GRANDFATHER
CAN NOW READ
A man who was a grandfather before
he learned to read and write is
one of South Carolina's representatives
at the Southern Conference on
Illiteracy in Little Hock, Ark., on
Tuesday of this week, according to an
announcement made by J. H. Hope,
State superintendent of education. The
man is I. L. Brown, an operative in
the Brandon Mill, at Greenville, and
he went with Mr. Hope and Miss Will
Lou Gray, state adult school supervisor,
and others to the Arkansas confpr#?nrA.
Brown learned to read and write in
the adult night schools conducted at
Brandon Mill under the auspices of
the State* department of education.
Ernest Aiken, another Brandon Mill
operative, who learned to read and
write after his discharge from the
army, in which he served several
months in France, is another member
of the South Carolina party.
Brown's Story
Brown tells his own story as follows:
"First of all I was an ignorant
man. I lived in the mountain section
of Greenville county until I was about
nine years of age. Then my parents
moved to a cotton mill -and I went to
work at that age. I never had the
opportunity of going to school until
I was 48 years old, then I entered the
adult school about two years ago. 1
learned to read the Bible.
"I wish it was possible for me tc
tell you what the adult school haf
done for me. Think of a man 4?
yaars old, a grandfather, and coulc
not read and write ,and have learned
n great deal about arithmetic anc

THE HORKY HERALD, OOKWJ
NAVY RUM WAR
URGES LAWYER
Washington.?Whether the American
Navy shall be employed to play
the sleuth on rum runners is now up
to President Harding and his legal
advisers as part of the plan proposed
by the Anti-Saloon League for tightening
up the enforcement of the Volstead
law.
Waynfc B. Wheeler, general counsel
and legislative superintendent of the
lea'gue, went over the matter with the
President today and urged that all
available forces at the disposition of
the Government be instructed to assist
the prohibition unit. He feels
that if the Post Office Department
can use the marines to guard the
mails, the other branches of the Government
can use the navy and the
army too if necessary.
Just how tar the navy can be employed
is expected to become a perplexing
problem. Officials of the Navy
Department do not lean kindly to the
proposition made a few days ago for
Eagle boats to be turned over to supplement
the Coast Guard.
Would Have Naval Lookouts,
i Mr. Wheeler believes naval vessels
' can be sent to observe the movements
' of ships along the coast and report to
? the prohibition officials, if they are
' not actually sent to arrest the smugl
glers. The Coast Guard can then be
5 dispatched to bring the law violators
[ in.
The league is greatly disturbed over
> the increased exports of American
? liquors to Scotland and other counl
tries. It is said that at the present
I time applications are on file in the
I prohibition unit to export 750.000 gal1
Ions of liquor.
Tt is believed these supplies fall int
to the hands of the rum runners and
i are brought back to the United States
i under cover. This is regarded as a
, ruse to get around the tight rules imi
posed on the granting of permits for
i withdrawals.
i The exports are withdrawn to be
J shipped for non-beverage purposes,
1 til** fntal wh{?Vl + n?A
?> nidi uppjIVOVlVlild aic
pending are seven times that for the
first year after prohibition went into
? effect Mr. Wheeler does not underk
stand what use wet countries can have
for non-beverage liquors.
Urges All Co-operation.
He stated after heing closeted with
the President that he urged co-operation
by all Government departments
' that could furnish assistance in enforcing
the law.
'These liquor smugglers on ships of
foreign registry, who defy our laws
? with whiskey on board under the guise
? of ship's stores and supply them to
bootleggers,H Mr. Wheeler said, "arc
the meanest criminals in the smugc
jrljng trade. The increased applicap
tions to export wbislcey to Scotland
1 and supply it to the rum smuggler is
? another situation that needs serk?us
consideration.
' "I am sure the President will do
everything within the law to help nre1
vent this scandal on our shores. There
"lnr<* limitations, of rniirxo. as tn 'wh.it
.lie Government can do, but it has not
^ vet exhausted all the resources at itr
I command."

caught on fire..
H. P. Little got there just in time to
see McCracken come out, yet dazed
with sleep, after the coop nad been
entirely consumed and only a small
heap of debris was left at the spot, to
ask: "What in the world is all this
burning up here anyway?"
The first people on the scent were
M. W. Collins, and Marion A. Wright.
H. P. Little vouches for the statement
that these two were seen ne^ir the
place by the first man who arrived at
the spot ready to fight fire, where
there was then no very hot fire to
fight.
The next question asked, after the
extent of the flames had been seen
and the fact appearing that no great
efforts to save other property need be
put forth, was what had become of
the chickens. It does not appear that
the first men on the scene could leH
what had become of the roosters and
hens, if indeed there had been any
kept inside the roost.
13y some it was said that two heavl
had been saved from the house before
it was all gone up into smoke, while
according to others there had been no
chickens kept in the house. So, there
is no w/iy way of teiling whether or
not the burning of the coop disappointed
a nocturnal chicken festival.
The cause of the fire remains a
mystery, though, of course, there are
conjectures. The train had passed
along that way about two hours before
that. Could it have been a spark
from the engine stack? Some have
argued that it could not have been
caused in that way, because the engine
was a coal burner and would not
give out any sparks. Others hold to
the theory that prowlers had been
around the hen house, and had perhaps
dropped a cigar or cigarette
stub in the grass.
The fire department was rather late
in getting out its equipment. There
was no need for hurry, however, as
the chicken coop was too far away from
all other buildings to make its burning
dangerous. The fire was consuming
nothing except some weeds,
bushes .and grass when the fire en*

YOUNG WOMAN
MARRIED SIX
Only One of This Number
Was any Good She
Says
CONFESSES HER CRIME
Woman Sayg She Loved Her
Soldier Husband Too
. Much
"Yes, T married six of them, but
there was only one of them that "was
any pood at all," was the astonishing
statement made in the First District
court of Judge Cooper by Florence
May Dibble, beautiful twenty-sixyear-old
#arirl of Binghampton, when
asked to plead to a charge of defrauding
the government, in Boston, Mass.
The girl took a soldiers' wife allotment
as the spouse of Percy Adair, of
Goldsboro, N. C., whom she met on a
train in March, 1918, and whom she
married three weeks later at Camp
Wadsworth, Spartanburg. S. C. At
the time, she admits <;he had two living
and undivorced husbands. Two
children had been born from one of
these earlier marriages.
Three More Weddings.
Adair went overseas and in July,
1918, she married again. This romance
was short also, and in December
she wedded far the fifth time. Hev
sixth and last marriage, according to
: her confession, was in 1920.
Pleading guilty to the charge, the
woman says she received allotments
i totaling $190. She restored $30 when
arrested and agreed to make restitution
of the remaining $160.00
"T D1ir\nACA T oil 4- 41^ A
i nu|^;vinc x OJV.VII na vc iw patv tn^
penalty for my rash acts," she stated
when asked by Judge Cooper if she
had anything to say before sentence
was passed. "But' I've paid a whole
lot already. The only one that ever
used me decently was Percy Adair,
and I loved him; loved him with all
my heart and soul," she continued
with tears streaming down her checks.
Loved Him Too Much.
"He went overseas, although I hegped
him not to go: even trie ! to get
Irwn to desert. I pleaded and pleaded
with him, but it was of no use. I
guess I loved him too much, for he
used to scold me for kissinjr hi;7 hands
and the likes of that, and after he
croswed over his wonderful letters
made me brave and kept me straight.
I had never told him about my former
marriages or of the children, and I
made -up my mind that I would.
Protected Self.
"So I wrote him and told him
everything. I never heard from him
Again, your Honor, and as time went
on?well, It just dawned on me that
it didnt* make a whole lot of difference
what became of me. There were
the children to care for and there was
one thing I wouldn't do to raise
money?that 1 could never bring myself
to do. Marriage, although bigamous
marriage, seemed to take the
curse off and supplied me with funds
to , send back home to the children. "
Judge Abruptly Adjourns Court.
Judge Cooper, as the young woman
concluded her story, abruptly adjourned
court, after deferring sentence
until Friday.
o
The new shops of the Buck Motor
Co., in connection with the already
handsome brick building on Laurel
street, have been about completed as
to the main section of the structure,
and makes a handsome. show in that
section of the business quarter.
WHITE MAN NOW
FACING CHARGE
Following a preliminary hearing
before Judge Haselden, at Dillon, v
S. C., Wingate Spivey, a white man, p
29 years of age, was held upon a C
charge of abduction. D. H| Spivey o
and Sarti Stone, held as accessories, p
were dismissed. The girl in the case n
is Myrtle Thompson, 13-year-old n
daughter of G. P. Thompson, of v
Boardman, N. C., says the Dillon c
Herald. n
According to testimony developed ?
at the hearing, Wingate Spivey left
Boardman last Friday, taking with v
him tVi#? lS-vpnr-nhl nf t
Thompson, and made his way toward P
Dillon for the purpose of' getting *
married. He engaged Sam St^ne, n a
transfer driver, to bring them to Dil- *'
Ion, and while passing through Fairmont,
N. C.t picked up D. H. Spivey. a
That was the only connection D. H. a
Spivey had with the alTair.
The quartett were within three J
miles of Dillon when they were overtaken
by the father of the girl and r
Deputy Sheriff O'Berry. The father ?
and O'Berry endeavored to stop the 1
man and the girl, but as they were in J
South Carolina and the warrant had 1
been issued in North Carolina, they 8
had no authority to invoke the aid of (
the law. The party evaded the father *
and the officer and came on to Dillon,
where they were located Friday af- y
ternoon. ^
The father sw^ve out a South Carolina
warrant and had the three men
placed under arrest. Following the '
preliminary trial before Judge Haselden,
Stone and D. H. Spivey were
released, but the principal in the
case, Wingate Spivey, was bound
over to court upon the charge of abduction.
{
The father of the girl says he will ?
ask for requisition papers and take ]
Spivey Ivick to North Carolina where 1
lie will be tried upon the charge of i
abduction. The girl being under 14. <
years of age, Spivey faces a serious i
charge and if convicted is likely to '
serve a lengthy term in the penitentiary.
Thompson took his daughter 1
back home. <
These parties have relatives in 1
Ilorry County. I
