CLINTON, S. C.. THURSDAY, AUGUST 15, 1935 / YOUTH AKD AMBITION It is characteri«tic of youth that everything seems important to the young. That is natural, for everything is new to the young—nothing like it ever happened before. Wars and de pressions and'hard times and debt and grand ideas for making the world over make a strong impression on youth -because they are novel experiences. One has 'often heard the ancient proverb, “A man’s a fool ^till he’s forty,” but not necwsarily is this true. Youth never believes that ite elders know anything about ite problen^s. But after a man has reached middle age he begins to realize that all the things that he used to get so»excited about were an old story to his parents. They had been through the mill before and knew the answers. And the answers were nothing like what youth thought they were. It is, i>9rhap.s, a good thing that youth does not know the hard knocks that lie ahead — that most of its dreams will never come truCjijFor un less the young believed they qould ac complish miracles, they netrer would try. Ami ii is only by trying to do the impossible that humanity gets a little farther along with each new gener ation. vices, must. get. iwre dollars per unit for his product, o'r th^taxes never can be paid. •' The first symptom of an inflation ary tendency is always a gene^l movement, on the part of far-seeing men, to take their money out of hoard ing, and put it into commodities. The dollar in the bank has been steadily declining in value. Now it is earning only 2 or 2% per cent a year, instead of the four or five per cent that it used to be worth. TTie smart owner of such dollars looks about for a place to put them where they have a chance to earn bigger interest, instead of watching them shrink in idleness. With inflation, wages for all kinds of lal>or must go up. The last to bene fit will be, as usual, the “white collar” .salaried workers. The complete read justment of incomes to balance the increase of prices of everything men have to buy may take a long time, but it seems to us that we are heading for an inflationary rise which is inevi table. . - Social News PrsM Flat Reek > mrs. perry winkle entertained. .hn gHmiMw from £edsT lane With s pitcher show at the county seat last week (while she was TifsHing her) with “buck jbnes and 10 red skins.” they both enjoyed it a right smart and set thru it twice. * • the big rsin last friday hell up mri. tootsie smith’s vocal program at the high scholl audy-torium where she was going to' sing'4 or 5 songs for the benny-fit of thfr^unmeployables who are not'sttong enough to work on i govverment project and have benn throyved off the list. mrs. holsum moore had as her din ner guesses, two of her husband’^s old maid sisters on, monday whoch had come to town to have 3 teeths plugged, they stayed all night, miTch to her dis- serpointment, as sh^ h^d planned to vi.ssit the 6 and 10 that p. m. 01’R RESTLESS AGE ^ One cannot but help be impressed 'whh the .spirit of restlessness preva lent everywhere today in the ipodem jworld.

There is no tedious period of brcalring-in for 500 or 1000 miles. Yon can drive it up to 50 miles an hour the first day. And after the first hundred miles yon' can drive it as fast as you desire. That means greater motoring enjoyment for* every motorist. It is especially important to motorists who are thinking about a new car* fur a vacation tri^ — to physicians, salesmen uii'd all those who use a car for business. In stead of dragging along at slow speeds for clays^ you can tuukc good time from the start. The reason for this ia as important aa the result. The Ford V-B needa no breaking-in, because of unusual accuracy in the manufac ture of moving parts and the amoothness of bearing surfaces. Qearances are correct when yon buy the car. It is not necessary to depend dn a long wearing-in period to eliminate tight ness and insure smooth mnning. Loiter life, greater economy and better performance are bound to result from such precision methods. The Ford V-8 gives you fine-car construction, along with fine-car performance, comfort, safety and beauty. / Mis.se.s Maude Peirson, Inez Blake- human nature isWtencMl and bright-|,y^ Davidson and Liz- enci by change.s. lVi)le get somewhat R^^^h Owems are spending ten days in Rome Mountain, Tenh. mind.s are not nanx)w circle X large*!- notions, and limited entiiely by t of their own neighborh But the folks who tak\ all their spare time for flying aroundSol/er the country, an* not. gaining as mu^ men tal «k‘ve]opnu‘nt as those wh^are <liiietly sitting under the evening la reading the. story of world prdblen^ or progress, or acquiring happineasj by_.as.sociating with the family and children.

Many others look to infla tion as the only way out of our eco nomic trcubles. Some are sure that we are heading for inflation without knowing it. Others believe that the gevemment is deliberately moving to bring about inflation. And a good '~inany of the folk who taik about in flation don’t know what it means. As we understand it,.inflation is a condition under which prices of all commodities go up with more than normal rapidky. Put another way, in flation comes about when the value of > money > down. Inflation^ay occur from a variety of causes. Most folks think of the great inflation in Germany,' when the government deliberately issued so much paper money that It took a bil- lion'^mms or mote to buy a bOefsteak. The German paper marks had nothing I back of them but the w<»thless credit of * bankrupt nation. . ^ heading for that sort ^ of inflation in America, but nsany V \ edonomtete are predict^ng.another kind of inflation.
