' i J aniens against bljkasjk Cleaason Profeaaor To Seek Senate Beat in 1930, Columbia Hears Columbia, Aug. lsT-South (JaroUiuans why hftve l^njf sought. ttn y,,. porluuily to vote for Dr. D. W Daniels, of t'leroson college, fyr un office of high honor and trust, will have tthe opportunity in 193U, it was authentically learned here today. Dr. Daniel will oppose Cole L. H lease for the Uinted States senatorial tuea >n 1!?0, * " Dr. Daniels had been mentioned as gubernatorial timber for many years. He is a scholar, an orator, u close student of national affairs and admits that he is not a politician in the commonly accepted interpretation of the term in South Carolina. lhe senatorial aspirant is sixty-one years old, a native of Laurens county and in June concluded thirty years' service in the education of the youth of the state at Clemson. He is a Methodist, was graduated at WofTord college in the class of 1892, received his M. A. degree at Vanderbilt university, and in 1914 the degree of Litt. D. was conferred by WofTord. Like his father, Dr. Daniel served as u teacher and principal of schools at Hebron, Central, Bate?burg and WofPbrd fitting school. In 1898 he was elected assistant professor of English at Clemson, associate professor in 1906, and head of the division in 1913. His reputation as a scholar, educutor and departmental director is second only to his recognized ability as an orator and public speaker. | He is recognized as the state's most fluent orator, and has appeared on Chautauqua platforms five seasons. During the presidential campaigns of the late Woodrow Wilson, Dr. Daniel spoke in Northern and Eastern states and received the thanks of the nation, al Democratic executive committee for the part ho played in helping elect President Wilson. State .Bank Besources Grow Albert S. Fant, State Bank Examiner, recently reported that resources of 203 State banks, one private banking institution and 26 branch banks in South Carolina as of June 30, showed a total of $108,278,021.42, which is a gain od approximately $2,000,000 over the February 28 statement. A pleasing condition surely. Reminding that for the past year or two there has bean a most pronounced trend toward curbing the get-richquick type of banker in this State, and depositors have also taken to studying the characteristics of the financial institutions before patron izing them. Nobody has welcomed that sort of program more keenly than our leading bankers. Increased deposits are noted in all banks. The national institutions, of course, are not in Mr. Fant's official report, but they, too, have prospered, i The picture is drawn as a sequence | to the greater prosperity of the peo- ' pie in South4 Carolina,, industrially, j agriculturally and commercially. SoUtl^ Carolina has. advanced more rapidly the past year than it ever advanced in any given five years, and it is going to advance more in the! next year than it did in 1928, less all signs fail.?Columbia Records a i * v _ ^ S ' FAMILY WANTED LUXURY So Whiteford Stole $50,000 From Employer New York, Aug. 16.?On January 4, 1 1*22, Mrs. Walter K, Whiteford casually asked her husband how much salary he was drawing a week as cashier for 1). <J. Health and company, printers und publishers here. "Sixty dollars a week," replied the husband, truthfully. "Nonsense!" chiueu Mrs. White ford. "You've worked there fourteen years and everyone knows how capable you are. Walter, 1 know you're just fooling. You must be drawing more than that." The next day Whiteford raised a check and brought the stolen money home to his wife. Between January 5 and June 1, 11*22, he hud forged and raised thirty-nine checks and had taken $2,1165 from his employers. Up to today, when he wus arrested as he stepped from a train at the Grand Central terminal at the end of a vacation trip to California with his wife and fourteen-year-old daughter, Whiteford had stolen between $50,000 and $75,000 by doctoring checks and juggling his accounts. A rather mild-mannered, bespectacled little fellow, prematurely grayhaired at forty-four, because he had seen the spectre of arrest and disgrace daily for six ye.ars and more, Whiteford sat in police headquarters and with the crisp conciseness of a well trained business executive, detailed his methods of speculations. He had even kept books of his thefts for the first six months, he expluined. "What did you do with the money?" a detective asked him. "Was it Wall street? The ladies? The horses? Booze?" "No," said the trusted cashier. "It was my family. My wife and daughter?they got it all." Detectives hastened to the sumptuous apartment at No. 247 New York avenue, in a smart section of Brooklyn, and were amazed to learn Whiteford had told the truth. But they were no more surprised than was Mrs. Whiteford to learn of her impeaceable husband's predicament. "Yes," she told them, "I'm sure ' he spent it all on us." Then the wife turned over $13,000 she had saved from Whiteford's "income" and gave up the keys to their beautiful new sedan. She said her husband had denied his family nothing, pointing to the well furnished six-room apartment. Their daughter had attended a fine school and in addition had been given private tutoring in music. She is now at an exclusive camp for girls. There had been several automobiles and many pleasure trips and vacation tours. "But I thought he was drawing down the income from some bonds he had bought years ago," explained Mrs. Whiteford. "I thought his salary was as large as befits a man of his attainments. I never dreamed it was?like this." Whiteford's arrest came as the result of the observation of a subordinate, in charge during his vacation,' that a $75 check had been r$iaa4 to $175 by manipulation of a check protecting device. Allen Grant <yi>ell,r manager of the concern, who af&i Whiteford had started with the company - as an office boy, notified tltyt police and detectives met the train on which the Whitefords were returning from a tour which included Montreal, Yellowstone Park and California. J " . / The engineer was killed and 100 passengers were more or less injured when a locomotive of the Burlington road, split a switch ' at LaCrosse, Wis., Saturday morning? and ran 400 feet on a sidetrack. The engine and two mail cars ploughed through six walls of a machine shop and round house before stopping. ? Estimates place the Joss of life at 200, with 10,000 homeless, as the re. suit of a tropical storm which swept | Haiti on Friday and Friday night. Y.i What is Worth While? (Dr. Frank Crane) The difference praba/bly between the man of good judgement and the scatter-brain is that the former emphasizes the important things and lets alone the unimportant, while the latter is equally in earnest about them all. A man has reached a great point in his career when he can see a lot of things make no difference to him. He has a certain end in view and only appreciates the things that bear on that end. Other matters make no difference. The line that divides the successful man from the unsuccessful is usually the fact that the successful man never loses sight of the goal he has in view, while the unsuccessful man runs aibout hither and thither like an ant. He has activity, but it is largely waste motion. Every once in a while you hoar on the street the expression, "What's the big idea?" The big idea seems to stand for the main and informing purpose for which anything is done or said. The big idea is like the perfect design of the building in the mind and the trestle board of the architect. He gives to every man his work and puts every piece of material in its place. I have read some novels that seemed to be a mere frittering away of my time, for there was no dominant thought about which they were written. Religious belief in a way simply means that a man has some big ides about his life, and all of his words and deeds must conform to this plan, Music is only merely a pleasant succession of sounds. It must have unity and form and individuality, There must be a big idea behind it The idea is bigger than the man thfrt has it. A man becomes great only when he allows himself to be absorbed in the idea. Many people suffer because theii energies are frittered away. Thej have no cohesive plan, and everything they do is hit or miss. They never amount to anything, because there is no big idea behind them. Search yourself carefully to fine your dominating desire, and see that it is such as can merit youi giving up all your life to it. r Then you will come to success or $o&rd a big idea when ' you uevei would have attained it otherwise.
