I WENT A-COURTING
, .1 was. about 20 years old before
I ever did any down-rjght courting.
1 was so green at that age, I was
mistaken several times by the milch
cows for a shock of oats. I had finished
school in a country shack and
let loose on the ^orld with about a
seventh grade education.
..After I had sprouted enough little
white fuz on my chin and beneath
my nose to shave 4 or 5 times, I felt
like I was a man, and need tp look
ground for a mate^ (I don't yet see
how pa's razor got so dull cutting off
E my whiskers, But it took him 2 hours
to get it sharp enough <after I used
[ it to sever his beard.) .
h". A
..A nice gmh-lqtme get acquainted
with her about tKTs time. She was
very pretty, had red hair, a few
freckles^4>?etty teeth and could outwink
a hoot-owl. Her winks caught
me. She let me visit her. She lived
[- 35 miles up the railroad. I bought
a ticket one Saturday afternoon and
" got on the mixeji freight and arrived
at her house about 5:30 p. m.
..Was I dressed up? Was my red
i? tie pretty? Were those No. 6 patentleather
shoes on my No. 8 feet shiny,
and it in August? Was bhat blue
serge suit immaculate? Was that
plaited bosom shirt and tftfet standing
collar just a few years, ahead
of style? Was that.box of stick
candy (18) a fine present for Mary
Sue? Was my hair glued to my head
with grease? And were my green
traveling specks up to the minute?
I'm telling you.
?___
..She met me at the gate and I met
her at the gate. .She laughed and
I smiled also. She seemed to admire
me. We went in. Her ma came in
and her 5 sisters and 6 brothers began
to peep in from 15 different
places. They had a sofa, the first
one I ever saw. We sat on it, 5 feet
apart. fliheV had a swinging lamp
with glass earbobs on it. I helped
her light it with a straw.
TWe talked' some, but got no closer.
Her pa came in said: "Who air you
and what do you follow?" I wished
I was at home. We ate supper. I
was scared pink, .thinking he might
call oji me for the blessing, but they
had none. I swallowed very loud, I
sweated profusely, I knocked over my
gobbler of milk, and spilt the gravy.
I spent the night, but couldnt sleep
on that soft bed. My nice shirt was
wrinkled?I slept in it,. I got in a
hurry to go^ home, so put on my
things and slipped out of the baywindow
about 6 a. m., and went to
the depot and caught the first northbound.
Then I quit courting for 4
years, but finally got married to another
girl,i much prettier.

McSwain Advises The
United States To Arm
Citing Germany'* withdrawal as
'the death knell of the disarmament
onferenc^," Congressman John J. <
VloSwaln, representative from the '
fourth South Carolina district and i
.'hairman of the military affairs comnittee
of the national House of Hep esentatives
yesterday called on the ,
United States to arm for the protection
of the national borders and the
preserval ion ^>f? peace,
" The disarmament program is
frustrated and America must arm,"
Jongreasman McSwain declared as he ,
end dispatches telling of Germany's
onr.al withdrawal from the League
>f Nations and the disarmament conference,
"America must arm with planes,"
he asserted. "We should have an air
force at least half as big as the combined
air squadrons of Europe."
"Germany's action," he declared,
"has sounded the death knell of the
disarmament conference. Neither
England nor France will join in a
program of disarmament unless both
Germany and Italy also join. Italy
will not join unless Germany joins, so
the plan has been frustrated."
"America wants pea,ce," he continuod,
"but she also war\W safety herself
and peace among other nations,
and in order to have that she must
have the physical power to compel
peace."
The committee chairman said he
considered the development of' a
mighty air force as economical and
the most effective way of compelling
peace.?'Sunday's Spartanburg Herald.

Oklahoma City, Oct. 18.?With a j
?B<?er on hi* lips, George ("Machine f
Gun ") Kelly wan started for Leavenworth
federal penitentiary today t
aboard a locked, juirred and bulletproof
railway coach.
Eight federal agents, eaeh carrying j
ft machine gun, rode with the deeper- j
ado, one of six persons sentenced to (
life imprisonment for the 3200,000 t
kidnaping of Charles F, Urschel, Oklahoma
City oil millionaire. ,
The prison coach was attached to k
a regular passenger train. 11
Harold Nathan, assistant director ?
of the federal burcal of investigation, t
said arrival at Leavenworth was t
scheduled for midnight.
"1 won't be in this spot long," &elly
scoiFed just before he was taken
aboard the coach, <
His auburn-haired wife, Kathryn, j
convicted with him and also sentenced ?
to life imprisonment, remained be- ,
hind in the county jail. W. C. Geers, <
United States marshal, said he had J
not received orders to remove her to
a penitentiary. \
Justice department officials said at i
Washington Kelly would be confined
at Leavenworth only temporarily, and
that he would be transferred to the
government's new prison for dangerous
convicts?-Alcatraz island, off San
Francisco?as soon as the island
prison is ready for use.
"Bo a good boy," Kathryn told her
husband and kissed him through the I
bars of her cell. \ <>
"I will," Kelly responded glumly.
Handcuffs and leg irons were kept
on him as he took his fceat in the

4-H Local leader Training Meeting
Mrs. Harriet F. Johnson, girls' 4-H
club leader, held the first training
meeting at the court house last Saturday
afternoon with six leaders
present. This is the beginning of
local leadership work, for girls in
Kershaw county.
~~ A~local Jender is an older girl or I
woman who is intorested in the girls I
of her community and who volunteers
her services to help those girls. Mrs.
Johnson is to come to the county
every three months and give special I
training to these leaders.
That the leaders are cooperating
with Miss Craig, the home agent, is
shown by the following letter: "Dear I
Miss Gnaig?Would love to be the
local leader for / club. . I think
having those training meetings every
three months is simply splendid. You
can count on me to help in any way 11
can."
Those present for the first meeting {
were Mrs. W. J. Hasty, Mrs. A. A.
West, Mrs. L. D. Broome, Mrs. A; B.
Holland and Misses Lillian Smith and
Louise Hunnicutt. j
Mrs. -Johnson will hold the second I
training meeting the first Saturday
in December.
Edward F. McCrady, assistant secretary
of labor, is quoted as having I
told labor organizations . that unless
the unions settle _their disputes between
themselves and settle them
j quickly, congress will be asked to give
the government power to settle cases
involving Federal buildings. The
matter has been brought to a head
because of a dispute between carpen-1
ters and ironworkers as to which
craft will do certain work in a gov6rhm?nt
building. The contractor for
a building offered to pay one craft to
do the work and 1ft the other gtand J
by Idle on pay if he were only allowed J
to get the work done. Neither wilu
agree to that.
The Federal trade commission has J
recognized officially the executive or- J
der of President Roosevelt, removing
William E. Humphrey as a member
of the board. Mr. Humphrey is a
Republican and has laid the ground-1
work for plans to carry his case to I
the courts, alleging that the president
has no authority to remove him
from office under the law.
