Lancaster News Has Birthday With thin issue of The l4incast6r Now#, a liew year begins us wo go into our eighty-eighth year wltii volume No. 1. The l*ancaster Now# wn# a consolidation of three paters ho that under the present name the paper In hut thirty-four yearn of ugo but since it was a continuation of tho lamcaster Ledger which was established, in LSfSli the paper Ih eighty-eight years' old. On September II", The Lancaster Ledger which was edited and managed by Thurlow S. Carter made tho following announcement as to the discontinuance of that paper and the consolidation of tho three papers as The IaincuHtt.M- News: "Sad Indeed is it for us to make tho announcement that the publication of the "Old ledger" will be discontinued after this issue and wo cannot help but feel that the announcement will carry sadness Into every homo throughout tho county. The older citizens, some few of whom have been subscribers since the' first issue, and tho many who have read the paper from childhood will feel as If an old and cheVlshed friend, whoso frequent visits always made them glad has passed away. "The Ledger was established In 1852 and the late Simpson Harper was the first subscriber and the late Kvans Rollings, tho second. Their subscriptions were taken by Mr. Bailey at the old Salem camp ground." "Fifty-three years Is not a short period. Comparatively little Is known' of the history of our county prior to the establishment of The ledger but since that time It forms almost a complete record of the doings and hapIKMiiugs throughout our county. The marriages, death!*, accidents, crimes, misfortunes of each year are all chronicled In our columns. The political conditions, educational advancement and religious growth of ltn people are all there to be found. The patriotism of her sons, their gallau try lit war, iludr fidelity, the noble spirit of her women, their devotion, their iKiwer of endurance are there recorded." in the same issue in which The latncastgr Ledger editor bid adieu U Journalism were also items of inter est to the public. A record of the amount of liquor sold at the two dls poitsarioa at Kershaw and Lancaatei wore given for the previous year. Ii was said that $29,194 were takou li: at Hie Kershaw dlsponsary and $50, 312.75 at Iatncaster. The editor rnadt a plea for tho abolition of tile dispell sury system on which the count) would vote the following week. It was also recorded that a new hank would be started at Wuxhaw and that a new building was couiplet ed at Heath Springs in which W. Ii Twitty would operate a drug store and Mr. Jack Mackoy a market. A report was given of a speech of Prof. I am of Lancaster, a colored | man, who spoke at Port Mill In observing tin* completion of a menuj ment erected by ("apt. H. K. White to I faithful slaves. We have called attention to these last facts in order to show that some history was recorded oven in tho last issue of Tho Old Lancaster Ledger. With such a background The Lancaster News indeed has a historic past. Many changes have occurred since 1852; some changes have taken place since 1905 and ovon quite a few have taken place since 1929 when the present owners took over this paper. It shall be our endeavor to make a worthwhile contribution to tho life of this county in the years to come.

Route No. 1 Needs a New Concrete Bridge Over the Wateree River Hitler's Mother Schooled Him in (greatness ADOLF HITLER, the man whose shadow darkens all Europe today, inherited from his mother and father those traits that make him what he is: a ruthless plunderer, a self-appointed Messiah to lead Germany back to greatness. From his mother, Klara Foelzl, who ran away from home at fifteen and came back a broken and defeated woman ten years later, Hitler inherited his "mission" in life and the will to achieve it. Klara coddled her son, fawned on him, coached him in greatness, sought to hide his phy- j sical weakness (he was a puny child) with an outergrowth of demi-j God arrogance, says Jerry Allen in ' an article, "Directors of Destiny," in the October Good Housekeeping. Alois Hitler, twenty-three years; his wife's senior, despised his son for his weakness. He was tall and powerful and a drinking man, and he never missed a chance to beat and torment Adolf. From his father Hitler learn- 1 I ed what fear and hatred and what force can do. "He was terrified of his father, ..ai-td him for the beatings he received himself and for those his mother suffered," writes Allen. "Yet he saw that the ability to give those beatings, pure force, makes a man boss, even in his own home. And he i has never forgbtten that in boss rule it is force that counts." Hitler was a poor student, he * couldn't concentrate on his studies, i He failed in everything but draw| ing and gymnasium. Klara made excuses that the schools were at fault. I She transferred him from one to another, with no improvement. But . in Adolf's aptitude for drawing, ?he envisioned him a great artist. All artists, she said, were "moonstruck." Adolf was different from other boys, In her estimation. Only once did Klara waver in her belief that Hitler was destined for greatness. That was when ha was ' expelled from school for smoking. Terrified that he might follow in his father's footsteps ? "a man who drank too much, at* too much, , smoked too much"?she worked on < him with such hawk-like attention that soon he was able to resist every temptation. Aa a result. Hitler grew -t up without any close friends, wita out a glr] of his own (his moth*! waa the substitute), without fnH| life. He grew up a loafer. He loved I the soft life. I Hitler was fourteen when W*| father died. Fire years later h?| mother followed.
