But she was to all appearances not a disrepu^le . womin in the ^accepted seijse of the^ term. ' Somebody’s daughter, some body’s “little girl,^’ somebody’s sister, maybe somebody’.s young wife. So drugged in sense and .senses, as to be lost to all ordi nary decency. A hideous mockery of all that one looks for in.young •womanhood.

Those who make a .study of economic causes say that at the bottom of this (boom lie the same elements that started the big rise in stock prices in 1927. Those are inflated bank credits, and theThflux of European gold seek ing investment. Now, as in 1927, America appears to the rest of the world as the safest place to invest money with a_ chance of making a profit. Business is re- porttd from over the country as on the up.swing, with confidence in the future stronger than it has been in l ast years. The result is more buyers for stocks in sound enterprises. Thi.' boom, like all it piXHlecessors, will collapse some day. It may hap pen in.-^tantly or it may be prolonged. Nobody can guess when the turn will conic.

We are giving it publica tion and every newspaper in. South Carolina should see to, it that it ap- liears in their columns: . We, saw'one of the saddest sights oh God'.s green earth at the football game the other day. ^o, it was not the crippled lad,' s<r helpless, with limbs <bent and twisted, that friends had to lift him to the stands. No, his happy smile and clear eyes forbade weeping there. * Nor was it the old gentleman, deaf, and with legs bowed with weakness, who was carefully led ^ to his waiting car. • Nor yet the big guard who, crumpled on the field with an in- - jured ankle, nnd whose face, as his foot was bared and the injury treated, was contorted with pain. Not this, for here was but a hurt to the flesh; no bruising of the spirit, and he was soon in tjie running again. Not even the pathetic little lads with tattered sweaters, with pale dirty faces and chill bare feet, ' overflow from slum neighbor hoods, that somehow manage to ip for almost every game; ,and whose cheerful poverty and pitiful neglect do wring the heprt, can take rank with the really de pressing spectacle that hundreds, perhaps thousands, of persons observed. ^ MWt PERneCtEO im>RAULlC SRAXEf Make this Christmas a memorable one for ail the family!
