governor johnston's mind
changed
At the annual meeting of the postmasters
and carriers association held
in Charleston last week, Governor
Johnston addressed, the joint associations
at a bouquet In litis address
he took occasion to brag on the state,
system of highways as "second to
none In the I nited States " This is
indeed high praise Having been constructeii
under the control and munagi-ment
of that arch Mend, lieu Saw
ver. and the monster criminals, the
stale highway commissioners, who
were so denounced a short while ago
by the governor, we are just wondering
how Mich a wonderful system of
highway.-* could have been built. One
thing is certain not a mile or these
magnificent highways was ever built
with the approval of Governor Johnston
either since he has been governor
or while he was a legislator. We
are glad he lias seen the "light" and
thus acknowledges his error in persecuting
the state highway department
as he did so often and with such
acrimony, even going so far as to call
out troops to stop all highway work
in the state
Maybe now Governor Johnston,
having seen the error of his way, may
be induced to sponsor at the next session
of the legislature?his last?a j

Jr., pharmacist, and Mrs. Alice
Bovven Zeigler. formerly of Spartanburg.

HARVEST LEGUME SEED

discussing the l'J3T Agricultural Con-1

to plan for a surplus of seed, as one
may sell it to those who do not have
a supply. Usually there has been a:

any surplus soil-conserving crop seed.

he stressed because cow peas Improve
the soil and protect the land from soil
erosion, thus assisting in a more economical
production of crops; furnish
a supply of food for the farm; make
a good hay crop; and may provide
an additional income through the sale
of surplus seed."
Mr McCarley especially emphasizes
the value of cow peas because cowpeas
can be harvested readily and because
of their special value as food. He
points out, however, that there are
other summer legume crops equally
as valuable in most ways, and producers
should also be careful to harvest
and preserve the seed of these crops,
since the demand for legume seed has
generally exceeded the supply.

which, like Finney, do not believe the
change's in design will be very exciting?the
emphasis in discussing the
1938 models is on Improved handling
of cars and new safety devlcea.
Several companies, it was said, plan
on following the lead of Oldsmobile
In using automatic transmission. Commercial
usage of the "hill holder," a

in the new models. Studebaker has

Walterboro Woman
Visits Scene of Fall
Stone Mountain, Ga., Aug. 3.? Mrs.
E. J. Witsell, of Walterboro, S. C.,
paid a visit today to the Stone Mountain
site down which she fell 300 feet
August 29, 1879.
She was Emmie Jones then, 9 years
old, of Augusta, Ga. Exploring the
granite mound with her family, she
slipped and rolled. A ledge of rock
broke her drop.
Four hours later she was rescued
by George H. Goldsmith, who eased
down to the lodge on a rope.
"One thing I remember distinctly
was that my new* hat had blown off
and caught on a rock just over the
ledcfr." she smiled today. "I refused |
i<> go back up the mountain with Mr.
Goldsmith until he had finally recovered
my hat."

t
t lintou. N t\. Ahg. 3.?A new market
for rot ton was envisioned here
today as state officials joined with j
this section in celebrating the open j
ing of the Clinton Faison "Cotton '
road."
"Tills dedication not only marks a j
new era in road building, hut It opens
a new rich market for cotton." Governor
Hoey said In an address, which
followed the tour of the motorcade
from Goldsboro through Mount Olive i
and Faison to Clinton.
Governor Hoey spoke also at Goldsboro.
expressing the belief the road
"holds great significance for the farmer."
Superior Court Judge Henry A.
Grady welcomed the visitors to the
dedication, which ended with a barbecue.
J. Albert Von Dohleu. representing
Charleston. S. C.. congratulated
this section and Congressman Graham'
A. Harden, of New Bern, said cotton
road projects would provide a new
outlet for the people.
Governor Frank Murphy, of Michigan.
told the national conference of
state liquor administrators at Mackinac
Lake, Mich., that "the American
conception of decency, morality and
respect of government is far more Important
than a billion dollars worth
of revenue." The governor urged the
administrators to work diligently In
encouraging temperance. "Too much
emphasis altogether has been placed
oil the fact, that liquor produced a billion
dollars In Federal and State
taxes, he said. "This financial factor
is important, of course, but the American
conception of decency and morals
Is far more Important."

THE TYPOGRAPHIC ERROR
The typographic error Is a slippery
thing and shy;
You can hunt till you are dizzy, but
it somehow will get by.
Till the forms are off the presses, it
is strange how still it keeps;
It shrinks down in a corner, and it
never stirs or peeps.
Chat typographic error, too small for
human eyes,
Till the ink is on the paper, when it
grows to mountain size.
The boss, he stares with horror, then
ho g^abs his hair and groans;
The copy reader drops his head upon
his handB and moans.
I he remainder of the issue may be
clean as clean can be?
But that typographic error 1b the only
thing you see.

THE POWER COMPANY FIXED IT
A Hltofi time ugi> the inula press
of th?? DcKalb, Illinois, Chronicle developed
trouble. It seemed that not
enough power could be secured to op
erute the motor, und, uh the Chronicle
Mays editorially, "we were in a devil
of u tlx."
An electrician was called in but
couldn't find the trouble. 80 linally
a call for help waa aent to the' local
private tttility. The Chronicle continuea:
"The roaponao wua quick and
efficient. It looked ua if the whole
force from the power company .waa
in our ahop in no time und ua a reault
of the offorta of the men from
the plunt the trouble wua aoon found
und permanently settled.
"The tlwught that the incident
urouaed in uh wua the difference between
the atJtitude of the private concern,
doing everything in ita power
to please a customer, und what it
would have been if the place hud been
run by a politically controlled crew
with no responsibility to anyone ex!
cept possibly the political boas then

you've probably had the same experience
