YOU HELPED TO DO IT
Men Who have aeon expensive automobiles
on the Coastal highway
and luxurious private oars on the
railroads, speeding north or ,south,
have been heard to ask: "Where do
they get the money?"
Last week the manufacturer pf a
popular brand pf soup and canned
vegetables died in a northern city.
His estate was appraised at $114,000,000
or nearly double the value
of a .South Carolina cotton crop.
The Herald wonders how many
South Carolinians helped tx> build
. 9 up that big fortune by sending their
money away for the same soups and
canned vegetables they could have
made or bought at home.
. No doubt the ingredients of the
soup or the canned vegetables were
raided on South Carolina soils, sold
at a small profit or no profit at all,
and bought back at .high prices.
The Herald has, of course, no criticism
to mako of the manufacturer
of the soups and canned vegetables.
He was, no doubt, a remarkable
1 V *
business genius and earned every
dollar he made put of pis soups and
vegetables. He was entitled to all
the good things that his wealth
placed within his reach. If there is
any room for criticism the blame
rests upon the people who helped to
build up this big fortune with their
own hard-earned dollars. '
The number of southern people
who ride in expensive automobiles or
de luxe private cars is very, very
small.?Dillon Herald.

Two man who confront*! death in
the elootrtc chair January 4, 1V2?,

George Palmer and John Brown, back

Chinese laundryman named Charlie
I*oy, the surviving negroes wore informed
that Governor Richards had
commuted their death penalties o
life imprisonment. Both negroes., who
died had joined in protesting the innocence
of theae two.
A long-cherished dream of Newberry
county has been realized. A modern
cannery, which will have a capacity
of 1,000 caaea per day, has been
established there. W. D. Ross, who
came to South Carolina from Delaware
two years ago aa the reault of
an address which he heard' in Chicago
by Dr. William Weston, managing
director of the South Carolina
Natural Reaourcea Commission, ia the
moving spirit in the new enterprise,
Last year he was engaged in the, production
and aale of fresh vegetables
in Bamberg and adjoining counties.
Mr. Ross contemplates the establishment
of cannerrfes in other parts of
central South Carolina he states.

FORD BRAKES
ARE UNUSUALLY
EFFECTIVE
Reliability and safety
due to simple design and
careful construction
ONE OF the first things you will notice when you [
drive the Ford is the quick, effective action of its
four-wheel brakes.
They are unusually safe and reliable because
they are mechanical, internal expanding, with all ;
braking surfaces fully enclosed. This prevents mud,
water, sand, etc., from getting between the band
and drum and interfering with brake action* _.L
'Other outstanding features of the Ford are the i
Triplex shatter-proof glass windshield, four'Houdaille
double-acting hydraulic shock absorbers,
aluminum pistons, torque-tube drive, more than
twenty ball and roller bearings, Rustless Steel,
reliability, economy, and long life.
You save when you buy the Ford and you save
every mile you drive. |
