PHONE 137 . .,.j NOT ALL "BLACK 8HKKP" Klfure* Show Yhat Moat ^rttditrt Hon* Make Good A society of M?thodi?t preachers' sons has been formed to combat the old myth that preachers' eons ere bad and never amount to much. Just how this myth originated is not known, but probably at a very remote time some minister's son, whom everybody looked to as a model for the other hoys of the village, so departed from the path of virtue as to shock the entire community and to cast a shadow of suspicion on the offspring of every other parson through succeeding ages. At any rate the idea has long prevailed that preachers' sons are a bad lot--* conviction that exemplary conduct could not entirely erase. The names of some of the eminent men who are officers of this organization constitute positive proof that not all clergymen's sons are scapegraces. Melville K, Stone, founder of the Associated Press, is one of its vice-presidents, the other vice-presidents being Paul H. Helms, president of the General Baking Corporation, and Emory R. Buckner, federal district attorney of New York. Fletcher H. Montgomery, of New York, is president. But some may protest, these may be the only preachers' sons among many thousands who ever made a name for themselves?a few white sheep among a vast herd of black sheep. How about the remainder of parsons' progeny ? "Who's Who" supplies ample data with which the newly formed organization might explode the myth, not only as It applies to the sons of Methodist ministers, but to the sons of clergymen of other denominations. All persons sketched in the 1922-23 edition of this reference book of eminent men were asked to indicate the occupation of their fathers. It was found that not less than 2,695, or 11 per cent, were preachers' sons. Still others mentioned that their fathers combined preaching with some other occupation. The census for the year 1870, the year nearest the birth of these notables, shows that clergymen comprised less than one-half of one per cent of all men. Upon this basis, it is calculated that clergymen fathered 28 times thO average number of notables, one Protestant minister in each 15 having a child whose name luter appeared in "Who's Who." In the same year business and professional men fathered seven and sixteen times, respectively, the average number of notables, or the number that might have been expected from their portion of the total population, while farmers fathered less thun their proportionate share, and unskilled laborers much less then farmers. Still more impressive is the statement that "Protestant clergymen about 1870 contributed in proportion to their numbers about 2.400 times as many eminent persons as did unskilled laborers, 35 times as many as business men and over twice as many | as the average of other professional ' men." Although the whaling industry is reported to he declining in Newfound, land, 1,690 long tons of whale oil were exported in 1926. FINAL DISCHARGE Notice is hereby given that one month from this date, on Monday, December 26th, 1927, 1 will make to the Probate Court of Kershaw County my final return as Executor of the estate of Emma Whitley, deceased, and on the same date 1 will apply to the said Court for a final discharge from mv trust as said Executor.

C. Webeter and J.' 8. Merrlam, engineer*, who were working in that locally, this morning overpowered and cfragged the animal out of the water' alive, without injury. The deer was brought here in a truck which happened to be Easting along the strand, and c*n now e seen within the wire encloeure of the new tennis court where it i* securely fastened. The tussle was fought in water about wajst deep. The deer la about six years old. The fleet and atalwart engineers have received the congratulations of their friends on the remarkable capture. The prisoner is attracting considerable attention. In a town near Paris, France, a resident recently found a bill for fity franca, and, being honest, took it to the mayor. When the chief of police heard about it he had the man arrested under a town regulation requiring that all lost articles be handed In to the chief of police. Brought Into court, the honest man was fined two francs. An overpowering perfume of freshly gathered violets so fills one of the rooms of a UOO-year-old English | farmhouse that the tenant has had to vacate it. Although the room has been thoroughly examined, the odor persists. Legend has it that a girl, while arranging violets in a bowl in this room, was stabbed by her jilted I lover. T??

An enor! mous crowd, estimated as high as 8,000 persons had been orcsent when Fleming was hanged after he, in a calm voice, said "I am going an innocent man. 1 hope to meet you all in Heaven."
