There is not a doubt but what
the modem dance was born in a
place of sin and shame, the name
of which we would consider a disgrace
to this page by merely printing
it.
The dance is condemned by all
religious bodies of the people ami
not without sufficient reason. In all
countries on the face of the earth
the dance has had its part to play
in the downfall of people and of
nations.
As once conducted, it might well
be described as & means of pastime
and social pleasure, absolutely without
harm to those who engage in
it; but when multiplied, changed,
denatured as it were, and made into
the antics which now characterize
the dance, it can be nothing short
of the lewd and lustful pleasures
that lead people downward, especially
the young and inexperienced.
Parents also condemn it. whether
they are members of the church or
not, especially those who happen to
have a daughter, or indeed a son, J
whose downward course in morals
was marked by an introduction to
the modern dance hall. Those of
all walks of life who have had much
experience with the effects of the
modern dance are unwilling to paricipate
themselves or allow their
daughters to attend.
The Herald cannot blame the
fathers and mothers of Conway for
taking a decided stand against the
modern dance in Conway. The
modern dance has not yet taken hold
in Conway as it has done in larger
cities and towns of this country.
In the cities are public dance ha/Us
where boys and girls who have never
seen onch other before, meet and act
toward each other as if they had
known one another for all their
lives. They smoke together, eat and
drink together, and then they dance
together. Fathers and mothers are
fighting it there after it is too late.
Fathers and mothers in Conway want
to make the fight in time and it Is
hoped that they will nip the growing
interest in the bud before it
bursts out into a fully grown tree,
which might resist all efforts to
make it die.
Chaperones are nothing except a
good excuse. They never have been.
They never will be. We admit that
it is better to have them, if even
for the excuse. But. they cannot
prevent the evil they were appointed
to look after. As we have just said,
it is better to have an excuse than
to have nothing at all. This is all
there is to the matter of a chaperone.

WASH 1NGTON COMMENT
There are those who cry "Education,
education!" believing that il
is the panacea for all ills, the means
of ending all evils.
There are those who vociferate
"Religion, reiigion!" equally sure
that in the pulpit and its teaching?
are the seeds ot' the millennium, and
that we need but to "believe" to
end all our troubles and solve all
our problems.
1/ll.. *1 1- -

their demand and ask for "religion
in education" or "education in religion."
These are they who want
the Bible taught in public schools;
these are they who insist the pulpit
is a forum for political, sectarian,
scientific, and sociological discussion.
They forget, these enthusiasts, that
an absolute separation of church and
state is an American fundamental.
Exclusive of Sunday, there are 144
hours in the week. In the usual
public schools 30 hours a week is
devoted to education. Why take
from the 30 time to speak the Bible?
Why not take from the 114 hours
not devoted to education, for study
of the Word? What is Sunday for?
For what is a Sunday School ?
Men go to church one, two, three
hours in a week. Why use those
three precious hours to discuss
books, men, politics, wars, crimes,
sex?all the scare-head stuff the
radical "preachers," as opposed to
the sincere minister of God, uses to
"attract" people to the church?
There is a time and a place foi
everything; a time and place for
education, and for religious instruction.
The school is no place to
teach the Bible, or religion; the pulpit
is no place to teach geography
or politics. Leave education to the
school reintroduce religious training
I to the home, give the church a chance
j to do its work and the schools opportunity
for theirs, and we will al!
he better otf, better educated, and
more honestly and sincerely reliir
' ious .
o
NEGRO DEMOCRAT
Bill Godfrey has requested the
Herald to say that he has been appointed
to the position as janitor of
the Horry Industrial School, a position
which the old negro Democrat
has wanted for some time and at
last secured.
Hill is one of the oldest and best
negroes in the State. He has voted
'he Democratic ticket consistently
ever since the oldest citizen can remember.

It is just 99 years since George
Stephenson drove the first train
that had been laid by a pioneei*
British railroad company.

THINK BEFORE YOU LEAP
Are you begging dad to let you
drop out of school this fall and go
to work ? Better stop for afew
minutes and think what it means.
There are thousands of big, successful
men who have risen to their
positions of importance with scarcely
any education. Hut did you know
that a most overwhelming percentage
of those men who have made
iuuih.> Miuiu out aoovc ail
others have heen those who have had
the opportunity of college educations ?
We believe we are right in saying
that a boy's chance for a useful,
forceful life is much greater with
a college education to aid him. If
it is impossible, dig you toes in the
sand and resolve with all your might
to "get there" in spite of this
handicap; but by all means don't deliberately
pass up the opportunity.
You can't afford to. Remember,
there are thousands of boys all ovei
the country who are working their
way through college without a dollar
from home to help them out.
And it is funny, but these fellows
generally make much better grades
and records than those who have
everything served up to them.

Clemson College.?Now is the tinv
to decide what containers will br
used to hold sorghum syrups so tha
these may be obtained before th<
syrup making season begins.
If syrup is made only for hom? |
use, fruit jars, kegs and barrels:
only requirements are that these be
absolutely clean and tight. The
nearer air-tight they are the bettei
the syrup will keep. They must be
thoroughly cleaned and sterlized
with boiling water just before the
i.n put in mem. in usinu:
fruit jars and jugs one should lie
careful to heat them gradually hefore
the hot. syrup is put in.
Sealed gallon and half-gallon tin<
should be used for any syrup that is
to be placed on the market. Syrup
is easier to handle, easier to sell, and
brings a better price put up in thi^
manner, and if it is good syrup, it j
will keep indefinitely. The increase
in price obtained will more than offset
the price of the tins.
The gallon tin containers will co>t
around 12 cents each. They may be
obtained through loral bard
ware dealers or by co-operative orders
through the county agent if
enough farmers wish to use them.

The five Boy Scouts, of Columbia,
who with their Scoutmaster, Charles
E. Jackson, have returned from thei
trip to Washington and various
other points are relating their numer
ous experiences which will give thcr
"something to talk about" for man
days to come. The lads will be th
guests at the Rotary Club luncheon
and each Scout will be given twr
minutes to relate experiences. Th<

hardly know how to begin and the
Rotarians will only get an inkling
of what they saw and did.

MAKES DELIVERY
Columbia.?To T. S. Evans, of
Cheraw, goes the distinction of being
the first cotton grower in South
Carolina to deliver cotton to the
South Carolina Cotton Growers' Cooperative
Association. Mr. Evans
la<t Friday delivered 188 bales of
old cotton to that organization. Delivery
of this cotton wr,s optional
with him under the terms of the
contract, but he stated that he wished
the association to sell the cotton
for him.
"1 believe the organization of the
South Carolina Cotton Growers' Association
means much for the future
welfare of the State, and I am

ucngiueu mat lo me lias come the
privilege of being the first grower
in the State to turn cotton over to
the Association," said Mr. Evans.

Hill F111 it Growers' Association, of
Aberdeen, N. C., one of the largest
co-operatives of the country, and
sold over $100,000 worth of peaches

through that association have convinced
him that the power of cooperative
selling. The Sand Hill Association
sold over $2,000,000 worth
of peaches this year.

figure less than 58 should cause tHo

will he narrow until the
condition report is issued .
While foreign conditions are bad,
reading between the lines, we see
signs of a better demand for cotton
abroad. American mills should take
(>,500,000 bales of the 1921 crop.
If the total yield does not exceed
10,000,000 bales it will be very easy
to dispose of 3,500,000 bales to
Europe, as this is nearly 50 per cent
less than was exported last season.
1 Let us repeat: Don't be scared into
selling much, if any, cotton for less
1 than 25c. Savannah buyers are now
paying 25 to 380 points off October
' for Middling, with dry old crop cotton
bringing a premium.
