WALTBRBOROTO VOTE.
To Determine v Whether Power Plant
Announcement is made that town
council will hold an election soon to
permit the voters of Walterboro to
determine whither or wot the munici
pal light arijd power plant will be sold
to the South Carolina Power company,
of Charleston. Or rather to a .small
portion of the voters, those who have
paid their taxes prior to January 1st,
which is condition precedilnt to hav
ing the right to cast a bhllot in a gen
eral election. .
The question which these voters will
decide is whether or not 'the plant
shall ^continue to be operated by the
town or sold to this larger concern.
The present rate paid by users of
current and power in lyalterboro is
perhaps the highest paid anywhere in
the State. The rate to t>e charged by
the South Carolina Power company
will reducti this at least One-third and
the assurance is give,n that unlimited
power will be available. At least the
capacity of the plant is to be increas
ed at once to care for all demands tiN

the company can bring in high power
lines whteh they say will be within
three years, i/
It is understood that the capacity
of the present plant is taxed at the
present time and that there will be
a shortage if the presnt rate of in
crease ktieps- up, and not only this
but that should there be a break in
the big engine Walterboro would be
in a serious condition. It seems that
the present plant is not, evcai-at the
excessive rate being charged for pow
er, making money fast enough to keep
the plant properly equipped. So it
would seem the* part of wisdom to
sell the plant to a concern having the
financial ability to equip it for pres-
eir.ifc and future needs.
Then the money receiyed from the
sale of the plant might be used to
rutire some large debts recently in
curred in the paving program put
over here. So, not only would the peo
ple be saving in the cost of their
lights and power, but in interest on
large loans. There seems abundant
argument in favor of the sale.—Wal

People Never Partial
to Perforated Coins’
Perforated coins were never In favor
In the United States, though various
efforts were made to popularize them.
The first United States coin with a
perforated center was a gold dollar
issued in 1849, which had a square
hole In the middle of the planchet It
whs the forerunner of the gold dollar
issifed by * the United States mint' in
1849. The coin was engraved, liot
struck from dies. The next United
States? coin with a perforated center
was Issued from the Philadelphia mint
in 1850 and was of the denomination
of 1 cent. It was about the size of
the bronze cent now in use.
At that time the large, old-fashioned
copper cent was in general circulation
hnd the perforated coin received the
name of “ring cent.” The designer
reasoned that by means of the perfora
tion the cent could be distinguished
by touch from the dime. Another per
forated cent issued the same year
showed two rings In the field, with
the words “Cent, one-tenth silver.*'
The reverse showed an olive wreath
around the perforation and the words
“United States of America.” The m^nt
authorities undertook *o design a coin
that would answer all requirements,
and the pieces were struck with both
pierced and perfect centers In- silver,
copper, nickel and composition metal,
six varieties In ail, without counting
the various metals, but none of the
designs was favored by the govern
ment authorities, and consequently-
they were never put In general circu
lation.

Marriage No Light
Ceremony in China
Getting married is complicated bus
iness in China. Anna Louise Strong,
writing In Harper’s Magazine, gives
the following description of Chinese
wedding customs as related to her by
a Chinese student: , . 7
“If a marriage is honorable In
China, the parents of the groom will
pay the money needed. They will send
notes from the groom’s father: ‘On
such a-date my .son will 'marry the
daughter of Mr. So-and-So. Your pres
ence is requested at the feast.’ But it
is worth much totlim, for at the v< wed-
ding, all tyonor i$ shown to this old
man, who will now be a grandfather,
since his son has taken a wife.
j “But if the marriage he without
parents’ consent, then the/ young
folks cannot be at home on their wed
ding day; A prbper, honorable mar
riage—It really cannot 4>e done with
out the parents; otherwise, all is dis
order. There are only two other ways
for young folks. One is to wait and
beseech the parents. Even if they do
. not like the girl, still they love their
son, and If they see him always un-*
happy, refusing to take any other
woman or to give them grandsons, In
tbe'end they will often‘give way.*’
