• Unanimous endorsement of a prop
osition to create a revolving loan fund
of several thousand dollars to assist
worthy youths in obtaining an educa
tion at the Presbyterian college was
given by the local Rotary club at its
regular weekly meeting in the Mary
Musgrove tea room last Friday.
This endorsement followed an an
nouncement by W. P. Jacobs, president
of the club, that he and other interest
ed had held a meeting for the purpose*
of deciding on the character of aid to
be extended in future. He explained
that formerly, local service clubs and
individuals have contributed to a fund
from which outright gifts were made
to students, but that it is now believed
such a plan tends to make the recipi
ents of the aid prone to undervalue
what they receive. If they are given
an opportunity to borrow money in
stead of having jf given to them, he
said, it is thought that they will make
better use of their time in college and
perhaps on graduation, make a strong
er effort to succeed in order to liqui
date their indebtedness.
Mr. Jacobs added that no special
club or organization is to be asked to
raise the revolving fund, but that Ro-
tarians, Kiwanians and members of
the Clinton chamber of commerce will
be requested to give their endorse-
with only water all around you. That’s
the trip from here to the next world.

sometimes, a toxic backache or head

are acclaiming the value of Doan’a

It is expected as a result of the pro
gress made so far, that endorsements
similar to that given by the Rotary
iclub will be had from the Kiwanis club
and from the chamber of commerce.
A new member was added to the Ro-
, tary club in the. person of Lonnie S.
{McMillian, freshman footbalLeoach at
the Presbyterian college, and member
of the firm of Galloway-McMillian,
booksellers. Mr. McMillian was intro
duced as a new member whose past
record in Clinton gives ample assur-
| ance that he will add strength to the =j=
club and give invaluable assistance in
the accomplishment of those purposes
for which the organization exists. In
responding to this, he declared it his
belief that the Rotary club has and is
wielding a powerful influence for good
in Clinton, and added that member
ship in it will mean a great deal to
him.
Visitors included Charles Fleming,
newly elected president of the Laurens

It has taken men all of the million
years they have lived on earth to
change from cavemen cannibals to mo

to get rid of earthly superstitions.
Many haven’t even done that yet.
Eventually we shall get rid of all

Cotton Growers’ Exchange Points Out
Use Would Be Help To All Par
ties. Many Given W’ork.
Columbia, Aug. 15.—The American
Cotton Growers’ Exchange, the over
head ^organization of all the coopera
tives and the Cotton Textile Institute,
Inc., join in urging the use of cotton
sacks for cement in statements which
have^ust been issued, in which they
point out that their use will greatly
promote the interest of the growers
and the manufacturers and their em
ployees.
The American Cotton Growers’ Ex
change in its statement declares that
about seventy million cotton cement
sacks were purchased last year, in the
making of which around 100,000 bales
of cotton were used. Growing and
marketing this cotton, it says, gives
employment to about 25,000 people. To
those that take the voyage of death nia ke the cotton cement sacks, the
come back from that trip to earth and
take up their work about where they
dropped it.
To them it seems reasonable to cred
it Eternal Justice with wise economy,
and it would seem useless waste of
time to send billions of imperfect crea
tures to work in another corner of the
universe when the work here isn’t fin
ished.
W’e are only twelve thousand years
from the late Stone age, not two hun
dred years from the stage coach and
sailboat.
A simple idea like putting the eye
of a needle in the point instead of the
thick end made the sewing machine
possible and freed millions of woman
from slavery. We should believe [that
other ideas will free us from the Slav
ery of superstition, which has driven
us hard through the centuries and
caused more brutality, fear, cruelty
and jnurder than all other causes to
gether.
Tennyson hoped there would be no
moaning at the bar when be put out to
sea, and wrote prettily about “Twi

Victorian, that last trip worried him.

journey, feel as sure about it as a mo

statement says, approximately seven
ty million yards of cloth were re
quired, and the spinning and weaving
of this cloth gave employment to 5,000 j
people. Making of -the cloth' into bags
employed about another .thousand peo
ple.
“Elimination of the use of these cot
ton bags would affect employment of
31,000 people, and the South would
lose the market for 100,000 bales of
cotton,” says the statement. “The
spindles and looms that would manu
facture this bag cloth would lie idle,
or would be employed to make other
goods, causing overproduction in some
lines and consequent loss to the manu
facturers and finally to the wage-
earners, with a lessening of the South
ern spinning power.” The exchange
declares that the South cannot pros
per if continued inroads are made on
the consumption of cottort.
The Cotton Textile Institute, in its
statement says, “that since the organ
ization of the institute, careful consid
eration has been given to the exten
sion of th'e use of cotton bags,” and
“that the highway commissioners of
Alabama, Florida, Georgia, Maryland
and Virginia have assured us that they
now do or will hereafter specify that
all cement shipped them be packed in
cotton bags.
“It is obvious,” says the institute’s
statement, “that the use of cotton
bags will greatly promote the inter
ests of the growers of cotton as well
as the interests of the cotton mills and
their Employees.”
