A house to house canvass will be -made on Friday and Saturday, Nov. em|ber 3 and 4, of this week in the hope that .^ifllident funds may be raised to enable this invaluable institution to continue in operation. Uu* nations, large or small, will be giate' fully. received. , , CBASES TO BE FUNNY The dopredationa on peoples' property Tuesday night under the. guise of Hallowe'en pranks should not occur again. It is the same each ye&i and many complaint# have been heard. One automobile owner found that when he started his car he had three punctured tires. Another propeity t owner had the rocks around her cui b~--4ng t^rn up and misplaced, and many more complaints have been heard. Parents should warn their children aguinst those pranks. They cease to .be, funny: UTTERLY INCONGRUOUS Hard times bring out many queer situations. For example, a man may be reported broke and yet he will bo seen in an expensive chauffeur-driven automobile. In his house, he will employ half a dozen servants. He will continue memberships in several clubs. This tfecms utterly incongruous to the man who is managing to live on $500 a year and to whom a balance of $200. in the bank would be a fortune. ' People accustomed to different levels <?f income are unable to under-, stand one another's financial probdems. Jn ^he same office you may lit id six people with incomes of $20,000. $10,000, $1.500 and $1,000. It seems ridiculous that the main earning $20,000 ti year should be the slowest pay of the lot, unci yet that might be the case. Why can't, all earning more than $1,500 a yeai cut their expenses in half and thus begin saving money? Two difficulties confront the men with large incomes: First, they fear that if they lower their living standards they will be unable to collect their incomes. "Front" i-> an important factor .in earning power. Corporations do not pay fat ft.os, to lawyers who live in attics and wear shabby clothes. They should pay on the basis of service, but they don't, and so there-- n<> use aiguing about it. Second, t'hr men with large '-a tiing are'u-uaiiy men with .a'g* obligation-. Many >"f tiu-ni w..u!d like, to get 1 :<1 of tbeir e\p?H.-i\e homes arid apaitmci.t . but are piewnted :r,,m doing - by lea-v*. mortgage(,i inability to tirnl a bu.wt. 1 hc\ are ehained > > commitments. In reviewing their atlairs, -ome < . '-im distVv.-r that t'nev mu-t choose one oi i -a o alternatives: e:ther they must drop from a $20.1)00 scale to a $.>.000 scale, or they might as 'well g" on ,n the hope that everything will turn out all-right in the end. Compared with large and inescapable obliga,ions, the wage of a chauffeur and the upkeep of hn- automobile are trifles. If they can't get rid of the big items, the rich nun figure they might as well continue the little items, and thereby make life bearable. , , Many men who formerly enjo>cd large incomes have been fotce to make a rapid descent to the simplest -^SSdards. They have had no choice. Undoubtedly the majority accept their ,cw situation with a s,Kh of relief l h-casionaUv a victim of the .-????

A vote for repeal is a vote for good, non-poisonous whiskey rather than the dangerou* and poisonous variety for those who will drink anyway. Henry Savage. Camden, S. C., November 2, 11)33. Store Burglarized; Three Thieves Taken The general merchandise store of Hammond and Young at Bethune was burglarized Monday night and. thieves made away temporarily with about $100 worth of goods. " , Their loot did them no good, however/ for Mr. J. A. Young, of the firm, is also magistrate at Bethune, and police in various places were notified and the night policeman at McBee took the thieves off a Seaboard freight train upon its arrival there. All of the stolen articles were recovered and returned, to the owners. Tht; three negroes gave their names as Leon Boyd, of Saluda county; Johnnie Harris, of Columbia; and Lewis Womack, of Georgia. Harris is said to have served time on the Kershaw county chain gang for burglarizing another store at Bethune near the one entered Monday night. All three are held prisoners in the Kershaw county jail to await trial. Urges Attendance At Farley Meeting Chairman Claude N.

THE JOY OF LIVING There is an old man in the city of Greenville by the name of Charles A. David. There has been for some years a familiarity with his charming philosophy of life, through his magazine and newspaper articles.
