OLD AGE PEN8ION8
The following appearing in dully papent
last Friday set many persons
over > "> years of ago to talking
"Under provisions of tin- legislation
now before the house for potion ou
Senate amendments?the Federal government
would begin July 1st paying
u inuxlinum of $lf> monthly to needy
persons over tJ5 yearw of age or to
needy blind, provided the aum Is
matched by the States. For the first
two yearH, however, Htutea without
pension lawH would not hpvo to match
thin Hum, according to tbe bill as
panned by the Senate."
"Needy persons" no doubt will be
the only one* over 6& yearn of age who
will be entitled to old age peualona.
Of course practically everybody
"needH" money, but thone who have'
property or children able to care for
them will receive little connideratlou
at the handH of tbe Government.
About the only persons who can or
may qualify for old age penuionn will
be those who are nubjectn for the poor
llOIIHe.
it in only a question of time until
our local welfare department** will
< eaae the had practice of operating
automohileH, carrying food Htuff, clothing
and HtipplioH to lazy fumilloH out
in the country. Farmera generally
are disgusted, for they know in the
end they will be the* cIuhh required to
puy the bill in increased taxes. Old
age peiiHlonn will nupplant the welfare
work.?Monroe Knquirer.
ONE 8TEP TOWARD NORMAL
The federal authoritien have announced
that direct relief will ntop
In South Carolina with July 1. That
means that Uncle Ham will no longer
hand out money to anybody In this
state except as pay for work.
That iieww will be a shock to some
thousunda of people. To some It will
bring acute distress. But the state
has not provided funds with which to
match federal funds, and so, us in
several other states, Undo Sum declines
to carry the whole load any
longer.
The transitions to new conditions
I will cause some pain and still more
inconvenience. And yet it will result
in much good. It Is bad enough
to haw men working on jobs for the
government that they realize are in
part merely screens to camouflage the
fact ttwit they are recipients t>f public
aid since they have not been able
to 11 lid places for themselves in the
normal, but now sadly deranged,
framework of industry. The net result
of the restriction of federal relief
to those who work will cause many
a man who pretends, or even believes,
that lie cannot find work to discover
that he run find work if he tries hard
enough.
It Is one step toward normal; one
step back toward a stronger individual
and public self-reliance and selfrespect.?

Poisonous Water
Snakes in Our State
Columbia, June 22.--There uro two
kinds of poisonous moccasin snakes
In Houth Carolina, says John A. Crawford,
director of physical education
at the University of South Carolina
and an authority on South Carolina
snakes.
The water moccasin is the only
poisonous water snake In the United
States. It Is sometimes called the
cottonmoutb moccasin because the Inside
of the mouth is white.
The copperhead, or highland moocasln,
Is the first cousin of the water
moccasin. It is sometimes called a
ruttlcsnake pilot because it hibernates
In the same rock crevices with the
rattler. Many people think the copperhead
is the female rattlesnake, hut
this Is untrue, for all rattlesnakes
have rattlt'B.
The venom of these snakes attacks
the red corpuscles In the blood and
cause great swelling.
The coral, or harlequin snake, the
only other species of poisonous snake
in this state, bus neuro toxic poison.
Its venom attacks the nerve centers,
and the victim usually dleii of paralysis.
Ulara Phillips, the "Tiger woman,"
who more than 12 years ago killed
