Not long ago a real estate dealer in a large city, {While in a pessimistic mood, was heard to say: "The demand for city homes igrfalling offevery day. The average man Is living at his club or in his automobile. jHis wife's. time is taken up ,; with bridge, parties and other outside affairs. All they want is a place in which to rest their tired bodies when midnight comes^and there is no place to go." It used to be said that the heaVthstone was the foundation on which civilization rested. If this is true it is obvious that civilization's foundation 1s crumbling.

Representative Dominick placed in the record newspaper article from a candidate for the Anderson-post office who said .he was told he would have t? Pay $1,250 for the appointment. There were three eligibles, but Mr. Ddminick indicated that, he did not believe the present postmaster was the author odf the unsigned statement. Representative Hare told the committee he had no direct evidence- to prove that Tolbert and his henchmati had collected money, allegedly for ments concerning ^contributions'* Were common knowledge in South Carolina. a Some df the affidavits could be summarized as follows: J. W. Johnson, pf Gray Court; voluntary con-: tributions of $150 to Tolbert in sevaiii< years; Jesse W. Bird, of Inihan, no; demand, voluntarily contributions of small sums;-John W. Geraty, of Youngs Jsland,. $500 to Tolbert for tbe 1923 Republican campaign fund, $500 also in 1927 to Tolbert, and $350 for the Grace campaign fund in Charleston. , From Fountain Inn came the affidavit of Melvin L. Sips, who said 1 that in 1923, Tolbert ^Sold Sipe's ; fatber-jn-law,' T. B. Martin, that the poatmastership would be vacant, and urged Martin to try for it. Martin did not want it, and Sipe was suggested. It was intimated that $200 would be the proper sum to get the job. .. A. D. Webster, a "Republican leader in South Carolina, reported from Orangeburg that he had contributed ^liberallyM as a privale citlzen." . H. N. Folk stated from Bamberg that he had given each year since he attained legal manhood. -1 F. B. Gaffney of Gaffney swore that he had given $500' In cash to Tolbert. " 'jHi" Rnpnhlinnn mktinnwl rnmmitteQman, Gaffney said, did not stipulate any sum,~ but' said that all postmasters were expected to contribute. Gaffney said he gave $50, through Former Congressman Finley during the Democratic administration at Washington. <;< Julia E. D. Tolbert, of Ninety-Six, said she gave $25 voluntarily to L. W. O. Blalock in 1908 and $50 ip 1924 to Tolbert. John R, Tolbert, of 'Abbeville contributed to aid the party, he said Llda E. Sesler of Cowpens also gave "voluntarily" to Tolbert for political workT^handing Him the money as ^referee" during the past seven years. |?a. R. Barrttt -ttf Rock Hill paid $125 voluntarily to Tolbert, and the Walfcalla postmaster gave $100ijn the same way just before the Kansas art, of Camden, has been a consisten contributor to the Republican cause i V AKU1JNA. PR1DA1 DBCKMBKR John D. Carson, postmaster at Spartanburg, said ho handed G. II. Smith, the negro county chairman. $25 in March, 1928, to pay 'tfanaportation of five delegates to the state convention, and gave Smith $10 thirty days later, for a Spartanburg 1 meeting. , _ i $125 voluntarily to Tolbert., and the i James II.. McCord,.of Hodges, told! of how It. H. Tolbert came to him1 in 1924 and asked for $100 for the, political campaign. MeCord saysj he has paid, during the last four J years, three sums of $100, and one| of $50, It. It. Tolbert objected to this, and told MeCord he "should do better." George 11. Patrick, of Bowman, said in his affidavit that he paid $100, in October, 1027, $150 in December of the same year, to B. J. Mixon, who said contributions were custom ary, but not demanded. ! It appeared to be suggested that! since Patrick had received appoint-! ment, he should pay $250 which he did. Other affidavits carried this data: Paul M. Davis, of Donalds, voluntary contributions; John S. Cathcart, of Hartsville, voluntary contributions of $125 each in 1020 and 1027, and $50 in 1028. Luther J V. Martin, of Mullins, $100 to Tolbert in 1024 for Republican work; William H. Lott, of St. George; amounts of $5 to $10 since 1922, for local Republican work; J. W. Karnes, of Georgetown, $100 in 1924 and $100 in 1028, both through Tolbert; Nettie C. Moore, of Honeu Path, amounts ; of $20 to $40. John A. Chase of Florence, was ached for money in l.ie Wilson administration This hj>pos^ed tp be a Democratic contribution. ' Cecil S. Rice, of Denmark, said he gave voluntarily to the Democratic, national committee during the Wlson administration. 1 rom Piedmont, O. M. Huff stated that Tolbert raid he heard that people were demanding money for-jobs. Tolbert, according to Huff, advised telling the solicitors "to go to hell" and aovised that no money be paid out for influence. Dr. Frank Crane Says: r (This newspaper will-for some weeks continue to publish the work of the late Dr. Frank Crane. . Dr Crane recently passed away at Nice France. Before leaving for Europe, he had prepared a number of articles in advance.) . ?-?? - ijuik ~~ Milk is perhaps the most ideal food f6r a human being. It is our only food in infancy and a food too little used by adults. It has been called "the perfect food." I It is a food, however, that is hard to keep, for it readily spoils at too great a temperature. We have oreserved all other kinds of foods, we have salted ftah, canned . ii11..wim vegetables and fruit, canned meat and smoked ham. ^ In 1851 a man went to England with a meat biscuit he had invented. On the ship on which he traveled there were cows to give froBh milk. At that time most vessels resembled floating barnyards, that is, most vessels that pretended to give human comfort. The inventor observed on his Return trip home in the sumttter that the cows were sea sick, the milk was bad and many babies died. Coming home he devised a process of drying milk and canning it. After much difficulty the enterprise was successful. It grew to great proportions during the Civil War, when the government bought the entire. output of his fac* tories. 7 7 Since then preserved milk has been a lx>on"to aTTexplorers whether Jin the froien regions of the north or in darkest Africa. Herbert Hoover preserved the liv#fc and health of some 1,200,000 Belgian children by condensed milk. Our own-Mr. Strauss has provided himself a public benefactor by supply-* ing pure milk fqr babies. " i Any traveler in Europe is familiar witti the dirty milk that is supplied everywhere from milkmen's cans. These have befcn replaced almost entirely in America by the bottle. Still about 6,000,000 children in the .United States between the ages of two and fourteen are undernourished. They are stunted(/ for lack of proper food, usually for lack of milk. The various companies .handling milk have done much good_ by diseminating knowledge as to the value of pure I milk. Pure milk has as much to do with preventing infant'mortality as r any other one thing. In China, years I ago,, when they had plenty of*cows,J they created a great civilization, now that they have cut down their forests and eateh their cow>. they kill as "many babies as thiy fSt?6~. Y?TB|m* ~'~ not bring Up a child, with success, ontaa."?-y Those health departments in the .various cities which are insisting on pure milk end the companies which owe their, success to the distribution of pure milk, deserve all encouragement. Nothing could, be of more importance to the public health than the maintenance of a supply of pure milk. Throw out the old calendar and get a new one?make your resolutions?it's New Year's! We hope the New Year will be as wonderful for you as you have made the past _year for us. p Loan and Savings Bank i ii BtXECllTOR'H NOTICE iurties indebted to the estate BrWest, defused, are hereby BJ'to make payment to ft? un" BL, and all parties, if any, Eflnimg against the suid estate B.'t them duly attested withrajie prescribed by law.
