands of our people. If they are
cordially received and shown every
reasonable courtesy, they will depart
with the highest praise and apprecia
tion for our community and our peo
ple. Certainly we cannot afford to al
low them to leave with any other feel
ing.
For the committee in chargejof the
entertainment of the conference, The
Chronicle asks the assistance os every
citizen of the town. To the heads
k£T families, particularly, is the appeal
mode, in the hope that there will be
a generous opening of Clinton homes
for the entertainment of the boys, and
that every, possible courtesy be ex
tended them. . Real Clinton hospitality
has a fine opportunity to manifest it
self during the next few days.

The reason why property sells high
er in Clinton than in neighboring
cities, is not far to find. Clinton has
but little ^ebt; its taxes are veryldW;
its health is marvelous; it has a sple-
did educational system; it has first-
class society; it is a solid town and is
growing, growing, growing. Clinton,
dirt is going to be higher neift year
than it is now; and a wise man will
invest and that very quickly. If he
does not he will have to go farther
and fare worse.
With impressive ceremonies, and in
the presence of a large assemblage
of interested spectators, the First
Presbyterian church of Clinton was
solemnly dedicated to the service of
Almighty God, on last Sunday by the
Rev. Geo. H. Cornelson. A most ap
propriate program had been arranged
for the occasion, which was carried
out with perfectness on that ideal day
to the glory of the Risen Lord, to the
happiness of the pastor, Rev. Wm. P.
Jacobs, and the devout people of all
denominations in Clinton and the sur
rounding country.
^JVhat the Lord is going to do with
Thornwell Orphanage in the years to
come we do not know, but we feel
sure that He will do good things for
it. The orphanage is to go on and on
with its good for hundreds of. years.
It is our earnest prayer that thro the
centuries it may be preserved from
all error, that the Lord Jesus Christ
may be supreme in its counsels, that
education may be secondary to Godli
ness in the ambition of those who
diAct it, and yet that education may,
of all worldly plans, staqd ahead of
everything else.
It is now almost 30 years since this
town of Clinton voted out the liquor
shops, and never once has it gone back
on that record. The result is not evi
dent to the younger generation sim
ply because they know nothing of
what a liquor selling town is, 4>at the
older inhabitants who can remember
back to the times of the open bar
room could tell the difference by their
noses if they were not blind. t The
h of this young city,
the staKJfty of its population, the
solidity of character of its citizenship
ia noted. Its business prosperity and
its intellectual growth are all tnce-‘
able to temperance. Nor have any
people fell the benefit of it more* than
the cokxed population. Clinton is
noted for its fine colored citizenship.
There are many well-to-do people
among them; they own nice and com
fortable homes, and it is safe to say
that ha4 they been surrounded with
opportunities for drink, this would not
have been the case. Let Clinton stand
by her principles and prosperity is
assured.

We wish to call yoar attention to a blowing device recently in
vented for the purpose of drying garments of all kinds, especially
silk dresses. This prevents dresses from shrinking regardless of
any process may be subjected to.
After the garment is ^subjected to a cleaning process, every
thread of the garment is harmlessly blown out to its full capacity,
length and size, renewing it to its newness and fluffinesa., And
preventa the garment from being subjected to a rigid pressing
(which usually shows iron marks, etc.) and this is hereby elimi
nated.
This btowing machine has been installed for the benefit of oar
patrons, and is now in operation in our establishment for the pur
pose of overcoming past objectionable features.
We solicit your close inspection, and ask that you note the
difference In the appearance of your garments when they are
returned to -you from our establishment. We also wish to extend
you a cordial invitation to come in aM see this machine in opera
tion, and you will realize its great advantages.
