&akes Drunkenness a Crime
The legislature of South Carolina
ihas passed a law making it a misde
meanor to get drunk in this state, and
.anyone being drunk on a public high
way of the state will be subject to a
fine. We think this is a very poor law.
Drunkenness will never be decreased
by any such law, and it will benefit no
one, but work hardships on many.
In the first place, habitual drunken
ness is a disease and it would be just as
sensible to pass a law prohibiting in
sanity, epilepsy and paralysis as one
prohibiting drunkenness.
And who is to be the judge as to
when a man is drunk? Shall a man be
considered not drunk until he is in the
gutter and unable to rise, or shall the
legislature create another "board" to
-decide this question, or shall the arrest
ing officer be the judge? Reader, when
do you consider a man drunk? Ask
several of your neighbors this question
and you will readily see how different
the views are. Then who is to say
whether or not a man is guilty under
this law?
Then the money collected under this
law will entirely come from the poorer
i hardly ever set
man drunk or
drink do their
me other conve
friends or em
.ployes take care of them or take them
home in automobiles or closed carriages,
while the poor devil who has only his
appetite and the price of a pint or quart
drinks his wherever he may happen to
be. If he is caught on the street drink
ing he will be hauled in and fined. The
state will take the money away from
his wife and children, tho the families
f the class of men who will be pun.
1ashed under this law are always in need
Officers who imagine their jobs depen
upon the amount of money they can se
cure out of fines will only be too aler
in arresting men without influentia
friends. After the man sobers up he
will feel bad enough, but after he hae
to dig up money to pay the tipe and be
branded a criminal he will feel worse,
It will quench the last sark of ambitior
mn many a man's heart and cause him tc
"go to the dogs,' when a more k indly rem
edy might fan that' spark into a flame
and bring back to him his manhood and
self-respect, Driving and oppression
wvill never make a better citizen out of
any man, and instead of kicking the
poor devil who is down, we believe the
state of South Carolina would do better
to help him up. Why cannot the legis
lators, at least once in a while, frame a
law that would help the struggling
p~eople instead of eternally passing laws
which get them into trouble?
Lawmalkers is the right word.

That Mr. liruce will remain in Piokens is a
source tf delight to his friends all over Pickens
countfi. Pickens could ill afford to lose him its
a citizen, for since taking up his residence here
about beventeent years ago he has constantly
been identiiled with the best interests of the
town and county, and many people have bone.
Ilted through his friendship. We are all glad
he is going to stay with us.
Laymen's Missionary Convention
Mr. Editor; I have been requeste( to urge
the churches and Sunday schools of Pickens
county to send delegates or representatives to
the great Laymen's Missionary convention to be
held lit Columbia, S. C., February 0 to i9, 1916.
The convention will be held in the Jefferson
hotel auditorium and It is expected that not
less than 3,000 delegates will be present.
The object of the convention is to arouse and
enlist men for world service in the great cause
of missions. It is interdenomItational and will
be full of interest from start to fInish. Some of
the strongest men in the United States as well
as some of the missionaries from the foreign
fields will be there to tell of the world's need.
It will be well worth the time and small ex.
expense of any man to attend. The railroads
will offer reduced rates as will also the hotels
and boarding houses.
I would like for every church in Pickens
county to have at least one representative at
this convention. And let me suggest that every
pastor see to it that his church i6 represented
even though the church helps pay the expenses.
If anyone can possibly go and will send me
his name on a postal card I will be pleased to
furnish hi it a registration card.
