April 7. 1941 COMMENTS ON MEN AND THINQ8 By Spectator For many months a pleasing voice lias -been heard from W. I. S, every day commenting on political happenIngH, with an Informative and sagac- r lous Interpretation, 1 am thinking off a man whose daily comments were | heard and enjoyed by thousands of us. | I am referring to my friend John | ( authen and his fine public service | over W. I. 8., because I miss him and | bee a u He u peculiarly valuable feature | cannot be continued at the moment. I Through John Cauthen W. I 8. has | been the medium for a contribution to | our public affairs which is beyond all I praise. While speaking of mv friend John I Oaulhen, I am reminded of his faith I in humanity, in spite of a consider-1 able experience as a newspaperman. I When you meet bombastic and pre-1 tentious people, or cheap swindlers, I or Just those who crave the limelight, I as all newspapermen must meet them I In their work, you have to tight to! hold your faith. Things are not what I thoy seem, might bo said by most men I who deal with the ipublic. Suppose I a newspaper should publish the truth, all the truth, about everybody and I every occurrence. Well, being an I editor would become at once a hazard-1 ; ous engagement. Editors would have I to wear broastplatos and carry guns I and knives in every pocket. j The one business which everybody I could run better than the man on the I ; Job is a newspaper. Almost every I man is a "natural-born" newspaper-1 man, except those fellows who aro I paid to run the papers?or so people I I think. Yet, next to the farmer, news-1 I pa perm Oh must have great faith, or I the rough and tumble of the day woujd I I destroy even their illusions. An odd thing about newspapermen I | Is that they remain in the background, I back of the stage, while pushing I everybody else out to the front. I suppose you know the editor of I your County paper. Some editors be- I come widely known because of outside | activities, like my handsome friend I Ben Davies who is, we might call him, I the State Printer, being the executive of the State Committee on Public I Printing, though brother Ben is editor I of two papers in the County regnant I ?(Barnwell)?one paper being pub-1 lished in the City of Barnwell and the J other in the thriving truck center, call-1 ed Wllliston. Of course Bishop I Smoak is known for his Prohibition and other state-wide activities, though I he publishes a paper in Walterborol which jacks only one feature of ( achieving greatness. , Some times an editor makes a name I for himself by being such a hard-1 hitter that we read with glee when he | knocks the tar out of somebody e'.se. I Dr. Ball and Tbe News and Courier I and Dr. Dreher of The Calhoun Times I are such brethren. But a great daily J has a large staff, usually unknown to I the public they serve day after day, I though much of their hard work is done at night, while we sleep. We all I know, at least by name, Dr. W. W. Ball, editor of The News and Courier, I but two high-ups in making that paper I are Thomas P. Lesesne, the Managing Editor, and Thomas Waring, the City Editor. Sometimes I drop in on them I and upset their train of thought, and otherwise spoil the day for them, but I my conscience* rebukes me. Around I the corner from this office Is The I State, with McDavid Horton, the I Editor, and James C. Derieux, Associate Editor. And then a very retiring I Managing Editor, Sam I^atimer. That is almost too much rank for a journal- I silic private, but 1 do venture to in- j trude on the City Editor, John Mont-1 gomery, and still oftener on that long-1 suffering friend and listener to all ( woes, Ralph Crier. Around another 1 comer is The Columbia Record, which Friend Buehnnun nditu nrwl 'T,<*na?e2 ' Mr. Caldwell Withers, the City Editor, Is the one I usually annoy. The most submerged of all newspapermen, or newsmen, are the newgatherers of the great press services. The A. P. (Associated Press) always gets live, able men?and promotes them so fast that they are gone to broader fields before you can say Jack Robinson. Alderman Duncan and Bill Herbert have to bear with me sometimes, though I don't worry them as much as I usel to chase Bill King. Bill went to Hungay to seek safety and peace. __ jUnc/e 7foitc4e/says: fht buy it ^ ? b'cause we wants . de best ^ A >pp|ly Folks are nenally will* [ iM iaf to pay more to get Wm the beet.

Farmers April Guide On Gare of Livestock Reminding busy farmers that spring care of livestock is important, county agent W. 0. MoOarley suggests those pointers; >> Animal Husbandry.?This Is a good month to sell fat hogs, l'lant lllloxl soybeans for hog grazing. Castrate pigs at three to six weeks of ago and use pine tar to control screw worm. Give suckljng sows all they will cat of a well balanced ration. Shear sheep after the last cold spell and dip entire flock immediately after shearing. Castrate beef calves at four to tpn weeks of age, using the "Bur* dlzzo" pincers and thus prevent screw worm infestation. Watch for screw worm cases, Use pine tar on the nhvels of new born animals. Dairying.?Continue Itborul grain ration, to cows in milk especially, lnterplant plenty of corn und soybeans or plant sorghum and soybeans for ensllHge for noxt winter. Provide sufficient acreage for soybean or poavlne hay to furtiish two tons of hay for each mature cow (one-half that for yearling). Seed heavily to hold down grass growth. Seed one-fourth to onehalf acre per milk cow In pear millet ! for summer grazing as a supplement ! to pasture. Keep cows off pasture in early April to give pasture a good start. Poultry.?'Peed chickB liberally a well balanced rution in clean hoppers. If chicks are brooded In a permanent brooder house or on ground whero chicks were 'brooded fast year, move the pullets to clean range shelter as soon as the cockerels are sold for broilers. Select beat cokerels for next year's breeders. Keep old hens laying by providing a laying mash. "Whats the trouble?" "Why don't those fellows get something done?" "Are those fellows stalling for extra pay?" Such questions 1 hear ?very day. They refer to the Legislature I have been thinking about the legislature. What, really Is the trouble? The lack of unifying leadership Is the trouble. 1 know many members of the Hquse and quite a number of Senators. Without any effort I can think of six or eight Senators who enjoy the confidence of the Senate In very large measure. In the House I could name eight or ten members to whom a majority would listen. Assuming, now, that we wish to attend to the public business and not fritter away time, Is It not clear that the influence to bring leaders together must be the Governor? In the power of leadership which la In the Governor's office lies the hope for sound results. The House and Senate are standing apart like two jealous spirits, almost squared off like two boxers, whereas ithe third spirit, and one necessary for accomplishment, Is downstairs, far removed from the whole problem. In a very real sense our legislators respond to the wishes of the people, if the people will speak. You may have all the wisdom of Solomon and the dramatic fervor of Demosthenes, but if a constituent writes against your proposal, his representative will stop to ponder how much, or llttlb, that voter counts in his County. If our people are seriously interested in biennial sessions; or If they appose punitive damages and the intangibles tax, the legislators will reflect on the political influence for or against a measure,, and will be governed by the political factors. Being against a measure, in the sense of disapproving it, is one thing; and being milltantly, politically and effectively against it, is quite another matter. Whenever "any group of citizens stands ready to make Its attitude effective, politically, that group will receive very attentive regard from the lawmakers. Everybody in public life wishes to stand in with the voters; so the voters really rule when they rouse themselves from their lassitude and make their wishes known. . Woatherman, how about it? The calendar says that this is spring. What do you say? Give us a little Inside stuff; will there be any snow in May? Here wo are in April; time to plant "cotton, yet wo sit by the Are. If 1 we plant now the lice will eat the cot- < ton bardaclously out of the field?or will they? Say, what about old Bre'r Boll-Weevil? Did the long winter freeze him out? Or has he gone on roller, eating surplus commodities? Or has he got a Job on the , SanteeCooper? Wo farmers want to get a line on him. It would be much pleasanter to talk about the beauty of nature and the many occasions of good fellowship which we, all, enjoy. Every highway Is a scene of beauty and from the coastal plain to the mountains, through the Pee Dee, or through lower Western Carolina?the woods are bursting Into the glory of Spring. One need not travel far or expensively in South Carolina or Georgia to enjoy scenes of beauty which no art gallery contains. We may stand before a great painting and marvel at the genius of the artist, but a greater beauby, a richer, more resplendent coloring can be had In any part of the South by driving along the highways.

His brother, Sain Folmlng, manager of tho warehouao hero where tho halo has been stored for the last 41 years, is authority for the statement. Hull Fleming lives In Knoree. The 200 pounds of the 77-yoar-old lint is believed to be the oldest cotton in existence. It was picked and ginned by slave labor on tho farm of Hgnry Thompson, great grandfather "of tin* Flemings, In the rrojfcfllll section of I^aurens county.^Hl x Tho bule, origin any bound with ropo that foil away long ago, necessitating re-baling and bugging with, modern steed ties, again has disintegrated to such an extent that the Flemings are thinking of baling it up again. There was a period immediately after the War Between the States when tho bale's original 4a4 pounds would have been worth the same number of United States dollars. The bale became something of a curiosity as its ago Increased and visitors to the warehouse often plucked samples as souvenirs or to show to acquaintances. This sampling brought the weight of tho balo to 2IS pounds in 1930, at a time when the price was ten cents a pound. A fruit jar containing some of tho cotton Is in tho New York cotton exchange. Fleming ban turned down several offers to buy the cotton at many times its market value. PRETTY YOUNG LASS PLUCKS^CLOVER MEN Clover, April 3?She was a rather nice looking young thing. She had pretty eyes and pretty black hair and pretty form and figure and evorything. She had a mellow religious manner and she said she was working for the Kingdom and In the Master's cruise. She represented a church in Kings Mountain, she said. The church was rather weak In members. It was weak In finances, too, and she was only interested in the church and her l>ord. So she said! She told a Clover mechanic that the church was in need of song-booM and the publisher was going to let 'eim have them cheap. The books were the latest Gospel aongs. Tho church 1 had endorsed them. She wanted an advertisement of the mechanic's business on the cover of the book or somewhere. It would only cost $3, and It was for the I>ord, she said. .And the mechanic looked at her and almost believed. It was her eyes and demeanor and demureness or something. He compromised with her by giving her $2, and she said tho I?rd would bless the giver for giving. He doubted whether the I-ord was in on the deal but she looked so sweet and solemn and gracious at^d religious, that he gave his hard earned $2, altho with some doubt and misjcivlng. She tackled another JSWiev citizen nearby and she purred/and she repeated the need of her church In Kings Mountain; and she looked sad and phe looked glad lik<y angels do, lan<f-he bit, too. And down the street she went catching them coining and going?$3 here; $2 there; a quarter there. But the first fellow still had a hunch that something was wrong, especially when he saw her in a huddle with a salesman and heard her asking him about a ride to York or Gastonia or somewhere. He started making Inquiry and he learned she didn't livo in Kings -Mountain and she wasn't authorized by the church she claimed; and the church wasn't figuring on any onnc hnoka with Plnvpr iifla In ' mi Wo learned much more. He learned tftat she was one of those primrose gals of Galetv street, and that she was cafch?, inn 'em In Gastonia and York and Rock Hill and Fort Mill and elsewliore round about. And ho it turned out that she v.as doing right well for herself under the guise of fiod and religion and that all tho fish are not in Catawba river up next to lioyd Gulp's Fresh Air Camp; but that there are sizable llsh in Clover, who can be caught?dependent upon the bait!

THE NEW8PAPERMEN KNOW It is significant that one of the greatest waves of applause at the President's recent speech before the White House Corrospondents' Association came when he said that unnecessary strikes cannot bo toloratod. The Washington new?pai>ormen know better than any other group to what extent lubor racketeering has been interfering with tho defonso program. They know that tho total defense wo aro after can never be attained so long us a few unscrupulous labor leaders seem to have no other ambition than to exploit the emergency to the limit. 1 Honest labor should keop this in mind. Tho man who delays defense through an unjustified strike belongs in the same classification as tho war profiteer. Both are enemies of American security and safety in a world gone mad. 7o Relieve gg Misery of _ A C/^I666 ^^^UQUtaTABLETS.SAIVS.
