The Kittle Things Count
11'? the little thing* ohat count,
and that's why O. J. Barrett, an
Augusta ((in.) man hinds his name
In print as the subject of a human
Interest story. Prior to his marriage
twenty years ago, he made it u rule
to save every ten ^eent piere that
came into iiis possession. During the
ensuing lapse of time he has bought
and An a ta?
these dime savings, and is driving his
second automobile therefrom, He also
owns a block of building and loan
stock, the monthly payments for
which come from his dime savings
fund. Prior to the time he' Began the
dime-savings ha! it, this man considered
himself broke, down and out,
just like many another one, who never
saved anything nor gotten ahead.
Had he waited until he had a dollur
or a hundred dollars in his possession
the chances are 1,000 to 1 he
would never have been more than a
good spender. But he came to himself
and decided it was bettor to save
a dime than save nothing. That was
the big lesson he mastered. So manv
people can never get that point
drilled into their heads. It is far
better to save a dime, or even a penny
and add othei dimes or pennies there
to, than to live right up to the earning
capacity every (lay. -There is n<>
luck or short cut to getting ahead if
you haw to depend solely on your
callings. It is the >ame straight
narrow path of sclfdenial, thrift,
prudence and economy. ?Spartanburg

Character Counts Most
It is an old story, hut one whim
illustrates many things in business.
First of all, character; second, the
va'uo (?f reputation, which oftentimes
is made up of little incidents
like the choosing of associates.
A man with high character hut
no assets called on the elder Morgan
for a loan. Mr. Morgan listened to
him, then put on his hat and asked
the applicant to accompany him down
the street.
They walked out of the Morgan offices,
down Wall street for several
blocks, Mr. Morgan bowing and speaking
to acquaintances as he went
along. Finally, Mr. Morgan turned,
shook the man by the hand and bad-'
him good-day. The applicant for tho
loan said, "But, Mr. Morgan, how
about the loan?"
Mi Morgan replied: "I have maii
i' i' blc for you to get your loan
m char.iK i- much more natufal thaui
Iroin me. Any of the men who saw J
y?.u w.;i. niy :h;- morning will he

A GUESSING CONTEST

decide whether or not she
can do any better; her

marriage ther aim is at
him. Our aim is to induce
you to try Kream

On Making A Newspaper
(Jetting out a good newspaper is a
fascinating task, hut it is also a difficult
one, says the Redwood, Minn.,
(ia/.ette. No other job that cornea to
mind is quite so taxing, so hurried or
demands greater pains. From the
moment a newspaper is started, be
either daily or weekly, the work is
carried on under pressure, a race
against time'. Put yourself in an editor'
position?could you do it?
< <>uld you, for example, spell eorrei!
y, offhand, the names of a large'
p? i. < ntage ?.f the residents of th s
town? If \"U could do that, con 1 1
yo;, write their initials correctly without
resort i tig to the telephone directory
or othei authority? Could you
write d.-wn. offhand, the names ofj
your city officials, your school board,'
your coun'v officials, \.-ur leading)
state and national official.- getting a1!
the names, initials and offices correct
? Could you gather the threads
of a story from half a dozen persons
and weave them into an intelligent,
readable account the first writing.
Could you write seven columns of material
of 1 ,200 to 1,400 words each in
two or thtee days, week after week,
year after year, and when you had
finished tho>e seven, pound out two
or three columns more before press .
time? In writing a headline, could
you call to mind in a moment enough
synonyms so that you would not repeat
the main thought in the same
words? Could you judge in a minimum
of time what size headlines,
and what position in tin paper, -hould
bo given to each-ot the 75, 100 or
more >torie- that might go into your I
paper? i ..Jul > u declue in a mome*-'.

The point we wish to make is, that
one can produce a good newspaper
' only after continual, diligent study
and years of practical experience.
You have heard dozens of persons remark
that they could turn out a newsI
paper, and a good one, too. a bit better,
in fact, than the one they are
getting. That is not true, unless they
| have gone through the years and
j study that a good newspaper de:

Were it not for the peculiar fascination
associated with newspaper
! work, there would be no newspapers,
for there is n.? greater taskmaster
and money would be far too
scant compensation.

Some of the financial advantages
that would accrue to the state fro'"
the completion of the state highway
system arc pointed out by Karl P.
Abbott, president of the Abbott Ho
tels corporation, which operates the
Kirkwood hotel at Camden, in a letter
to Coleman W. Roberts, general
manager of-the South Carolina Motor
club. In his letter he expressed the
earnest hofie that the plan of ttyo
state highway commission f6r the
immediate completion of the state
highway system would be adopted.
Pointing out the need of a connected
highway system all over the
state, Mr. Abbott, in his letter calls
particular attention to what he.terms
"a tragic need of the paving of highway
No. 1"
"It is said th^t the Northern tourists
spent upwards of five hundred
millions of dollars in the South last
winter."' says Mr. Abbott. "This is
a crop not affected by drought, flood
or boll weevil. Did South Carolina
get her share?' Just so long as
South Carolina has a climate that it
has, 1H hours from New York City,
:t is going to attract more and more
wealthy people, who, after they become
'sold on this delightful state
and its climate," are going to invest
here; take Camden for an example.
"Weather like that which we huv:ha.i
the past few days puts the xoaJ-.
in >u. h condition that the people go
into Florida with anything but a
bo">t for South Carolina and he
ro:ei system, and when we think that
tin road is practically through, with
tin exception of about 00 miles, it i.->
too bad that something cannot' be
do?;**. I o my mind, South Carolina
offer - a > much to the Northern tourist
as any other Southern state and
ultimately it should come into its
own. us a tuurist center."

Police authorities of Watertown,
Mass., are having some difficulty in
fully deciding whether or not Mrs.

had met with foul play und the house

FARMALL
and Its Equipment
^International harvester engineer.
i have worked just as long and as harcTin design. I
JL ing Farmall tools and' equipment as they havt J
in developing the FarmalL It's the combination of I
the Farmall with its easy handling and accurate work-?
ing tools that make it the phenomenal success it is. 1
The McCormick-Deering Farmall is not the fir* 1
general-purpose tractor to be 'bSered to farmers. 1
Tractors designed for all-crop power farming were I
built ten years ago. But they got nowhere because I
the manufacturers forgot or did not know that \ 1
really successful general-purpose tractor must start 1
from the implement end. It must work right with |
the various plows, cultivators, planters, mowers and I
other specialized tools.
The Farmall is a system of farming, capable of
cutting cost^ in general farm production to the bone.
Farmall results have built Farmall demand. A
" Farmall will pay on any farm of 50 acres or* more,"
Talk it over with your McCormick-Deering dealer.
International Harvester Company
606 So. Michigan Ave. Chicago, 1IL i
USE FARMALL with the 2 or 4-row planter and you will put in 25
to 60 acres of corn in an 8-hour day, and <idrit easily. With the 4-row
cultivator on the Farmall, also shown here, you can clean the rows at the rate
oi 35 acres in an 8-hour day, in early cultivation, and over 50 acres a day in
later cultivating. At haying time, Farmall with 7'foot power-driven Farmall
mower will easily cut 25 acresoi the heaviest hay in an 8-hour day. By adding
a 7-foot trailer mower, ae shown here, you can cut 50 acres, and more, tnj "
day. At raking, tedding, on the sweep rake, loading, hauling, etc., the Farmall
means new economies and new profits. Farmall is perfectly adapted for plowing,
for belt work, and for horseless farming the year around.
