Makes Appeal For
Large Enrollment
McColl,C, July 9.?A call to'the
women of South 'Carolina to place
theiy names upon the enrollment
books, thereby qualifying themselves
to vote in the August primary, was
sounded here by Mrs. Kula Uoper
McColl, woman executive of the Federated
Forces for Temperance and
Law Enforcement in SoutH Carolina,
which organization is conducting the
campaign to keep the state in the dry
columns.
Mrs. McColl, in her appeal, urged
the women of the state to enroll immediately,
pointing out that tax receipts
and registration certificates are
not necessary and that past enrollments
will not suffice, all voters having
to enroll again this summer.
"I wish to urge the women of
South Carolinl~fo>>^h|ce their names
upon the enrollment books immediately
in order to qualify for the
primary on August 28," Mrs. McColl
said, "on which d^te the state will
vote for or against the legalization
of liquor. I appeal to every woman
to prepare to cast a dry vote."
"Results in states that voted wet
last November are appalling; revenue
is not what advocates of liquor said
it would be, and drinking is on the
increase all over the nation," Mrs.
McColl continued, "and I am sure the
women of South Carolinu do not want
similar conditions in this state. The
women can and must play a big part
in preventing our state's putting its
approval on liquor and sanctioning
one of society's greatest evils. The
defined purpose of the liquor interests
is to make the 82 per cent of
our homes not now using wines and
liquors adjuncts to the saloon.
"The enrollment books close Wednesday,
July 24. In the name of better
citizenship, I appeal to you to do
your duty to yourself and your state
by enrolling now and help prevent
the legalization of liquor," Mrs. McColl
concluded.
The Commercial National bank of
Spartanburg opened for business on
Monday with a capital of $150,000 and
a surplus of $16,000. Alfred Moore,
textile executive, is chairman of the
board of directors.

The Old Swimming Hole.
..I paid the "old swimming hole" a
visit a few days ago. The branch
was still there, and the swimming
hole was also there. The man who
lived on the home-place told me that
very little change had taken place
during the past 30 years, but everything
looked mighty small to me.
..1 stood on the protruding rock
where I used to dive from. The distance
from the top of that rock to
the surface of the water had undoubtedly
shrunk up 8 feet, it being
only *bout 3 fetft from one to the
other. X recall that when I first begkn
to dive from that rock it looked
like the water was 'way down yonder,
at least 30 or 40 yards.
..I was the first boy in the crowd
that learned to keep my head under
the water without holding my nose.
11 was also the first kid to learn to
swim on my back. By the way, the
bush where we fellows always hung
out shirts while in a-washing was*
cut down for saw timber about a
year ago.
When we dived off that big rock,
wo, always got either our stummicKS
or our back blistered when we struck
the water, but it doesn't seem tp hurt
folks who do that way now. X. made
a run-and-tumble dive once, and my
head struck an old stump in the bottom
of the pond* and that's the only
way we ever could have gotten that
stump out of our pond?by just such
an accident.
. .We had four or five different
depths in our wash-hole. There was
a point "up to the knees," a little
farther over it was "hip-deep" while
a few steps further on, we found it
was "waist-deep", then came "chindeep,"
and finally we arrived at "over
your head." We swam across that
point with fear and trembling, and
woe unto the boy that got strangled
in the attempt.
..It was "something" to swim from
one end of the pond and back to the
big rock. It was nearly a mile then,
but by actual measurement last week
it was only 17 steps, or about thirty!
yards. When a youngster had reach-!
ed the stage where he could swim
"the test." he was eligible to be
ducked any time, or pushed into the
water backwards, and possibly held
under the water 3 minutes. We all
got scared nigh to death the time we
nearly drowned Jim Eldridge, a little
nigger playmate: we ducked him too
long. These new-fangled concrete
swimming pools ought to be abolished
and nice, muddy, murky washholes
substituted therefor.
MIKE IS ASKING THE GOVERNMENT

' Odd Accidents
Littlo Jean Johnson stood on the
curb in a Maryland city waiting to
cross the street. A door on a passing
truck flew open, struck him on the
head and fractured his skull.
A Pennsylvania!!, Ixjvell Short,
went riding with a friend and- his
face was injured in an accident. He
sued his friend and a sympathetic
jury awarded him damages because
the accident had so affected his tear
ducts they flowed continuously.
(Maybe the jury was' moved by his
tears.)
I Little Harry Merideth, of Delaware,
aged 10, was fatally injured by a window
sash which fell upon his neck as
he was climbing through the kitchen
I window.
It is considered good marksmanship
to bring down your prey with
one shot hut a Washington colored
citizen brought down three men with
a single bullet during a street fight.
A mule, being led by Raleigh Hedrick,
Virginia farmer, was killed by a
stroke of lightning. Hedrick was
merely knocked unconscious.
An impulse to be sociable resulted
fatally for William Abel, 19-year-old
Tennessee lad. Riding on a truck, he
released his hold to wave to somo
girls?and the truck struck a bump,
throwing him through the windshield
of a passing car. ! ]
