Mclver, of the Fourth Judicial Circuit, presiding at the summer term of court. En. forcement of the school laws of the state so as to give every boy and girl a chance for at least a common school education was also urged by the jurist. juage Jiciver siititrvi mui n ?as not necessarv for him to outline to the members of the grand jurv their duties, for these had been presented to them before and each was familiar with the duties and resposibilities at nrhei to the position He slated that the custom of charging the grand Jury at each term oF court dates from the time when a new grand jury was empanelled at each term of court and the charge was, therefore, to acquaint the members with their duties. The grand jury is one of the oldest systems of government we have, said the judjge. It stands between the people on the one hand and the office holders on the other. It is a representative body of the county. He stat ed that the jurors represent for 1921 the county against those who attempt to violate the laws of the state. While court is not in session it is the duty of the grand jury to see that the law is enforced in the various sections of the county. The members of the jury must nee that the office holders are doing their duty, that the laws are being carried out, that the county is get * ? ? ' '** r*.

You are required to report the failure of the officers to perform their duties. The county will not have the best government unless you do your duty." In pleading for enforcement of school'laws the Cheraw judge said. "You realize that the county and state have gone into the education of the boys and girls. They do this not ao much as charity, but for the purpose of securing a better citizenship, for the education and enlightenment of its future citizens. So the state has seen it best to secure as good citizen, ship as possible by educating all the children in order that every boy and girl may go out in life equipped with at least a public school education. It has appropriated a great deal of mon.l ey for the schools. Your duty is to; see that this is" properly spent." The best possible care of the poor, i of the chaingang convicts, of others! who need the care of the county, was urged by Judge Mclver. Punishment is never destined to make somebody suffer, but to uplift and make better men and women of the prisoners, said the judge. Cbaingangs should be conducted humanely and justly, he stated. . Congratulating the county on the nroarresa of her schools. Judee Mclver' took occasion to urge upon the grand Jury the importance of its duty of visiting at least once a year every public school in the county. To see that law and order prevails throughout the county during the year i9 a paramount duty of the jurors, said Judge Mclver.

Prohibition has not reduced crime as much as some ardent prohibitionist expected, Judge Mclver stated. It will not decrease crime until grand jurors everywhere take it upon them, selves to enforce the law as best they can. . !

Columbia, S. C., June 21st., 1921 Hon. J. W. Tolbert, St. James Hotel Washington, I). C. Dear Sir: Yours of May 16th, asking for certain information received 1 will answer you frankly. As to C. C. Campbell, of Columbia S. C? the common remark I hear around here, and have heard parties make from other parts of the state is: ''Some people in South Carolina may want to go into a new party but they are not going in as followers of Campbell, who is a Yankee; for you remember that it was the Northern renegades- and scalawags who took the nigger and used him that gave us all of our troubles from 1865 to 1876." 'Therefore, you will see that his leadership will not go far in South Carolina. As to J."!*. McLaurin, I presume it is unnecessary for me to make any remarks. His record in the senate of the United States, the Archibold letters. his attempted deal of 1912, his complete breakdown as a candidate for governor in this state recently, and his general political record, are well known to the people in Washington as they are to the people of South Carolina. It would be absolutely impossible for him to build up any following in this state of any considerable proportions. ! If the patronage in this state should be given to Campbell or McLaurin, or I Campbell and McLaurin, they could not build up a corporal's guard that iwould go outside of the Democratic primaries, where they .would he deprived of voting for their county officers as well as their United States senators and congressman and their state officers, to follow those people into the republican party. Conse. quently as far as Ihave been able to learn, very little credence is given to the Campbell-McLaurin talk; in fact, it is looked upon as a joke by those w'ho have any influence and who know that these men cannot break into the democratic ranks. I certainly can state that you have ibeen a life long republican; that you have gone through strenuous times and that your life has often been at stake, und that through it all you have been tride and true; and If, after all these years of service and devotion to your party, the republicans would now kick you out, 1 can hardly think that they would have much of an opportunity to get anyone here to follow them because the people here would realize that no matter how devoted the service thcv might render, their laborf would not be appreciated. I can hardly see how, after a thorough investigation, it could be possible for you to be turned down as the leader of th< republican party in this state, and a? for the forming of a new party with Campbell or McLaurin, or both, such t is myth, a farce and plain damned foolishness. i You are at liberty to read this letter to whom, you please, or publish it if you wish, as 1 presume everybody knows that I speak what I think regardless of consequences. 1 have wrotten you freely as you requested me 10 do.

Saul knew fall well that unless the movement set on foot by Jesus was stopped It would supersede Judaism, but he was entirely Ignorant of the *enlus of Christianity. Christianity thrives on persecution. Prosperity may ruin the church, but persecution never. ' The noble display of faith by Stephen In sealing his testimony with his blood did not soften Saul's spirit, hut rather Intensified his hatred far Jesus and His disciples. It made blm more determined than ever to Stamp out this Nazarene heresy. The intensity of bis madness and the extent of Its operations are best set forth In his own words (see Acts 22: 4 and Acts 28:10-12). He obtained authority from the chief priests to carry on this murderous wotit. ^ . v. II. Saul Kicking Againet the Prlcke (vv.3-y). The figure here is that of the eastern ox-driver following the ox with a sharp Iron fixed to the end j of a pole. The animal Is prodded on i with this Instrument and if It is refractory It kicks against this sharp iron and injures Itself. This Is a picture of Saul as he was madly fightng against Jesus. 1. A light from heaven (vv. 3, 4a). The time had come for the Lord o Interfere. Saul Is stricken with 'dlndness and falls te the earth. This physical demonstration accentuated he workings of his conscience which loubtless were going on, quickened ?y the Holy Spirit as He used Stephen's testimony. 2. A voice from heaven (vr. 4b. 3). This was the Lord's voice calling Saul ' y name and asking, "Why persecutest hou me?'r This moved Saul to Inlulre, "Who art thou, Lord?" The inswer came, "I am Jesus whom thou lersecutest," as If to say persecution >f the church Is persecution of Jesus. 3. "What wilt thou have me to do?" (v. 6)). The dictator Is now willing to e dictated to. The Lord told him to :o Into the city where Information vould be given him as to what be nust do. 4. Saul entering Damascus (vv. 7-9). The haughty persecutor goes quite humbly Into Damascus led by his C/vt. t)m anafu of three auciiuamoi * vi tuv 0|/MW ?. - days he remained In blindness and fasting. What went on In his soul In those days no mortal can knew, but we may be assured that he, like the Lord In the wilderness, was too deep In meditation and prayer to desire food. Doubtless In this time be got hold of the truths which he later proclaimed to the world; for bla conversion was the basal fact of hla theology. III. Ananlaa Sent to Saul (vv. 1019a). Here appears upon the scene a hitherto unknown disciple. 1. Ananias' vision (vv. 10-12). In this vision the Lord appeared and Instructed him to go to Saul. He gave him the name of the street and Saul's host, and Informed blm that Saul was now a praying man and that he had prepared Saul by the vision for the coming of Ananias. 2. Ananias' fear and hesitancy (w. 13-16). He knew of Saul's mission and the authority by which he came. The f Kim fn crn aCC11 Hfl7 bUlU CU?.VUin?cu uiui iv him that Saul Is no longer an enemy, but a chosen vessel to bear Bis nam* before the Gentiles, kings, and tha children of Israel. 3. Ananias' obedience (v. 17). Hia fears being removed, Ananias went to the house where Saul was staying, put his hands on him and affection ately addressed him as "brother." The savage persecutor Is now a brother In Christ. He Informed Saul that the Lord had sent him with a twofold mission: (1) "That thou mjgtilpst receive thy sight;" (2) "Be filled with the Holy Spirit." He received sight forthwith. It Is not said as to whether he received the Holy Qhost then, but his life's work proves that he did. 1. Saul baptized (vv. IS, 10a). After Saul received his sight Ananias baptized him. A FORD PLANT GUILDS 108,962 IN JU! Demand Exceeds Output" as Fo Breaks All Previous Records. During the .month of Jane, the Fo Motor Company, thru its Detroit Fa tories and 22 Assemblv plants throng out the country reached the prodi tlon of 108,962 Ford cars and true! setting up a new high record for o month. Production of Ford oars and true has been steadily increasing sin early spring, and shows substantl gains over the same period last yet The second quarter of 1921, viz., Apr May and June shows an output of 30 796 Ford cars and trucks against 22! 878 for the same months of last yea or a ndl increase of 80,918. Despite the fact, however, that tl Ford Plant3 have been running at mi imura capacity thed emand for Fji cars and trucks is not being met, ar at the present time, many thousar unfilled orders have been piled w ahead so that Ford sales are still 1 mited by manufacturing facilities rati er than marketing possibilities. Par lcularly is this true with respect 1 enclosed cars, for which the deman has been unusually heavy. One reason cited by the Ford off cials for the unprecedented deman for Ford cars Is the present tendenc toward economy. Many of thos whose names have been added' to tfc long list of buyers might well hav afforded larger and more costly car than the Ford, but it is the belief thj most propective motor car buyers ar investigating all of the costs incidei to .motoring much more carefully tha at any period during the past fiv years. The estimated output of the For Factories for July calls for 109,00 cars and trucks, or a production of 4 360 a day for 2f> days. Since the a.? sembling of cars is being handled dur ing anei ght hour work day only, th j hourly output will be 545 car3. In ott worus, one rora car or ituck leave the assembly line every 61-2 seconds. o ^umimimniniwu*? ^muiiiiiiiiiiiiiULiPP^ U. & MAIL LINE LwiMtuUFutMiAnwicu-FUi Shipt "Wic."
