From a Former Citizen
In writing to The Chronicle u few
days ago, with a renewal of his subscription,
we arc in receipt of the
following highly appreciated letter
from a former citizen, now a wellknown
practicing attorney in a distant
city:
"The paper comes regularly and
is always a welcomed visitor to my
desk as I still see a number of the
names of friends 1 knew over thirty
years ago. Am also greutly pleased
to note the activities in JwjMnoss and
building circles and confidently expect
the town to become a real city
in u very fnw years.
"Some of my fondest recollections
cluster about the old town, and While
I rejoice to note its progress, 1 trust
it will never lose its original charm
as a place of real homes, of hospitality
and chivalry."
The field force of the South Carolina
Highway Department are now in
vurious sections of the state rounding
up those who have not yet received
their 192H automi/bile license
tags. Those who have not yet secured
this year's tag would do well
to keep off the highways if they
want to stay out of the "hands of
the law."
Report of The (JiiiM.
According to YVillium I). Cook,
special agent, there were 24,270
bales of cotton, counting round as
half bales, ginned in Kershaw County,
from the crop of 1027 prior to
.January 10, 1028, as compared with
8M.27M bales ginned to January 10,
1027.
Making a Correction.
In our report of taxes collected
la-t week The Chronicle made an ert
< r by using these words relating to
tux executions after March lath:
"The unpaid lax list goes over to the
sheriff who issues executions." This
was an error on our part. The
treasurer issues the executions on all
unpaid taxes and these are placed in
the hands of the sheriff for collection.
In the matter of the back taxes,
the sheriff on!\ had one years taxes
to collect, as the outgoing sheriff,
(i. C. Welsh, turned over a practically
a clean sheet to Sheriff McLeod.
The report of John H. Anderson of [
f ayetteville, grand master of Masons (
of North Carolina, made at Raleigh U> ;
the 111st session of the grand lodge j
on ruesday, shows that there are
40.000 members '-J the fra'ein:.t\ in [
that state.

VICTORY AND DEFEAT
Governor Winn on Hunduy HmI?h But
l.ortf.s on Hunduy Go*.
Columbia, Jmii. 20.?The State Supreme
Court, in an opinion on the
so-called Sunday blue lawn, filed late
today, held that yaaolinc cannot be
sold in South Carolina on Sundays,
hut that udconunercialized golf playing
in lawful.
The dociaionii, whu h grew out of
an attempt a year ago by Governor
John G. Richards to enforce t'he ancient
Sabbath observations statutes
of the State, some of which date back
' to 1091, therefore, constitute a victory
and defeat for th% chief executive's
interpretation of the laws.
Except to say he was well pleased
with the court's action, Governor
Richards would make no comment.
The remittitur in the case, in accordance
with regular procure, will
be bunded down in ten days, at
which time the court's opinion will
tuke effect.
In the prevailing opinion, written
by Associate Justice Eugene S.
Bleaae, it was held in both cases
tliat the circuit judges erred when
they granted the injunctions by which
the governor's law enforcement officials
were restrained from interfering
with the playing of golf and the
selling of gasoline and motor oils.
The court summarized its opinion
us to golf as follows:
"That it is not unlawful for one to
engage in the game of golf as an
exercise, sport or pastime on Sunday,
but it is unlawful for one in any way
or manner to engage in golf as a
worldly laU^j- or business on Sunday."
Pointing\to the fact that the
statute specifically makes the Sunday
laws apply to persons more than
fifteen years old, the opinion held
that caddies under that age could
be used.
In like manner the opinion as to
gasoline was summarized as follows:
"That the sale of gasoline and
motor oils on Sunday, and the exercise
of the business of selling those
articles, can only be engaged in under
the law where it is done, as
stated in the statute, as a 'work of
necessity or charity;' that the burden
of showing the necessity or
charity must rest upon the seller and
guilt or innocence of any persons
charged with the violation of the
statute must depend entirely upon
the facts and circumstances of each
case, as is the general rule in all
prosecutions for criminal offenses."
I he blue law cases grew out of
a campaign by Governor Richards
shortly after he took office, in January
18 of last year, to stop all golf
on Sunday and to prevent the sale
ol a!! articles of merchandise except
a Jew classes he recognized as
necessities, which included milk, ice,
drugs and prepared meals. Numbers
oi goiters were arrested at
various points in the State, and all
acre acquitted by juries in magistrates'
courts. 'c'
1 he golf question came to a crisis
when Circuit Judge Hayne F. Rice
issued an injunction upon the petition
> ! 1 ho-ma* Hitchcock, international!v
known po'o p'ayer, and others, restraining
officers of the law from in'<
rawing with the playing of the
game on thi Palmetto links and the
High.and Park courses, of Aiken.
A snort time later the Charleston
Oil t ompany, of Charleston, sought
the same remedy by obtaining an
ir.jtim tion from Circuit Judge William
H. Grinriball, preventing interference
by officers with the sales
! gn?o':ine and motor oils.
t^n instructions of Governor Richj
aids. Attorney General John. M.
j hanieN appealed from the orders
ot Judge Rice and Grimball, and in
j its opinions today the ' court dis!
solved both injunctions.
In the gasoline case, Chief Jus|
tier Watts, Associate Justice Sta;
bier. Associate Justice Carter and As^
>o? into Justice Cothran concurred, the
last named in the result only, re|
rvii.g his opinion as to the eon\
>titutional.ty of the statutes involved.
; Chief Justice Watts dissented
j "! ,ni majority opinion in the
I g"lt rav, while Associate Justice
van dissented part and conciiM-ed
in par:. Associate Justice
>.ab.er and ( arter concurred with
Justice. Blease.

Rated ?!i One of the htf|Mt FraUr*
nal Ordern in America.
The Junior Order United American
Mechanics was instituted in America
76 years ago ami since that time there
has been 2,000 council# organized and
still functioning in over 44 states of
the union.
At the present time the membership
of this order exceeds 840,000 and
is rated as one of the largest fraternal
organizations in America.
The wonderful success that this
order has enjoyed is largely due to
the principles for which it stands,
namely: freedom of speech, freedom
of worship, separation of church and
state, protection of Americans and
their interests, upholding of American
free public schools and encouraging
the reading of the Holy Bible
therein, helping and assisting its
members, and taking care of the deceased
members widows and children.
The order provides for the creation
of a fund for the puyment of benefits
in case of disability or death of its
members to their legal dependents.
It also maintains two homes for
the children of deceased members.
At these homes the children are
given a common and high school education
and vocational schools are
maintained wherein they are taught
a trade to fit them for the battle of
life, also they are given a thorough
knowledge of God's word.
These two homes?one located at
Tiffin, Ohio, and one at Lexington,
N. ?are taking care of 1,850 children
of deceased members of this order.
The Junior Order has always advocated
compulsory educational laws
and is still doing so.
It is largely (Jue to the efforts of
this order that we now have a uniform
text book in South Carolina.
This order has been the cause of
more thun 50,000 flags of our country
being raised above opr public schools
and most as many Holy Bifbles placed
within, them, thus preparing our;
youth for the highest type of American
citizenship, and inspiring them
with "Virtue, Patrotism, and Liberty,"
the attributes of which are now
and will be in the future, responsible
for our national life. \
On September 2, 1927, DeKalb
Council No. 88, Jr. O. U. JV. M., was
instituted in Camden, &. jC., with a
charter list of 26 members, and since
that time, the membership has grown
wonderfully, but we are not satisfied
with our present membership, and
are therefore muking every effort
possible to increase by getting into
the order the men of the community
that stand for the principles, upon
which our Order is based.
Should there be any old Junior
Order men in Cumden that desires to
be reinstated, or any others that
want to join, the local council or any
of its members, will be glad to take
the matter up with them.
The council will meet iu regularsession
Monday evening, February ?
at 8 o'clock pnd immediately following
a fish supper will be served.
The records of an Ohio court show
that a man convicted of theft was
cured by the sentence that he be
'divested of his apparel, tied to a
tree and subjected to the bites of
mosquitoes for one hour.'
