DOES ITSELF PROUD
Ono of tho Interestlug dallies comIiiK
to our desk is that of tho Sumter
Daily Item Last week, on Wednesday,
It celebrated its forty-fourth anniversary
as ail entrant Into the dally
field At first It started as a fourpage,
handset affair the pages being
not much larger that the size of
a letter head. It has grown along
with Sumter under the guidance of
four generations of the Osteon family
all trained In the newspaper game
ter, Illustrations and the attractions
Sumter has to offer the outside world.
It traces the history of Sumter county
from the lund grunt from the King
of England, when Sumter townslte
was called "Sumtervlllo" and embraced
Sumter, Clarendon and a greater
portion of Leo County.
Distinctively Interesting to the oldtimers
wus the description gathered
from the late N. G. Osteon, a pioneer
In tho printing Industry and the hardships
he endured.
The Sumter Item has kept pace and
ahead of Sumter's progress. Mauy
thousands of extra copies of the edition
were mailed all over tho world
and Sumter will reap great benefits
from It. It was a Job well done.
UNDER COVER OF DARKNE8S
Every right-thinking man who saw
a bunch of scurrilous posters tacked
on electric light poles and other
places Sunday morning were Indignant
It was a vicious attack on
Mayor Durnett Rhett Maybank. of
Charleston, who Is one of the eight
candidates for governor The scurrilous
circulars bore no signature, no
union typographical label, nor any
Imprint to tell from where it emanated
We do not know how much j
truth was in the attack, hilt wo would
hate to think that uuy of the other i
candidates had a part In such
underhanded tactlca. Then, too, many
citizens of Camden received a copy
of the circular bearing a Columbia
postmark without any trace of the
sender We are not particularly Interested
in the t'umlldacy of Mayor
May bank, but we are Kind to know
that friends of the other candidates
who believe In a square and open
deal, pulled these circulars from thp
posts and destroyed them It may
injure Mr Maybank'a candidacy In
I he est nuut Ion *of some people and on
the other hand we believe that true
sportsmen may resent this and cause
many to change As for the letters
mailed out from Columbia, the senders
may yet hear from postal Inspectors.
DO WE WANT A DICTATOR?
Ix>ts of South Carolinians and people
ull over the nation stayed up
late lust Thursday night to listen to
President Roosevelt's address at
Greenville and went to hod wanting
to know "where are we headed?"
Not satisfied with his attack on
Senator George. of Georgia. ul llarnesvllle,
with the Senator sitting on the
platform, he Vame on to Oreenvllle
and made a "hit and run" speech with
u broad Insinuation at Senator Smith,
who had gone there to welcome hint.
Neither Senator George nor Smith
accepted all of the New Deal policies
in their entirety so the president does
not want them back in Washington.
Senator George has Hftid "I accept the
challenge." Senator Smith had already
accepted the challenge.
If South Carolina and Georgia, or
uny other state will have to send 100
per centers" to Washington, why not
cut out the expenses of the senators
and congressmen and turn the whole
Job over to "my friend" Roosevelt?
R008EVELT'S GLOVED STILETTO
Our president Is not a practical
man. He has done much good In certain
lines. It's a pity that he neutralizes
It with so many blunders. His
most fatal and dangerous vagary la
the ambition to make himself dictator.
by stifling the Independence of
the voters, and crushing abler men
than himself, who will not heud the
knee that thrift may follow fawning'
His attack on Senator George
of Georgia is the most glaring and
outrageous perpetuation of unfairness
and injustice that has come to our
attention. He pronounces George a
"scholar and a friend." and then proceeds
to bury his dagger to the hilt
inio (Jeorge's vitals.
Well, may we say. Upon what meat
dot's this our Caesar feed, who lias
grown so great, that In* doth bestride
the world like a Colossus, w hile the j
rest of us walk under his huge legs,
seeking dishonorable graves? I hat

MONEY FROM WOODLAND

Clemsou, Aug. 15.?Tiees, like other
crops, need some help if they ere to

protection against lire, au well
proper cutting, to usaure large yields
at frequent Intervals, said Donald IL
Brewster. forester for the Kxteuslon
service, at u recent forestry meeting
In Georgetown county.
Mr. Brewster told of the work of the
Fxtenslon Service in encouraging farmers
to treul their woodlands as a
crop, und pointed out that ownership
or a tract of productive tliuber can.
hy proper handling, be mude the beat
kind of old age security. He mated
further thut for every dollar paid to
a timber grower for wood the t <>m
m unity benefit a to the exteut of three
to five dollars.
The meeting, held ut Oak Grove
school, wae sponsored by the Southern
Kraft Corporation's Georgetown
mill and the Seaboard Air Line Hallway
to emphasize the need for more
constructive attention to forest lamia
During the meeting there was a pulpwood
cutting demonstration Illustrating

State Forester H. A. Smith and assistants,
Fx tension Forester Brewster,
W. It. Mattoon of the United States
Forest Service, and County Agents
M. M. McCord of Georgetown, and J
11 Harvey of Berkeley cooperated lit
the occasion.
In the pulpwood cutting demonstration
It was shown how any forest owner
could obtain an annual Income
from timber by a system of rotation
cutting.
STORY OF MY CHICKS
This Is my second year as a 4-H
major poultry club member. As I had
used my brooder house before, we
thoroughly cleaned it by scrubbing
with lye water. Pine straw, was put
on the floor for litter. The house Is
twelve feet by fourteen feet with a
tongue ami grooved floor. The front
faces south. There is glass cloth on
the front with an adjustable curtain
lor ventilation and also ventilators
near the roof iu tile back.
The brooder, thermometer, feed hoppers
and waterers were all ready hefore
the chicks came. A day before
they were to come we lit the brooder
so the house would be warm and c m
furtable for them. My two hundred |
Barred Hock chicks came from the
Columbia Hatchery on February ^ j
We drove to Camden and not th* m
from the post off ice that night. 11>>
were put into the brooder house v.'h.
feed and water before them and w re
soon eating contentedly. My daddy
had to help me with them as I was
In school every?day this season.
The water containers and hoppers j
were cleaned each day. Fresh water
was put in twice a day and feed kept
before them all the time. I wire a
week the house was cleaned, old stiaw
removed and fresh litter put in. ! eich
poles were supplied when the chicks
were five weeks old. They were allowed
to run In a yard about three
hundred square feet, planted in rape
for them As they grew they were
given more space. One hundred and
seventeen were sold as broilers, we
used some, and arc keeping sixty pullets.
After deducting the cost of the
chirk*, feed, fuel and all expenses,
I had a good net profit left on them.

Kendalls Look
Sure Winners
Hince publication of the standing*
In the municipal softbali league in
lust week's* Chronicle, the Kendall
Mill gang have tucked four more victories
under their belt and are now
three full games ahead of the second
place Wolves. A defeat of the Wolves
by the Merchant ci'ew in today's game
' w ill oluch the secoud half title for
the Millers.
Should the Wolves lose to the Merchants
in this afternoon's battle, It
is likely that a seven game city title
series between the Kendalls and the
Slnclalrs will begin next Thursday,
August 25, the series being arranged
as best four out of seven games.
Team standings for the second-half
through Weduosday, August 17 were
as follows;
Won Lost Pet
Kendalls id 1 ^09
Wolves . , 5 ^ 667
Ksbos 6 b 466
Siuclulrs . 4 6 400
Merchants 1 9 100
The Weeks Result
Since the lust review of municipal
league games, the sort ball program
hun been featured by some Interesting
games and some that were on the order
of burlesque pastlmlng.
On Thursday, August 11, the Kendalls
nosed out the Kssos 4 to 2 in
a finely played extra Inning fracas.
It was a blowup of the Esso defense
In the extra frame that enabled the
Hornets to cop the game.
On Friday. August 12, Kendalls
staged a merry-go-round at the expense
of the Wolves This who the
gume that had been eagerly looked
forward to by Wolve fans and players
as a win would have tied the Wall
stroet group with the Hornets. An
American Legion ball game at Sumter
proved too tempting to some of
the Wolve players and as a rosult the
battle was a rout, the Mills team winning
16 to 2.
On August 15 the Kendalls won
their third game of this recapitulation
by walloping the Merchants 8 to 2.
On August 16 the Slnclalrs made
merry at the expense of the Kesos?
winning 11 to 1
On August IT the Kendalls spanked
the Essos 7 to 2..
Gets Negroes
As Neighbors
A .".oO-acre estate, opposite the
Roosevelt ancestral holding at Hyde
Park, has been sold to a score of followers
of Father Divine, the negro
| cult leader, so they may set up one
of his numerous "Heavens."
The owner, a long-time neighbor of
the president, has been at odds with
him over the, title. "Krutu Elbow,"
for their rival reality holdings.
The controversy was decided
against the president by his own
mother.
! Rut this did not satisfy the neigh
! bor, for he was also irked by the relief
! policy of the president. Though he
offered 4."> cents an hour for labor, he
I could not get enough men to harvest
his apple crop. He complained that
he could gather only 30.000 bushels
of his .">0.000-bushel apple crop, bemuse
the WPA was outbidding him
on wages.
So he sold out to Father Divine's
negro followers and set them up as
the new neighbors of the aristocratic
Roosevelts .
And then, to rub salt into the president's
wounds, lie gave out a statement
that will be gall and worm-wood
to his long-time neighbor. Said it, in
part:
"1 believe Father Divine's ideas are
more enomlcally sound than Roosevelt's.
Roosevelt gives money not to
work; he caters to the debtors who
won't work. Father Divine refuses
to have anybody with him who has
been on relief, and who has not repaid
the money.
The president, of course, is power
loss to reply.
Rut that is no reason why he (.anno:
gnash his teeth privately. and

no drug was involved, and there was
no check on "claims" however absurd 1

And again you find the safe
road with EDGAR A. BROWN,
a man with an open mind, ready
to meet the problems as they
come, reserving his rights to

good or bad which might come
to South Carolina.
EDGAR A. BROWN wants a
FAIR deal from the New Deal
