THURSDAY. MARCH J9, 1914. lO Bead Dor Advertisements And Profit by Them In writing about CougressmanByrnes the Trinidad (Colo.) Chronicle-News says: "He carried South Carolina cour tesy right into the camp boarding house." We are mighty glad that "Jimmie” gave them the right concep tion of what true South Carolino cour tesy really is. If one had to judge from the press reports sent out from Colum bia, he would very naturally conclude that "there ain’t no sich thing." A Georgia youth was sent to the chMn gang last weak without the alter native of a fine for defaming the good nimf of • girl who had, at her father's command, instructed him to cease pac ing attentions to her. The voters of South Carolina will render their verdict in a very similar case at the polls next August, The Columbia Record is of the opinion that many of the things done by Gover nor Blease “are due to the uncontrol lable- paroxysms to which he has be come subject and that he cannot be re garded as responsible for the strange and incredible things he says and does at such times.” President Wilson has delivered in person several messages to Congress. Governor Blease recently delivered a so-called message to the House of Repre sentatives. But there was as much dif, ference in their utterances as there is in the men themselves. “Villa says he is a self made man. Wonder what kind of material he used?” asks the Johnston News-Monitor. Judg ing from the way he acts we would say the same kind that went in the make-up of many so-called self-made polittciaus in this State. Last week an Aiken County con vict, who had been paroled by Govern or Blease, severely cut a well known white man of the Silverton section. But why should the governor worry? A workman cannot do his best in quarters not adapted to his work. How then may we expect a growing child to do his or her best in uncongenial sur roundings? A good school is one of the best ad vertisements a town can have. Barn well is losing prestige every day that the present building is allowed to stand. The weather man was considerate of this section two days last week, thq ground hog to the contrary notwith standing. m A $25,000 school b "a thing of beauty —almost. lilding would be id joy forever” Well, they have resigned, but not "If there be any virtu£, and if there beany praise, take account of these things.”. St Paul to he Pilippians., r "The Lacedamonian sshoolmaster and governor of children said very well, when he professed that he would bring to pass that the child whom he took into his tuition should joy in honest things, and grieve in those that were foul and dishonest. Than which there cannot possibly be named a more worthy of commendable end of the libral educa tion and bringing uf> of a young youth well descended.” Plutarch’s "Moralia.’ Plutarch, in the work above mention ed tells us that "Diogenes, espying upon a time a boy eating greedily and unmannerly, gaye his master or tutor a good cuff on the ear: and good reason he had so to do, as imputing the fault rather to him, who had not taught, than to the boy, who had not learned better manners.” It is a difficult thing to do to teach the| ‘ youth to keep their bodies “in temper ance, soberness and chastity” unless to the force of the precept there is add ed the example of the elders. “The sons of Eli made themselves vile, and he restrained them not.”' How about it, fathers and moth ers? Philagathos How to Moke Whitewash. There is hardly any one thing that improves the appearance of a place more than the application of a coat of whitewash. For the benefit of those who wish to add dollars to the looks of their town and country property, the following formulas from Farmers Bulle tin No. 474 will prove very valuable: For interior work: Wail ceilings, etc: ^ 1. Slake 62 pounds (1 bushel) quick lime with 15 gallons water. Keep bar rel covered until steam ceases to rise. Stir occassionally to present scorch ing. 2. Two and one-half pounds rye flour. Beat up in one-half gallon cold water then add two gallons boiling water. 3. Two and one-half pounds common rock salt. Dissolve in two and one- half gallons hot water. Mix (2) and (3) pour into (1) and stir till throughly mixed. For exterior work: Buildings, fences, •to.: !. Sixty-two pounds (1 bushel) quick lime. Slake with 12 gallons hot water. 3. Two gallons skimmed milk. Pour (2) into (1,) then add (3) and mix thoroughly. A pound of cheap bar soap dissolved in a gallon of boiling water and added to about five gallons of thick whitewash will give it a gloss like that of oil paint. In the Running for Governor.
