SUBSCRIPTION RATES: One Year fl 60 Six Months * Three Months --—,60 (Strictly in Advance. THURSDAY, NOVEMBER 22, 1928 Caustic Sports Comment. Of course, it’s none of our business and all that, but the sport comment appearing in The State under the cap tion of “Thci Once Under” and signed by “Nom de Guerre” doesn’t seem to be doing collegiate sports in South Carolina nor |he newspaper itself any especial good, judging by the com ment that one hears and reads from alumni and supporters of colleges other than the University of South Carolina, and doubtless many of the latter share the same viewpoint. In his article! in Monday’s issue of The State, Nom de Guerre disavows any intention of trampling on the toes of others and he is probably honest in that,, but it is rather strange that his journalistic endeavors should be so widely misinterpreted. There should be nothing but the friendliest of rivalry btAween State institutions, and when that friendly spirit is jeopardized by the writings of an author in a responsible newspaper, whatever his intentions may be, it would seem the better part of wfshom to call a halt. Frank Barfield, a Citadel cadet, saw fit to reply to Nom de Guerre in a recent issue of “The Bull Dog," The Citadel’s college paper, and the Col umbia writer, after accusing the rtudent of violating “the ninth com mandment, the libel laws and several points of -newspaper <XhicB,” stated that his article which drew Barfield’s fire was intended merely as “a little word of encouragement to a hard- fightmg bunch of boys who had tem porarily gone stale,” and then pro ceed'd to use the following “ethical’’ language about the student-writer: ••There is probably nothing mean in the boy. His only trouble is that when they were passing out the senses of humor and understanding the lad drtfw blanks. So it is not hi* fault that tm the face of the thmg he is doing his damdest to be the first to put 0*. cad in cadet." If such ntuff as that promotes a healthy spirit of friendly rivalry, then we misa our guess. We don’t know who Nom de Guerre is, nor are we personally acquainted with Mr. Harry Hampton, whose writings also appear in The State. "We have been told that they are one and the same person. Be that as it may, one of the “rawest” reports of an athletic event that we have s'en in some time appeared under Mr. Hamp ton’s signature in The State the morning after the Carolina-Citadel game in Orangeburg. The Charles ton institution, its football team, cheering section, band and what-have you all came in for a rather uncalled for roasting at his hands and >t didn’t appeal to Gitadel supporteis as being merely “a little word of mcourage- ment to a hard-fighting bunch of boys who had gone temporarily stale.” The Carolina football team is a hard-fighting, well trained and ex cellently coached bunch of young men, and th£y do not ncied that kind of stuff to bring them out of a slump. They “come back” on their own splendid manhood. Nor is The Citadel the only school that has misinterpreted the so-called witticisms and words of encourage ment of Nom de Guerre. Clemson, ^ Fi^rman and perhaps othtrs have taken umbrage at his remarks. We have written more at length than we intended, but what we have said is nothing more nor less than an # effort to head-off a situation that jnay result from such well-intentioned Wht misguided articles as those ap- pearing in The State. Let us con tinue to have sports comment, but not of the caustic kind. And when, we Rave that neither young Barfield of| The Citadel nor Nom de Guerre of The State can be accused of violating the •kith commandment, the libel laws or of the several polfits of news- ethics. % Let there be —not an armed ; neutrality. truly magnificent production 1 and will be shown at the Vamp Theatre on i lower South Carolina.:.

A local merchant says that a cer tain young man was paid several a few days ago; that he spent wary e*it of it and did not bay a thing that he needed. And yet talk about hard timoe! and farmers.

Furthermore, they agreed that the agriculturtl committees of Congress would put the matter before I Congress during the winter session and that Congress would act favora- i bly. Congressman Fulmer is a mem- | ber of the House Agricultural Com- j mittee. Congress has s«t a precedent for such action by appropriating relief funds for farmers in certain local areas heretofoie, principally in the far Northwest. County farm agents in the four congressional districts will make sur veys of farm conditions eafly in De cember and a report will likely be submitted during the month. “Come Out of The Kitchen.” Tuesday night, November 27th, at eight o’clock in the High School au ditorium the play, “Como Out of The Kitchen,” will be presented by the faculty of Barnwell High School.

And have you seen the newest styles in cards—the modernistic mo tifs in which the Christmas story is told in brightly colored triangles— discs or geometric designs symboliz ing ChrisDnas trees, toys or candles or stars or snow flake? In the old favorite designs the same urge for brighter color results in bigger, bolder cards, although col or fulsiraplicity is the very keynote of this year’s cards. Remembering past seasons when friends failed to receive the card you sent—be sure this hme to write your name and address on the envelope flap It will serve both for a return address and to notify the recipient of your latest address.

So the Step-Ladder Won't Slip Nail a piece of rubber on the bottom of the legs of- your step- ladder and it cannot slip. This has prevented many a painful fall. ♦ ♦ Significant Number Forty is a number that has been regarded as peculiarly significant. The Idea may have originated with readers of the Bible, who notice that Moses was 40 days on the mount, Elijah was fed 40 days by the ravens, the rain of the flood fell 40 days, an other 40 days elapsed before Noah opened the window of the ark, 40 days was the period of embalming. Jonah gave Xlnevab 40 daya to re pent. the Lord fasted 40 days, nhd He was seen 40 days after His resur rection. Old English law alio fea tnred many 40-dsy periods. 13«j ADVERTISE in Th« People-S«ntin«i. Legal Advertisements CITATION NOTICE. State of South Carolina, County of Barnwell.
