An Interest inn: Hut: l>i*rour:tgtn;; glory of the State'# Institution. (By Wm. P. Jacob*.) ( linton, S. November Knh - i Just five year* utfi, the Le(]|]|ittP0 q( South Carolina, after a thorough in vestigation, recognized the appalling '' itUllltioK to South Carolina' < feeble minded.' Statistics showed an alarming increase in crime and degen tlwei'tly trainable n? tho.se un fortunate^ in our midst, Who were un able^ to take care of themselves and could hardly be considered responsi ble. An institution was begun at Clin ton by the State on 1200 acres of land. The original equipment included two modern brick dormitories, one for males, the other for females, and two or three old temporary wooden stun hires. While the equipment could never be considered adequate, yet it was -a wonderful step in the right direction. Little did the South Carolina leg islators know at that time that they were only making a meagre start. Little did they realize that the de mand for such an institution would grow rapidly. Little did they think that the institution would open with a capacity enrollment. Little did they know that they were merely scratch ing the surface of the problem, their operations merely emphasising the enormous need which lay hidden, and their scratching bringing to light one of the greatest, most important and most needy fields for state activity. Such, however, has been the out come. From the very beginning the waiting list has rapidly increased at the institution, quickly mounting to such enormous proportions as to make present day applicants almost hope less, i he waiting list rapidly outgrows the enrollment, outgrows the institu son admitted to the institution there are several applicants waiting. Hun dreds discouraged at the large wait ing list have not applied. The institution is not now over flowing, for an overflowing enrollment would be dangerous, but it is full absolutely full to the limit, - There are now enrolled at the State 1 raining School 207, of which 120 are males and Hi females. In the enroll ment practically every county in the State is represented; likewise practi cally every county is represented on the waiting list. This_Jare enrollment, exaggerated by the tremendous need and appalling circumstances, is made possible by a number of recently elected temporary bin racks. ? buildings that neither ?.eimit of greatest care, instruction, segregation or medication.. The tem porary barracks merely offer some de gree of care and comfort. That the institution L- * napped by its meagre equipment) is doing a wonderful work for the state I ?s fully evident to the visitor. The chil dren are all apparently contented and. hrppy. Most of them nrr kept busv. their minds are occupied, there are smiles on their faces, and laughter and songs in their voices. Their de tmn to their instructors and care takers is readily apparent. Particu I.it !y are they fond nt t he superinten dent and his wife, Dr. and Mrs. B. O. U bitten, who always have a smile, a kind word and a helping hand for every boy and ?-;rl. The fatherly and motherly care exercised by the .super intendent and his official family over the entire big household and the plain ly apparent devotion of the children, makes one feel as though he were in *1 great bijr home where all is har mony and devotion. What a contrast too u hen you Scop and think! Com pM i e t hi* children of this happy insti tution with tbe ies<! fortunates who nuntlfr in the hundreds, probably thousands in our state. They are the neglected waifes, outcasts. thieves, mui derers, the low. the degenerate,! the curse of our state. I? is- a curse that is rapidly gaining in strength;' greatly increasing ir. numbers; bo-; cause they neither are restricted nor; cared for. Crimp breeds crimi/: indigents pro duce only indigents, and their chil dren rapidly t\!l our .-tat*.- with the mentally deficient, t ho morally irres ponsible, the intellectually impossible, the socially dependent. The history of one family > ;i tin- training sohool shows fuu: generations great grand mother. grand-mother. mother and child, all indigent, irresponsible, im possible mentally. Three of them are now in the institution. None of them are lyarried. Where are we headed, ><>uth Caro linians? In the right direction surely when the training school is considered but in the wrong direction certainly when we contemplate the tremendous field yet untouched, t h?* hopelessly growing waiting list, and this rapidly degenerating unenred for clement of our population. Plans, Dr. Whitten states, are now under foot to induce the next legis lature to appropriate funds to care for more -of these unfortunates; to in- ] crease the equipment sufficiently U> d.

Department of Agriculture wrote us, after reading our literature on "Naco Brand Open-Formula No-Filler Fertilizer." "If the Farmer would buy his fertilizers with the same care he does other merchandise, he could double his crops and get rich." "Wo think your plan of leaving out the Filler is .splendid and will be appreciated by those farmers who give some thought to what they are using under their crops." ? Don't see how cheaply you can buy a fertilizer, for cheap fertilizers are not always g</od investments.
