The Greenwood Index is one of the
best weekly newspapers published in
this State, and its forty page “Booster
Edition” of last week was a credit both
to the publishers and the city. Its
editorial columns always contain some
thing worth thinking about and its
news colums are well-filled with good
articles.
« , ' s
This being the case,The Peoples takes
it as a compliment that one of our editori
al paratfaphs should be credited to our
esteemed contemporary by the New
berry Herald and News. We remarked
in a recent issue that “if it were not
such a manifest injustice to the aspir-
ante-for offiee, w« would advocate the
formation of a “Society for the Preven-
4
tion of Handshaking.” The Herald
and News (inadvertently, we are sure
charged this against the Index, and
commented as follows:
“There is little doubt that we need
a few more “thou shalt not” laws or
sbieieties. We need to prevent things
and prohibit them—in fact, everything
must be regulated and run by statu
tory enactment or rule. But if you
prevent the thing you mention you will
deprive some very learned gentle
men of haying and using their only
asset. The people love a good hand
shaker, it matters not if he have any
other qualification.”
I
“Governors are cursed because they
will not commute his sentence or par
don him entirely,” says The Hampton
Guardian in commenting On the maud
lin sympathy that is wasted on crimi
nals, especially murderers. Certainly
the people of South Carolina cannot
complain of the present governor for
not pardoning criminal^ when his re
cord shows that some twelve hundred
have received executive clemency. On
the other hand, they are complaining of
haying this horde of convicted crimi
nals, mostly negroes, turned loos* in
their midst.
“The new liquor law in Mississippi,
permits a person to order only one gal
lon of whiskey a month. That ought
to be enough for any man—nearly four
pints a day;” says the editor of the
Newberry Observer. And he a prohi
bitionist, toe. But perhaps they use a
different system of weights and mea
sures in Newberry, which county is the
birth place of stranger things—and
men.
Oh, the nerve of the Barnwell Peo
ple! Listen to this: “The Barnwell
baseball team was robbed of three
games this week by the non-appearance
of the Orangeburg aggregation.”—
Orangeburg Times and Democrat.
Nervy, perhaps, but altogether
true.
“In the spring a young girl’s fancy
lightly turns to thoughts of love” and
seriously considers the perplexing
question of new bonnets and dresses
and slippers and—and—and perqui
sites.
Wonder if John L. McLaurin’s ex
perience with a wild boar, in which
the Senator was forced to climb a tree,
is prophetic of what may happen in
the eoaring eaiBpaigBf

Telephone Saved Child’s Life
One of the children fell into a water tank on
an Alabama farm and was rescued unconscious and
apparently lifeless. The frantic mother rushed to
the telephone and called the doctor six miles away.
He told, her what to do r nd started at once, but
before he arrived the child was out of danger.
The protection of women and children is only
one of the chief values of the telephone on the
farm. -
